Driving So Slow, But BK is From Texas

So I found out that my parents are looking into getting me a car for graduation and I believe they're lookin at

An Audi A5 Convertible Coupe

OR

A BMW M6 Convertible Coupe

Either way, I'm getting this license plate:

December Means Snow, Christmas, & Thinking Forward To Beach Season

SO AFTER PUTTING IT OFF FOR SO MANY MONTHS AND SEMESTERS, I'M FINALLY GETTING MY ACT TOGETHER... I JUST BOUGHT A GYM MEMBERSHIP AT XSPORT FITNESS THIS PAST MONDAY AND GOT MYSELF A NICE FITNESS EVALUATION. I'VE HIT UP THE GYM EVERYDAY AND ACCORDING TO MY TRAINER, I SHOULD LOOK LIKE THE SITUATION OR TAYLOR LAUTNER (WHICHEVER YOU PREFER) BY APRIL.

BEACH WEEK IS GONNA BE THE SHIZNIT. FISTPUMP LIKE CHAMPS...

Fed Up

DJ KHALED FEAT. USHER, YOUNG JEEZY, RICK ROSS, AND DRAKE.

ENJOY

Jake Olson

It is my opinion that ESPN has probably the most thoughtful, well-done programming on television. Yes, they air sports almost 24/7 and you see the occasional Pro Bowling Association Tournament or the Table Tennis World Championships, but what's more important is that they go out and do really interesting, heartfelt human interest stories.

The latest story aired this past Saturday Morning on College Game Day (November 28, 2009). The piece is about an extremely courageous young 7th grade, Jake Olson. He has been a USC Trojans fan his entire life... and his entire life he's been battling retinoblastoma, a rapidly developing cancer of the retina. Jake had his left eye removed and after battling 8 different stints with cancer, it was clear that his right eye had to be removed as well.

Before the surgery, his only wish was to see the USC Trojans Football team one more time. The team ended up embracing him and Jake's wish came true beyond anything.

In the spirit of the Holiday Season, if you are able, please donate to The Jimmy V Fund and/or St. Jude's Children's Hospital.

A Letter to UPC

Dear Friends,

I feel swindled.

If you haven't already heard. There were only 450 tickets available for the Wale concert. Why is this? Because UPC thinks it's a smart (and not a money-losing) situation to bring GirlTalk to an empty JPJ and put Wale, who GQ magazine said is the next Jay-Z, in the Student Activities Building. How this is in anyway a good move, I could not tell you.

I wrote a letter to UPC & PKG Concerts yesterday and I'm awaiting their response. I would ideally like to post both the unabridged, unalterd version of my initial letter and then post the unabridged, unaltered response from them, if I get one. If this fails, I want to try and get the Cav Daily to post my letter.

-MJ

Attention:Deficit VS Before I Self Destruct

VS


SO THE LONG-AWAITED DAY IS HERE... WALE, WITH HIS FRESHMAN ALBUM, ATTENTION:DEFICIT, BACKED BY KANYE'S G.O.O.D. MUSIC LABEL, FACES OFF AGAINST RAP JUGGERNAUT, 50 CENT, WHO ALSO RELEASED HIS ALBUM TODAY, ENTITLED BEFORE I SELF DESTRUCT.

SO WHO HAS THE BETTER ALBUM? I'LL GIVE A BREAKDOWN HERE:

AT A TIME WHEN ARTISTS (OR THEIR GHOSTWRITERS) ARE CUTTING THROUGH THE RIGMAROLE OF LONG-GESTATING PUBLICITY VIA TWITTER , WALE ANNOUNCED HIS NEW ALBUM TITLE VIA A PHOTO OF SHOES. THAT TYPE OF FRESHNESS PERVADED THE DC RAPPER’S TAKE ON AMERICAN INSTITUTIONS LIKE SEINFELD AND HIP-HOP’S ONE-UP CULTURE ON 2008’S THE MIXTAPE ABOUT NOTHING . HIS CLEVER SONIC HIJACKS GO GLOBAL WITH ATTENTION DEFICIT. WALE CLAIMS THE NEW ALBUM’S MONIKER IS IN REFERENCE TO A CRUMBLING MUSIC INDUSTRY THAT IS PRODUCING WHACK, DISPOSABLE TUNES: “NOBODY PAYS ATTENTION AND I’M TRYING TO CHANGE IT.” DESPITE THIS, FANS ARE DEFINITELY LENDING THEIR EARS TO THE ARTIST BORN AS OLUBOWALE VICTOR AKINTIMEHIN FOLARIN. DEFICIT FEATURES PRODUCTION FROM MARK RONSON, GLITCH MOB, AND DAVID SITEK. ASIDE FROM HIS POPULAR COLLABO-SINGLE CHILLIN' WITH LADY GAGA, 90210, TV IN THE RADIO, AND PRETTY GIRLS FEATURING GUCCI MANE, ARE FRESH TRACKS... MAYBE WALE'S GOT SOMETHING HERE WITH INCORPORATING DC-POPULAR GO-GO MUSIC.
RATING:

THE PRESSURE IS ON 50 CENT. AFTER LOSING A VERY PUBLIC SALES BATTLE WITH KANYE WEST, HE HAS PROMISED THAT BEFORE I SELF DESTRUCT, HIS FOURTH STUDIO ALBUM, WILL REVOLUTIONIZE HIP-HOP, IT WILL BE THE CULMINATING STATEMENT OF THE FIRST PHASE OF HIS MUSIC CAREER, AND THAT IT IS A COMPANION PIECE TO HIS FIRST FEATURE DIRECTING EFFORT. 50 CENT HAS DESCRIBED BEFORE I SELF DESTRUCT AS “DARKER AND MORE AGGRESSIVE,” WITH FEWER GUEST APPEARANCES AND A CONCEPT THAT WILL SET THE NEXT PHASE OF HIS MUSICAL CAREER. “GET UP,” THE FIRST SINGLE FROM THE ALBUM, WAS PRODUCED BY SCOTT STORCH. LET ME JUST SAY THAT A COUPLE MORE GUEST APPEARANCES WOULD HAVE HELPED THI ALBUM. 50 CENT IS MY MAN, WITHOUT A DOUBT. I HAVE MAD RESPECT FOR THE JAMAICA-QUEENS RAPPER, BUT IT SEEMS THAT HE CAN’T REACH THE PINNACLE OF HIS RAP CAREER THAT HE ACHIEVED WITH GET RICH OR DIE TRYIN’. MOST OF THE ALBUM HAS LESS-THAN-“REVOLUTIONARY” BEATS AND IT SEEMS LIKE I’VE HEARD THESE SOME OF THE LYRICS BEFORE ON A COUPLE TRACKS. HOWEVER, 50 MASTER’S THE HIGH-PITCH-SAMPLE WITH “DO YOU THINK ABOUT ME”. FIRE TRACKS ARE ALSO PROVIDED BY DR. DRE – “DEATH TO MY ENEMIES”, “OK. YOU’RE RIGHT”, AND A SICK COLLABO WITH EMINIEM (“PSYCHO”). OVERALL, THIS IS A PRETTY ALRIGHT ALBUM.
RATING:

FINAL DECISION: WALE WINS ONE FOR DC, MARYLAND, AND VIRGINIA... AND MUSIC IN GENERAL.

6 Games, 5 Rings, 4 Yankees... 27th Heaven

A deep and intimidating lineup (Melky Cabrera was the only regular with an OPS+ below league average), a deep and intimidating payroll, but a pitching staff that was neither deep nor intimidating. Still, we had a heck of a lineup, and CC Sabathia is a legit ace. Remember back on May 12 when we were 15-17 and 6½ games out of first place? You were mocking us at the time, weren't you? You know you were. So, if you hate the Yankees, it's probably your fault they won. We took that mocking and spit it right back in your face.

The 2009 World Series was most definitely a Fall Classic. From #13 taking control of the ALDS & ALCS with monster numbers to Johnny Damon stealing 2nd... and 3rd in Game 4, this was one of the greatest postseasons in MLB history. A-Rod ended all questions and silenced the second-guessers when he performed like the $275 Million dollar athlete he is. His legend is complete, he can only add to his numbers now. Johnny Damon, though aging, showed glimpses of his younger days with clutch hitting and base running for the Yankees. And Matsui? What do you say about Godzilla? With only 13 at-bats in the WS, he batted .615. No, not a typo, he was batting .615. You know who the only other player in MLB history to have batted over .600? The Babe. Mark Teixeira also performed with some outstanding offense.

Most importantly, the core of the Bronx Bombers, the captains of the team, were playing like it was 1998 all over again. Derek Jeter, hands down the best SS in baseball and one of the greatest of all time, averaged over .400. Posada, the Yankee veteran catcher who was backing up his then-teammate/now-coach in 1996 was great hitting both ways. Andy Pettite, on 3 days rest, made it deep into the game, humiliating his Phillies counterpart Pedro Martinez who played like a piece of scrap metal. And when the bullpen opened in the 8th and chants of "ENTER SANDMAN" started, I got chills. There's no better feeling than to have the greatest closer of all time finishing up the game for you. With a full count and 2 outs, Mariano Rivera threw a fastball to Shane Victorino who hit a ground ball to the second baseman Cano who flipped it to Teixeira for the final out. This core of four Yankee stars, after the Game 6 win last night, have earned 5 rings together as teammates.

i've waited - impatiently - since the last WS win in the 2000 Subway Series against the crosstown rival Mets to see us crowned World Champions. There's a reason ex-Yankee player Joe Girardi chose the number 27 for his uniform, and in his second season as the Yankee skipper, he helped The Boss earn the Yanks' 27th World Championship.

Hey Pedro, The Pinstripes are your daddy... And you got SPANKED!

MJ Bets, Hilarity Ensues

So I'm currently sitting in my class, bored out of my mind... Literally, an AIDS hospice is more lively than the discussion in class right now.
So what does MJ do when he gets bored? Usually I'd go to bars, hoping there is an open bar I could take advantage of. But then again, I can't just leave this class - the rows are too narrow and I'm not about to awkwardly walk out - plus the sun isn't down, nor is it the weekend. This is where the internet goes from being a useful tool to a magical gold mine:

I'm at this site, ATDHE.net, which is essentially, a Watch-Every-Sport-And-TV-Show-Live website. I find that there is some obscure horse racing on, so what do I do? Yes, I did in fact find an online gambling site and bet on the races I was watching. But not just any bets, none of those retarded "place or show bets". No, instead I'm making up wild $10 bets that I have no idea how I made up. I'm triple boxing trifectas, double boxing exactas, parlaying quinellas to go towards a boxed perfecta, I'm even making stuff up about buying put options on bets--it was sweet, rediculous bedlam.

Within 25 minutes, I'm up $350, and decide to call it in so I don't end up like the losers in Vegas who leave Sin City having to sell their blood plasma and kidneys on the black market to pay off what they'd lost. Then, of course my teacher looks at me and asks me a question about how the radio has become something vital that we use today, but to relate my answer to the readings. Undaunted, I say, "Well, [Author] said you can see the internet as a two-way radio. For example, I was just on a betting site communicating with a bookie and within 25 minutes I turned a series of $10 bets into $350. He obviously communicated back the amount of my winnings. Thus, digital two-way radio."

The entire class erupts in laughter. I am a king of the classroom, basking in my glory -- Hey, I'm up a bunch of money and the class is eating this up, you'd love it too.

The look on my professor's face is priceless. She simply looks at me and says, "See me after class. I want to know how you did that. I love horse racing." The MJ Luck ceases to amaze.


Is this my life? Am I really here?

Tucker!!!!

HERE'S TUCKER, MY NEW 8-WEEK OLD GOLDEN RETRIEVER PUPPY!!! I'M FOSTERING HIM FOR A LITTLE WHILE.
AND YES, FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE WONDERING, I DID INDEED NAME MY DOG AFTER TUCKER MAX.

The Toys Are Back In Town

A BIT OF MY CHILDHOOD IS COMING BACK. SHORTLY AFTER I GRADUATE IN MAY 2010, I HAVE TO OWN UP TO BEING A REAL ADULT. HOWEVER, JUST ABOUT A MONTH AFTER I DEPART UVA, I WILL GET TO BE 7 YEARS OLD AGAIN... ON JUNE 18, 2010 I KNOW I'LL BE THE FIRST PERSON IN THE MOVIES TO WATCH THE 3RD PART OF THE TOY STORY SAGA.

TOM HANKS AND TIM ALLEN COME BACK TO VOICE WOODY & BUZZ LIGHTYEAR AND I GET TO ENJOY ANOTHER DISNEY-PIXAR CLASSIC!

I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU, BUT I'M READY TO UNLEASH THE FURY!

Feast Your Eyes On This

I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT PURPOSE SEAN KINGSTON SERVES IN THE MUSIC WORLD FOR A MINUTE NOW . . . AND I STILL HAVEN’T COME UP WITH ANYTHING BUT WHEN I DO YOU WILL BE THE FIRST TO KNOW. UNTIL THEN, LET’S SIT HERE AND DAYDREAM ABOUT HIS SUCCULENT TITTAY GRAVY AND THOSE CHOCOLATE PAWS OF HIS.

I Be Shittin' On You Hoe

HIGH NOON IS THE BEST TIME FOR SHADE! THE MASCOT FOR THE CLEVELAND INDIANS RECENTLY SPOKE TO HIP HOP WEEKLY ABOUT HIS DISPLEASURE FOR UNCLE CECIL’S NEW PERSONA. TAKE A NUMBER, LLOYD.
“I DON’T FUCK WITH HOLLYWOOD BITCHES AND SHE’S LIKE ONE OF THE CHICKS THAT’S JUST CHANGED ALONG THE WAY WITH THE FAME AND THE MONEY AND ALL OF THAT. I DON’T REALLY GET DOWN WITH HER ANYMORE ON SOME REAL SHIT. THE TRUTH HURTS, BUT IT WILL SET YOU FREE. BUT I WISH HER ALL THE BEST.”

It's Like Perma-MJLateNite

AT THE RISK OF SOUNDING PREDICTABLE I’M A BIT DOTTY ABOUT YAYOI KUSAMA’S LATEST CREATION – AN INSTALLATION OF HER TRADEMARK SPOTS IN COMME DES GARCONS’ NEW CONCEPT SPACE, SIX, DESIGNED BY REI KAWAKUBO, ON THE SECOND FLOOR OF COMME’S STORE IN OSAKA, JAPAN.

KUSAMA’S WORK IS DISARMINGLY SIMPLE AND CHARMING, PRINCIPALLY BECAUSE OF ITS SIMPLICITY, CREATING AND TRANSFORMING ENVIRONMENTS WITH A BLANKET OF POLKA DOTS. SHE CROPPED UP IN LONDON’S HAYWARD GALLERY EXHIBITION, WALKING IN MY MIND, EARLIER IN THE SUMMER, WHERE SHE COVERED A ROOM AND A SERIES OF OBJECTS IN A CARTOONISH TOADSTOOL PATTERN OF RED BACKGROUND AND WHITE SPOTS.

HER WORK FOR SIX IS EQUALLY FANTASTICAL THOUGH A LITTLE MORE SOPHISTICATED. IN A DARKENED ROOM SHE HAS CREATED A SERIES OF COLOURED DOTS, PROJECTING OVER ALL THE FURNITURE AND PEOPLE WHO INHABIT IT, ENCOMPASSING EVERYTHING THAT INHABITS IT IN A CONTINUOUS FORM OF PERFORMANCE ART. TO KICK START PROCEEDINGS, A DINNER WAS HELD AMONGST THE BRIGHT SPOTS ON THE OPENING NIGHT. IN ANOTHER ROOM SHE HAS HUNG SOME OF HER RECENT SEMINAL CANVASES, WITH A MIRROR THAT DISTORTS AND REFLECTS AS YOU MOVE ALONG THE GALLERY SPACE.

SIX, NAMED AFTER COMME’S MAGAZINE PUBLISHED BETWEEN 1991-1998, WILL HOST DIFFERENT EXPERIENTIAL EXHIBITIONS EVERY FEW MONTHS, THE NEXT SCHEDULED FOR NOVEMBER. TAKING THE SYMBOLIC CONNOTATIONS OF THE NUMBER 6 AS ITS LEAD, AS A NUMBER IMPLYING INTUITION OR FLAIR, THE SPACE IS NOT INTENDED AS JUST A REGULAR GALLERY SPACE, BUT MORE OF AN ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH ARTISTS CAN EXPRESS THE SCOPE OF THEIR ENTIRE CREATIVE VISION.

Wear The Streets - Literally

DC LIFE HITS US WITH A TEASER OF THEIR FORTHCOMING HOLIDAY 2009 COLLECTION.

What Happened to All the Celebrities? THE FAME KILLED THEM

SO MY BROTHER AND I JUST BOUGHT OUR PRESALE TICKETS FOR THE UPCOMING FAME KILLS: FEATURING LADY GAGA & KanYeWest TO BE HELD ON WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 30, 2009 AT THE VERIZON CENTER IN MY HOMETOWN, WASHINGTON DC. THIS CONCERT IS GOING TO BE EPIC AND LIKE NONE BEFORE.
KANYE IS AN ULTRA-PERFECTIONIST AND HIS TOURS ARE SOME OF THE MOST ELABORATE, CRAZY-CREATIVE SET DESIGN, POWERFUL CONCERTS YOU COULD SEE.
IT'S ALSO RUMORED THAT KID CUDI AND/OR DC-NATIVE WALE WILL OPEN. EITHER WAY, I'M PSYCHED BEYOND BELIEF, AND I'M GONNA BE STANDING AT A ROPED OFF VIP-AREA AT THE STAGE AND I'M HOPING TO BE CALLED ON STAGE TO DO A SONG WITH YEEZY. (I CAN DREAM!)
THE LAST TIME I SAW KANYE WAS IN 2008 AT NISSAN PAVILLION IN BRISTOW, VIRGINIA FOR THE SUMMER GLOW IN THE DARK TOUR FEATURING N.E.R.D. & PHARRELL, LUPE FIASCO, RIHANNA, AND YEEZY. UP TO THAT POINT, IT WAS WRITTEN IN NEWSPAPERS AND MAGAZINES ACROSS THE COUNTRY THAT THERE HAD NEVER BEEN A CONCERT THIS ELABORATE OR AWSMAZING EVER... I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT WEST+GAGA HAVE IN STORE FOR US THIS DECEMBER. HAPPY HOLIDAYS INDEED!


HERE ARE SOME OF MY PICTURES FROM THE GLOW IN THE DARK TOUR:

I Really Miss...

HANDS DOWN ONE OF THE BEST ANIMATED MOVIES EVER MADE! IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN IT YET, DO YOUR INNER-BOY OR GIRL A FAVOR AND WATCH IT.

The Paraty House

By Marcio Kogan Architects.

Paraty House’s two reinforced concrete boxes, sit atop each other, connected on the mountainside of one of the islands of the colonial city of Paraty and Angra dos Reis (between São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro), like two modern prisms between the large colossal stones of the Brazilian coast.

The building projects outward from the mountain, almost onto the beach, in an 8m cantilever. The house finds balance in the topography of the land, creating an extensive open doorway and living space in the practically untouched nature. Paraty House features a furniture collection showcasing 20thcentury design, including works by many well-known artists.

The residents arrive by boat. After stepping out onto the sand a metallic bridge positioned over a crystal-lined reflecting pool leads to a set of stairs connecting to the lower volume. This volume contains the living room, kitchen and service area. The continual internal area has a 27m span and huge glass windows to take advantage of the view of the sea.

The same entrance stairs also lead to the upper volume that houses the bedrooms. In the front part of the house, retractile panels of eucalyptus sticks protect the bedrooms from the sun. The areas that face the mountain have small internal patios with zenithal lighting, and use exposed reinforced concrete, which grants a striking texture to the walls.

The entire top of the house is covered with terraces, used as observation decks for the residents, and as a garden for sculptures, medicinal plants and edible herbs.

SO ONCE AGAIN, MY BOY KANYE SHOWED HIS MORE UN-DOPE SIDE LAST NITE @ THE 2009 MTV VMAS. HE CAME ON STAGE AS TAYLOR SWIFT WAS GIVING HER ACCEPTANCE SPEECH FOR FEMALE VIDEO OF THE YEAR. KANYE CAME ON STAGE AND SAID, "SORRY, I'LL LET YOU FINISH. I JUST WANTED TO SAY BEYONCE HAD ONE OF THE GREATEST VIDEOS OF ALL TIME" AND HANDED SWIFT THE MIC BACK AND WALKED OFF STAGE. HE APOLOGIZED TO HER MOTHER THAT EVENING BACKSTAGE AND IS APOLOGIZING TO HER TODAY.

NOW THAT THE FACTS HAVE BEEN TOLD, I WANT TO COME TO THE AID OF MY BOY YEEZY. I'M NEVER THE ONE TO PURPOSELY MAKE SOMEONE FEEL BAD OR HUMILIATE THEM, BUT TO EVERYONE WHO'S HATING BIGTIME ON KANYE SAYING HE'S NOT A REAL ARTIST OR HE SUCKS OR CANT RECOGNIZE REAL TALENT, SHUT UP! HE WAS RIGHT... B HAD ONE OF THE GREATEST MUSIC VIDEOS OF ALL TIME AND MTV EXCUSE ME RTV (REALITY TELEVISION, SINCE I CANT REMEMBER THE LAST TIME THEY PLAYED A MUSIC VIDEO) GAVE IT NO AIRPLAY OR NOMINATION BUT SHE WON VIDEO OF THE YEAR? HOW DOES THAT MAKE ANY SENSE? THIS IS WHY I HATE MTV... ALSO, BLACK EYED PEASE HAVE BEEN #1 FOR 23 WEEKS STRAIGHT, AND THEY DON'T EVEN GET NOMINATED? COME ON.

MTV, ONCE AGAIN, YOU FAIL. LET BET & THE GRAMMYS HANDLE MUSIC/MUSIC VIDEO AWARDS, BECAUSE AT LEAST THEY STILL HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH MUSIC.
