pic a plate: Thai Chili 88, Sicklerville, NJ

so this place we tried out is in some dumpy lookin strip mall but it had good reviews. this Asian cuisine place...more like Thai/Malaysian/Chinese/Viet place i think...called Thai Chili 88 in Sicklerville, NJ

where have i been?

i've been just exposed to Childish Gambino and i just heard his album, Culdesac. also heard his single, Freaks And Geeks, from his EP...and i'm REALLY, really impressed. beat selections, lyrics/skills wise - he's definately for real. i can't wait to listen to the other previous mixtapes/albums...and who'da thunk that he starred in 1 of my favorite comedy, Mystery Team :)

Childish Gambino...

this should be interestin...

i wanted to support my tattoo artist's band and music work so i bought an album from him with this drummer. they called themselves Erode And Disappear, who are basically a duo while their other members are on a break, i guess...which would form Northern Liberties

so these came in the mail the other day and to my surprise, he gave me 2 :)

hopefully i'll get a chance this weekend and see how this goes...should be way out my comfort zone O_O

yummo! take that Rachael Ray!

so my mom made this like a week ago and i forgot to post it...

it's a fried crepe...with sauteed pork and shrimp, onions, mushrooms...eaten with herbs and cucumbers and lettuce and with homemade fish sauce :D top it off with a Pepsi? oh yeah....hungry just typin about this

so my lady wanted to get a bite so bein the picky eaters we are, i had to do some research. i looked for local places and WilJax Famous Sandwiches in Oaklyn, NJ popped up with 100% people out of 9 liked the place. the menu looks great so sure enough we went there late afternoon

awesomeness

nothin like a woman who is determined and motivated. this here shows that (sorry for the poor quality @ night :()

9pm and finishin up her 3.5 miles run around the park and doin 1.5 around the track for her 5 miles run. what a trooper. i almost fainted after the 3.5 but she kept goin like it's a walk in the park...amazin though, gotta love it :)

ps
that's my girlfriend...it's not a random pic of somebody @ the park...lol i'm not a creep

so these came in the mail yesterday :)

yea...saw em online and decided to buy em, but of course - none in my size. good thing there's good ol' eBay where i can get em a bit pricier...it wasn't that bad though, i think it was an extra $10 total on eBay...not bad for a pair of Jordans 1 Retro :D

pic a plate: Texas Roadhouse, Sicklerville, NJ

there's a few places that you can go for a good steak. sure you can try your chain of Austrailian steakhouse out-in-the-back or what not but for real manly steaks, it has to be from Texas Roadhouse in Sicklerville, NJ

(not my pic...damnit)

roastin not the same

the Comedy Central Roast of Donal Trump aired on Comedy Central i think last week. i did catch it and it did live up to the rest of the previous roasts. hostin it was Seth McFarlane and the dais consisted of familiar faces such as Jeff Ross, Whitney Cummings, Lisa Lampanelli, Snoop Dogg, and surprise roaster Gilbert Gottfried. newer faces included Mike "The Situation" Sorentino (from Jersey Shore), Larry King, Marlee Matlin, Anthony Jeselnik, and Marlee's translator because she's deaf

the roast went well and everyone was hilarious from the usuals to Larry King, and surprisinly Marlee Matlin. i don't know who Anthony Jeselnik is but he killed too. in all fun, Donald Trump took it in stride because face it, he's a billionaire. he also had his last words and they were pretty funny. of course, he threw in alot about himself includin his pre-speech for a potential presidential canidate in 2012. oh boy...

however, the roast was just not the same. it was clear by several roasters who paid tribute to the late, great Greg Giraldo. his raw, on-point style surely made it a must have to hear and see durin a roast but it just wasn't the same without him. it was a fun night overall though and i'm glad that Comedy Central did special tribute for him later that week

ps
The Situation bombed like his career. it was so horrible that i couldn't barely watch it...finally glad that they decided to ask him to be on the dais so the audience and the world can see how pathetic and retarded he really is

pic a plate: Banana Leaf, Philadelphia, PA

so i was duped into goin to this restaurant called Banana Leaf in Philadelphia, PA. i was told it was just an Asian restaurant but it turned out it was Malaysian! it was cool though...located on Arch St between 10th and 11th...parkin was a bitch though cuz i had to use a parkin lot and shit was $13. *sigh* i know...but the food at the Banana Leaf was reasonable and affordable

(not my picture^...the rest, are)

sucker i am for St. Patrick's

just from watchin ESPN SportsCenter and seein highlights from the Chicago Bulls vs Washington Wizards for the St. Patrick's Day special jersey and i ended up buyin the green Bulls jersey :(

of course...that really only made way to push me to buy these Jordans i've been eyein but now have a reason to...*sigh*

...yea, almost $200 in 20 minutes...i'll be fuckin ecstatic when it comes though!! :D

R.I.P. Nate Dogg

Nate Dogg passed away March 15, 2011 due to some health complication due to his strokes. Nate was only 41-yr young and he was widely remembered for his melodic choruses. he was also a huge role player in the West Coast movement durin the NWA, Warren G, Snoop Dogg days. Nate Dogg will forever be missed and no one can regulate like he can.

the returnin of franchise era?

congrats to the Chicago Bulls for so far, leadin the Eastern Conference in the NBA over the Boston Celtics

it's awesome to see the Bulls gettin the recognition they were known for again. i'm gettin tired of the overrated Miami Heat or Celtics or New York Knicks and especially the Los Angeles Lakers or San Antonio Spurs...even though i like LeBron James, Dwayne Wade, Kobe Bryant, Carmello Anthony and Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobli. i just like the Bulls more and Derrick Rose is a beast!

go Bulls!!

me no see football?

well that's what it seems like as the final day for the negotiation between the NFLPA and the NFL about the CBA. after the 1st extension and a 2nd 7-days extension, the Union has declared "decertification", which i BELIEVE was to displaced them from the players and leavin them to fend for themselves in court and no longer represents them, and now the 2011-2012 season is officially in LOCKOUT!

DUN-DUN-DUN!

so what now? i don't know...and neither does everyone else. all i know is that they (union, NFL, every party that's involved) better get their acts straight because i and every fuckin person in America wanna see football! or else we gotta watch the Philadelphia Souls...eek!

LOL Chrisco

aka Chris Brown LOL

name 1st heard from 2dopeboyz

evilBay got me good

so Marvel Universe finally releases their variants of the series 1 Daredevil, Ms. Marvel (Moonstone outfit) and Warpath (X-Force costume)

...of course, you can't get them individually. you may be LUCKY to get one or two of them out of a case of 12...but then you'll have to pay extra for the 3rd one...which is over $100+ because the case of 12 is at least $70 and one of the variants will cost you. so i decided to go to eBay where everythin is more expensive than gas and got those 3 for $70 shipped. i figured, $20+ per figure: doable

well i was at Target yesterday and what do you know i find? the Warpath and Daredevil figure...$7.99 each...MOTHERFUCKER!! i fuckin hate waitin cuz the more you wait the more expensive these shit become but fuckin damn it...i ended up buyin both so no one else can have em!!

*sigh*...that's my lesson for the months. whatever happens, you'll get fucked regardless

ps
i still need these: :-)

*this Skrull is a variant with the Skrull language on the stand behind the figure

















UPDATE: now it looks like i need a Ronin variant too...the dark one...MOTHERFUCKER!!

fresh ink: darkseid

new ink, courtesy of mr. Kevin Riley. i actually got this last month so everythin kinda healed pretty nicely. it's a pic of Darkseid and it took him about...3.5 hours for this...awesomely painful!
