just making observations...
alas, here is tangible proof of the counter-productiveness of these fuqing shirts. i saw one today on a kid walking out of Madison Park HS. i'm really trying to reduce my N!gga verbal output, but shT like this skews the numbers. expressions, hip-zepi, manhattan's.....i'm coming for ya...i thinkwe're overdue for a boycott...
...dudes are funny. they'll ask you why you've been MIA but know damn well they didn't bother to call you when they obviously had a phone bank going to coordinate their activities. hence the definition of situational irony...
anyways...
so I didn't make it down to DC this weekend, but the morning after wasn't as distressing as i thought it would be. i am a bit isappointed in the seemingly minimal amount of media coverege that it generated; albeit i no longer have a TV to watch it so who am i complain. so i've only read this one piece from cnn. but i'm thinking maybe c-span has some good clips. hmm...let's see...
more irony from the globe. i came across three articles about Mayor Menino that have a well-put-together argument for the issues I hinted at in an earlier post. this one gets to the heart of the comparison i made between menino and joe riley. this column highlights of lot of issues that should be discussed and put more in the open in this current - and a bit of a yawner - mayoral race. and finally, this article beats arond the bush a bit, but put questions about race issues front and center, which is very refreshing, regardless of how short the article falls in really appling some tangible pressure or inciting dialogue. but i guess it's a start.
lastly, i think I'm gonna have to try and make the debate this Wednesday amongst the at-large city councilors at UMass-Boston. reading some of the candidates' answers to a laundry list of 6 key questions definitely puts a lot on the table in terms of narrowing down what ground to cover, but i like how thorough this simple story is and look forwrad to more.
