If you’ve been considering how to journal or you simply want to make sure you have one of the best notebooks at your disposal, the Tru Red Composition Notebook is a good solution. It’s 7.5-inches x 9.75-inches and offers 80 sheets of wide-ruled paper. On the front is a black and white design that looks fairly tasteful and won’t steal focus, but you can also choose different color schemes if you want to demonstrate a little personality. At this price, we recommend buying plenty of different colors so you can have one for every different scenario in your life.

There’s plenty of room here for you to write up some notes for work, for class, or simply sketch out some doodles or write down a poem that’s come to you while you’re out and about. Thanks to the wide-ruled spacing, there’s the option to write in larger letters or smaller — whatever works for you. The notebook is sturdy, too, thanks to a case-bound construction that’s strong and durable so it can withstand being tossed into your bag or briefcase.

We’re really keen on the idea of devoting yourself to one project per notebook after you stock up on plenty of them but it’s entirely up to you. One notebook per class sounds a smart bet or, alternatively, you could simply go a little nuts in one and write a little bit of everything.

Whatever your plans, get in quick. With the Tru Red Composition Notebook down to just $0.50, stock is sure to be really limited. Customers are restricted to buying 10 at a time but we can see a lot of people doing this with class heading back soon. Don’t miss out. Hit the buy button now.

Topgolf brings back John Daly to continue to “disrupt” the game
john daly

To the uninitiated, golf can feel like a stuffy game. There is a dress code, there is an etiquette, and you even have to be quiet. At a sporting event. For those of us who love golf (don’t get me wrong, I am a huge fan but believe it is called golf because the other four-letter words are taken), we recognize golf isn’t stuffy as much as it is steeped in tradition. But there has always been one man who shirked the shackles of the tradition and disrupted the game of golf with one of the most immaculate vibes in the sport, John Daly. With his drinking, smoking, wild pants, wilder mouth, and general who-gives-a-sh*t nature, he was everything golf wanted to keep out. Now, the game embraces him and his vibe, and Topgolf brought him in to continue the disruption.

I love the vibe at Topgolf. It’s a place where you can smash a golf ball, listen to music, have a drink, and enjoy yourself with friends and family. That’s my kind of golf. – John Daly

Cigar Lounge Spotlight: The Carnegie Club takes you back to Rat Pack days
Couch, Furniture, Body Part

Three blocks south of Central Park, before you find yourself lost in the hectic environment of Times Square, is a cigar lounge tucked back away from the hustle and bustle. It almost feels like a secret. A place only those in the know are privy to. Of course, if that is the intention, then lovers of this establishment will be coming for me in no time with their pitchforks. I am talking about The Carnegie Club—a cigar lounge sitting on 56th Street between 6th and 7th Avenue. From the moment you walk in, it doesn’t feel like a normal, run-of-the-mill bar. No, this has a New York feel, but a specific kind of New York feel. One that harkens back to the days of Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Sammy Davis Jr. This feels like the Rat Pack days.

Isaac Rouse is our new James Bond…it’s not what you think
Young James Bond

We’re all out here waiting on pins and needles to see who will take on the iconic role of James Bond in Amazon’s newest movie series. All the while, 2026 is just dropping Bond project after Bond project to whet our appetites. From 007: First Light dropping for the gamers in the franchise, to King Zero by Charlie Higson and All In by Dan Jones hitting the bookshelves, to yet another project you get to sink your teeth into, Young Bond: SilverFin.

If the last one sounds familiar to you, then you are a fan of Bond on the page as much as on the screen. First published in 2005, SilverFin follows a young James Bond long before he is recruited by the 00 program. Also written by Charlie Higson, this release is a full cast audio drama set to invade yet another part of your life. And young Isaac Rouse is set to voice our favorite future Bond. And there are a few fun Bond historical connections among the cast as well.
