KANYE WEST - “RUNAWAY” (CO-STARRING SELITA EBANKS

Kanye ate me up with this. I love how he's embracing his view of the world in that selfish artist way. He's all about the product being something he loves, and sells you on it by living inside his own creation.

I use.

Extremely talented, and perhaps a bit strange (what's up with the chemical suits?), Italian design group Recession Design has created a whole line of modern furnishings for in and out of the home, and provided all the assembly plans free to download. I'm really digging the pastel palette and overall design layout too. Over 30 projects are available to download as a PDF at their website. Warning: the instruction are in Italian.

A miracle

hi Nathanael

I found your iPhone in a cab last night (actually, it was on the seat when i got out, so thought it was my one. it was only when i got to my hotel room that i realised i had two of them).

At first I looked through your recent calls and tried calling a couple of people to see if they could pass the message on, but got no joy (i wasn't going to leave them voicemails, as that would just have been confusing), but then you got a Facebook message thing, which alerted me to your page / name etc, so looked in your contacts to see if you had your own home number / email address in there. so, here i am.
(i'm only explaining all this is such detail because i didn't want you thinking i just went trawling through your iPhone. i tried as few options as i could, as this is your private stuff and none of my business)

ANYWAY... i'll leave it in an envelope marked for your attention, on the reception of the Holiday Inn Express, 232 W.29th St.

hope you haven't done anything rash and went out and bought a new one.

YouTube Link. You can buy the single on iTunes or Amazon. Follow the band on Twitter, Facebook, or MySpace. Oh, fine, it's a gimmick, but a clever one. And sure beats parking a truck in the middle of a Los Angeles freeway.

(thanks, Teresa Brewer)
