Where The Wild Things Are…

What are you getting into this weekend in NYC? I’m having a CMJ pre-game weekend myself. There is too much shit to do and only 24hrs to get it all done. Definitely go to the Reed Space Annex on Sunday for the lambskin leather V-goose launch. Let’s see what kind of pricepoints they are offering for that joint.

On Saturday it’s time to celebrate if you are Boriqua, or if you are like me and you have an affinity for pernil. El Museo del Barrio will cut the ribbon on their new gallery space, cafe and exterior courtyard. This was another project that I had to shit a brick for in order to get to the finish line on time. Well here we are and rain or shine we are going to celebrate the culture and heritage of latino Americans.

After I boogie at El Museo I have to make you boogie at Lit Lounge in the lower east side. I’ll be putting in work as a guest deejay so if you are in the vicinity def pop in and say what up. @Heems (.5 of future rap superstars Das Racist) invited me to spin so I thought I could bring my Blacbook filled with all kinds of punk funk rap rock rebel goodies. I open the party @ 10pm so don’t roll thru at 3am looking for me. I fux with naps and shit.

I gotta see that Spike Jonze flick this weekend too. And then next week will be the College Music Journal madness. I’m gonna need a clone, or a surrogate.

Bloomingdale’s hosted a little shopping event to celebrate the 75th anniversary of DC Comics. Nike’s Converse division has licensed DC characters for t-shirts ans other apparel. There were free drinks so combine that with iconic comic book lore and you know I am up in that piece.

I took a few flicks and made a little video (natch) because Bloomie’s doesn’t care if I use my handycam in their store. FUX YO’ adidas!

If you copped a pair of Converse Chuck taylors you could have the Bloomie’s in-house artist ruin customize them for you free of charge.

Shouts to the other artist who was drawing caricatures of the fanboys. Too bad his reference points were all Marvel characters. #comicartistfail

Handsome Boy Modeling School on their grind and nobody is smiling.

NEAL ADAMS made it a dope comic cover and Converse made it a crappy t-shirt.

Adult Swim = FREE SHIT!

Do you fux with Adult Swim? If you don’t you are missing the best bloc of programming on the tube. Adult Swim is like the NBC Thursday night lineup in the early 1990’s. Starting at 8pm you didn’t need to touch your remote until you went to sleep.

Sleep is no longer an option however and the Adult Swim programming is my insomniac theatre. When I was in Atlanta early this year I visited the Adult Swim studios and hung out with some of the creators of the Williams Street production team.

A few days later I had a totally awesome sweatshirt mailed to me. The sweatshirt has a hood and the Adult Swim logo on the front. The sweatshirt is an American Apparel XL so I won’t be wearing this ever in my life. Would you like own this sweatshirt?

Just tell me two things… The name of Early Cuyler’s sister (Squidbillies) and the name of Stroker & Hoop’s car (Stroker & Hoop). The Adult Swim sweatshirt is just like the one pictured below except it says ‘Adult Swim’ on the front, and it is a zip-up hoodie as opposed to a pullover, but yeah, otherwise exactly the same.

Racial Profiling Gets A Facial…

The FBI has a new weapon in their war against crime. It’s your face. By using facial recognition software and the images stored in the Department of Motor Vehicles databases nationwide you aren’t going to able to skip out on a parking ticket any longer. So far they have caught at least one person for a crime and before the year is out they may, or may not, catch someone else. But in the meantime, they know what you look like.

So as soon as we criminalize people for having noses that are too wide or we crunch the numbers to find that people with a certain spacial relationship between their eyes and ears are more prone to crime (just like that candy to crime study) we will start locking you fools up on some preemptive shit. Remember how we bombed the fux out of Iraq preemptively? This will be just like that. We will kick in your door on some Minority Report shit, scan your retinas a then whup your ass.

So don’t think for a second that we won’t be abusing this technology.

What good is technology if it isn’t used for evil?

DP.COM MANNY WATCH…

MANNY and the Dodgers are back into the NLCS round of the MLB playoffs. I hope they face off against Philly again so they can come up on a little getback.

The really great news for the Dodgers is that MANNY seems to have recovered his stroke [ll] after stumbling into the postseason going 5 for his last 31 at-bats. As goes MANNY so go the Dodgers despite ANDRE ETHIER having a breakout season.

The Yanks are on the verge of sweeping the Twins away in the ALDS and the Red Sox find themselves one game away from elimination also. If the current trends hold sway we may have ourself another NY-LA October Classic. The first one since the Dodgers series win in 1981.
