Shit you dont have to be an avid smoker to rock The Green Stop photo op. Although I haven't missed a full year of toking since I started at age 12, circa 1997 or 1998, there were long stretches where I abstained for work and personal reasons. It's not for everyone. 

I made some pretzel dough into pepperoni pizzas and cinammon sugar rolls with my daughters today. Tried to post a pic but it's too large file size. I may fix that later. Now I'm chilling, getting ready for work again tomorrow. 

Been reading U-God's book about his life and Wu-Tang. Great so far.

u-god wrote a book?  hm.  

  

so, as i understand this proposal, drunkalo...  im sposed to get kidnapped in saint louis at some point...?  

interesting.  

not the least of reasons bein, i dont live in stl;  i just stomp around there sometimes.    

Yeah so far so good on the book. U-God would've been on 36 Chamber more but he kept pissing hot for probation due to handling cocaine too often. Got in the bloodstream.

You ever play the Wu-Tang fighting game?

 

There were like ninjas and like rappers and they were like kachooo pow bop cerchesshhs hiyaaaaa!

 

And I'm totally not making it up to fit in, It's totally real.

That's what I want to see with Psychopathic. Start Psychopathic Arcade. Bunch of ICP related games in different genres.

ICP RPG? Easy.

ICP fighting game? Easy.

Finished the U-God autobiography. Was good. Worth a read.

It had less of the contradictions that I expected coming into it. Shame on me, I guess. I am glad he saved the whole RZA beef for the end. U-God was humble enough to give his current enemy more praises and gratitude than ill words. 

I dont care to read about that bullshit 5 Percenter stuff, but he reserved that mainly for one brief chapter. Anything religious usually makes me cringe.

I have the same resentments as usual when I hear about how much money drug dealers make in so short a time. I get not envious but exasperated that they couldn't make more out of all that money. I dunno. $50,000 is chump change to some, and a goldmine to 9-to-5 suckers like me, I guess. 

The longest sections are his early life, the hustling days. Good stuff. He spends far more time on this era than his music era.

Highlights include a young man stealing his mother's earrings right off her ears and later finding out it was a young Mike Tyson, and U-God and Ghostface almost stomping Leonardo DiCaprio at a party. But the early years are the ones with most depth, as we have all read with Violent J's book. 

Worth a read, and I'd enjoy reading RZA's story. And GZA, Ghost, etc.

Yeah that game was also incredibly bad. It was a palette swap for Thrill Kill, which got pulled before it's release.

Definitely going on my list of books to buy.

Hate to be the downer once again, but my mom's cat was gone for about 4 days. The wife texted me during my last half hour of work that there was a cat on the road that looked like him. So on my walk home from the dispensary, I made a visual. Came home, got a box and a work glove and a snow shovel and carried him home. Buried him just now. My mom is a mess and I shed my tears. Burned the bloody box that i carried him home in. Rest in peace, Nolson. You goofy, soft grey boy.

Two days off now. The owners of this place went thru a realtor after my dad bailed out on helping us pay for it. So they raised it twenty thousand more to a new $140,000. We have til end of May to evacuate. Been looking all over. Working all the time so it's hard to find time to look harder.

The good news? My wife finally is getting her teacher job! 99% in the bag. Turns out the dumb broads at the HR hadn't been doing their jobs and for these past 3.5 years she has been getting dismissed due to their negligence. 

Just got a raise too. So we both are moving up in our jobs but shaky on a place to live. It's hard to find places that accept pets. At least we have one less cat to worry about AHYUCK AHYUCK!! Oh, boy I feel beaten.

I am one of the "never own" people. Not that you can ever really own land or a home. Property taxes and all. You still pay rent to the government for the rest of your life and if you fail to pay, you lose it. You never own it. You are still renting it.  

Not saying im right or better or anything but i was in that frame of mind for a while. If the hot water breaks call the landlord, no worries. Then something clicked and I wanted the piece of land to call my own with no rules. Its cool i could paint, put a hole in a wall, tear out a whole wall, no animal stipulations, no noise ordinance, do my own thing in my own place. Our taxes have been $76 a year. Ill take it for doing whatever i want whenever i want. 

Youngstown, Ohio. The mrs called the city last week so we could buy the lot behind us for $195, and according to them we were not residing in our house, only owned it, living somewhere else. So she had to correct that, taxes may rise slightly.
