I don't know

Today seemed like one of those days I just felt so fucking tired but then when I got home I was like oh shit I have this, this and this to do and of course wanted to check some stuff online but this latenight business is not going well for me. I need to get way more sleep. Going to bed past 2 am every night is not helping me at all. I mean my objectives of the day might get covered but then I suffer the next day. Oh man and december is such a fucking stressful time of the year. You know just going out on the subways and stuff people act like they want to fight you for nothing. I will try to keep the stress down alot in this holiday season.

If you would've told me.....

Honestly, if you would've told me that in 2008 I would only be on a basketball court three times the whole year I wouldn't have believed it. I first thought I did not have time to ball in the summer but I mean I seemed to make time for alot of other non-important stuff. shit, I mean the last two times I played were pretty good I mean I didn't even feel too out of it just higher turnover numbers but my points were still ok. I still think there is something left in the basement as Rocky would say. I say to Basketball city it is to start my retirement tour. I will be warming up there to get back into a least the type of game shape that can make me feel good over the next year I presume.

Rurouni Oh-oh

I sort of miss the anime Rurouni Kenshin. I feel it never reached its full potential. It started off cool and then really heated up about 30 episodes into the series. The next 20 or 30 episodes were utterly climatic and the top of the line at the time that anime was becoming. IT however really died off once those 30 eps were done. All in all out of 95 episodes, I mean, having so many subpar efforts just does not make it a historic and BEST OF THE BEST anime series. I do still enjoy seeing some parts of the series from time to time. I wish it got its proper send off because the last two episodes send off bullshit just did not cut it. They could've gotten way more in detail like the manga but maybe in Japan they just realize no one cared anymore. Like Enishi's entire band of guys that fought with him in the manga, no where to be found in the OVA anime. All those side fights of interest, Gone. so that was that, Long live Samuari X.

Unleashes powerful evil

Oh man, so I was supposed to go out tonight. This club called BLVD in the city (Bowery area) but I was being a bitch I mean I do have to go to work on sunday but I mean it is 1:37 Am and I am still wide awake. I would've been in a less cheery mood taking public transportation at this hour and there is no express bus from manhattan at this time clearly. I would've enjoyed the free drinks and the spot and the company but I was just chillin : Watched Oregon State get raped by almost 30 points tonight, enjoyed the Knicks game I mean they score 138 points and watched this movie called " Mother of Tears" it was not very good but I sort of wanted to see it since it came out in 07. It stars Asia Argento, a decent looking woman that seems to always be naked in her movies. I can't really recommend it but I guess if you really can't think of anything else to see, be my guest.

Shawty Fly indeed



Yeah this is famous porn star Pinky in here. I had the pleasure of meeting her this past summer. She did look great in person I have to say. I saw her around the Sirius studio building. I talked to her for like 10 mins. I told her I was a big fan. I was lucky and got a really big hug and she let me grab that big ass when I told her how pretty she was. I wish I had my camera on me but unfortunately I did not.

Youtube- Hey its the crackhead edition



Haha

A job here, a job there

Well, I need to finally post a review of something I did for a local Brooklyn Ny newspaper years and years ago: (From summer 1996 to be exact
While more and more people are buying Cd players or stereos and radios with the CD compatibility, Cd sales continue at a healthy pace. A large part of this equation has to do with the Hip/Hop scene, which is in full effect in 1996. The album I will start you off with is Liquid Swords by the GZA/GENIUS. It was released in late 1995. I liked the album alot but I think it is not the best I have heard. The Genius is solo on his new album but gets alot of help from his friends, The Wu-Tang Clan. My favorite songs are Shadowboxing' with Method Man, 4th Chamber with Tony Starks, Killah Priest, and the Rza, Killah Hills 10304, I Gotcha Back and Duel of the Iron Mic. This is a great album for Wu-Tang fans and just an average album for general rap fans. I have gotten alot of positive feedback for the GZA's Liquid Swords. This album has already sold over 70,000 copies in the store as of June 96. All in all, I would give GZA/GENIUS' Liquid Swords three stars out of a possible 4. For now Liquid Swords is the latest Wu/solo project but later in the summer, Tony Starks is going solo with the album Iron Man. (Yeah that for real, I had the scoop too. I had the demo tape the whole summer a full 4 months ahead of the general public Iron Man from meeting a rep from his label)

(Added the reviews from other venues just now)
The Wu-Tang Clan were on top of the Hip/Hop scene in 1994 and now each member just happens to be going solo and developing identities for themselves. Method Man has Tical, Raekwon has his first album Only Built for Cuban Linx, The Old Dirty Bastard has Return to the 36 Chambers, and also the two previously mentioned albums above. Ghostface Killah and others of course appeared on the original album: the Platinum chart-topper Enter the Wu-Tang: The 36 Chambers. This was the best album because all the forces were combined. The original albums are very crucial for the sucessful launch of these solo careers. Now that I am talking about the subject, I will talk about the album. I should mention that my favorite songs off the album happen to be The Mysteries of Chessboxing, C.R.E.A.M, Protect Ya Neck, and Can It Be So Simple. The album overall I will say is a classic. I give it 4 stars for true Hip/Hop greatness.
Another great album (no good or bogus albums so far) that is recently climbing up the charts is The Score by the Fugees. This album is great because it combines rap with classic style of R&B mix with phat beats and slamming poetic lyrics. My favorite songs are Ready or Not, Fu-gee-la, and Killing Me Softly. The second album from the Fugees seems better than the first. The Fugees are moving up the charts at a very rapid pace. They debuted on the Billboard Top 200 at No.7. At the present time, The Fugees are locked in at the Number 2 spot (As of May 6, 1996). The song, Killing Me Softly, is a remake of a Roberta Flack song. Unlike most remakes done today, this one is done perfectly. Fu-gee-la is a song about refugees that are trying to leave for a better life. This is the variety of the music that is the Fugees. I really did like the hit Nappy Headz off the first Fugees album from 1994, that was a real underground sensation. Fugees use the best mix of Hip/Hop and rap lyrics mixed with some of the best sensual singing out there. When I first heard of the Fugees in 1994 (also known as Refugee Camp) I did not generally like them as a whole group but now they would be on a list as one of my favorites. I give The Score three stars out of a possible four for it's originality and fresh quality. Stay tuned for more phat reviews in the future.

PS. I did a few more reviews in that same year but this is the only actual writing that I found that I did, lol

Thinking ahead to 2010, I don't believe that bullshit

Well today is a sad day for me. I am one big NY Knicks fan and of course have found out they traded their two top guns yesterday to clear cap space for the possible arrival of Mr. Lebron James. I am a little ashtonished that the Knicks really feel they can just get Lebron to come to NY like it is nothing. I like the way the team had been going this year. I mean they definitely/maybe could've made playoffs. I really like Zach Randolph. The guy is a beast down low: a big time low post scorer and aggressive rebounder. I think the team could've at least waited till the end of the season to deal this guy. I can tell he is one of those players that is "all about his numbers" he is not really into helping his teammates that much. I don't know all and all I could see myself playing on a team with a guy like that. I was not even happy now that he ends up going to LA. I mean him and Mardy Collins for that little bitch ass Tim Thomas and Cuttino "I can't shoot beyond 18 feet" Mobley. That motherfucker Mobley at least needs to step in more when he shoots here in NY. I don't really mind seeing Crawford go to the West coast either. He did his best here and spent his time doing what he had to do. I like his game for the Golden State offense. I really will miss Randolph here in NY. I did not even get to run into him in a strip club or any of those things. I wish him the best with the Clip Show. I am running with the Las vegas Ballaholics ( updates coming soon) now in an online basketball league that I play with. I will now try to get myself to the Clippers and play with my boy Randolph. That should be fun.

Our alliance is dissolved

It is 2:30 in the fucking AM and I am still awake. I just wanted a little time to write down a few things about this and that. I feel now the whole country is talking about recession I know in the mid to late 80's stuff was kinda like this. People were getting shitted on left and right. Losing they jobs, crime up and all that but it kinda cleared up wow 6 to 7 years later the USA was really in the clear. I personally think the recession has not begun yet now it is just the hey guys "the worst is yet to come" Now it is just about saving money for that rainy day as they say. I just had such a random memory today of probably the best fight I have ever had. It was in the 6th grade and this guy who was a "frenemy" was really getting on my nerves. You know words are exchanged and I was in class with money and I guess I said the equivelant of "Put your money where you mouth is bitch: Don't talk about it, be about it." So the kid stabs me right in my right hand with a pencil. Honestly it did not even hurt that much. I didn't make a sound, yell out of nothing and even swear "OYE I am gonna fucking chop your nuts off and feed them to your cat"...It however was time for the showdown. The big fight we would have that day. I ended up going to the nurses office and all and they just looked at my hand and put some pain reliever on it or something and that was that. It wasn't really bleeding or anything but now I just had this sort of pencil mark stain (which I still have today)
The fight gets under way in the school yard and I mean this kid is bigger than me too but caught beserker rage. Just rushed him and tackle him like shoulder block way and was just lacing him with punches to the face AND then like a hockey fight I kept slamming him into this metal gate. I mean repeatedly too. I started to then get some kidney punches in and some other shots to the midsection and I knew this kid was done. He was still standing but he was out of breath. He was striking me earlier but my rage just absorbed those punches with no effect. I finally was thinking you got my hand now I get your hand. I grabbed his hand and was about to put a huge whole right in it, you know , just come down on this spiked gate type stuff (I even had that "FINISH HIM" mortal kombat like voice in my head) but I saw his legs were like spagetti and he could no longer fight back so I slammed him again right to the gate and just left him there as I walked away. Most of the kids outside where watching and stuff so I felt pretty good about it and was really glad I did not completely fuck up his hand, it really wouldve caused so much beef. All and all, I couldn't say I hated the guy he was just a real dickhead and he always seem to pick on me for something but hey after that it was no extra fight, no real kiss and make up either but he definitely now had respect for me ( He even helped me in some other fights to be honest). Like in the movie Juice where he was just searching for the power and respect of everybody but in the end "GQ" gets all the juice and he didn't want it. That was exactly how I felt.
