Yes my friends, your favorite Ratchet City representative took his 51/50 stimulus plan all the way to the House of Representatives (of Louisiana, to be clear and comedic.) It's hard for me to poke fun... well, difficult in the sense that I think HC is a real talented kid, and I wonder if he sees the humor in this, even though, lets face it, this is a rare opportunity. I'll let you guys weigh in on this one...

The Killer D's
So, while I've been working like a madman, I've turned to unlikely arenas to house my fun. Believe it or not, my high score's bee suffering as a result. I barely touch the 360 nowadays, what with Vanessa dominating the living room (we'll get to that one of these days). So, in order to get my media fix, I've turned to the DVD to save me (word to Chris Jericho) from boredom. The first show I got into was Dexter, a Showtime series based on the works of Jeff Lindsay. Dexter is a blood splatter specialist for the Miami-Dade police department, as well as a faux vigilante serial killer. The series focuses on his inability to come to terms with the very human emotions he swears not to have. Complete with a strong supporting cast and the beautiful Miami backdrop, I'd recommend this series to anyone looking for a change or pace fro the reality show cheese fests that plague the world of TV.
Also, I've gotten into the award-winning HBO series Deadwood, which ran for four seasons a few years ago on HBO. It focuses on the small mining camp located in South Dakota in 1876, and takes an urban spin on such historical characters as Wild Bill Hickock, Seth Bullock and Al Swearengen. Ian McShane portrays Swearengen, a local pimp who quickly becomes to character you root for, even as he plots to kill those in his way, beat whores who give him grief and berate his minions at every term. There are very few shows in which the very world seems to be as alive as the characters are, and this is one of em.
So what do you all think? Anything I'm missing? Any other shows out there worth the time to backtrack and get caught up on them?

Coming to terms...
What's really goin' on? The last few months have been crazy, so crazy that I've all but neglected the three of you who check this page for updates. Hopefully you will forgive me in time. I feel like personally, professionally and hell, even artistically, I've grown by leaps and bounds. But enough about the silly shit, what's been happening in this world of ours? My Black President hasn't done anything wrong, and for lots of folks not doing bad doesn't equal doing good. M opinion is that dude had very little room for error based on what he had to work with, but I'm not gonna fault anyone for NOT fuckin' up.
Then we got these boys out in Israel, losin' their goddamn minds, killin' everything in sight and actin' like things are supposed to be gravy. Someone email me a list of the things, products or otherwise that Israel makes, sells, etc. and I'll cut em' out of my wallet as well as my vocabulary.
Ol' punk-ass Kobe finally got his ring, and I'm applaud hard work, like we all should. Out of respect, that fact that he's a selfish, loudmouthed inconsiderate brat will come second to the fact that he is the most driven, determined entity in sports. Here's to you champ!
Chris Brown got a slap on the wrist for two-piecing his beau, and things seem to suggest she said, or did something harsh enough to push dude over the edge. Still wasn't ok,at all, but well, what's done is done... He wouldn't get away with puttin' his hands on any bitch I know, but that goes without saying...
So, just a few quick thoughts... I'm back at it folks, catch you o nthe flip.
