Save The Internet!
This is how things will look after Net Neutrality is Lobbied, bought, and Killed?! You’d be paying EXTRA dough to be able to go onto your favorite sites. So DO SOMETHING! “More than 1.9 million people have already called for support of Net Neutrality. Take Action: Sign our petition to Congress – and save the Internet!“. I think it is extremely important to get involved in this Neutral Net movement-for all you bloggers, You Tube fiends, Facebookers, Ebayers, and pretty much all you internet users!
David Choe at Lazarides Gallery 4.22.10
Last night in Beverly Hills, art aficionados flocked to Lazarides Gallery for a private viewing of David Choe’s “Nothing To Declare.” This isn’t everything. My camera battery died…FAIL! But you should definitely check out the show for yourself. It opens to the public tonight until May(?)
This piece is my 2nd favorite piece of the evening. My 1st, I have to get it from my buddy’s camera. Sorry.
The infamous David Choe whale.
…stay tuned for more photos.
What Color Says About You
I enjoy these personality tests. It’s fun and it also let’s you learn a bit about yourself and whether what you read is reflected upon you or not. What does your personality color say about you? Here’s mine…
Click on the color links for more in depth of your personality…

Kiss-A-Zima
Zima which is still majorly marketed in Japan has whipped up a new marketing gimmick. Actual molded plastic lips of Japanese famous hotties placed at the neck of the bottles so that when you’re drinkin’ it, you’re kissing a “star” and only in Japan would you find products like these. Hilarious. You could be kissing famous chicks like Yukina Kinoshita!
SitBack Sundays
I call my Sunday’s, SitBack Sundays. It is the end of the week, usually a long week for me, and on Sunday’s I just want to sit back and relax! Sunday’s are the times where I am able to catch up some blogs, writings, and simply just scanning through one the greatest technologies ever made called the internet! As I was browsing around on random search engines, I came across this great fashion piece called “Daily Times Sunday” Fashion in Pakistan.
Happy Friday!
hahaha

The Pacific Ocean could soon be lighting up the beautiful city of San Francisco as a tidal-energy project planned for the waters near the Golden Gate Bride is now in the final stages of acquiring the necessary permits for implementation. The project, which has been in the works for over four years, will produce 10 to 30 megawatts of energy with the potential of up to 100 megawatts, and is anticipated to be the largest energy generator off the California Coast.

Lakers Parade!
Ok… BBall season is over so you won’t be reading anymore posts about the LAAAKERS til next season! But I had the day off Wed and took the metrolink in Anaheim to LA with a couple of homies to avoid the maaad traffic to be part of Lakers’ history 
. THOUSANDS of people drenched in purple and yellow-Laker Nation baby .
The scene was hectic. All kinds of shit were going on everywhere. People climbing on top of gas stations, street lights, roof tops, passed out drunkies, and only in LA do people smoke crack in the streets… really, they do. We left before all of that crazy street shit were to happen.
Lakers 2009 NBA Champs!
Lakers have 15 NBA titles and Kobe, along with Fisher holding 4 of them.
With Gasol’s 14 points and 15 rebounds added to Kobe’s 30 points, 5 assists, and 6 rebounds, the Dynamic Duo did what they do best. Ariza and Fisher scored 15 and 13 points, respectively, while Odom’s total contribution of 17 points included an impressive 3-3 of 3PM-A.
Phil Jackson celebrated his 10th Championship win, breaking a tie he had with Boston coach, the late Red Auerbach, and setting a new record for the most wins in NBA history.
Kobe was also named the NBA Finals Most Valuable Player. Averaging 32.4 points per game in the Finals and working constantly to improve the Lakers’ game and not just his own, Mamba has proved what he can do individually as well as with a team.
Go Lakers! We are F*CKING proud of you! I LOOOOVE THE LAKERS!

Sexyfresh in China
So I’m in China right now with Acrylick Clothing – this other company that I design for – but of course I am checking out sources, fabrics, and cool shit for Sexyfresh while I’m out here.
After a 14 hour long flight I get into Hong Kong and it is HUMID! But raining, so it isn’t too bad. Plane food sucked so the vendors took us to a seafood restaurant. It totally reminded me of the cell phone commercial with Wade, Barkley, and Ming…”Eat the head!”
