R.I.P. BETTIE MAE PAGE

Saturday, December 13th, 2008

spank rock

BETTIE PAGE is part of the reason that some women make shitloads of cash doing pr0n. PAGE didn’t do pr0n though. All she did was expose the hypocrisy of our culture when we see the female form.

At least she didn’t die penniless like some bum on the street. She led a curious life because during the 1960’s she left the modeling business totally. PAGE only resurfaced during the last decade or so. She had been signing photos and memoribilia at conventions and the what not. PAGE was a little embarrassed at her fandom since she didn’t consider herself beautiful.

I hope some of you video ho’s out there say a quick prayer for your patron goddess.

SNEAKER FIENDS UNITE!

iron giant

One of my problems with he sneaker game is the general lack of imagination that some sneaker companies have.

i was having an argument with my homey from Flawless Hustle – GABEROCKKA. He was discussing one of his recent acquisitiions that he called the ‘Batman’ SB’s. I saw that same pair and I called them the ‘Iron Giant’ SB’s

I thought that the name ‘Iron Giant’ was way more appropriate because the shoes are a gun-metal grey. Batman’s strongest colorway isn’t his grey bodysuit but the indigo of his cowl and cape.

Plus I liked the movie ‘Iron Giant’. This is a DVD you need to copp for Hanukwanzamas if you don’t have it already.

The Iron Giant is a robot from outerspace who crash lands on Earth and befriends a boy who teaches him all about humanity. The movie is a cartoon that can get graphic at moments unlike anything that Disney has put out. The film examines how people treat one another as the Iron Giant tries to figure out what is the driving force for humankind.

At the end of the day the ‘Iron Giant’ is simply the story of a boy who loved a robot, and the robot who loved the boy enough to risk it all to protect him.

Computer Love In Real Life…

aiko

I am a little jealous of this dude LE TRUNG. Instead of being like the rest of us fanboys who happily collect action figures and pose them for music videos LE decided to make his own action figure. A life size fem-bot named Aiko. He has programmed her to speak English as well as Japanese, which was a bit curious since dude is a Vietnamese cat living in Canada.

Whatever is clever is what my moms always said. This dude has effectively solved his virginity issues by making another virgin. However, he better not let homegirl watch any television and definitely no internets because she will leave his ass for sure.

That is, as soon as she is programmed to walk. Now I see this programming pimp’s angle. Aiko will never walk out on him if he never motorizes her legs. Talk about ‘Love Lockdown’?

I say he still better watch out though because if her heart walks out the door then it doesn’t matter if she stays. You don’t want to fucks with an android chick with a cold heart. That is some heartless shit (no ‘Ye Tudda).

^^^ LOLz at homeboy trying to cover up the chubby that Aiko is giving him.

LE TRUNG is the freak of the week as he takes Aiko all about the town to cosplay conventions and strolls in the park. The best part is this story is that dude is taking orders to build more of these joints.

You couldn’t tell me nothing last night at the Marc Ecko holiday party. Free Ketel-1 from heavy handed barkeeps and some of the coolest MF’s evar. All my folks was in effect, especially my laaaaaaaaydeeeeeez.

ANNA is the truth, but JEN is that ride or die Chi chick. She might be from the Chi, but she ain’t no way shy. Peace to CARL, HOBBS and J ‘Che Guerilla’. A lot of up and coming cats was stuntin’ hard too. I’m excited for this city in 2009. There is so much energy and creativity. Plus beauty. Creative types always need their muses.

I blew out of the Ecko joint while the drinks were still pouring because I had to get to this secret Common concert on the Lower East Side.

The spot was this re-purposed church. I went to a Hennessy art show there a few years ago and met this painter chick who hated my politics when I told her that KEVIN POWELL was a two-bit shoeshine hustler. There are now three people that Black women look up to like some fucking holy trinity. BARACK, OPRAH and KEVIN fucking POWELL. That nigga is having a party tonight in the city and I will guarantee you that it is filled with the baddest Black broads that could squeeze their feet into a pair of high heels.

Anyhoo, last night. I caught a few Common songs and the what not but I flew the coup before KanYe came out and did whatever he did. The day job is the gift and the curse. I could never pay the mortgage and the maintenance of my co-operative apartment with my internets lifestyle. I have to remind myself of this when I am sitting in a 9:30am jobsite meeting.
