Missing Links →
Today’s Urban Daddy newsletter touts these incredibly creepy personal cufflinks, for those egomaniacal idiots strolling the city streets in search of witless prey. “Individually modeled” from pictures of your own choosing, the cufflinks are designed with “incredible realism,” so you can now stare listlessly at your profile for hours, right on your french cuffed...

The Madness Begins →
Yes, today begins March Madness, the frenzied run to the NCAA championship.  Florida isn’t in the tournament this year, so I don’t feel quite as invested, but college basketball is always fun to wach nonetheless.  For those of you with more lax work environments (i.e., my coworkers), you can now stream all 63 2008 NCAA Men’s Bball games live online for free.  Or, for those...

Bloomingdale's + Nylon Mag Present No. 59 Metro
I’m kind of excited to see The Virgins at this Nylon event tonight.  I like the tracks on their MySpace…and free Sushi? Yum.  I’d post the invite but can’t figure out how to not make it take up half my tumblr page….

Prune →
Had brunch here with the fam on Sunday, and must say I was thoroughly disappointed. For all the buzz that surrounds this place, it offers a pretty mediocre offering on Sundays. Slow service and overcooked eggs does not a happy family make.  (There’s a really cute jewelry shop next door, though, and the coffee isn’t bad, so it wasn’t a total loss.) I’m sticking with East...

Cop Accused Of Stealing Hot Dogs Gets Fired →
Proving that real life is much stranger and more hilarious than fiction.  This reminds me of the “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” episode where they steal cop uniforms to intimidate homeless people and  exploit the local hot dog vendor.  Good show.

The “Spitzer Specials”  →
Including “The Spitzer Spritzer” and “Hypocrite’s Delight.”  Just be careful before you swallow…who knows where these drinks have been.

Top Chef Season 4 with a Splash of Bourdain
Top Chef’s fourth season premiered last night with the usual cast of rough-and-tumble characters who bleed stock and bernaise. After seeing some of the dishes these guys churned out, I’m expecting good things. The always entertaining Bourdain made a surprise appearance as guest judge, making me even happier than I already was to finally have some time to sprawl out on the futon. For...

Six-Word Reviews of 763 SXSW Mp3s by Paul Ford →
These are pretty hilarious.  I especially like, “Turn away, Coldplay’s raping Maroon 5,” “Acceptable—if they dress as wizards,” and “Come, sail away with Weezer’s Nintendo.””  I could read these for hours…and good thing, because there’s 763 of them.
