What's Hot in the Streets?

80 hour weeks, that’s what’s hot in the streets. Working weekends? That’s hotter than Slim Thug. (Ok, getting out of my 2005 mode). I’m regretting making that decision to major in a half business/half engineering education because having technical skills while still being able to half manage something is a very marketable skill. And by marketable, I mean that people will put more and more work onto you because you’re the only capable person to do it.
I’m coming around to the fact that it’s not a bad thing that we missed a Kobe-Lebron finals because it’s not like I would have been able to see it anyway. Correction. I could see the last 6 minutes of each game because that’s what time I got home. Anyway, in lieu of me writing something, I’m going to leverage (do you see that, I’m still in proposal writing mode) my brothers. Here’s an e-mail I got from J-Man:

“I couldn't really think of anyone else who would really appreciate this.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQbB2VTLshYIt's the girl Kobe raped raping about being raped. There's got to be some lines in there that deserve to be on your blog.”

The Barney Show, the go to place on the internet for Kobe rape jokes. That’s copied and pasted, and I really enjoyed the grammatical incorrectness by J-Man, using the verb raping as opposed to rapping. Well done. For the record, I’ve done research on that youtube video and it’s not really Kobe’s conquest. (Speaking of Kobe, everyone’s talking about his legacy. I’m really stuck on if the Lakers win, does Kobe become the greatest athlete ever who’s been arrested for sexual assault? Does he take the title from Iron Mike? I’ve been stuck on this for about 24 hours now. What about Jack Johnson? Does violating the Mann Act for bringing a white woman across state lines for immoral purposes count in this? And if you’re asking why J-Man immediately sent that to me, it’s because I was able to recount a Congressional Act from 1913 that impacted a boxer that same year off the top of my head.)

Chubb Rock stepped his game up by leaving me a text last night: “Shines has a Help Wanted: Irish Need not Apply sign.” You know, I do miss the West End sometimes. Not that lack of parking, or having douchebags at your bars, but for things like that.

Alright, that’s all I got for now.
