SMH @ some people...

HIP HOP


NOT HIP HOP

Get my drift?

Lies...

Why does no one tell the truth? Why is no one blunt? Why do people tell you bare-faced lies just to make you feel good? What does it gain? You're told all those lies to only get cocky over something that doesn't EXIST and then you're put back down by someone who's blunt.

I think it's a lot kinder to tell the truth rather than making people live a lie.

Just a rant...

Wtf ?

I had to post this.

I'm at my boy David house party with my boy Mike. David has his ex there. David introduces me and Mike to his ex and she says, "are you guys Puerto Rican? I can tell by the fitteds. All Puerto Ricans wear fitteds and J's".

W T F ....................

She wins the wtf of the week award.

Cat fight

Mayweather - De La Hoya.

My favorite is Mayweather (Speed, athleticism, natural talent, self-belief, youth).

My selection is De La Hoya (Weight, power, fan support, big fight experience). Boxing is still one of my favorite of all sports....It's just so damn hard to get access to.

I like UFC but it's kinda hard to keep up with all the other mixed martial art leagues and fighters. But UFC has it's holes. I hate the phony validity it tries to gain...Anything that has Rogan as a blow by blow analyst can't be credible. But it's growing in popularity. Because once upon a time people were able to see the special nuances in sport. Baseball and boxing (pugilism) were big time sports. Big time gambling attractions to the mob...those were the days (that I never lived in).

When is the fight? Cinco de Mayo. May 5th....Can't wait. Aribaaa!!

Skittles Rabbit

Beware what you trade your skittles for.

Fantasy League

Yes, I've become a fantasy league loser.

It started with the 07' Tournament Pick'EM. I didn't win but college basketball is not an easy sport to predict, there are upsets all the time that you dont see coming.

Now I'm working on my baseball fantasy league(4th place I think but it's still a longgggg way to go).

Football will be my next fantasy endeavor.

It's funny how we pre-judge things...end up giving it a try...then realize, "eh...it's not so bad".

Secret Society?

So I get a letter in the mail today from this John Finn guy. I was about to throw it away until I read this,"Radames Cruz, please forgive us, but we have just taken a closer look at your profile. It turns out you're more special than any of us imagine!" Ok...What profile? How'd you get my work address? Special? Me, really? =P

Then he continues on, "Radames, please keep what I tell you secret , because this information is confidential. These words are meant for you only. He goes on about his "Secret Society" and how he wants me in and promises all the worlds secrets and glory. Eh...

I love Google. I found out that this is known as the Nouveau Tech Society Scam. Crap. I was looking forward to joining a secret society.

Starburst Commercial

Hilarious.

We need a Borders in Opa Locka!!

Ok. I felt like reading about a week and a half ago.

A friend of mine suggested I read, "House of Leaves".

I was having a hard time following until I realized that that's what the author is trying to do, disorient me.

For example, in the chapter about labyrinths, you get so twisted up and confused trying to follow all the footnotes, footnotes inside footnotes, switchbacks, flip-forwards, and text that is literally shaped like a maze. It gives the reader a feeling of confusion, desperation, disorientation...it helps you relate to the character. Good shit.

Fighting Over Religion...Pointless?

I think it's funny that religion is such a controversial topic. Millions of people are killed because of religion of all things.

In the end, you cannot fully PROVE that your religion is right. There is arguably no valid physical proof that any religion existed. But that's the beauty of it - religion does not NEED any physical proof to exist; all it needs is belief.

I could easily claim that every religion is wrong, but at the same time, every religion is right.

No sense in having an arguement about it, because you're never going to have a full conclusion to who is right and who isn't. Anyways, that's my 2 cents

PS: Ironically the fact that the existence of a God cannot be proven or disproven has been both the reason the concept has lasted so long, and the one of the main counter arguements for atheists to use against it, including their application of the concept to the wonderful flying teapot/spagetti monster/pink unicorn/whatever..

I quit BET

I usually watch Freestyle Friday (if i'm home) to see if anyone interesting is battling on 106 and Park. My boy Lux has been going at it for the past few weeks slaughtering his competition. So I'm watching last night and this horse shit comes on right before the battle:

I quit BET. I'll just look for the freestyles through youtube from now on.


All this VT hype is bullshit

Of course I think it's sad that 33 people are dead. No one deserves to die when you're that young and in the way it was done.

However...

This shit is fuckin world wide and on the news constantly. Government leaders across the world are "shocked and saddened" at these 33 deaths. Bush is offering prayers, schools and churches all kinds of organizations nationwide are offering prayers and condolences.

This is great that so many people care. But what about all the other people dying and dead across the world? There's genocide and massacres happening all over the world, and yet everyone seems to give a shit about this one.

What about Darfur? The Armenian Genocide? Genocides and massacres in general?

What about everyone else who died? Husbands who kill their wives? Wives who kill their children? Drunk drivers? Accidental shooting? Gangs? Suicides? Nurses who strangle their patients in nursing homes? Soldiers raping and killing the women and children of their host country? People dying from hunger? The 1000 people that were killed in Somalia by government backed troops? Israel strangling the life out of Palestinians everyday with weapons funded by the US?

People are killed one by one everyday. Do you, the same people who is attending any memorial or posting any black ribbon on your car or website, really give a fuck the rest of the year about anyone else dying?

I sure don't, and I couldn't give two shits about this either. Unless you've been shot or know someone who was, you're all dirty brainwashed self righteous hypocrites. Some of you are only lying to yourselves....
