Word As Bond
Darn. I don't have much to say this week. I've been doing a lot more "doing" and less thinking--a good thing. I've signed up for real estate classes so I can get my sales license and add some more money to the Herbert Holler Fund. I wrapped up my Basic Commercial Course at Weis Barron, and need to get me some headshots soon, so you can see my big fat head on the television and I can add even more money to the Herbert Holler Fund.

Friday night at Freedom was packed. 400 plus people. Dope music all night. Big up to Qool Marv for a tight set. "Many styles! Many styles!" And thank you for playing the "Crazy In Love" original. That's about as close as they'll come to it, that's for damn sure. Big shout to Oluwaseye and Les Nubians for dropping through and givin' a little love. Also shouts to Dominique Romain, Francis Poku, DJ Dallas Green and DJ Excel. Now ... wassup with my white people? Why y'all leave at 2AM all the dang time? Is it the dancehall? C'mon ... hang out. Some of y'all do, but most of y'all run home before you turn to a pumpkin, perpetuating this racial phenomenon! I call it the "Let's leave, dude" phenomenon.

Saturday at Lot 61 was crazy, too. Herbert's been taking Prednisone due to some abnormal sinus activity, and Saturday night before the gig, he accidentally drank a big mug of coffee before the gig, and man! I was sweating and bouncing and singing and shouting and I think talking in a few different languages at one point in time. Someone came up to the booth, and I don't think I saw them, but they must've saw me, acting crazy, jumping all around and singing, and I think they got scared because they ran off before asking for the new Beyonce song or whatever they prolly wanted to hear.

Peace, love, good health, happiness, and the phrase of the week: Just Do It!
