There's just something sinister about these mothafuckas to me. I was creepin' out into the streets at 3:30am. I opened the back door and there that mothafucka was, lookin' at me like a Geico commercial. Shocked, I slammed the door real fast. Went out the other one because the last thing I want is lizards in the crib. Normally those mothafuckas jump outta the way when they see you. But this one wasn't moving for shit. I threw a cup of water on it, almost picked it up by its tail. When I got back from the bar, it was gone.

Yo, I can't even eat the burgers at fast food joints anymore. My shit taste sooo good. This one with scrambled eggs on top always makes my stomach happy. But check it out. a couple thick pre-made pattys only hit for $2.67. About the price of thin pattied Big Macs. Couple broads have called to see what was up but tonight, Friday night ya boy done cooked burgers, got nachos and salsa on deck. Cracked open a 2 litre of RC cola and I'ma eat and watch T.V. till I pass out. Get up in the morning and jump into the ocean for a swim. Tomorrow night, I'll hit up a few bars and see what the women are lookin' like. What am I talkin' about. I'll probably wake up at 4am and make a titty bar run lol. Food, relaxation and hoes. What more can a nigga want on a Friday night.

So I've been living in Miami for over 4 months now. It's funny how after you've gotten settled into a new spot you can start to spot tourist and people that aren't from where you're at. I laugh now at how when I moved to L.A. niggaz could look at me and tell I wasn't from there. It got to a point where I had started to hate taking photos or video of landmarks there. Hell I know I still don't look like a Miami mothafucka and never will but I can spot other out of towners now. Well, maybe this family is just some extreme tourist lol

See this is what I'm talkin' about. People towing skis to the water for midweek fun. Give me a few more months. I'll be out there on the water. I think I said it before, but I don't even really appreciate being in a place like Florida or Cali in the summer. It's the wintertime that impresses me. when I know that the high temperature for the day is only 30 degrees in Michigan. lol, that's when the satisfaction of being way down south or out west kicks in.

I'm not use to seeing that. Maybe other states just don't have the big ass sign in view. I'm assuming they're not forced to be out there in 95 degree heat. Probably volunteered. I couldn't do it. Working in that heat would probably put me in the hospital. Maybe that's the goal.

All this basketball talk, a mothafucka forgets that football season is only about a month and a half away. I got reminded about football this morning At the store. No lie. Today buying some shit from the crib. The young girl at the cash register said, "You used to play football?" I said, "Barely. Just in high school. Why?" She said, "You have a big blue ring with a M on it. That's usually the kinda ring football players have." I laughed. Then she said, "Oh, I loooove football players." Silly bitch. I was trippin' because there are so many retired and active players down here. I was also trippin' off how babygirl is like 18 or 19 but gave me a funny "I could be her pops" feeling. I'm really gettin' old. But she did get me thinkin' how I wouldn't mind going to check out the "BIGGER" house in Ann Arbor to see the wolverines play. Not trying to do any home games at Ford Field this year(real talk, I'm not even trying to go back to Detroit for even a minute this year), but I'll be checking the lions out in Dallas on November 21st(Can't wait to see the cowboys new digs) and I'll also be in the stadium when they play the dolphins on December 26th. Passed by Sunlife a few times, and I'll tell yall. It's no fun sitting at a hot football game. I got a taste of that a few years ago when I went to See the lions play at Candlestick park. I wonder if there's any kind of a/c in that mothafucka.

That beautiful blue, but No it's not and R1 like mine. I was walking down the street and saw this Y2K R6 sittin' there. No one can tell me Yamaha hasn't been making the sexiest bikes over the last 10 years. Fuck a Honda, kawasaki or suzuki. I couldn't even imagine living in Florida and not having a motorcycle. It's probably moreso the thought of knowing you got one to hop on if you want too. Kinda like being right by the beach and knowing to can run and jump in the ocean if you want too. Yo, more & more I'm yearning to ride through L.A. Watching video clips of cats ridin' through the hills has my mouth watering. When I got out west this winter, my bike is probably gonna have to go with me. See another R6 below:

So let me tell yall. I'm a self-admitted ex fast food junkie. I say "ex" because I don't even be havin' the urge for a Big Mac or a Whopper anymore. I much rather crush some avocatos and spread it on a home grilled burger with some slice purple onions. Not sure what has gotten into me. Yeah, I do. Having broads spend the night and showin' a nigga just how good home cooked food can be. Don't get it twisted ladies, I dig LEARNING from DIFFERENT broads. I'm not choosin'. People wouldn't understand how much money I was blowing on grease soaked meals. Something like $7 for breakfast. $7 for lunch and yep, I guess $7 for dinner too(it was usually a hot and ready and crazy bread from little caesar pizza). That was like $21 a day on empty calories. Now check this out. I went to publix this morning to get my foods for the week and would you believe I only spent $30. Keep in mind, It's just me, myself and I. It doesn't take much for a pimp to survive in the bachelor pad. lol, But that's almost what I spent for one day of food 6 months ago. Now here's the thing. When the weather cools a lil bit, I'ma start fishing. I think I'll be able to eat even cheaper then. Not that a nigga is trying to be thrifty and shit. I just find it a challenge to see how much I can do with my porn dollars.

I could be trippin' but I've never seen this size before. Look close. I grew up on the cans of Hawaiian Punch. Then shifted to the big 1 gallon bottles in high school. The 20oz soda bottles were never enough for me. I was thrilled when I saw the lil 32oz joints in Walgreens today. $1.00. So I stocked up. Throwin' one of these joints and a bottle water in the bike when I ride out.

Ridin' by, not time to stop but got damn, there's so many fuckin' Casinos in South Florida. And I definitely wanna stop in the Cuban Cigar joint. Not gonna be able to buy "real" Cubans there, but it should be interesting. I'll take my camera in. For the record. Right across the bridge in Detroit, Buying Cubans was no problem. Or Tijuana, the Dominican Republic. Yeah, I've smoked plenty before.

I step out my door, walk down the street and this is what I see. Come on. Could you ever get tired of shit like this? Naw, she ain't a chocolate tone chick like I like them. But any shade of nice bare titties on the beach are alwayz a welcome view for me. For the first time ever in my life, I'm actually looking forward to October and November. Football on T.V., Basketball games at the arena. The women will still be out and it'll still be hot. Just manageable heat. You know 70's instead of the hellish 94 degrees like today. With the heat index it's 105 degrees. But I ain't complaining.

Not sure if I've told yall the story behind pervAsian.com. I've been working on it and Europoon.com over the last few days so let me explain. Way back in 2007 I think. I found a cell phone with probably 500 photos and some video of cute Asian bitches. I tried to find a way to contact the broads and get it back to them. But nothing in any of the photos gave me any clue of how to do so. It looks like they're from China and the phone language was actually in Chinese. Not many Chinese-Americans even use that language on their phones over here. So, fuck it. I'm throwing the photos up on a website. I named it pervAsian because that's what you feel like when looking at the photos and video. If any of them contact me, I'll have no problem removing the pics as I plan on getting more asian content in a more traditional way. It'll be hot when I get it up and running. Hey, I may be slow with my projects, but when I get them going. They do wonderful. Look at Chic-Chick.com and CHICKwithaCOCK.com I opened up the members area on those joints in November and believe it or not, combined they do just as well as the .com The only other 2 things still dangling around are BlackVaginaFinder.TV and FoulFowl.TV Those are simple though because it's just a matter of me purchasing a tube script to run them. Through my years I've learned that patience is everything. As long as you know what you wanna do, take your time at getting it done. Rushing into shit can ruin it.

Don't laugh. it's Friday and just like I mentioned in my .com I kinda slide away from my diet plan on the weekends. It's not easy to get the kind of coney dog here in florida that I'm used to enjoying in Detroit. Sure checkers/rallys has chili dogs but that shit just doesn't taste right. I've been asking small restaraunts if they made them and the answer is always sometimes we can do it for you, but it has to be when we have our "special of the day" as chili. Then I find out on that day that they have beans in their shit. Yuck, so I pass on it. Man I hadn't had a coney dog in almost 5 months. So I hit up my grocery store this morning on a mission to buy the ingredients to make a Detroit style coney island chili dog. It turned out Delicious. And to top things off I had a can of faygo(yep they got it here) with my coney. Word on the street is I can even order the exact same chili that they use in Detroit joints. National chili brand.

Oh yeah, I'm in the zone today baby. It's thursday. I made it through the week with ease. Half way through July which I've felt ever since spring would be my toughest month. The heart of summer and all this heat. I've had a lot of unfinished shit hangin' over my head and now it's all getting taken care of. Life is not easy. When you half-step or try to look for loopholes, it gets harder. There;s a few furniture items that I needed to buy and I had to get my licenses converted which meant new in$urance policies on top of the $400 per car for plate fees, title transfers and registration. You know, the kinda shit that makes a nigga not wanna move to a different state. lol, probably should have done this 3 months ago, but fuck that. My policy was paid up until today and I wasn't givin' away money. So yeah, I'm feelin' good now and everyone around me is good too. Yo, one of the things I like to see is brothas out hustlin' "legally" and risin' with what they're doing. I always look to see what kind of work places offer and I also look at the neigborhoods to make sure there are affordable but more importantly SAFE places to live. After living in L.A. and Miami seeing how hard mothafuckas grind, I just can't have any compassion for broke mothafuckas that don't have shit. I've seen mexicans sellin' fruit way up in merced, California. making it. I see brothas slangin' water here in Miami. makin' it. Also I even see old grandpoppas out here in Miami pushin' watermelons for $5.00 makin' it. See this kinda shit has a positive effect on your mental. When you know there are ways to "make it", you think in a different manner than you think when all you see is blight and hopelessness. Being here in Florida, I've seen poverty, but here, it's a lot different than the way I've seen it in Detroit and L.A. In florida, those that don't have shit seem to just not be trying to get it. In Detroit, broke cats are doing everything they can to. including breaking into your shit to take yours. In L.A., too many brothas are on the system gettin' paid. I guess that's why the budget is so fucked up there.

I saw the wicked witch mural at a garage in Overtown. Then a little bit beyond Overtowns border is some of the most awesome graffiti I have ever seen. In that vicinity, The 3 murals below the witches feet cover a studio/soundstage in the arts district.

I don't think I've ever seen an area inside of an urban city in American where pride is so apparent. I love it. Overtown has about 5 different "welcome to" signs all through that mothafucka. I'm not the nigga to be flashing cameras in the hood though so I just snapped 2 clear shots from my car when no one was around. I dig that place.

Was reading the news the other day and I saw that Berry Gordy's old Mansion in Detroit is for sale. click here for the link Over the last 20 years, I've passed by that mothafucka thinking about how cool of a place and neighborhood that must've once been. You probably gotta be from the D to understand how fucked up the area is now. Nevertheless at one time I wanted one of those glorious brick cribs. That area is called the Boston-Edison district. Being a nigga that grew up in the suburbs where every house on the block looked alike, the flava of this area was attractive to me. But there is no way that old motown mansion is worth anything close to the million dollar asking price and there's no way anyone will buy it for anything more than half of that. Travel south on woodward or hamilton and cross to John R. right before you pass I-75 and you'll see another area. This area, like Boston-Edison was the home to many weathy early 20th century Detroiters. Also like B-E this area lost it's shine at one time. But here it was to the point where huge homes were abandoned and used as drug dens in the 80's and early 90's. I was too young to know about the area, but I'm told a lot of the land and property was sold for pennies on the dollar. This was before construction of the stadiums in the area. I can remember the first time I cruised through the area when I was like 19, I called to find out the price on a storefront that was for sale. They told me $125,000. I have a 5 year old newspaper clipping of a dude that bought a house in that area for like $5,000 25 years ago. I would've been like 10 years old when the shit was that cheap. Anywayz, I do Wish I would've at least thought to take pictures of it when I was in High School. Almost 9 years ago I shot my first photo for the .com site in that vicinity. Four years ago I snapped shots of the structures that you see up above. the top 3 needed work, the bottom one was a finished product. I haven't been over in that area in a few years, but I'm sure it's probably built up a little better now. It was one of my dream areas of Michigan. The others being West Bloomfield and Anywhere on East Jefferson. The particular area I'm showing you is right next to Ford Field, Comerica Park, next to I-75 and across from Hockeytown cafe. I rented an apartment next to those houses for a year. Just so I could look at the construction of the area and be inspired. It worked. Right now, I could actually be living in one of the condo's in the area. Got my bank up to the point where I could own one. But It's scary how ones taste and desires can change as you age. See how the under construction condos were looking in 2006 below:

When I think about the "D", I cringe. I've been talking to former co-workers(Told yall almost 5 months ago I'm waitin' to see you working retail lol). Talked to one yesterday and was hearing about the times mothafuckas are having job searching. Found out a few folks moved down to Florida like me. Smart broads. Some cats doing customer service and shit like that. $11-$14 an hour gigs. Cool. Enough to pay the car note and keep yall apartments in the suburbs. But What makes my stomach turn is how mothafuckas up there try to make it seem like living in Metro Detroit right now ain't bad. Niggaz are you fuckin' insane??? The boredom and lack of "culture" alone should be enough to send yall runnin' lol. A brotha not from Detroit I know asked me about restaraunts last night. I almost laughed. In Detroit. Shit, I tried to think of which ones that didn't go bankrupt. I get even more shocked when I find out that those mothafuckas I once worked with didn't even bother to take a vacation before they accepted new jobs. How you gonna get a lump sum of cash and not take a grand of it, hop on a plane and go somewhere? But got damn, you right back to punchin' the clock and kissin' ass already. Not even 5 months has passed yet. I assume the loot was slowly runnin' out and niggaz were having 2nd thoughts on how they spent it. Shoulda packed your shit and set up shop outside of Michigan. That whole area is just a shell of what it used to be. But a chick told me that it's just that a lot of people have trouble leaving their "comfort zone". People do the same thing over and over again. Me, I goto the water over and over again lol. And I'm not talkin' about a river or a lake either. For one, the mothafuckin' ocean water has a calming, healing, relaxing effect. I swear, I put my headphones on go walk to that mothafucka, lay there and it's so refreshing. I'm shopping for a fresh surf board to take out there with me. Let me put this in perspective to my peeps that read this blog whom I rode the city bus with in Detroit(what a mindblowing experience) for 2 years. Walk from the bus stops at Northland Mall to the food court entrance. That's the distance from my spot to the beach but that ain't really impressing me anymore. I think my goal at this point needs to be gettin' my bread up so I can literally buy a house with the water as the backyard. A small boat and some jet ski's sitting out there seems about right. And oh yeah, a pool that disappears into the ocean. lol, mothafuckas got some unbelievable shit sittin' right on the ocean here.

I'm so glad all that bullshit is over. This shit has been epic jockery. It's kinda like these mothafuckas in Miami "willed" these 3 players to be here. Not sure why it should be bothering me. Maybe I just don't hang around enough brothas in the MIA but I've been watching grown-ass men walking all around me with "Wade-County" t-shirts and "We Want Wade" gear on. The local news channels have been suckin' players dick for the last month. I started to think maybe something was wrong with me. Then I realized no, these mothafuckas down here in Miami are just borderline homosexuals. I talked about this last month, but there is no way in hell men in my hometown Detroit would have been beggin' anybody to come play on a fuckin' sports team. And another thing about all my pro teams(Tigers, pistons, redwings, lions), it's all about the team as a whole. I was listening to Lebron James saying, "he wants everyone to have their own spotlight." NOOO! It should be the whole team in the same spotlight. Look at how the whole state of Ohio made fools out of themselves. I'm not callin' anybody KING. These niggaz are just basketball players. I think I mentioned it in the blog before, but it just recently got to the point where I could even bring myself to where a jersey with another niggaz name on the back. and that was a Throwback OJ simpson jersey and a Desmond Howard joint that I bought years ago. lol. Seriously, I don't wanna sound like a hater, because I'll definitely be catchin' the pistons, clippers and the lakers games there at AA arena. But I was goin' to see them teams anywayz. I'm happy that these 3 brothas are gonna bring a lot of attention and money to south Florida because this is where my home is now. But...I can't feel any of the energy that these other residents here feel. Sorry, but I gotta say it one more time. Grown men, running around yelling for other grown men. Maybe it's because I'll always be a Piston Fan. And I don't think I'll ever walk into a basketball arena and be as entertained as I am whenever I step into the Staples center for a lakers game. I don't live too far from the AA arena but I couldn't bring myself to go out there and take pictures for the blog. Because no championship has been won yet. lol, the mothafuckas out partying right now are just groupies. lol, I just can't get into it man hahaha. The news is now saying there's gonna be a parade and party this weekend. MEANWHILE, when everyones attention is focused on some basketball players, there's rioting in Oakand, CA right now. PEACE!

So I'm rollin' down N.Miami ave I believe that's where I was. I see sugarcane for sale $1.00 a "stalk"(I think that's what you call it). I remember tasting some as a kid while visiting down south. Saw plenty of it for sale in the Dominican Republic when I was there(took pictures of it). Wasn't impressed. But it's something else to see a nigga on the street in the hood slagin' sugar cane. Right next to the $5 freshly picked watermelon and $1 bottles of water dudes. I bought one. It was about as tall as me. Took that mothafucka home, into the kitchen and tried to break/cut it so I could chew some 'cane. Yeah, I managed. Taste aiight, but all the trouble just ain't worth it. Buy some gum or candy to chew on.
