Leathal Weapon 5
A West Virginia man who police said passed gas and fanned it toward a patrol officer has been charged with battery on a police officer.
Jose A. Cruz, 34, of Clarksburg was pulled over early Tuesday for driving without headlights, police said. According to the criminal complaint, Cruz smelled of alcohol, had slurred speech and failed three field sobriety tests before he was handcuffed and taken to a police station for a Breathalyzer test.
As Patrolman T.E. Parsons prepared the machine, Cruz scooted his chair toward Parsons, lifted his leg and “passed gas loudly,” the complaint said.
Cruz, according to the complaint, then fanned the gas toward the officer.
“The gas was very odorous and created contact of an insulting or provoking nature with Patrolman Parsons,” the complaint alleged.
He was also charged with driving under the influence, driving without headlights and two counts of obstruction.
Cruz acknowledged passing gas but said he didn’t move his chair toward the officer nor aim gas at the patrolman. He said he had an upset stomach at the time, but police denied his request to go to the bathroom when he arrived at the station.
“I couldn’t hold it no more,” he said.
He also denied being drunk and uncooperative, as the police complaint alleged. He added he was upset at being prepared for a Breathalyzer test while having an asthma attack.
The police statement said he later resisted being secured for a trip to a hospital that he requested for asthma treatment.
Cruz said the officers thought the gas incident was funny when it happened and laughed about it with him.
“This is ridiculous,” he said. “I could be facing time.”
Hell in a Hand Basket???!!!
Who would have thought that not passing the "Buy In Plan" would result in the Dow closing -777 points? I was not in suppport of the bill because it offered no releif to the average Joe. No plan for the Foreclosures, no plan for the Bankruptcy Rate, No plan for the Unemployment Rate. It was all for the sense of security for Wall Street Investors.
But where do we go from here???

Death of the Freestyle
Over the weekend the World Series of Hip Hop took place MC Battle Royal. I watched footage of the first battle between E Ness and Mysonne. After the first 3 minutes I lost all interest but couldn't figure out why. Was my ADD flaring up? I just couldn't put my finger on it. Then i just hit me, it hit me harder than the stockmarket crash today. None of these cats were freestyling, it was so bad that the crowd knew the punchline and said it before the MC did!
What kind if $#it is that? What happened to the beauty of improvisation of life that Hip Hop was built on. What happened to dissing your oponenet on their poor choice of wardrobe? What happened to the cleaverness of Hip Hop. Over the last 5 years there has been a number of MC's, Rappers, Hip Hop Artists and others that follow a cookie cutter formula for success. Its sad to say, but their sucess instead of real actual talent merits their Dopeness, and Freshness. I really feel what Nas said that Hip Hop was dead back in '06. It was the truth that sparked many barbershop conversations and debates.
Well today I want to declare that the Art of Freestlyle is dead.
Now that that is in the open and on the table, it is time to identify the main suspects. In no particular order here are my choices.
Organization/Programing
Fight Klub
Freestyle Friday (106 and Park)
Smack DVD
Rap Stars
Cassidy
E Ness
Mysonne

No Homo
The Drunk girl at the party
Last Night I was drunk. Not that cool drunk where you can keep talking to that girl on your lap and have her smiling all night, I was toss your cookies and sit on the curb drunk. After I prayed to the poceline gods for about 30 minutes I made my way back to the bar for another drink. It was only after my renewed drunkeness set in that I found the coveted last option of the night, yes I found the drunk girl.
Having thrown up and started over I was just saucy enough for it not to be me taking advantage of her, but as we made out way back to my apartment I realized the wonder of the dunk girl. I knew I was going to get everything I needed from this young lady and even in my impaired state I managed to convince her that spitters are quitters.
Some of you are reading this in disgust and shaking your heads but think back before you get mad. Has there ever been a night where the drunk girl was the best option? As I depart I leave you with but a few reminders, Underage drinking is wrong, Drinking and Driving mix like oil and water, but when you have had a night where it seemed everything you say to women causes them to immediately turn away from you the drunk girl is priceless.
(oh the girl in the picture is not the girl I was with last night, but she is a bopper. Krystal is the preverbial Drunk girl. )

700 billion
The chairman of the US Federal Reserve has urged politicians to "act quickly" to support the proposed $700 billion bail-out of the financial markets.
I was a young man my uncle taught me about hustling, the thing I remember most about what he told me was," Always make them rush into a decision." I am a little older now but I recognize the hustle being proposed this week. So this is what I need you to do, call, write, email you local federal legislator and tell them to shut this down. Diane Finestein and Barbara Boxer must hear from you in order to stop this craziness. 700 billion with no rules is ridiculous.
Kim Jong is the new T.I.

a Brown Ford any day
Was it R. Kelly or Damon Emmanuel ?
Color Complex
I have been thinking this week about my certified banger choice and I realize that people are born into their perfect complexion. Imaging if Ms. Martin was a nice shade of onyx(black) I don't think she would be as cute. it's not because black is not beautiful but I think it speaks to the deeper issue of the color complex that many people have. I guess we still have alot to work through in our lives because every shade of black should be beautiful. I still think Ms. Martin is cute.
(this is probablly written incoherently, forgive me I am watching football.)
