A mall in New Zealand will use Barry Manilow songs to get rid of its pesky mall rats. Anthony, darling, I sense a whole musical Return of the King/New Zealand mall/Peter Jackson shops for another damn purple Izod trifecta coming into play.
Pantone matched sneakers. It's a killer idea, I agree. But um, $125 sneakers? This is what you call "California casual"? For $20 I can buy a pair of white Keds knockoffs and a big ol' Pantone marker from Aaron Bros, if you get my drift. Now THAT'S casual.

John Hodgman hates 'meh'. He and my 12 year old must be in cahoots. Fine. You know what? FINE. From now on, 'meh' is out; 'cahoots' is in.
And for my brother: Saturday Morning Watchmen
That Saturday Morning Watchmen is hilarious!

I think a far more sensible campaign would be one to encourage mature, responsible tax-paying and imcoming earning adults to congregate at the mall and do EXACTLY WHAT THE KIDS ARE DOING. The sight of a graying, "mature" adult engaged in foul-mouthed vandalism and public intoxication would de-Rat that mall in record time. Particularly if they could in fact get Peter Jackson to appear as a "celebrity hoodie."
