Summer is here!

Ah summer. The best time of the year for almost every student in America. Cookouts, barbecues, parties, trips to the beach or lake, camping, etc. the list goes on. Some people I know refuse to wear shorts even on the hottest days. Maybe its their legs or they're afraid something's going to crawl up and bite them in the behind. Whatever their fear, I think most of them just can't find the right ones. Luckily, there are Dickies. Yes, I said Dickies, the work wear brand beloved by construction and blue collar workers everywhere. Yes, those same Dickies that stereotype 90's gangbangers wore.


They make shorts too you know. I currently own 3 pairs and they've lasted for YEARS. Not only that, they're pretty cheap (although the price went up since they've become popular). So, go ahead and stop being the sweaty guy in the corner and get some damn shorts. It's 100 degrees outside!


On sale for only $19.99

World Music Moment: Hamza El Din

Once in a while, during my random internet wandering, I come across some stuff that I think more people should be exposed to. Hamza El Din is one of those. According to Wikipedia, Hamza El Din, "was a Nubian composer, oud player, tar player, and vocalist." He was born in 1929 in Southern Egypt (Nubia) and died in 2006. R.I.P.
