Second to none

BY: Mark Hancock I mean, really, what’s the fun in that? Plus, it creates the opportunity for awkward moments when you show up at a social function wearing the same outfit as someone else. That’s an experience you only want to have once. For me, it was New Year’s Eve 2007. I felt confident in […]

Bead adieu

Without delving too deeply into the history and belief structures behind them, malas are basically used as an aide in meditation. As I’m an avid yogini, one aspect of my practice includes not bending, balancing or moving. In fact, a big part of yoga is staying perfectly still. For an extroverted over-committer like myself, that’s […]

Smoked out

The e-cig can be charged by USB. That’s right; it can be charged. I know this because I got extremely curious after several friends touted the product and I noticed a growing number of e-cig shops popping up across the metro. So one day I stopped into Vapor King (3506 N. Classen Blvd.; 528- 2808) […]

Blown away

And no, it has nothing to do with a Scarface scenario or a … well, you know (and don’t pretend that you don’t). It’s better, actually. While a shopping column on where to get gutter glitter locally would most certainly increase my gangsta street cred, I’m relatively sure it would result in an Orange is […]

Packed up

There are most certainly perks. Cereal for dinner, for example. Not having a bedtime is a selling point, for sure. Having a bank account is cool, especially when it has money in it. During school days of yesteryear, early rising and mandatory classes got in the way for me a lot. But something that couldn’t […]
