Hits From the Blog…
Collected musings on assorted topics…
I don’t really want to reshoot the Rad Racing entry for our Halloween Costume Guide, but these super-sweet kicks have me, well, kicking myself for not including them from the get-go.
For the record, it should be noted that Cru definitely wears black Chuck Taylors in the film (hi-tops, natch). Just sayin…
Remember Biff, the big, antagonistic lunk from Back to the Future? Apparently, he’s quite the folkie. Check out this HILARIOUS video in which he skewers the cast, the franchise, its devoted fans, and not lastly, himself.
The Mumford tee has been spotted in an episode of Homestar Runner, a series of funny animated shorts that pun on a whole series of pop culture targets, some large and well known, others quite obscure. (Tip of the hat to FIC fan Chris R. for bringing this to our attention.)
Watch the episode in its entirety — 5 minutes at most — here; the Mumford tee makes its appearance about 3/4’s of the way through.
For those keeping score at home, this is actually the second time one of our tees has appeared in animated form.
In other FIC news, the Stephen King Rules tee cracked the front page of Rumplo, a clearinghouse for t-shirts from around the world. Thanks to anyone and everyone that voted for it.
Switching gears, I’m really feelin’ this track (and video) from Cold Cave, a buzzed about new act that traffics in atmospheric electro pop.
Needless to say, it makes me want to dance… effusively.
Adventures in screen-printing: someone effed up… badly.
Lastly, there’s this oxymoronic tee (pic embedded below), which features a split-faced Governator/Terminator advocating for… less gun violence. The official tagline: “Terminate Violence.” Oh, the irony…
One last reminder — we want to see your Halloween photos. Submit a pic of yourself (email address below) in a Found Item-related costume and we’ll post it in this very space. We’ll also be raffling off some prizes, as if you needed additional enticement.

Travis, that is [emphatically] a rad dance number. If the Arnold irony wasn’t killing me, I’d surely be dancing in my chair.

I thought you’d like that track, A. It’s easy on the ears and the rest of the album is solid, as well.
