Does it get any better?

Marvel vs. Capcom 3

2010-04-22T01:28:00.000-07:00

It's about time they released this. I'm really hoping they keep the same formula and don't stray too much from the original blueprint. Anyone that knows me knows I'm a beast at this game and will bet 50 you can't see my trio of Akuma, Storm and (the black) Zangeif.

ahhh good ol' Too $hort

Get your jaws ready to drop.

When I was in Kindergarden my dad let me watch the original Predator flick along with Full Metal Jacket. Needless to say they have been 2 of my all time favorites.After a slew of failed attempts to bring my boy (no not Arnold or Kubrick) back I think they've finally got the right idea (it helps L. Fish is in it). Check the trailer

Taking sand to the next level

I don't know how I ran across this, but I did. Her name is Kseniya Simonova, she takes sand to a whole nother level.

The Beatles 3000

Is this how music will be remembered?

EWWWWW

This is by far the most grotesque thing I've ever seen

Quote of the day

2010-01-25T13:52:00.000-08:00

Society is commonly too cheap. We meet at very short intervals, not having had time to acquire any new value for each other. We meet at meals three times a day, and give each other a new taste of that old musty cheese that we are.

-Henry David Thoreau

For some reason I've been fascinated with hawks lately.

unearthed

2010-01-18T07:11:00.001-08:00

As most of you might know I've been off the radar, don't think your man's been sleeping though. We've got some things cooking in my kitchen slash studio and I'm not just talking sweet potato cheese cakes.

I needed those and didn't even know

If you're a real movie connoisseur you might need to check out Mahogany. It's some real old school ish, Billy D. was a foo in it, the soundtrack is halfway too.

Flies!

2009-11-02T11:05:00.001-08:00

I didn't even know they got down like that. But since they do I'm about to start directing bug porn.

Freedom Project

2009-10-31T18:39:00.000-07:00

One of my favorite artists, Katsuhiro Otomo got commissioned by Cup Noodle for this small anime series called "Freedom Project". It's full of clever ad placements and ploys to make you want to eat the extremely tastey microwaveable dish you see imbued all across this animation. Check it out, although all the audio is in Japanese it's still nice to watch, and if you understand the native tongue things are even better.

Ciao.

A stunning revelation

2009-10-04T21:25:00.001-07:00

You can't be serious.... I'm working on my tee off as we speak.

Fun Times

2009-09-29T23:35:00.000-07:00

I had a moment to reflect on a field trip I took back in 9th grade.On the way home we stopped at a bootleg seafood spot, which had a record store next door. So, instead of getting the cod combo, I borrowed 4 bucks from the homie to buy Redman's Muddy Waters album. It was soooo worth it. I bumped this cut like 18 times in a row, and damn near ran down my batteries on it. But luckily the girl next to me had feel asleep and I was able to swap coppertop's with her.

You should know by now how much I`m into good eats, art, and music, here's the skinny... Aesop from Living Legends is having a bday bbq, if you're in the Fresno area you should come celebrate and grab a plate.

World Famous for a Reason...

No matter where you're from, no matter where you're at, no matter who your auntie is... You haven't had Soul Food until you've visited L.A. and came to the original House of Yard Bird and Waffles. Now, I've had this dish all over but nothing compares to the masterpiece Rosco's cranks out. Big portions for big appetites, the freshest customer service period, the highlight had to be when the waitress said "Don't be shy, tell momma what cha'll want" And I can honestly say, for the 1st time in my life a restaurant felt like home.

Books and things you should buy

2009-09-18T13:11:00.000-07:00

Go ahead and check out the homie Mike Wagner. He's got a fresh new book if you're into hot art it's definately something you need on that coffee table.

Wait...

2009-09-14T05:18:00.001-07:00

I was looking through my sketch book and found this...

It doesn't get any better than this.

2009-09-08T12:01:00.001-07:00

If you have a Marie Calendar's in your area you've gotta grab one of these. Its that odd Kahlua Cream Cheese boy. But the thing is... Make sure you call and see if they have any left, or else you might find yourself on a dummy mission. Oh yeah, stay away from the tuna melt.

And then there was this one, which is being held hostage.

An oldie but goodie.

2009-08-22T18:09:00.000-07:00

Here's one from the log books. I've been in the sweatshop burning the midnight oil something serious folks. Be on the look out for up and coming material by the next new moon.

Who said kung fu was a lost art?

Not so known hotness

2009-08-07T15:04:00.001-07:00

This one's uberfresh...And you might have slept on it if you didn't know.

Why am I the last person to hear this?

2009-08-02T18:04:00.001-07:00

An unlikely mesh, but it's still kinda hot.
The fact that I'm just now posting this shows how out of the loop I truely am.

When keepin it real goes wrong

2009-07-24T13:21:00.001-07:00

President Obama (had to)apologize for describing the arrest of a black Harvard professor as "stupid". Apparently a Harvard professor got apprehended while "trying to break into his own house" after a snitch called the Po-Po. I think he forgot even after you've moved up to the East side it still aint coo.A great deal of upstanding citizens think we're still making this whole racism thing up.

Like these fine folks (arresting officer not pictured)

East Coast vs. West Coast

2009-07-24T12:51:00.000-07:00

Before the beef, there were these everybody and they momma collaboration cuts. They need to bring this back. But with the south having a presence in music like they do it would have to be divided into 4 paths. West, South, East, and Mid-West (yes the mid west does deserve it's own "Everybody and they momma cut"

Run that back

2009-07-20T15:34:00.000-07:00

I just had a "What ever happen to...?" moment.

Whatever happend to quality mix tape videos, and rza re-spitting verses like nobody knew?

I was at party city looking for costumes and they didn't have any that I was really feeling. Maybe I should try to make my own, those always seem to be the best...
