LEGO is launching the Architect series of the Architecture line with two new sets based on Frank Lloyd Wright’s most recognizable buildings, the Solomon R Guggenheim Museum and “Fallingwater”.

More details from the press release here.

I think the “Fallingwater” set looks pretty true to the original but the Guggenheim didn’t translate well into LEGO.

Nebb eyeglasses by Moscot.

This chunky, rectangular Henry Kissinger-esque style frame is raw, aggressive and in your face — just like a real New Yorker.

Got a friend who is a doodler/aspiring graffiti artist? Get them the Walls Notebook. It’s a sketchbook with 160 pages of pristine New York walls, waiting to be tagged with writing, drawings, and doodles during those moments of inspiration. $16.95.

The “fatty dog” at Fatty Crab in uptown NY - a banh mi (Vietnamese sandwich) made with homemade sausage, picked chilies, and radishes. From a NY Times review of the restaurant.

Justin Timberlake on the May 9 episode of Saturday Night Live.

The guy has been rocking in all his skits both as host and surprise guest. If you haven’t seen the Motherlover song with Adam Samberg, you owe it to yourself to check it out.

I won’t hide it, I’ve got a mancrush on Daniel Craig as James Bond.

Check out this and other photos from behind-the-scenes shots on the set of Quantum of Solace.

Neil Patrick Harris on the January 10, 2009 episode of Saturday Night Live.

I think this will be a popular one. His Barney Stinson character on How I Met Your Mother notwithstanding, he just seems like an awesome, fun guy to have as a friend.

You can see the other SNL portrait collages here.

I’m a bit behind on the collages of the Saturday Night Live guest portraits but I’m ready to catch up.

This one is for Alec Baldwin from this season’s Valentine’s Day episode. The Valentine heart was expected but the Citizen Kane and Godfather homages must have been fun to do.

If you believe Google searches are an accurate indicator of human behavior, then girls are 3 times more likely to be unsure of whether a guy likes them than the other way around (7.14 million results vs 2.35 million results). Unfortunately, guys are completely clueless about how to talk to girls (140 million results).

Inspired by Ken Jennings’ post about fun with Google auto-complete.
