Mint sticks?

You’re probably cooler and way more hip than I am, if you are then this is old old news.

I love music and I also love new ideas, not the trash talking magazine, actual things that are fresh, new ways of doing things.

The Mint Chicks have released their latest EP on a specialized 1gb USB stick. The album is pre loaded on the stick along with some band pics and artwork.

Cool huh? I think it’s a nice new touch. Who will follow???

Shipwrecked!

I live in a crappy little flat in Pt Chev, What the house lacks my flatmates, friends and Pink curtains make up. About 6 months ago we had an bangin’ party that nearly brought the house down, seriously our living room floor bounced like a trap for weeks until out homie Joma fixeduplookedsharped that thing. Last Fri night was Round 2, Shipwrecked. The Jury and the Saints filmed their music video there and Kingston wanted in on the fun too. Results of round.2 are another broken floor and a wide circle of Chinese whispers about how bad. Truth be told it was close to shipwrecked but just ended up to be another ill friday night .  Props to the drunk kid who punched my car! See you at the skate park when you sober up broseph.

Alex De Freitas took some dope pics so here you go.

no ‘beached as’ jokes please!

Last week while on a boat trip to the Mercury Islands we found a small beach covered in dead whales - 18 in total I got from a quick finger point and head count. From only about 25m away they just looked like logs on the beach, misshapen and inert objects. We had been told they where there so we knew better. It was very surreal to be honest. Hollie, Duncan and myself were close to speechless while on the beach. It was hard to believe we were surrounded by dead whales. I’d expect the smell to be unbearable there wasn’t really any smell for most of the time. On occasion the wind would sent a pungent stench right to you nose but otherwise free to inspect the carcases freely. No flies, no maggots, not even birds, just slowly decomposing dead whales. It was hard to say how long they had been there, we had heard different stories from different people regarding time frame. Unlike the Colville beachings which were documented these whales didn’t have a chance after beaching themselves on a small bay Isolated Island with 1 resident. Interestingly everyone of the dead whales was a male. I knew this because they had their dudes out. They were a bit bigger than my size 9 foot if you’re wondering. That being said they were also decomposing (see the last photo)
