I DID IT, WHAT ABOUT YOU?...



it took me about 15-20 minutes total, but it was worth it for several reasons:

1: i can complain because i actually got off my ass to do something about it.

2: the look on white peoples face when a 6'2 black man with a Gucci link, dookie rope, two-finger ring, Fila track jacket, Cazals and Mars Blackman 4's stands in line like you don't know who he's voting for and all the black people winking and giving me the "right on, brutha" nod. lol.

3: seeing how my great grandfather was forced to answer UNANSWERABLE shit in order to vote, like "How many bubbles are in a bar of soap?" or "If it rains for 2 hours in Mississippi, how many rain drops fell in 1 hour?", i see that i don't have to go through ANY of that bullshit and to not vote would be a spit in the faces of he and my great grandmother. R.I.P and Love O'dell and Vie.

4: muthafuckas DIED so i can have the right to do this, so why not exercise my right?

and finally....SO MUTHAFUCKAS CAN STOP ASKIN ME "DID YOU VOTE?"!!!!!!!

THE MUTHAFUCKIN' SHOGUN OF HARLEM!!!

October 30, 2008




Samuel L. Jackson is set to star as the bad guy in Columbia Pictures' remake of Berry Gordy's 1985 cult classic The Last Dragon, says The Hollywood Reporter. Jackson will play Sho'nuff, the Shogun of Harlem, a role played in the original by the late Julius Carry.

"I'm a huge fan of the original and look forward to bringing Sho'Nuff into the 21st century," Jackson said.

Writing the screenplay as well as producing is Dallas Jackson, who heads up the urban family label DJ Classicz with Davis. Wu-Tang Clan's RZA is co-producing.

The updated plot will be along the same lines of the original, centering on young martial arts student Leroy Green in his quest through the streets of New York to achieve the highest level of martial arts accomplishment, known as the Last Dragon. Those who achieve the high ranking possess the Glow, making them the greatest fighter alive.

The project will take a new look at "Last Dragon" coinciding with the 50th anniversary of Motown next year. Davis Entertainment's John Davis and Gordy's son Kerry Gordy are producing.
