JUSTICE FINALLY FOR THE BLAZE FAMILY???

DJ Carl Blaze was a great guy to many people. I can't even say I knew him but in limited encounters and passings at Sues he was cool and humble. Deserving much better then the fate that claimed his life in 2006. God willing this case is about to be solved to give the family and friends a degree of closure.

Hit the jump for the NY Post details.

Where is that line crossed?

Love. In my opinion the most powerful force on earth. It defies logic.It's ever evolving and changing for every being on this planet. And much it this power scares me. Not me personally but it scares me as to what I've seen it do to people. Love at times seems to be the lone rationale that justifies lunacy. So crazy in love in deed.

I'm sorry but if my black ass is standing in a moving truck over anger towards a female I deserve whatever I get.

BET AWARDS: How Full is the Cup

With less then 72hrs to completely flip their plans. The unrealistic optimist would expect the perfect MJ Tribute show. The Pessimist would expect more buffoonery and coonery. The realistic expectation was somewhere in the maybe. And that's what it was. Neyo did a great job capturing a fraction of M.J spirit while Tpain, Lil Wayne and Co. And the Un needed Baby Boy re enactment did remind us that this is still BET. But I can live with that.

BET was the guinea pig for award shows. With all the MJ tributes lined up, the the 1st one up fell upon one of the more polarizing networks yet what other station really had more genuine love for M.J then BET? All the other tributes will correct what BET didn't execute as well. Hindsight is 20/20 you know. But we got a chance to show love for one of our own.

Yes, we all have had Mike jokes, myself included ,but when its "game time" how do you present yourself? Are you the wise ass, slicc talker twitterer or do you bring some substance to the table in your words? I say that for anyone that can't take a degree of positivity in the fact that youngest sister Janet shared her thanks and grieved openly with us, then you do better. Don't talk about it be about it. Take the tools you have before you that you use to promote your sexual conquests, boast ya ego, push ya new "hot" mixtape, pretend to be the urban paris hilton or whatever nonsense you clutter the internets with and do something better.

As for me I give a degree of respect to BET. While admitting to some flaws, in a case of giving like this, its many times the thought that counts. I like to think of this cup as 1/2 full.

Tears at this point?I know I had them.......

Pulling Happiness from Hopelessness

HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. (June 19) --

Colby Curtin got her final wish.

The 10-year-old girl desperately wanted to see the new Disney-Pixar movie, "Up." But the cancer-stricken girl was too sick to go to a theater.
Thanks to a family friend who got in touch with the movie studio Pixar, an employee of the Emeryville-based company arrived at Colby's home with a DVD copy of the movie, The Orange County Register reported Friday. The girl died later that night.
Colby's mother, Lisa, said she had asked her daughter if she could hang on until the movie arrived.
"I'm ready (to die), but I'm going to wait for the movie," she said her daughter replied.
"Up" is the animated tale of a grumpy old man who, after his wife's death, tries to fulfill their joint dream of visiting South America by tying thousands of balloons to his house and floating away.
"When I watched it, I had really no idea about the content of the theme of the movie," Colby's mother told the Register. "I just know that word 'Up' and all of the balloons and I swear to you, for me it meant that (Colby) was going to go up. Up to heaven."
Colby, who was diagnosed with vascular cancer in 2005, saw previews for the film in April.
"It was from then on, she said, 'I have to see that movie. It is so cool,'" family friend Carole Lynch said.
But the girl's health began to deteriorate. On June 4, Curtin asked a hospice company to bring a wheelchair so that her daughter could go to a movie theater but the chair was not delivered over the weekend, Curtin said.
By June 9, Colby was too sick to go anywhere.
Another family friend, Terrell Orum, called both Pixar and Disney, which owns the animation studio. The message was received by Pixar officials, who agreed to send someone to Colby's house the next day with a copy of "Up" for a private screening, Orum said.
The employee arrived with the DVD, stuffed animals of characters and other movie memorabilia.
Colby was unable to open her eyes to see the movie so her mother described the scenes. When her mother asked if she enjoyed it, the girl nodded, Curtin said.
The Pixar employee left after the movie, taking the DVD, which has not been released. Lynch, who was with the family during the screening, said the employee's "eyes were just welled up."
A call to Pixar seeking comment was not immediately returned Friday.
Colby, with her parents nearby, died later that night.
Her mother said one of the memorabilia left by the Pixar employee was an "adventure book" based on a scrapbook that, in the movie, is kept by the wife of the main character.
"I'll have to fill those adventures in for her," Lisa Curtin said of her daughter.

It's so Hard to Say Good Bye: Hump Day Edition

I'd like to take this moment to say farewell to two Hump worthy ladies. Ms. Lauren London and Ms. Alicia Keys.




While i know shes done other things, Lauren = "New New" to me. I never found her ultra sexy drop dead beautiful but attractive in an every day gurl, low maintenance type of way.Like she'd be just as cute waking up in the morning as she is out and about. But as these "Preg with Lil Wayne's baby" reports swirl through the internets I must take a step back. You will be missed on this day.




Now this one is tuff.Ms Keys has been BEYOND Hump worthy to me for nearly a decade so it's with a heavy hear that I release her. I don't know what it is but you ever just have something or find out something that effects the way your see or view a person. Well in this scenario I still hold Ms Keys as the incredible talent and genuine person she is BUT the this whole Alicia/Mashonda/Swizz thing just gives me a funny feeling in my stomach. So while the facts have yet to surface I know enough of the matter that..I gotta let her go.Ms. Keys your music will continue to get HEAVY rotation but no longer can I post her within the realm of Humppington. You will be missed.

My President is BlacC........

(CNN) -- A New Year's Day shooting in which a subway police officer fired a deadly shot into the back of an unarmed man has the San Francisco Bay Area demanding answers as authorities appeal for patience.

FULL STORY HERE

Is it that serious?

Was playing poker on myspace with a female friend of mine that I've known for like a decade.And the lines that gus were throwing at her to get attention were hilarious and sad all at once.You would think these guys never actually dealt with live females before.

Smh....
