When I first read this story, I thought it was a joke, but apparently it isn’t. Bono actually did play his own music too loudly one day and a die-hard fan ended up recording it and then leaking it online.

The tracks are said to come off of the upcoming U2 album entitled No Line on the Horizon which is set to be released sometime this year in November.

There’s no doubt that the leak is of poor quality, but at least you get to hear it before everybody else, right? The leaked tracks are reportedly “Sexy Boots”, “Moment of Surrender”, and “For Your Love”.

Because the Brooklyn Blitz 2008 sounds like it’d be a lot of fun. Click on the image for a larger version where you can read all of the info. Do I need to mention also that it’s FREE? :)

It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything from Superdry. I certainly miss being surrounded by it day in and day out. I wish they would open a Superdry store in New York. I’m no business man, but I don’t see why it would be a bad idea to open one up. I feel like people in NYC would love the quality and style that comes off of the design studios in the UK (that’s where Superdry originates from).

Anyway, I think these have been out for a while, but I haven’t really taken a good look at them until today. These are the Superdry Passenger Sunglasses and they are very much in the same style as Ray-Ban Wayfarer sunglasses or Oakley Frogskins. It’s a classic look that’s always in style and seems to be getting hot again.

The Passenger Sunglasses are matte black with frosted lenses and go for about $93 USD. I want a pair.

Prestige Imports, an exotic car dealer in Miami, Florida, commissioned this white Lamborghini Gallardo to be drawn all over using black Sharpie permanent markers. The one-of-a-kind Lamborghini Gallardo was first drawn on with actual Sharpie markers and then coated with a clear protectant finish.

The result of 2 weeks of work is certainly turning heads not only in South Florida but also everywhere else that this car just happens to turn up while on tour. With the exception of the Lamborghini Reventon and the Countach, I think this particular Lamborghini beats out all other Lamborghini vehicles in terms of looks.

I was watching the 100-meter butterfly last night and I seriously thought Michael Phelps was going to get silver. For just about the entire race, Phelps was trailing Milorad Cavic (representing Serbia) and JUST at the last split second, Phelps took one final stroke and beat out Cavic by 1 one-hundredths of a second. That’s .01 seconds! The race was by far the most exciting race I’ve seen in this year’s Olympics.

The final time for Phelps in the 100-meter butterfly was 50.58 seconds. Cavic received a time of 50.59 seconds for the same race. At the moment, Michael Phelps ties the record for most gold medals won in one single Olympics. He currently holds 7 gold medals and is going for his 8th tonight at 10:58PM ET in the 4×100 medley relay.

Sports Illustrated has a frame-by-frame sequence of photos showing just how far back Phelps was before he made his last stroke and won the gold title.

This is my new favorite website. Mygazines is the place to go to if you want to read popular (and some not-so-popular) magazines without buying them or borrowing them from a friend. The community at Mygazines shares, uploads, and archives relatively hi-res scans of nearly every page in a magazine (including advertisements).

Sign up for an account at Mygazines and you can rate, store, and collect magazines and articles that you like. This is good for when you want to go back to an article that you found useful or interesting without having to go through a physical library of publications. You can also add “subscriptions” to let Mygazines notify you of when a new magazine for a certain topic is uploaded. That way you can read it as soon as it becomes available. It’s easy and there’s no sweating involved!

Just to give you an example of the quality of the scans, check out the example taken from the July 2008 New York Magazine Eat Cheap issue.

I’d say that this website is worth bookmarking. You never know when you might miss an issue!
