am i a trekkie?

the people that know me pretty much know i dig stark trek. as i started thinking about it, i realized i had watch all of the series between two and seven time. i started noticing reoccring themes and nods to other series.

so me being me i started taking some notes. then i started asking others what if they had noticed them as well or was i main this stuff up in my head.

then, i realized that most of my friends weren’t on it like that. and, i started to think maybe i was a trekkie.

so, as i continued to dig- i saws what people were out there really doin. there were conventions, people dressing up in uniforms, putting spock ears on. then i thought- nah, i’m not a trekkie.

well i guess im goin to see where about i land. i’m lookin to connect wth people all over this spectrum and see bout it. i’ll update y’all here on what i stumble upon.

peace,

where are my creatives?

Hello folks!

i’m interested in knowing what mediums my creative friends are passionate about. not just from the way they express themselves, but what they like to enjoy out there as well. i’ve toyed with an idea for several years, but now i believe it’s time to really put some thought into it.

over the next few months i will reveal more, but until then i will just showcase some of the fa bo lo us ( i can spell, but the raper has ruined the spelling of this word for me!) friends and people i’ve encountered over the years. for me it will be a trip down memory lane in a sense. for you, some good music, photos, placing to hang out, and dance your moody blues away.

see ya soon!

love is love,

cookie throw down!

i might have challenged the ladies at my local bar to a cookie throw down a couple weeks ago. ummm, i didn’t know they were so competitive. i mean 2 of them are in my fantasy football league and rib me pretty good when they beat me, but this is a whole nother level. i did get a tip yesterday from one of ’em, but we’ll see what it does for me.

all i gotta say is Rachel Ray don’t fail me now! i would’ve used a recipe from Paula Deen, but i only have like 50 pounds of butter in the house and i did’nt feel like running back out to the store to get more…

i love the fact that my hood has random cookie throw downs on any given Sunday!

wish me luck and there will be pics of all the cookies later. if ur down in astoria- u know where we’re at. bring milk!

House of Baba 2

it’s moments like these that i truly cherish. having an opportunity to share great pieces of work with the world, great music created by a person i’ve seen put in hard work and hone their craft. ultimately creating what can be a masterpiece. i’d like to share with you said work- created by ali baba, known to some as abnormal. known to many as an excellent lyricist with imaginative concepts. this dude has a vast history created within the 818 and is respected by some of your favorite emcees. here is House of Baba 2.

i think you;re gonna dig this.
