My sister and I got together so we decided to tape us jam sessioning on my kick ass phone, Nokia N95! Woot!
Enjoy us singing Always Be My Baby!

Yes, I know, my sister is awesome.

First off, I’m going to say that it’s impossible to find a particular video that wouldn’t illicit any ill feelings towards any style when it comes to the topic of martial arts. So here’s the best I can do for this particular topic:

Let me just give a brief overview on the video. It’s Kyokushin Karate vs. San Shou (Shorin-ken) but it’s not world class fighters fighting, but 11 year olds battling it out. I wanted to show this because if you really watch them, the kids fully envelop their styles and move so naturally within it. Sometimes, kids like these show a better understanding and application of the basics of martial arts rather than more experienced fighters.

To which I want to lead into the main topic of this post, the difference between learning Martial Arts or Martial Sports. With the great boom of interest towards MMA with the help of UFC and WEC, are we seeing the end of the appreciation of traditionally taught martial arts?

Hey guys, I know, the internet is saturated with Michael Jackson shit, so I’m sorry to add to it; BUT!!! This is for a good friend of mine.
Well, I have a friend in Houston, and he and his older brother are great DJs and they made a live mix last night in tribute to MJ so please check them out. They’re a premier DJing group down in Houston so you know their mix is hot!

(Aside from some of the messy beat juggles, it’s all gravy! Haha, sorry Flip!)

Anyways, click the photo to listen to their mix!

Farewell, King of Pop.

This was my favorite even though everyone prefers Thriller.


Alright look, sure, he was the King of Pop – and his music has influenced today’s songs as well as many of the singers but yoooo.

Seriously? I received 13 texts and 4 IMs stating his passing away. Hell, even Obama didn’t get this much press or word of mouth when he became president. Hah.

Anyways, Mike. Peace. No more problem where you are, you’ll be in our hearts and our playlists. Thanks again for the great and awesome songs that you contributed and goodbye.

ragu copydon’t these colors look great? do you think i would spend any time picking them out? of course not. and you don’t want to think about colors either. you’re putting together a website for some god awful company run by a man in suspenders. meanwhile you’re trying to tell him that he needs more unique hits, but he’s only concerned that obama is going to take away his television.  pictaculous has a great new color tool to work with, allowing you to look at the dominant colors you’ll be needing when matching flat color swatches to a photograph. simple color brochures, website buttons and even posterwork could benefit from this… (more…)

Hey, sorry again for not having the time to post this week. I always feel like I should post something meaningful everytime I log on but there have been days where I sit here and stare at this blank slate thinking about what I’ve been going through.

Well anyways, I found out recently that I am a superhero. I apparently am the Master of Bad Timing.

Watch my show weekly! >_<
