Public Transportation x Random Thoughts


With the Exelero at the mechanic, I've had no other choice than to take the bus to the office.

This means waking up at the crack of dawn only to get their at the same time if I had left my place 2 hours later.

It also means sitting between to an old mexican dude and a leaky drip next to your seat.


Thoughts arise during these thought-provoking moments:


"Where can this old guy possibly be going?"

"Why did Missy Elliot win best Female rapper over Lil Mama at the BET Awards?"

"Isn't Lil Mama the new Missy Elliot?"


"What's good Keiysha?"



"When will they fix this #$#@ing leak?!"

"Eddie Smurphy u done fucked up. Scary Spice can have my child any time"

"You were robbed on Dancing with the Stars Mel...

ROBBED!!!"

Who's Your Stylist Again?


Check out ya boi T-Pain on some Yin-Yang x Mad Hatter x Bootsy Collins x Sambo steeze last night at the BET Awards...

Who's your stylist again?

Classic Convos - Knifestyles of the Rich and Famous

HER (1:50:14 PM): Botox may do more than diminish wrinkles. A new study suggests that the botulinum toxin -- the active ingredient in the skin treatment -- may move from its injection site to the brain.

ME (1:50:34 PM): HAHAHA

HER (1:52:52 PM): no wonder why everyone is stupid in hollywood

ME (1:53:28 PM): that was WAAAAY before Botox trust me

Marketing 101

Somehow, with a name like that....I can't say I didn't see this one coming....

Stepping into Tomorrow - Jezign Light Up Kicks

I don't know how to feel about these...I low key feel that light up shoes belong in the same catergory as 90s babies who are on that roller-shoe steeze, but with the fashion trends these days, who knows.

From Complex:

It’s been a minute since we saw light-up kicks—think back to the days when everyone was flossing those L.A Gear joints that flickered with every step. But it seems like Jezign, an advanced footwear illumination brand, is trying to make night-friendly kicks hot again. Perfect for after-hours summer balling, the Jezign line is focused around the brand’s most popular silhouette, “The Bubble Cloud”, a technical basketball shoe tricked out with a bright light in the sole. Although basketball sneakers are the bread and butter of the company, Jez also developed a casual collection which they claim is “generating a buzz with fashion-conscious urban consumers and celebrities.” We’re not sure if we’d rock these with our skinny jeans, but there’s a time and place for everything. The shoes are available for $150 at finishline.com Watch the promo video below.





Maybe Moguls really DO wanna get their Billie Jean on and light up the sidewalk when they walk--especially if the kid is not your son...and glowing in the dark while you dunk on a dude wearing mere Jordans must be empowering.

So what do you think Kick Stans...

Would you cop these?

%#$@ You, Mr. West

"Fresh off the plane...FUCK KANYE?"

It seems that Mr West is getting NO love in the Heart of the City in Tennessee at the Bonnaroo Festival.

Graffitti bearing the infamous four letter diatribe by concert goers was apparently a result of His Honorable Lateness'...well lateness.

His cool-as-funk stage set apparently took too long to set up, and Kanye neglected to apologize to his fans.

Get over it I say...you're at a four day festival and you're wasted. Smoke a blunt and get your Glow in the Dark on. It was the best show of the year.

Requiem for a Season Part II - The Thug Haiku

For all of you that missed my comment on Sickamore's Blog, here is a posting of the Thug Haiku of the Laker's loss on Tuesday.


A black cloud
hangs over the city.
Los Angeles...
is devastated.
Oh wait,
thats just ME.
2009 seems like
an eternity away
yet still time
for Bynum to come save us
from Gasol's
Mushy banana
playing-style.
I hope he hits the gym
or
I Will hit him.
Kobe
please
return to glory
or we will trade you
without you even having
to ask
this time.
The flag still flies
from my car's back window.
Oh wait
nevermind.
It fell out this morning
when I rolled down the windows.
The LA heat was stiffling
like Boston's defense
Make me believe again...

AND I WILL BUY ANOTHER ONE.

Requiem for a Season



Unless you've been hiding in a cave, or you are a hospital-ridden Laker-Hater, you missed out on a beatdown...

Calm down all my fellow Laker-Lovers...I know this was a tough L, but...

GAAAAAAAAAAAATTDAMN...39 POINTS??? 39 POINTS?!?!

39 points is worse than any NBA Live skunk. EVER! You'd get your controller revoked after 20. PERIOD.

Maybe because I bleed Purple and Gold, but were all the networks covering the Celtics win in the Finals just a little TOO ready to congratulate them? I knew I smelled something foul...and it smells like bias...

That or David Stern...

"The refs only had 'this' much to do with the outcome of the series."

ABC Puts up a Celtics Win graphic...

IN GAME 5?!?!

The countless photos of The Big 3 and Doc Rivers molesting the Larry O'Brien Trophy on SLIDESHOW throughout Game 6...THAT FAST??? Where was the Kobe & Phil treatment?

Stuart Scott is hawking Celtics Championship shirts after the game for NBA.com?

Moonlighting, are we Stu?

STICK TO BROADCASTING.

And get some #%*&in Visine.


Oh well...KG, Jesus, & Piru made it rain on them hoes like PacMan Jones. I can't even front, I'm happy for them. They are all worthy of a championship, no doubt. PP is MVP. Can't hate.

Maybe he'll finally get some rest...

And a haircut.


All I wanna know is...

What the #@!& Happened to THIS Kobe???


Oh yeah..this...

Gasol, you belong on the JV squad at my High School. Hit the weights in the offseason.

Kobe, you owe us one brother. You owe us BIG.


Boston, we'll see you when Bynum is back.

Jigga What?

"Dame...is that you?"

It has been reported that a Mogul Beef has broken out among Live Nation´s Inc´s top executives:

According to Reuters, the bosses are battling over the concert-promotion company's strategy to reshape the music industry by making big, expensive deals with artists.

Chief Executive Michael Rapino wants to slow the pace of multimillion-dollar deals with artists, while Chairman Michael Cohl wants to accelerate it.

Live Nation’s stock price, which has fallen more than 44% since its first big deal and with the ever changing music industry Rapino wants to play it safe.

Live Nation signed a $120 million deal with Madonna and a $150 million deal with Jay-Z, and more big deals are coming up.
I hope this doesn't stall the RocNation deal that much. The streets are talkin and Jigganaut's Pringles might have to bow before his ex biz partner, Damon Dash...

More on that soon!
