Date Night w/ N'East Style: Jaws (Double Feature)
Jaws
If you don't know the story by now, Date Night was conceived last year when I stumbled across Christine's post on The Men of Jaws and came up with the idea to do a collaboration around great movies with great style. After the exchange of a few emails and tweets, Date Night was born and it's been a blast ever since. So to celebrate the success of our little project, we decided to do Jaws this week as a special Double Feature (giving you two looks in one post).

Letters of Note
Thanks to Manifold Destiny's post this morning, I discovered a cool site that publishes inspiring correspondents called Letters of Note. I decided to submit one of my own and now amongst letters from JFK and Kirk Vonnegut, a note from Sen Joe Biden to a little 8th grader can be used to hopefully inspire others.
