Notebooks are a big deal for us. They’re essential to our daily life. A notebook captures ideas, records meetings, you name it, everything. They’re also important from a record keeping perspective even years after we write in them. We’re not religious when it comes to the type of notebook, we […]
When you’re getting into watch collecting it starts with getting an automatic watch. The only issue is that automatic watches are pricey, most decent ones start around $1,000. We know of a few watches that are worthy of collecting, and under $200. Seriously. These watches come from Seiko and while […]
I’m past 25% of the #3for31 Challenge and couldn’t be more thrilled! I’m tired, very tired. Most marathon training plans call for 5 days of running per week, so when I’m at nearly double that, my body is going to feel the pain. If I’ve learned anything about this challenge […]
You know when you’re a kid and you say “My dad is cooler that yours”? I can honestly say, my dad is cooler than yours, probably cooler than me. My ukulele playing, booze drinking (Mostly wine, cheap scotch, and sometimes margaritas) surfer (Of 40+ years) father is the epitome of […]
Japan is a land of many things, but one piece of food completely surprised me, gyoza. Dumplings, mini bags of deliciousness, whatever you want to call them are officially, “Gyoza” in Japan. Gyozas in the states are half-moon shaped dumplings, 2-3 inches long, filled with meat and vegetables, but in […]
Tsukiji Fish Market is THE fish market in Tokyo. The one and only place where tourists will wait over 2 hours for sushi in the morning, where all chefs get their fresh fish, and oddly enough, where I eat guts at. I’ve shit on the Tsukiji Fish Market which wasn’t […]
Astoria is one of the weirdest, yet amazing neighborhoods in New York. The apartments are fairly cheap, close to the city, it is pretty safe, minus drunken assholes on the weekend. Historically a Greek neighborhood, it’s becoming a melting pot of cultures. Although, what’s weird about Astoria is it’s still […]
Eight days of running is no joke. 5 miles on day 8 and I’m beat, I’m dead tired. The weather isn’t helping, but that’s the point, getting out there and running in the winter. It’s not the dead of winter yet, so I shouldn’t complain, but it’s damn cold. 40 […]
Jumpers or sweaters is the focal point of fashion this winter. T-shirts and button ups were the main piece of clothing in the summer and even the fall, but because of the weather, sweaters are in. Everyone needs a coat, but that sweater is going to be the most worn […]
At DG, we love clocks, watches, and anything that tells time. We use our phones as alarm clocks, but we also have an actual clock. Clocks are great to have for a variety of reasons, they look good on your nightstand/mantel, they tell time, and they keep you away from […]
It’s winter, it’s cold and when can’t you use another jacket. When I first came to NYC from California I binge shopped on wool peacoats. That was a great idea and they worked with business attire, but during the harsh winter months with freezing rain, sleet, snow, and wind they […]
#3for31 has been an amazing way to kickstart my day or end it on a high note. December is a month of glorious food, gifts, and cold temperatures, not prime training months. Today was the end of day 7, nearly 25% through and my legs haven’t become tired yet. To […]
