A LETTER FROM THE MANAGEMENT

0

I know you folks don’t want to hear about my money woes especially since I stay copping that so fresh and so clean from my favorite sneaker stores. The truth is that I don’t want to bother you either since we all are in the same boat floating in an ocean of debt.

Just don’t be too surprised when you see ad banners posted here in the near future. I will try my best to regulate every single company or corporation that uses this space. The ultimate purpose is have a website that pays for itself and everything that is required to maintain it. From bandwidth and domain registry to recordable DVD’s and snailmail postage, this site should be independent from my personal expenses.

Except my time investment, and yours as well. I want to give a special thank you to the six people who read this page daily.

We used to have ten folks that read everyday but then I said something bad about OPRAH, or white, and now I am back down to six readers. ERNIE what up? I know you got at least one book to sell too. This starving artist shit is fugazi (no rich, upper-class punk rock band). I gotta come up on a master plan to get my paper back in order.

I got an idea from the executive director of the Black Maria Film Festival. He said that every year he and his wife decide to incorporate a ghetto word into their vocabulary. Last year they finally accepted ‘Bling’. Guess which word they are going to choose for FY ’08?

> PrA’li <

That is the new spelling for the word ‘prah’lee’ which was formerly the word ‘probably’. I’ve added some new features which should hopefully allow the word to become stuffwhitepeoplelike.

As you can see with the revised spelling I’ve taken a stand on consonant and vowel conservation. We have cut down on the letters being used and the syllables being uttered. This helps the Earth because less greenhouse gases will be emitted due to less energy being spent on writing and saying the word.

You may not use the word too often but think about all the people who are tragically undecided.

Invest in a better future for all of our children. Click the ‘Pra’li’ button on the right and send me some spare PayPal. You would do it for NPR.

    Hey Dallas,

    I know more than six people check this site, I think it’s like 8 people. I kid, I kid. You know we got you, this blog is on point. Keep on doing ya thing. Peace.

  2. twerkolator says:

    i lurk a lot, but i always check in…

  3. sublicon says:

    I’m here about 10 times daily, to tell you the truth. Good old Safari allows me to open up all my hip-hop blogs at once, and it’s a morning ritual at least.

    Billy X. Sunday for life.

  4. Do what you gotta do. DP.com (and “The Story of Gangstalicious Part 2) is the only reason anyone checks for my rinky-dinky blog, so thanks for that.

    I check this site about ten times daily.

    How was Iron Man?

  5. Candice says:

    I’m on here all the time….even when you have nasty nekkid hoes up. LOL

    Keep grinding and yeah…we’re waiting for the Iron Man recap.

  6. evan says:

    I’ll have to Prah’lee before DP dot com hosts an Obama at the soup kitchen.

  7. 40 says:

    I’m deciding which route to go to playfully give you shit here…

    The “Pull Yourself Up By The Bootstraps!” or “Colored People Are Always Asking For Shit”.

    Its all love Mr. Penn and if you ever wanna have a DP.com SFU fundraiser via eBay auctions to get the scrilla up, I’ll donate a pair of classic goodies for some other yam foot sneaker fiend.

    If I can give to Obama who might not do shit for me, I can at least give to DP.com who actually does do shit for me.

  8. Dart_Adams says:

    That can’t be right! But it’s in a graph so it’s gotta be true. If you put it in a pie chart it’s just below the books of the Bible.

    Fuck books, KneeGrows DO NOT READ.
    I’m now selling a limited edition six volume set of “Rappers Gone Buck Wild”. Which includes several rappers getting head, several rappers drunk and fighting and several rappers getting arrested.
    I also have a rare OJ meets Kahllid Muhammad video I shot of OJ trying to be Black and 2 very famous macho assed Rappers (males) kissing (no not Birdshit and Lil Wang) and some very vulgar tongue kissing by a now famous actress/rapper/model/Butch Bitch and one of her ghetto sweeties back in 88. There is more and it will show some very big names are not very big(II) males. The set is limited to 100 copies and cannot be copied (thanks to COPYGUARD2008). Each 6 volume set is $200.00 but will sell later on EBAY for 10 times that amount.
    D A L L A S P E N N Rules this blog shit fo real pralee. Ernie P.

    Damm why’d you let me off my leash?
    8 books in 8 weeks
    Graffiti

    Punk
    Hip Hop
    Artwork and paintings and drawings
    Pop Rap and Soul
    Black History
    I barely sold enough books to break even. (see all my books at http://www.lulu.com)
    Got mad love and also got featured in the new issues of Vibe/Word Up!/ Superfly (Italy)/Wax Poetics and 106 & Park.
    Hopefullybetween my “Rappers Gone Buck Wild” and my 8 new books I can pay the rent, buy food and keep the lights on. If not, back to the streets robbing rappers/dj’s/B-Boys-Graf Artists. Treat all 5 elements equally. Ernie

  12. N.O. in my bloodstream says:

  13. I’m still here!

    …I may be here even more this summer when I’m stuck at the 9 to 5. That is, if the All Seeing Eye hasn’t blocked your shit from the server for possessing weapons of mass destraction.

    actually come to think of it, word to Candice, nekkid hoes aren’t too compatible with the office. Dammit!

  14. wax says:

    what about folks who read on the RSS – you prolly dont get those hits tracked right? I read almost 90% of my shit on the rss reader

    I feel you on the broke part. I fried my keyboard/audio interface in the studio and have no ducats to replace, so its back to pattern production and hand drawing in notes :/

  15. the_dallas says:

    Wax,
    Since I’m still in one piece I won’t call myself broke. I am dealing with perpetual personal deficits however.

  16. a-one says:

    lol those big face dead prez’s are great. especially the 2nd. the flat top needs to come back. not on me. but it needs to. i think i saw some college hooper with one during march madness but i coulda just made that up right now.

  17. Aunt Jackie says:

    Stay Up

  18. lola gets says:

    Hey, I hit this site at least once a day – and sometimes more than that, just to see if youve posted any more! Well, ok, lemme clarify that: I hit your blog up every time Im on the iNternets, which could be every day, sometimes could not be, lol. Hell, Im on your blog so much, I find that I often use some of the language that you use! Just wait for me to break out a post on G.O.A.T..

    I feel you on the brokeness though. I would share here, but Im a wee bit embarassed at the length and breath of my brokeness, so Im saving all my moneyless tales for my book. Maybe. Hehe.

    Pra’ali is an okay word, but it is just another lazy ass ebonic term signifying nothing.
    If you want an all purpose Black word (straight from London via Montego Bay) the word is FUCKERY. As in the Rev Wright debacle is pure FUCKERY.
    Faux FOX News is pure FUCKERY
    Lies that got us into Iraq are sheer FUCKERY
    Hillary Clinton’s whole campaign and her bullshit is FUCKERY.
    95% of Rap today is lame FUCKERY
    $5.00 a gallon for gas is raw FUCKERY
    19 cent sneakers being made in slave conditions in the third world and then sold by major corporations for $150.00 is greedy FUCKERY
    Police getting a get out of jail free pass is Brutal FUCKERY
    Al Shapton’s marches, pray in’s and endless sound bites are Jheri Curled FUCKERY
    MF’s not buying my 8 new books at http://www.lulu.com is Illerate FUCKERY.
    And my 6 volume set of DVD’s of two macho rappers kissing (ring the bells/scenario-hint hint-steroid rage) and my uncensored footage of R. Kelly is going to become Historic Fuckery. Ernie

  24. CeezDiem says:

    I prolly visit 2wice a day son.

    Along Came Prolly
    Prollyanna
    Prolly Wanna Cracka (my interracial pron screenplay)
    Prolly-O String Cheese (thats when you might maybe have some money coming your way, but mostlikely not really)
    etc
    etc

  25. the_dallas says:

    CeezDiem,
    Thats the thing about the futuristic shit I kick over here. Some heads just aint ready.

    If your prolly gets you through the day then stay in that lane.

    I dont want you to make this jump to the future if your spacesuit aint built for time travel and togetherness.

  26. Marvelous Mo says:

    Yo D,

    That site has to got be trash. There’s no way in hell 6 people frequent your page on a daily basis.

    Take a look at my History, my blog, and my BlackBerry…you will end up taking me to court on some Uma Thurman shit.

    oh yeah Happy Cinco de Mayo. I would get trashed tonight, but I’ll save it for Weds as I painstakenly listen to Gray-Z & Mary J @ the Garden…that’s assuming I don’t get arrested at the protest.

    Word yo…I was under the dryer fixing my wig when I was live on DP dot com and seen that 2 girls 1 cup post. I had hoes to the left and the right of me looking at me as if I was some damn freak.

    ^^Ernie,
    Word to everything, that word is the truth. I think I got wynter gordon on that word too.

    BTW, the way you are selling your “Rappers Gone Buck Wild” series makes me wanna cop it. I have to see how much change in the couch I can pull together to cop it though.

  29. Ernest Paniccioli says:

    Mo, Save your money for now, seems like some Savage BullDyke alleged “Actress/rapper/fat ass model” is getting a court order against my dvd that shows her doing a lingual exploration of another dim witted chicken head’s mouth. I may need the money for legal costs.
    And the male rappers are going to cry bloody murder when they see that the photographer they thought was passed out was shooting them and now they’re assed out.
    And Mr. Kelly is on film playing pocket pool for the camera circa 1992 and he was as sober as I was. Fuck em all, the more lawsuits the more money I’ll scoop off their dumb asses. Word to da herb! Ernie

    Keep doin what you do Dallas. I lurk in the shadows while you continue to shine the light. Contribution sent, in this case $$$ ain’t nothin but a number, word to Chi Pra’li.
