Just a t-shirt that's connected to every person in the globe! Whether you're a skateboarder, or a hip-hop head... Coming from an era where we live thru art in the form of expression and feeling. I'm the one that makes that connection!

SHOTS FIRED!!.......

Yea... And I mean literally!!

So evidently there was an assassination attempt on President Obama.... Crazy right?!... But nah... Here's the kicker. They're saying that the REPUBLICANS may even be responsible... (Word... That's how ya'll wanna play?!). But I mean seriously... I doubt that the Republicans had anything to do with it. Why you ask?... Think about it... I'm pretty sure even they know that the windows in the White House are BULLETPROOF!!!.... Duh!

So let's scratch that.... So Shout Out to Oscar Ramiro Ortega-Hernandez!!... ((Tilt ya "DUNCE" hat playa))

Now I had to enlighten my people on this.

Well about a group of about a dozen millionaires marched to Capitol Hill and asked to push for the expiration of the Bush Tax Cuts Bill. Yup.... They want to pay more taxes ((I don't see any billionaires commanding the same thing tho.... I wonder why))... Among those millionaires was one of the actors from the HBO series "The Sopranos" Ms. Edie Falco (Tony's wife Carmela). Glad to see SOMEONE is on our side!!


The millionaires want Congress to allow the tax cuts passed during the George W. Bush administration to expire. Some want higher taxes generally.
They planned to push lawmakers to reject any deal that the so-called super committee delivers that doesn't raise taxes on millionaires. The 12-lawmaker panel has until next Wednesday to agree on $1.2 trillion in savings over the next 10 years or risk automatic spending cuts.


Dope sh!t right?!

Well that's it for today folks... Until next time

NBA Lockout Continues.... And the Holiday Season Has Returned!!

So let me get right to this....

What the f*ck is up with the NBA players and owners STILL not coming to an agreement with new contracts?? Now they're saying there may not be a 2011-2012 NBA Season... Ya'll buggin!! The players and owners been beefing for some time now. I'm not the one to choose sides on whats fair and whats not... But at the end of the day... The NBA is a CAREER... Not just for players... but everyone! Everyone is affected by this lock-out and people lively hood is at stake. Bad enough the country is struggling with debt. Now because of the lockout... There's a lot of people suffering!

((Sorry.... I am a man of the PEOPLE!!... lol))

But on a lighter note..

The holiday season has returned!! And man- o-man.... I'm excited!! Ready for Thanksgiving to bust down some fried turkey, sweet potato pie, candied yams...... and BAKED MACARONI AND CHEESE!! (Some of you call it "Macaroni Pie".... where is the crust tho??)) Then BLACK FRIDAY... I'm trying to cop a nice 55" Flat screen.... But it ain't worth my life tho! lol So I'll just get some minor things for my self and start my Christmas shopping! But there's nothing like having a hearty meal with the family full of laughter... Then rounding the shopaholics up to go shopping in 20 degree weather ((You don't feel it after a few cups of spiked apple cider))... Good times!!

Well that's it for today folks... Until next time!!
