Thursday, June 24th, 2004I read in the World Magazing blog about this new version of the Bible. It looked weird until I got to the excerpts. It would be hillarious if it wasn’t so tragic. The following excerpt had me laughing out loud, though.
Kinam- imagine what our bulletins would look like if Pastor Ted had’a […]
If This Was My Family
Thursday, June 24th, 2004I’d be on my way to jail right now. No rap. Just me, Trianthony, and my trusty Intratec.
Racism?
Thursday, June 24th, 2004Samantha has a great post on the disingenuous use of the word “racist.” I won’t try to re-state her case, but I’ll build on it a little bit.
Racism is sort of like a mild cuss word in the sense that it gets too much use to be of any real meaning. There was […]
Come Correct
Thursday, June 24th, 2004There’s an interview with Ludacris on cnn.com that appeared earlier this month. I was meaning to talk about it then, but with all the ruckus that’s been going on, I’m just getting a chance to get it in. The part that really killed me was this exchange:
Q: You did an “uncut” video for […]
Decoratin’ and Whatnot
Wednesday, June 23rd, 2004I’m foolin around with the background colors on this thing. The w-on-b looks cool, but sometimes it makes my eyes swimmy. (Need to take my medicine more regularly.) B-on-w is too bright, though. Got me squintin. Who knows what this will look like by the end of the week. […]
Random Old School Stuff
Tuesday, June 22nd, 2004I just about hijacked a commenting session from LaShawn, talking about old electronic games and whatnot, so I figured I’d be nice and bring it over here. On the way, I stopped by the okayplayer.com message board, where there’s a discussion going on about the best childhood fighting force. I will deal with […]

Some Real Hip-Hop For Ya
Tuesday, June 22nd, 2004I’m a firm believer that the antidote for the problems that beset hip-hop lie within hip-hop itself. No bunch of curmudgeonly old heads who don’t like hip-hop in the first place has anything constructive to add to the discussion. There’s always a place for valid critiques, but if it’s all criticism and no […]
Young Parents
Monday, June 21st, 2004Every time I go back to Philly, I keep planning to write about this, but I never actually sit down and start chopping. Well I am today.
Ambra wrote about parenting a few days ago. This is directly related to anything she mentioned, although I believe it does play a role in the discussion. […]
Been There, Done That
Monday, June 21st, 2004Tyson is fighting again? I don’t see it. I know why he would fight again, but from a fan’s perspective, I don’t know why anybody would watch it. He’s clearly washed up as a championship-caliber fighter. Even the sideshow element is stale. So what if he melts down? I’ve […]
