The Real Thing Summer 2009

I'm digging these limited edition Coca-Cola can designs for Summer 2009, not exactly sure who's responsible for them yet...

Nice.

Thinking About Three

Ok, tomorrow is the 3rd Year Anniversary of That's Right, which has got me thinking about the number three...

According to Michael Eck, in our minds we break concepts into three parts to understand whatever it is we are thinking about. We use threes to define systems. We use the third or middle point with regard to the extremes to define a point of view.

Yadda yadda yadda.

If that's a little too deep for you at the moment, it is for me, here's 3 of my favorite tracks by The Sandals from one of my favorite movies, Bruce Brown's Endless Summer.

Whether you're looking for the perfect wave or the perfect parking spot, you'll dig Lonely Road by The Sandals from the official 1964 Endless Summer soundtrack.

And the intro to this one makes a perfect ringtone for all your party buds, in fact, the Pope even has this killer Sandals gem, 6-Pak! in his Vatican Togo Party Playlist...

And, because the most interesting things always seem to come in sets of threes, like waves, holiday weekend days and Canadian rock bands, here's one more from the Sandals, the tropical-spy meets beach-party ditty Jet Black.

And if you're in need of any more fresh audio, Click Hear!

Stay Tuned Y'all!

A Visual History of Summer

Ah Summer...

While surfing for some vintage summer images I found a site called Square America. They've got some truly awesome amature photos from the first sixty summers of the 20th century featuring bathing beauties and brawny beefcake, sun, surf, and sand.

I just love the documentary feel and especially the unintentional crops and blurs of these images.

This above shot is from the 40's.

Grab yourself an ice cream or a popsicle, step back in time and check out the rest over at: Square America.

Have a great Summer!

That's Right,
