The Runaways

RACHEL STEWART and DAKOTA FANNING are going to be in a movie together...I won't say a word until I see it...But check out the trailer!

Pretty Little Liars...

Wouldn't it be crazy if the "Pretty Little" clique at every high school was actually gossiping about something scary instead of airy? This show is a HIT, lol! It's like Desperate Housewives meets Gossip Girl on the corner of Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. This doesn't surprise me, seeing as the show is on ABC Family...And it makes sense that ABC would take one of their most popular shows for a female demographic and fuse it together with a popular teen show from a competing network.

The idea of never knowing the truth and getting caught in dirty secrets is timeless and ageless and I really think the whole point of the psycho-stalker ghost is to illustrate how each character is extremely paranoid about keeping up false appearances. Dare I say, this dead friend of theirs...Allison...is merely a figment of their imagination to confront the larger issues of their social life. Who knows, though? PRETTY LITTLE LIARS is definitely a must see!

Where Are You?

 

The sheets ruffled
as two legs shuffled
at the bottom of the bed.
She turned her face
to that middle place
where one would likely find a head.
Dead tired,
she asked,  

"Where are you?"
as she rose to toast some bread.
She lit a half-smoked cigarette
that was on the window's chipping ledge.
She breathed the air of mystery
with sun-highlighted dreads.
The toaster popped
and the sound had knocked
the silence
that was shed.
She wondered
what the chances were
she'd find someone again...

Moving to the Miami Heat

LeBron "King" James has a lot of angry subjects due to his latest decision to move to the Miami Heat. The Media frenzy was UNBELIEVABLE for his announcement and we really witnessed history in the making. Personally, this concept of BIG BALLERS being FREE AGENTS...to win championship rings is bringing a sense of autonomy to the game that we really haven't seen before. The trilogy is going to be absurd (LeBron,Chris Bosh, and Dwane Wayde)...and I must say LeBron's business savy approach has a very Masonic undertone. Money is the motive and we're seeing free enterprise working at it's best. I mean, Florida doesn't even have a state income tax...so, yeah.

Appreciating Art: Matt Siber

Saw this on Kanye's Blog and thought...dope. It's called the FLOATING SIGNS SERIES and Siber's photography skills are on point.

Word of the Day: PLUTONOMY

I was watching the Michael Moore's documentary, CAPITALISM: A LOVE STORY, with my dad for the third time and I realized...the word PLUTONOMY definitely needs to be in everyone's vocabulary.

PLUTONOMY (n.) refers to a society where the majority of the wealth is controlled by an ever-shrinking minority; as such, the economic growth of that society becomes dependent on the fortunes of that same wealthy minority.

Since economics and government are intrinsically intertwined, I think it's time to stop using the word DEMOCRACY and replace it with PLUTONOMY. 

I Love You

Love 

is like a language
only you and I can speak.
We're on another level;
out of hand,
beyond their reach.
I swear you give me shivers
how you seize me when you breathe.
I lose my cool in slivers...
You make the air around me freeze.
You elevate my mood
above the point of highest peaks.
You're the river to my ocean;
YES, 

to me,
our love is just THAT deep.
Your eyes are like a potion
and I dare to take them in.
You look at me
and there's this energy
surging through me,
  and I feel it on my skin.
Between telepathy
and chemistry,
we're breaking barriers,
bending matters.
You know me
and I get you.
You understand
how much 
I love you.

Never Forget You...

Ahhh! This song is my ish and I love the video even more. The Noisettes have a very authentic sound and I think they may do it a little better than Janelle Monae...yeah, I said it... o_o So check it out...Never Forget You...

PIZZACONE!

So, a new restaurant just opened in Manhattan. It's called PIZZACONE. Yup, the picture says it all. You get to have your pizza in a cone! Now, I sound excited about this but really, I'm skeptical. I'll definitely have to go check it out next week and I'll get back to you what the deal is. I do want to point out, however, that fast food is evolving just as rapidly as technology. I mean...food is more about asthetics than anything else, just like everything else these days. Interesting.

Appreciating Art: Calma

Stephan Doistchinoff aka Calma is a Brazilian painter, muralist and performance art choreographer. He's internationally known for his art and he's pretty ILL.  Recently, he's dropped new art and had another solo show for his line, CRAS (a latin term that means 'tomorrow'). In his recent interview with Juxtapoz magazine he explained the inspiration for his new line and what emotions he was trying to bring to his audience. Here's an excerpt from the magazine article:

"Some of the pieces for the show create a dialogue with this idea of urgency. Emphasizing to not leave the important things for tomorrow; do what you believe in now. Death is right behind you so open your eyes, live life fully, with a heart light as a feather…life is moving fast."

The second theme for his new line is called NOVO ASCETICISMO (which translates to new asceticism). The idea behind this theme is focuses is inspired by his belief in the "acceptance of sacrifice the modern man must go through in order to keep on a right path." In other words, the influence of media...big business...government...are all things that the modern man must abstain from in order to remain righteous. DOPE CONCEPT. Check out some of the pics...

OMEGA REBOOT!

So, after finishing this one I decided to name the whole project of pieces OMEGA REBOOT! Now that I have a cohesive theme...I'm going in! "CHANGE IS THE ORIGINAL CONSTANT"

Hello, Good Morning...

Okay, so I tweeted earlier yesterday that I secretly wish I was part of Rick Ross' posse so I could pop bottles all night and laugh while he raps about the whole thing go down. This song just makes me want to do the "Diddy Dance". I thought it was fitting...considering it is definitely morning time right now...

The Picture of Perfect

 

Perfection, 

I know I've seen you before.
I do,  

because I remember taking a picture with you.
You had bought me something sweet
in a dream 

with lots of green
somewhere.
But then I lost it.
I lost the damn picture!
I went frantic,
writing about you 

and me

and this picture.
I was M A D.
Throwing words 

and living verbs  

every

single

night...

so that I might remember you.
It was like...
the more I remembered of you
the more I could never be sure
that I had the image EXACTLY right.
Like, no...

that's not right...

questioning my sight;
  I distinctly remember your face
capturing the essence of a different light...
in a dream, maybe.
Anyway, 

you get it.
You know what I mean
and me knowing that you know me
is exactly what I need.
Coming close to proving that I know you
does wonders for my self-esteem.
I've seen 

so many pictures
of imitations 

of you..
EXAGGERATIONS of you...
And I'm such a fool.
I could have saved you!
Now, I rephrase to one day reface you.
Like sweet music,
you're the only thing
I'll ever chase to.
But first, 

I have to see you.

Tiger's Wild Divorce Settlement

So, I read at Forbes.com that Tiger Woods' divorce settlement couldn't be $750 million because he doesn't even have that much money! Supposedly, his net worth is only $600 million. When I heard the aforementioned rumor I knew there was something ABSOLUTELY OUTLANDISH about it, but I was just waiting it out to hear the official word. After all, Tiger had a prenuptial agreement with Elin, so he's certainly not going to just hand over his money. Forbes did say that she will most likely get more that what was agreed upon in the prenup, though.  

Do You Know About Red Mass?

I remember learning in high school (actually middle school) that one of the reasons why people were so apprehensive and uptight about President John F. Kennedy being in office was religion. People were genuinely afraid that the Pope would eventually usurp the power from the government and that the Catholic Church would take on world domination. It goes without saying that separation of church and state has always been a major topic...

Well, why is there something called RED MASS, then, if that is the case? Red Mass is an annual Church ceremony that all political and governmental officials attend (a lot of times even the President of the United States) at the Cathedral of St. Matthew the Apostle in Washington D. C. Every year they all come together and request guidance from the Holy Spirit and take the opportunity for reflection on what Catholics believe is the God-given power and responsibility of all in the legal profession. I think it's an interesting thing. One side of me says...YES, for ethics and a sense of morality in politics. The other side of me says...but wait...why is it a CATHOLIC Mass? Why is it a PENTECOSTAL Mass when Catholics don't believe in speaking in tongues? Isn't this a violation of separation of church and state?
