Taking Damage
I’m telling you, this is the future of music right here. Song blogging. I love it. People can just imagine a song topic they’d like to hear done, and I oblige. It’s greatly invigorating. Others will eventually do it better. Just remember, it started here first. I received a request concerning a song topic. Sam, […]
Top Flight
In its “Americans of the Year” Edition, Esquire has given Mark Kelly the cover. Kelly is the husband of Representative Gabrielle Giffords of Arizona, who was shot earlier this year at a public appearance, along with others. He has been noble at her side. And, she has made an against-all-odds recovery, even so far as […]
At Least They Have Great Meatballs
Has anyone else noticed how heavily this site traffics in/relies upon infantile ethnic and cultural stereotyping? Wait until tomorrow. It gets worse. So, news has come in that Julian Assange, the principle editor of WikiLeaks, has lost his court battle against extradition back to Sweden to face the sexual assault charges pending against him there. […]
Give and Take
Steve Jobs passed this week. I don’t need to fill you in on his story. He’s an accepted technological genius of our time. Apple’s products have changed the way we live our lives. I’m not an Apple or Jobs worshiper but our family has nearly the entire product line, in various specs, and has been […]
Next Gen
My son and his homeboy are making their ipoetblog.com debut with an ode to stackable blocks. Not really rap news. Just raps by 8 year olds. Written by J-Willis & E-Scrilla. Performed by J-Willis. Vocal Percussion by E-Scrilla. Today’s song blog here: [wpaudio url=”http://www.ipoetblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/I-Love-Legos-Man.mp3″ dl=”0″ text=”I Love Legos, Man.“]
My bologna has a first name . . .
Man, I didn’t want to touch this with a ten foot pole. But the story just kept growing. (Too easy.) It’s embarrassing. It’s awkward. It’s not any sort of real news. But Weinergate has persisted for over a week now. For those that don’t know, Representative Anthony Weiner was exposed for ironically sharing indiscreet photos […]
Over the Moon
I missed covering this news item a couple months back at the last launch of the Space Shuttle Discovery. But, NASA’s recent announcement concerning the final resting place of its remaining space shuttles has given me occasion to address it. NASA is discontinuing its space shuttle program. Why exactly NASA has to wholesale abandon entire […]
Personals: man seeking dignity
Man, I hate this. Hate it. I hate the public shame of it all. A congressman resigned his post last night for having been ostensibly caught advertising himself on Craigslist, the infamous online and localized classifieds. I hesitate to even cover it but for the opportunity to make sure we keep some perspective. His acts […]
Friendly Skies
And getting friendlier. A cadre of delayed passengers almost killed the boarding pass handlers last night at Charlotte Douglas International’s C10 gate who had, only moments before, permitted the departing plane to taxi away, notwithstanding information that a companion flight had been substantially delayed. No one seemed particularly relieved that they might have instead just had […]
