Russell Brand, Jonah Hill and Puffy resurrect the rock star myth
Have you seen Get Him to the Greek? If you haven’t young lassie, you need to get on that ASAP — it’s one of the funniest movies of 2010, and was much more unpredictable than you’d think. Sure there were the hilarious requisite party scenes, but the movie had a lot more depth than expected […]

Writing is as writing does
The continuing saga of one girl’s plight with unemployment…(read vol I, vol II, vol III, vol IV, vol V, vol VI, vol VII and vol. VIII) Last week my dad gave me some career/life advice. It went something like this: Dad: Honey, I’m real proud of your writing. Me: Thanks dad! Dad: How’s the job […]

Arguably the perfect pair of sunglasses
Quite simply, no matter how in-fashion or out-of-fashion they are, Ray-Ban Aviators will always be the definitive sunglasses for me.

Now the Eizo Pin-up Calendar 2010 comes along and takes things to an […]

Boston’s own CNCPT boutique just got their hands on some, the […]

The Elf forgives the faults in lieu of the fun
First, I’m not claiming to be an unbiased movie reviewer here – I admit my love of the first Clash of the Titans has fully influenced my impression of this new one. It brought out the little girl in me and I pretty much couldn’t stop smiling throughout the movie, intellectually knowing that I was […]

The Elf goes back to her childhood to celebrate a classic
How can I express my deep love of Clash of the Titans? The kitschy Ray Harryhousen Clash of the Titans with the mechanical owl and the silly SFX (I admit Pegasus flying through the sky looks pretty silly, in a beautiful sort of way) and weird jump cuts and Harry Hamlin’s big, fat pre-Botox-era lips?
