what dancing should be...

Simple fact: I love dancing.  I dance at bus stops and on BART platforms while commuting and listening to my headphones.  I often struggle to resist the urge to move when I hear a good beat.  I don't kno exactly what it is about it that brign me so much joy but some of the happiest times in my life took place while I had a private dance party at home: blasting music when no one's around and just rocking out.  My friends and I will often go out and dance just for the sake of dancing....not to feel up on a girl or get some action. 

Dancing is fun.  One needn't be good at dancing...as long as u're loving it and having a good time.  At the same time, if u're truly bad at dancing it can be problematic.  A little while I got into a bit of trouble with a status message relating to how it can be a turnoff when a girl can't dance.  It was based on something specific, but critiquing one's dancing abilities can be a sensitive topic. 

My love of dance is best epitomized by my love of awesome bad dance movies.  They are my favorite genre of movies.  They are my favorite movies.  I hope one day that there will be a random choreographed dance routine in my life.  If so, I will die happy.

Anyway, the video below is what dancing should be all about...innocent fun and having a good time; showing off and respecting the sick moves of others.  Enjoy...

INSTRUMENT of time.


via LimitedHype

A sneak peek at the upcoming Bell & Ross INSTRUMENT BR HERITAGE. With military inspiration and a bit of an old school, classic flair...the unique wristband also sets it off.

Isetta


The Isetta is an old school micro-car...and it was awesome. It still is awesome. Isettas came in different models from different countries, with BWM putting out a popular version in the mid-1950s. Learn more about Isettas here. BWM is said to be bringing the car back as competition with Smart cars in 2010 or 2011.

new old skool

via kanYe West

an ironic take on the mp3 player. it looks like an old skool cassette tape but it's playback is all new skool as it plays mp3. but u get to relive some of that old skool magic, not only in terms of styling but also doing that twist ur finger in the hole thing to fast forward or rewing songs. comes with a case to help aid the classic look.

past time


via uncrate

If you're looking for a unique watch, one most others won't have but aren't really ready to drop 4 or 5 figures on said timepiece, vintage watches are a great look and option. Still a little on the pricey side but you can easily acquire a great accessory for your wrist that is anything but ubiquitous. uncrate ppted for a sweet old school Citizen chrono but I'm personally more of a fan of the above Forstis Spaceman audacieuse. To acquire either of these pieces u'll need to go thru the eBay and looks like the pieces come from Thailand...but uncrate claims to have no problem with the piece they ordered.
