The Week That Was…

January 10th, 2010 Leave a comment Go to comments

The big news last week in BMX was Rob-o was giving his first full interview about Cult and it would show up on The Come Up.  And it did and, the question everyone was dying to hear the answer to – why did Robbie run screaming from the S&M World Domination Headquarters and Money Minting Machine – was answered with…

Hold on, let me get this right…

No fucking comment.

Well, that cleared that right up.

Meanwhile Ian Schwartz decided to quit riding and become a farmer.  I actually get that.  I know it’s hard for some people to understand, but riding bicycles isn’t the most awesomest thing in the world for every body for all of their lives, especially if it’s your job.  Who hasn’t want to quit their job and find something more rewarding? I’ll say this to anybody, you should only ride as much and as hard as is fun for you. It always surprises me how many people have a hard time with that.

Of course, the real news of the week is this.

That’s a brand new, Polaroid camera folks.  Thanks to the work of The Impossible Project new Polaroid film is coming soon, so Polaroid has decided to get back in the game announcing a new model in either metallic silver or woodgrain at CES.  While I realize that you can do much to simulate the look of Polaroids via digital manipulation, you can also masturbate.  In both cases it’s not the same.  Plus, you want a conversation starter, pull out an instant camera.

Even though I have a Polaroid (I had two, but that’s a whole ‘nuther story involving a social experiment gone terribly wrong) I’m happy to see these. [via Gizmodo]
