Clever idea from Honda but one that I could see be very annoying for those living nearby who had to hear the same song over and over again...
From Jalopnik:
This strip of road in Lancaster, California is one of only a handful of roads in the world that will "sing" as you drive over it. The music comes from the noise made by tires passing over a… Continue

My sister Carol has always been the one in our family with the "gift" for crocheting. I myself don't have the patience for it. I saw this book and I thought of her.
From Amazon:
"This unique craft book contains more than 25 patterns for zombies, ninjas, Vikings, vampires, aliens, robots, and even Death himself. Each easy-to-follow pattern is presented… Continue

As much as we love to post on things that make us laugh, a big part of the reason why I love theMET is because it's a place for us to come together and write about people we find inspiring. Maybe they'll be our significant other or our best friend or maybe they'll be a celebrity or tech geek. "Sharing modern day experiences" can encompass so much but at the end of the… Continue
Goodbye Starbucks, Hello Meet! Meet is an innovative new concept in business meeting that is the brainchild of Sara and Marc Schiller. A two-story, 2,500-square-foot SoHo loft has been transformed by the duo, with the help of The Apartment (one of New York’s premier design consultancies), into a creative setting for meetings, conferences, pitches, brainstorming… Continue
If you're like a lot of us here, you probably started your social networking journey on Friendster. Then, you migrated to MySpace, saw the chaotic mess that it became, moved on to Facebook and then decided to join theMET. Somewhere your MySpace account is collecting dust and though you probably check out the latest picture from your hottie friend on Facebook, you… Continue
Before you head out to your Halloween parties, why not swing by Chipotle for a free burrito? What's the catch? You gotta dress up like a burrito. Hint: I found on some sites that you can just wear a foil hat. Genius!
Should be taking place at all locations. 10/31 6p-close.
Lately, with the economy the way it is, we here at theMET have decided that it's time to focus on cheap eats! Sure I still have a few hot spots I'd like to check out (Apple, XIV, Providence, Urasawa, Osteria Mozza) but I've always been a firm believer that good food can come from anywhere. Lately, we've been heading to a supermarket for our… Continue
So we got the Flip camera the other day and I am really impressed with how easy it is to shoot video. No one likes seeing themselves in video (including me) but we figure this would be the next step for us. That way we'll be able to show you small clips of restaurants, hotels, and events! So welcome everyone and see you in video! (This clip will stay in our About… Continue
Thinking about what you want to do after Halloween is over? How about LACMA's new exhibit, Vanity Fair Portraits: Photographs 1913-2008?
What: It's the first major exhibition to bring together the magazine's historic archive of rare vintage prints with its contemporary photographs, on view from October 26, 2008 through March 1, 2009. The… Continue
Ok boys, we've been putting up a lot of posts about hot ladies 'cause you know what...sex sells! But this post is for all you ladies at theMET! Leo's been my boy since Titanic (yes, I am a teeny bopper at heart) and though he's kinda bugging the shit out of me with those "Don't Vote" videos now, he still has my heart! (As do you, Sammy!)
Season opener, Game One, Tuesday Night at the Staples Center. Lakers against the Portland Trail… Continue
Pack up your bags, I know where we're spending the holidays! South Beach anyone? The Mondrian South Beach is opening its doors December 1st with an intro room rate of $195 till February 28, 2009. Why am I excited? Because the man they call the next Philippe Starck, Marcel Wanders, has designed this place so it should be super fabby. (See…
One day we're all going to look back and think, remember when we had to get all of our crappy quality music videos off of YouTube? Well, MTV, glad you're getting your mojo back. Show them… Continue
