Red Hair...

Damn...I don't know what it is or if Rhianna has done started something but for one reason or another I'm really starting to dig women with red hair for some reason and something about it is just starting to seem real sexy here lately....and it's almost like I can feel the pubic hairs on my balls stand up whenever I take notice of a fire fly passing by or hovering around the way. Done well I'm starting to think its so fly.....

I hate to say it but sometimes you just gotta let it bang because these lil n*ggas out here play to much man. And a Mercedes at that?? Cmon son you are supposed to only try and pull that off on a Dodge Neon or something LOL. But to add - you never know what people going through out here...peoples backs are against the wall, no end in site, living life like a outlaw already or whatever so you just gotta be careful homey because there ain't no telling what some people will do or subconsciously where they've placed their boundaries at...

ATLANTA — An Atlanta man has been charged with gunning down a young man he thought threw eggs at his Mercedes in a Halloween prank.

Police spokesman Carlos Campos says officers arrested 20-year-old Michael Hunnicutt around 1:35 p.m. Friday and charged him with murder in the death of 18-year-old Tavarus Erving on Oct. 31.

Police say Hunnicutt shot Erving after he confronted him because he believed Erving splattered his Mercedes with eggs. Police say 10 shots were fired.

Hunnicutt was being held Friday in the Fulton County jail. Police said they didn't know if Hunnicutt had an attorney.

Smoking Section: High Times Seeds & Strains 2010

    Seeing this just made me think of how far I've came....even though now honestly I could even care less. I get high on life! Either way its still a part of American and urban culture but I just think its funny how having the habit or excepting the recreation gets so bastardized within society and in white collar communities yet and still when their running drug of choice, cocaine, is actually more destructive. Either way the way I see it, there must be some acceptance of  the plant being that magazines are allowed to publish information on it on a regular basis.....since the last time I checked, I don't ever remember seeing how to make crack being published in the Daily News Journal.

Fall/Winter 2010 Hip Hop Starting 4

Hate to say it but either the game ain't what it used to be or I'm just getting older so the appeal is different. Nonetheless, except for Nas, alot of MC's I used to listen to now are beginning to sound weak and as far as the artist I never even listened to before anyway i wonder how in the hell they even expect to sell any records. However with that comes a flock of fresh blood, MC's like my personal favorite Nipsey Hu$$le, Wale, and such; although I still have my fan favorites...which are the likes of the TI's , Ricky Rose', and the Game, personally I still dig hunger of new talent, fresh rhymes, and raw lyrics. Which leads us to my Fall/Winter 2010 MC Starting lineup:

1. Nipsey Hu$$le
