patois patronage pirogues sour
1. Dealt with Hurricane Issac this week. It reminded me of my first hurricane experience, watching the rains fall from the living room door of a dark muggy hot house. I would open the fridge more than need be just for 5 seconds of cool air. This was quite a windy experience, lost power for a few days just to make the experience authentic. Glad that's over with for me now, my thoughts to my city as most are still in dark, attempting to sleep in conditions most are three decades removed from.
2. As always, it will be what it is for it can be nothing other than itself.
3. Romney seriously followed Clint Eastwood's monologue at the RNC last week?? Clint loses his mind, meandering through the fog of his typecast character, addressing an empty chair on national television. I can't believe this circus is able to raise funds via donations. Totally bizarre. Shit's a bad acid trip and lives are being lost.
4. Looking forward to Flying Lotus's new album and Jay Electronica's 1st major label album release at the beginning and end of October respectively. Certainly haven't looked forward to albums dropping since a long while ago.
5. The beauty of calling someone on the carpet about their shit, is that, if done carefully, it can be done without uttering one word specifically referencing the matter. You know that smile says, "eh compadre, you're fucking up." Can't perfect this soon enough.
6. Thinking of teaching high school maybe possibly next school year. Which means I'll need to work on a "commanding presence" which means I'll need to shape up. So I may be one of those New Year's gym people but without the resolution. I'd start before the year ends but I dine well in the colder months so I'm not sure how the two actions would balance. In short, teaching may actually help add a few months to my life net gain. Go Imperialism!!
7. If you don't know an intelligent, literate, stable angry African american man, you should find one to observe. Cause what kind of life worth repeating can be lead without that uncomfortable reality a mere sensory trigger away.
8. I rant on and on about a slew of international affairs but theses events are shifts in long running conversations I've only recently been made aware. In short, it is best to keep quiet when you know not of what you speak.
9. Don't ever pull the macho man role with your woman in front of me. I'm not going to check you on it, that's her task. I will however find someway to hold your repressive, regressive, patriarchal thinking on a naked stage and make a mockery of your failures. It's quite the exchange, if you ever come across me in the middle of this, just listen with all your senses.
10. Ray Liota will always be the Italian American Mafia's PR guy to me. Always. You mention any of that ish, that's the face I see. He handles the part too damn well.
