Spray On Condom

o_O
Yes they are quite serious.....

iTAMPON

I really wish I could have been a fly on the wall in the marketing dept. meeting when they approved the name of this product.

Marketing exec. : Hey I think I got it!

Steve Jobs: Ok let's hear it. What are we gonna call this new cutting edge piece of technology from Apple

M.E. : Ok so it's its a tablet or a pad right?

Steve: Yeah its a miracle of engineering a touchscreen tablet, with an ereader

M.E. : And we have a good run going with out i themed product names right?

Steve: Absolutely we have cornered the clever name market iPod, iPhone, iTouch we are so creative

M.E. : Ok here it is....... THE NEW DEVICE WILL BE CALLED THE iPAD!

Steve: THAT'S GENIUS!!! I LOVE IT!!!


Janitor: iPad....that sounds like a dam electronic tampon


I have no allegiance to any electronics conglomerate I am really just not a fan of having my intelligence insulted as a consumer, and Apple has made a habit of dishing out underhanded compliments to our intelligence for the past few years. Don't take my word for it though. I have a well worded response from my favorite technology correspondent....Adolf Hitler!

The World Famous Tony Williams: Finding Dakota Grey

























If you have not ever heard the name I am sure that you have heard the voice. He has been featured on numerous Kanye West tracks singing back up vocals, and most recently has been featured on Jay-Z's A Star Is Born. His mixtape is a wonderful potpourri of R&B flavor and Hip-Hop flare. Genius production mixed with Tony's own unique voice make every track worth listening, and with the refreshing mix of skits a well put together mix-tape is born.

Tony Williams - Nightmares



And in line with my theme of collaborative greatness I present the trailer for the upcoming remake of the classic film "Clash Of The Titans" I am thoroughly excited!

Poem: Me Preguntas Por Que (You Ask Why)

You asked me why and I had no words for you whatsoever
No witty retorts, no poetics response, nothing even close to clever
You asked me why and it was if someone had muted my voice
thats when I agreed to write, i mean i didn't have any choice
You asked me why and I tried my best to come up with a few true causes
however everytime I put the pen to the pad all i came up with were pauses
You asked me why and I had to really think about it for quite some time
Not because I didn't know but my reasons to me seemed about as solid as slime
You asked me why and it has been on my mind ever single day since
I have been striving with all my might to come up with what makes sense
You asked me why and the brainstorm began to reach hurricane status
the thoughts flooded my mind my notebook my only floating apparatus
You asked me why and It came to my like a sudden rush of blood to my head
I felt a new sense of enlightenment felt so alive I had to have been dead
You asked me why and the answer is mostly because you simply exist
a relentless force of nature, an act of God I had no chance to resist
You asked me why and I learned its because you lift me above the sky
You are my joy, my laughter, my confidence so I don't have to be shy
You asked me why and I remembered you keep my head from hanging low
you are the reason I breathe, the air in the lungs, you are every breath i blow
You asked why and truth be told its partly cause I get to be me when you're around
I am unrestrained when in your presence I am set free truly unbound
You asked me why and I can finally say I totally know for certain no doubt
its that you satisfy my mental, emotional and physical, completely inside out
You asked me why I love you and this is as far as this space will let me go on
See to completely answer I would need a pen that can write on the horizon
I would take that magic sky writing pen and give my greatest college try
But I could never complete my task with out first getting a wider sky
Me Preguntas Por Que? (You ask why?)
Porque Lo Hago (Because I do)

Poem: Colletion Agency

This letter is addressed to none other than you yourself
Read it don't just cast it aside in bin, drawer or on shelf
this is an important document straight from a collection agency
we have called emailed hell we even texted with much frequency
but you have chosen to use third party methods to respond to us
used middle men strange tactics and sent smoke signals. what a fuss!
this note is nothing more than an attempt to collect an over due debt
no payment plan is available only a full payment can serve to offset
the amount you have accumulated as past and overdue charges
if your payment history was a career it would be El Debarge's
It had some consistency early on but very quickly went away
in other words you seemed to be willing but now you don't wanna pay
we have tried too many times to offer payment situations that could fit
your budget your needs your situation we really used all our wit
All of that is in the past now we cant afford to leave this one unresolved
a promise we make to you that once payment is received all will be absolved
we just want what is due to our agency nothing more nothing less
if we acquire these assets we assure you no further stress
Now if you have forgotten we have no trouble reminding you of the debit you owe
realize that it started off small but time is a hill and debt a ball of snow
so as time went on what you owe has had time to grow and multiply exponentially
we must accept some of the blame we thought you would get to it eventually
before you freak,no worries what you owe will not get you convicted of any crime
But this letter is your last chance to respond to your debt of MAJOR FACE TIME
This has been the collection agency and we sincerely sign off now
hopefully our next conversation will be when we are standing brow to brow

Happy Birthday to J.Ivy

This next piece entitled "Dear Father" is the one that inspired me to write again

Tuesday's Taboo: The Pseudo Relationship and Cheating

Talking, Dating, Kickin It, Goin Together, and Cheating

Ok first let me apologize Tuesday got away from me I was ridiculously busy all day, so I am addressing Tuesdays Taboo on Wednesday yeah I know once again I apologize.

I am not sure at what point in urban history this phrase "Talking" was introduced. I only want to know the exact date so I can mark it as the end of conventional sense, and the beginning of collective coonery. I having been raised under an English language tyrant never had the opportunity to stay current on urban vernacular. Hell I am convinced I still don't know what this phrase means beyond actually speaking, something that has caused me problems with people who have forgotten that the word had a meaning before it was lent to it's urban meaning. I guess my biggest issue with it, is that like most urban terms it is ambiguous and subjective. There are no defined parameters, or set protocols when one is "talkin" to someone. From what I gather it simply means that you are spending time with a person and having regular phone based conversations with them. It appears that at some point phone communication with a person of the opposite was deemed a sign of something going on. However it would appear that none of these situations are exclusive, but if someone violates the "sanctity" of them it is a problem. It seems like noone ever wants to talk about how silly this all is. Noone wants to be tied down in a relationship anymore but we want an exclusive pseudo-relationship situation. It makes no sense at all. I am old school, dating is a scene. You can "date" several people because dating just means going on dates. After dating a person for a while then you make a commitment to exclusivity. At which point you are in a committed relationship. Noone says these things anymore, they are too defined. We would rather hide behind an "It's Complicated" relationship status. If there is no real commitment to exclusivity there is no such thing as cheating. My mother says that if you are not married there is no such thing as cheating. I won't go that far but it's ridiculous what constitutes cheating nowadays. Trust is the issue, and until people make the decision to put effort into trusting we will continue to have baboon relationships where we flip out and go nuts if someone is breathing near our partner.....

p.s. Trust is not built when things seems right. when things are strange, or unpleasent, uncertain, or difficult, that is when trust is truly built.

XXL Freshman Class of 2010

"The new breed of hustlers includes: Roc Nation’s first signee J. Cole, gangsta rap up-and-comer Nipsey Hu$$le, newly-minted Asylum lyricist Pill, 1017 Brick Squad member OJ Da Juiceman, indie-sensation Wiz Khalifa, G.O.O.D. music’s own Big Sean, underground favorite Fashawn, Gary, Indiana rep Freddie Gibbs, West Coast phenom Jay Rock and the latest addition to the Atlantic roster, Donnis." XXL Mag. Via 2Dope Boyz

In my opinion one of the weaker classes in my opinion very top heavy with a large drop off after that.


Random Rant

"The ability to let that which truly doesn't matter, slide" This is a quote from (spoiler alert) the Super-Ego alternate Tyler Durden played by Brad Pitt in the movie Fight Club. Not familiar? Ok how about this one? "Don't sweat the small stuff" These quotes are basically imploring us as people to not make a bigger deal out of things than need to be made. If something is minor, lets leave it that way. Lets not dwell on it, lets not fester in it, lets not amplify, or exaggerate it. Let us let those things which are minor issues just slide. We even have a phrase in the english language for such occurrences. "No Sweat" This phrase makes it so simple to express that one is not stressing over a situation. I said all of this to preface a story...

On Sunday 2/28/10 while in Orlando preparing to hit the road back to Miami again me and my Uncle, who was driving the Penske moving truck we were in. We were pulling out of a really tight parking spot and "nicked" a guys car, a Nissan 350z to be specific. He ran up and stopped us by beating on my window, and screaming. "YOU HIT MY CAR, THANKS ALOT!" Having not felt the familiar jolt of making legitimate impact with an automobile I jumped out to asses the damage. Like i said a scrape at best, but definitely not a "hit". We explain that we have insurance and he explains that he has to call the cops to get a report. He tells the truth....no one is hurt, the car has no major damage, it is still drivable, and we are still on the scene and cooperating. Now during the next 90 minutes we "wipe away" the dust to reveal the damage(which I will post for you to judge) which i felt was minimal. We sat and waited until the sun went down on us, i even took aboout a 30 minute nap. The guy then calls the cops back and is told. "sorry we only have one car in that are and it is called to an emergency so we can't come." The guy is crushed. We exchange info and we leave. Thanks prick for wasting 1.5hrs of my life and making me not get home in time to catch 'How To Make It In America"! Ok got that off my chest now take a look at what all of that was about... SMH


MEDIA MONDAYS

Two selections here that I think follow a common theme. Comebacks. A lot of people feel like Ludacris went away from who he "really" was when he dropped his last album, but he is back in his old form with How Low. The second is the triumphant return of one of the pillars of fear in american movie histor Freddy Kreuger in this trailer for the new remake of the Nightmare On Elm Street. Listen closely during the preview to see if you can tell where you know Freddy's voice from.
