Hah. I was called "deck" by some hipster friend of mine a few days ago. I'm still not sure what it means, or if I should take it as an insult or compliment. Does your hipster friend have any suggestions on where I can find a good, semi-cheap sports jacket?

Deck is hipster speak for cool, or at least according to The Hipster Handbook by Robert Lanham.

I'll look into the sport jacket issue.

You've got to love a blog that pokes a bit of fun at ol' BHL all the way from California.

Hope Zevon did not force you to read through the complete works of the "new philosopher" though.

I'm slightly puzzled by the "was the consummate hipster", though. Anything I missed in the news lately? Or is he now past the hipster stage maybe?

Today's hipster is a different animal from the one Norman Mailer described decades ago.
