Harlem Stand Up!

Saw this on Miss Info's website. When is there going to be a doc on her? The Asian woman who runs hip hop! She runs shit and keeps it moving. Where are the Black versions of her? For some reason her name rings bells for me more than others probably because of the fact that she is Asian. These videos star Azie the drug dealer from Paid In Full fame and his perspective on the drug game yesterrday and today. Haven't seen them but everyone loves drug talk so why wouldn;t I post it? The videos are called Snowman talk (how original). By these dude called Gasface!

Is it ghetto of me to buy something from a grocery store after I saw rats in its meat section?


I was at the Fine Fare on 116th and Lenox two weeks ago and I along with other customers saw a rat running through the meat section. Now, I never buy meat from Harlem stores and now I and you both know why. (Whole Foods or Fairway). But that Fine Fare has the only yogurt that I can buy without going out of my way. So Here's my question: If I buy goods that are packaged and wrapped up, is it ghetto of me to buy it even if I saw a rat running through that same store's meat section? As PAPA Bill O'Reilly would say: WHAT SAY YOU?

Random blogging - I have got to stop going to the Magic Johnson Theater Part #1

Magic Johnson is my neighborhood theater. Period! I am stubborn and refuse to stop going there because it is in my neighborhood. It doesn't make sense to go downtown and spend money to watch a film that I can see ten minutes away. It is basically a Brown vs. Board of Education of Topeka situation.

But with that being said: I have got to stop going.

The Ninjas in there are making it crazy. I saw the Watchmen with my wife at the 10:45 show and boy the ninjas in there make it UNBEARABLE! One guy that lucky for me sat right next to me kept saying out loud to anyone that would listen and that would be all of us because he was yelling, "this movie us trash." But wouldn't leave for two hours. Now I am a veteran of Magic and I have been patronizing it as long as it's been open but it's getting ridiculous.

Understand this: I am true believer. My brother/BFF (NO HOMO) Krispin Gault just doesn't go. He would rather go downtown then have to listen to dumb ninjas talk through the movie and show no respect to others. My wife and I have been snubbed by couples people because they would refuse to go to the theater because they didn't want to put up with the bullshit. I am gettting close to that point.
