Most people can find something to admire about a nice pair… of almost anything. Here’s a pair of Model 10D’s. The “D” is the baddest on the bracelet block right now. Ultra thick and heavy and you’ll need a note from your chiropractor to order one. The 22KT one is the weight of a Yugo and price of a Porsche. Just finished this Sterling one for a friend of ours up in SF, she’s leaving via Fed-X in the morning. I’m almost sad to see her go, but I love to watch her walk away.

Montreal Grand Prix
This last weekend I had the good fortune to experience Formula One in the most grand style; as a guest of my friends at Deans Knight. The Montreal Grand Prix trip is an annual event (interrupted last year by no agreement between this beautiful city & Monsieur Ecclestone) for the DK group, and it’s like no other race weekend. From the moment I arrived Thursday morning it was a never ending parade of food, drink, friends, Ferrari’s, Mercedes, drink and maple syrup. I know I wrote food twice. I think I was too busy “eating” to really capture the glory of the event with my camera. So this gallery may be a bit incohesive, but the weekend was one for the ages. Vintage Formula racing, the Ferrari Challenge and the main event were all incredible. Yes, Lewis won… again, he’s amazing. Adrian ran a great race nabbing 9th, despite a punctured tire, and edging out Michael Schumacher. Any day you’re faster than Schumacher is a day you’re fast.
I’ve heard it said that you can’t polish a turd…
…I’ve even said it myself. But I think we’ve done alright making this place shine. About 5 weeks ago we picked up a modest and somewhat crappy little warehouse in downtown LA. The neighborhood is colorful, the space ample and we’ve got a private parking lot for early evening jam sessions & late night BBQ’s. The inside needed a grenade, but we opted for grinding the floors, stripping the walls and some paint. Now it’s home. We’re up and running, casting and all in full effect.
