don't go shopping on friday...

just cause this is on the blog does not mean i endorse the foolishness that will occur this Friday. i don't even celebrate Thanksgiving. i just recently found out that Indians prefer to be called such as opposed to Americans. the logic being that anyone can be called an American. i usually tend to call Indians Americans because they were here first. technically, American isn't right either, 'cause they didn't make that up at all. then again, they didn't make up Indian either. anyways, Thanksgiving is yet another nutty Judeo-Christian holiday that everyone is forced to recognize, whether or not you want to do so. imagine what would have happened had the Indians not helped the early Europeans...

on that note

make like i'm going shopping instead of getting paid 2x to work Friday...

PEACE

"the laundres mats..."

i really dig gangster flicks. i'm currently in the middle of Deep Cover, which is 1 of my all-time faves. i can't believe this film is 15 years old. it's definitely 90's material, but unlike New Jack City, which i initially enjoyed, but cannot currently stand, it is not 90's in such a way as to be dated.

speaking of NJC, American Gangster is the shibabizzle igadizzle. that is an amazing portrayal of a modern day anti-hero. there are definitely holes where certain info was left out, but it's a film, not a detailed 500 or 600 page book. it was interesting to see that much of the imagery in modern films such as NJC seem to have had influences in actual fact. of course i'm referring to the buttass naked women working w/the heroin in the hi-rise project. great case of truth being stranger than fiction. fuck The Carter, this guy really had some shit like that set up in real life.

don't get me wrong, i do not admire Frank Lucas for creating and maintaining junkies' deathstyles, but he was clearly no organizational slouch. it's an interesting story if nothing else.

anyways, just thought i'd get some shit out. been kinda waywardly busy lately. haven't been making much of a contribution over the last few months. odd seeing as how i have a laptop that i can use away from home. regardless, i'm not all that pressed, 'cause nobody really reads this shit anyway...

make like the Eagles have not returned to their true form...

two eight oooooooooh...

i am officially a fat ass now. copped a scale from wizzy Wal-Mart a couple of weeks ago. i thought the thing was inaccurate, because it said i weighed 280lbs. i've never weighed that much in my entire life up to this point. my previous record for slovenly weight accumulation was 275lbs. i lost some of that, but i probably gained more. i don't do diets. what my lazy ass needs to do is exercise...

i have a mountain bike that i've ridden all of perhaps 10 or 15X since it was given to me in 2002-03. that's disgraceful. i used to ride my old bike all over the place. gotta get back to that level of regular exercise. otherwise i am doomed to be swollen like i am now and worse. i'm not trying to go out like my mom did.

make like my current weight distribution is some kind of balanced & healthy...

PEACE
