I Got Fired!

Well technically I didn't get fired but that's how I feel. I was a 14-month temp at Myspace, so I wasn't fired according to my agency, my assignment just ended. How convient yet polically correct. Well word to the wise, whether you call it being fired or you assignment ends, losing your job sucks, regardless and some little fluffed up vernacular does change that.

Funny how it all went down though...I was on my way home from work one day on a Friday. A usual Friday like any other friday, nothing special about it at all. Then I get the call out of nowhere, no conference with management, no intervention, no warning they just let me go. I can't say I'm shocked because people at Myspace have been droppin' like flies. They let over 30 people go over the last 3 months including the supervisor of the department whom they escorted out as if he hadn't been working their for 3 years.

The unfortunate loss of my job occured about a week and a half ago and I haven't blogged since. I guess I haven't had anything to blog about or at least nothing to blog about that I felt like was worthwhile or interesting to anyone other than myself. But I'm back now blog world!!! Armed with my trademark wit and undying proclivity toward 4 letter words.

P.S my roomate just called me a fair weather blogger. Fuckin Hilarious!!!

How I'm Feelin Right Now.....

Oh yeah!!!

TV Talk: Lie To Me

If you haven't seen Lie To Me yet I suggest you start, its the hottest new show on TV. I've been watching since they aired the pilot and I've been hooked ever since. The show focuses on a team of investigators that specialize in reading peoples body language and facial expressions to determine whether they are lying on not and more importantly why. But what really makes the show so interesting is the variety of scenarios and situations these investigators find themselves in combined the multi-faceted characters that drive the show (having sexy ass red bone Monica Raymund on the show doesn't hurt either!) In some instances the investigators are more screwed up and damaged than the people theyre investigating, which makes for great television. The show is still in the 1st season and the characters are still developing so nows a good a time as any to jump on board. It airs Wednesday Nights on Fox.

Blackberry App Addiction: Qik

Qik is slowly becoming my favorite blackberry app, next Viigo (RSS Reader). Qik allows you to record videos on your blackberry and stream them to the internet with just the click of a button. Just download the app and press record and as its recording on your phone its uploading directly to internet with about a half a second to 2 second delay. Once the videos are uploaded you can view them, send them and embed the videos just like youtube videos. It's a pretty revolutionary app in my opinion and worth checking out.

Editor's Pick : Kings Of Leon - Only By The Night

So I've bought a few albums lately mainly because I listen to music all day everyday, partially because I'm passionate about music and partially because its an occupational hazard in my line of work. And I don't just listen to CD's I listen to catalogs, like I'll find an artist or band I like and then find their catalog and list to every single song on every CD they've released in succession, breaking only for sustenance and the occasional bathroom break. The CD that's been in the heavy rotation lately for me has been Kings Of Leon - Only By The Night, it is by far one of the best CD's Ive picked up in the last 6-8 months, next to The-Dream's album of course. I can play this CD straight threw without skipping a song (except for "Crawl") and after extended listening sessions the replay value remains. So I recommend this album to hard core rock fans or even casual rock fans looking for something to scream along to while stuck in traffic on the 405. With a more refined evolution of a sound they've been honing for over 8 years, this album delivers like Fed-Ex and is perfectly capable of pleasing the music nerd and casual consumer alike.

Now This Is How You Motivate

Here's a quote from one of Bobby Knight's many great speech's throughout his illustrious career which spans 4 decades and includes over 900 wins and 3 National Championships.

"We're at a point where I'm getting the fuck outta here. I mean if you're not going to cover Greg Graham if you're just gonna let him drive by ya, if the rest of you are gonna let him catch the ball outside the 3 second line and drive all the way in here without one guy challengin him, then I'm leavin and you guys will fuckin run till you can't eat supper. Now I'm tired of this shit, I'm sick and fuckin tired of a fucking 8-10 record, I'm fuckin tired of losing to Purdue. I'm not here to fuck around this week. Now you may be, but I'm not. Now I'm gonna fuckin guarantee ya that if we don't play it up there Monday night you're ain't gonna believe the next fuckin day. Now I am not here to get my ass beat on Monday and you better fuckin understand that right now. This is absolute fuckin bullshit. Now I'll fuckin run your ass right in the ground. I'll fuckin run you, you'll think last night was a fuckin picnic. I had to sit around for a fuckin year with an 8 and 10 record in this fuckin league. And I mean you will not put me in that fuckin position again, or you will goddamn pay for it like you can't fuckin believe. Now you better get your head outta your ass."

Motivation 101 take note kid.

This Is Terrible, But Hilarious - Fast & The Furious Spoof (SNL)

This is terrible! SNL has been on lately every since the beginning of the democratic primary, they've been on FIRE.

Zac Farro Is The Coldest On The Drums Right Now

And dude is only 18! I'm shocked so many people are sleeping on his drum work. His drum stylings take on a life of their own in the track always changing, swinging, rolling. They are as unpredictable as the wind. He's a magician on the drums.

House Party!

This party was crazy, it started at 12:45am!!!

Summer In Miami 2008 - Video Blog

RT: Video Games

This blog has been re-posted courtesy of the nihilistic one BlackNintendo

No joke, I have lived for video games ever since I set foot on a powerpad. I might not know everything about games, I don't have the latest systems, and I don't even really play all that much, but video games are the biggest influences by far on my life. I literally work now so that I can have a nice enough apartment with free time and quality equipment for video games. It's not that I am addicted to fun or anything, but there is something to be said for controlling the fate of main characters, basketball players, and fighter ships using only your thumbs and abstract reasoning. I think the significance of what video gaming in our society has just begun. Similar to the novels and films of the previous millennium, video games and their derivatives will be celebrated throughout the Earth as worthy of ubiquitous icon status. 20 years from now, the original Nintendo will be found in museums, and streets in art districts across the will be named after game developers like Miyamoto, and Will Wright.

As you can tell by my 'vision of the future' my love for video games exists on multiple levels, and takes on way too much significance. This is what my blog is about, letting video games tell the story in between the lines, and thriving as humankind's beautiful reflective manifestations of our own earthly ability.

iPod Shuffle: Kanye West - Apologize (Improvise) UNRELEASED

Probably one of Kanye’s most memorable records and he never officially released it! Crazy to me.

iPod Shuffle: Bittersweet Poetry

Have you ever felt you ever want to kill her?
And you mix them emotions with tequila
And you mix that with a little bad advice
On one of them bad nights, ya'll have a bad fight
And you talking 'bout her family, her aunts and shit
And she say "Motherfucker, yo momma's a bitch!"
You know, domestic drama and shit, all that attitude
I'll never hit a girl, but I'll shake the shit outta you!
But I'mma be the bigger man, Big Pimpin' like Jiggaman
Oh I guess I figure it's...

Crazy Ass Niggas

Mike. Dre: Man girls be loving the craziest most messed up niggas. Like the chick on here her boyfriend is crazy as a muthafucka and she stay defending his crazy ass! WTF?

Ms. L : Greys??

Mike.Dre: Yeah Christina and Owen

Ms. L: I've never seen it...but......I use to be one of those girls. Lmao!

Mike.Dre: Really tell me about those girls, I never understood 'em. Enlighten me.

Ms. L: Well, I have to say, its usually those ones who (when they r acting stable) show you the most adoration & affection... And its hard to look past the good & see the crazy

Mike.Dre: Hmmm that's interesting, so how do normal guys act then??

Ms. L: Well, I mean I am not saying regular guys are bad, I am just saying that me personally like a lot of physical affection & I have found that the craziest guy I Dated was the most hard core when it came to making me feel good.

Ms. L: Well, I dunno.. Regular guys are usually too "cool" to be overly affectionate. My ex was always touching me in someway, & always said things about how cute I was and making sure he made me feel good in bed. Plus, crazy guys KNOW their crazy, so they hav 2 go above & beyond to make up for it

Mike.Dre: Haha interesting.

Ms. L: I don't put up with crazy dudes anymore tho

Mike.Dre: Why?

Ms. L: Cuz the last one (which was right before I met u) fucked me up BIG TIME. I'm still a little scarred from it.

Mike.Dre: wow

Cop Gets Drop Kicked In The Face By Angry Mob

Sometimes My Heart Overflows And Comes Out Through My Fingers

At work on the 6th hour of my 8 ½ hour marathon of mind numbing cubical work, listening to Coldplay’s Parachutes album. Gotta stay calm, don’t panic, watch out for spies, stay out of trouble and get ready to work at high speed. Because everything’s not lost and we never change (unless we have to). Hopefully at least one you feel me.

My School's Going To The 'Big Dance'

I've been going to Cal State Northridge (CSUN) for a few years now and every year its the same story, lose to the conference Juggernaut Pacific (after a hard fought season) and watch the greatest spectacle in all sports March Madness from home. But this year is all about CHANGE and this year boys and girls we've got our dancing shoes ready because we're heading to The Big Dance! Being the Uber Sports Fan that I am I couldn't be more excited!!!! This is my first opportunity to get a change to experience high stakes college athletics with a winning team! For so many years I'd just sit home and watch the Dukes', the North Carolina's, the Georgetown's of the world and wondering why that could be us and why couldn't I be that drunkin' rabbit fan in full body paint haggling the referees??? Well now's my change and its bittersweet to say the least. My school has finally been selected to be part of the field of 64, one of 64 teams fighting for their place in history, part of 64 teams put it all on the line as they race to cut down the nets.

By my accounts March Madness started 2 days ago when Syracuse defeated UConn in 6OT's. The feelings in the air, Can You Feel It? Can Feel It? The type of excitement only found during March Madness. Who's this year's Stephan Curry? Who's this years George Mason or Davison? Could it be Northridge? or maybe your school? Thats what makes The Big Dance, well The Big Dance because you simple dont know whats going to happen. Which No. 1 seed will fall first, will they all fall? Everyone loves a good upset and you wont find bigger upsets anywhere else but here. There's about 10 to 15 teams looking for the biggest win in school history and 10 to 15 teams willing to do anything to prevent that, you couldnt write a better storyline if someone paid you to. Watching the ball hit the bottom of the net from 35 feet as the No. 1 seed falls and the fans of completely unknown Ginavitus University flood the court like a million ants in school colors is sight like no other! The NBA has nothing on passion like this!

My only regret is that I didn't go to school with a better athletic program so I could enjoy this experience more frequently than once every 8 years. With that said, fuck the haters, Lets Go Matadors!!!

Fuck The Police Vol. 10 : Cops Go Chris Brown On Teenage Girl In Jail Cell

I blog about police brutality and their use of excessive force as frequently as I hear about these incidents. Its almost like I collect these news stories and I'm collecting so many that I may have to create a dedicated blog just for all these headlines...maybe www.FuckThePolice.com or www.QuitHidingBehindTheBadgeBitch.com. OK, maybe the second one was a little too long but you get the point. These incidents of police misconduct occur far too frequently and it looks like nothing is really being done to address this issue and resolve it. The police have no shame and no respect for anyone its disgusting, and the worse part about it is they are still painted as those here to protect and serve. The only thing these bitch ass niggas are protecting is their own ass and their serving up is racism, bigotry and abuse of power following by 20 shots to the back. And will the punishment fit the crime for these cops that went Chris Brown all upside this young ladies head? Probably not. So I leave you all with my closing statement.

FUCK THE POLICE, comin straight from underground.
