Apple Pie Charts
The New York Times posted a pretty fair review of Mint last week. Although, I appreciate reviews of my favorite products, what really drew me to this articles was the humorous and quite literal pie chart seen above.

The Pickup
I just got back from my European vacation, where I spent ten glorious days bouncing from Germany to Austria and then Sweden. I didn’t get to shop much in Frankfurt or Vienna, I was too drunk and it was too beautiful, respectively. But I managed to snag these awesome Cheap Monday sunglasses in […]
