| | | | | 01/30/14 | | The weekend always goes for two. | | | | | | | BABE WATCH | Babe Ruth Lost This. You Found It. | | 1923: Babe Ruth helps Yankees win their first World Series; receives 14-karat-gold pocket watch for doing that. 1923 to 1948: Babe keeps time with said pocket watch. 1988: Watch goes missing; Billy Ocean hits it big. 2014: Watch is recovered and placed up for auction. Today: You notice your pocket is missing a watch. | | | | | | | | | DIVINE COMEDY | Now Playing: Louis CK’s New Old Movie | | Sixteen years ago, Louis CK made a movie. A pretty weird one, actually, starring the likes of Steve Carell and Conan O’Brien. And as of right now, you can download and watch it for the first time since its premiere at Sundance in ’98. Assuming you weren’t at Sundance in ’98. | | | | | | | | | LIP SERVICE | One Lip Balm to Rule Them All | | We’re not here to talk polar vortices. We’re here to... tell you about some really heavy-duty lip balm that was originally designed for the Swedish military. It’s also good for greasing firearms and fending off mosquitoes, and is technically edible. Hopefully you just need it for dry lips, though. | | | | | | | | | CLOTHES CALL | A Sale on Stuff That’s Never on Sale | | Somewhere around the third quarter on Sunday, you’ll think to yourself, “I need some excellent new pants.” At which point you’ll also think: “Imogene + Willie has excellent new pants. And they’re on sale this weekend, which never happens. I should seize this opportunity. Wow, this is quite a monologue.” | | | | | | | | | BETTER WITH AGE | Barrel-Aged Cocktails, Delivered | | What you have here: a few bottles of barrel-aged brandy Manhattans, Sazeracs and other potent adult refreshments that are about to be delivered to your front door. What you have in your pocket: a plastic method of acquiring said refreshments. Hopefully. Because the Internet doesn’t take cash yet. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 900 Broadway, Suite 808 New York, NY 10003 © 2014 UrbanDaddy. All Rights Reserved. | | | | | | |
