Rap and hip hop are completely different. Hip Hop is pure and good, with some turntables and track suits....rap is talking about rims on your ride and bitches asses only. No white lines....no 911 is a joke...
blah i say
Oh, I know. I know all about fab five fready, the Grandmaster Flash, and the furious five, amongst others. I know the difference, trust me. Nas would be, K-Os, Mos Def, and lots of others.
I swear sometimes i wonder if the 80s ever really happened or it was some big fever pitch psychotic drug induced something the govt put in the water thing
The only acceptable 80s dance is the one molly ringwald does in the breakfast club
What about poor ally sheady? poor girl, cuts her wrist, adn waht does she get? Johnny five is alive.

Sam Guthrie...President? by Twilight
Cannonball was sick of those stupid Sentinels.
Lording it over the Xavier institute like giant mechanical Hitler’s.
“It’s time to show them some Xavier’s school hospitality” said Cannonball, stuffing his beaten old cowboy hat onto his mess of blonde hair.
The ground shook as Sam Guthrie rocketed into the sky, using his mutant power to launch himself like a human cannonball.
“Work sucks” said Sentinel Operator #4 taking a sip from a can of Coca-Cola “I wish one of those mutie freaks would do something interesting so I don’t just sit here all day drinking sugared water”.
Suddenly Sentinel Operator #4 was knocked out of his seat as Cannonball hit his mechanical death machine like a rocket.
“HOWDY Y’ALL” screamed Cannonball.
“What the hell was that?” said Sentinel Operator #4 desperately trying to gather his bearings. He managed to say “I NEED BACK-UP!QUICKsmnngfewi3877..” into the microphone before Cannonball ripped through the Sentinel’s head and bowled Sentinel Operator #4 out into the nippy Westchester air.
“NOOOOOOOOOOO” he screamed as he fell to the ground “SAVE ME JESUS!”
Cannonball laughed manically as the pudgy man fell to his death.
Then he knocked down all the other Sentinels and became President.
The United States entered a state of peace and prosperity like it had never seen before or will again.
God bless us,everyone.

Mos Def is underrated methinks.
I like some modern rap, but a lot of shits out there
I mean, Jay Z is probably the last great new rapper and he's like retired or some such. I mean sampling Little Oprhan Annie...shit man.....genious!
Kanye is also pretty good.
But im far and away mostly a Pop man. Dig the fun goofy stuff. Speaking of..Gwen Stefani...really dig her right now. Although as i said yesterday, a couple of her songs on her cd involve her getting drilled in a car....probably a fetish that. Like that movie crash, the old one where people got in car crash fetishes and like crashed cars to have sex after or some such

I just bought today this month's brazillian X-Men. We just finished Golgotha. We'll have House of M im October. So we're a little behind. But I can't stand the waiting.
You would be surprised as how quick people in the US and UK buy the issue and upload it to the net. I usually read the comics the same day they're released, especially when is a big thing like Civil War.
And I agree, Marvel is awesome right now. I'm reading the Spider titles again and they're soooo good with this whole Civil War thing.

I don't know if CBR allows me to talk about where I download comics. There's a program with hubs. You just have to enter a hub, search for the book and download it. It's pretty quick. The comics I download are in english, obviously. The ones I buy here are in portuguese.
We don't have single issues here. Each book here has 100 pages.
In X-Men, we have Uncanny, X-Men, New X-Men and some mini.
In X-Men Extra we have, Astonishing, Genosha Excalibur, Exiles and Kitty Pryde Shadows and Flames.

I don't know if CBR allows me to talk about where I download comics. There's a program with hubs. You just have to enter a hub, search for the book and download it. It's pretty quick. The comics I download are in english, obviously. The ones I buy here are in portuguese.
We don't have single issues here. Each book here has 100 pages.
In X-Men, we have Uncanny, X-Men, New X-Men and some mini.
In X-Men Extra we have, Astonishing, Genosha Excalibur, Exiles and Kitty Pryde Shadows and Flames.
In Wolverine, we have Wolverine, Cable and Deadpool, Madrox and Weapon X mini.
In Spider-Man, we have all the Spidey titles.
In Avengers, Avengers, Cap, Thor, Young Avengers.
In Marvel Universe, we have Fantastic Four, Thunderbolts, Hulk and some other I forgot.(I don't buy this one)
In Daredevil, Daredevil and other books I forgot(I don't buy this one either)

How much do they cost?
We have similar things here aswell as the proper issues.
Essential X-Men = X-Men + X-treme (Morrison and X-treme are just about to finish so I guess it will become X-Men, Astonishing and Uncanny)
Wolverine & Deadpool (used to be & Gambit but they ran out of stories) I think they're on 'Return of the Native' at the minute so Enemy of the state should be soon. Deadpool is the Joe Kelly issues.
Fantastic Four = Old and new issues
Mighty World of Marvel = Usually Daredevil and The hulk but other stuff aswell. Currentl publishing current MTU which i found a bit odd.
Astonishing Spiderman
They're great value. 3 issues for just slightly more than 1 normal issue.

Same here. I started Essential X-Men at #90 which was just before the 'Twelve' saga. At the same time I was reading the CC, Morrison and Austen trades. I think I read Essential until about #110 when they'd caught up to where I was in trades.
Then i read trades until i caught up with issues.
The rest is history.

What a long weekend.
Left work early Friday to pack and buy groceries for this weekend's troop camping trip. Not really camping, but staying in the dorms at the Delaware Air National Guard base in Bethany Beach. We had over thirty participants, including a few families, so that was different. We got to the base around 8:30 PM Friday night. Two other adults and I drove over to Rehoboth to see one of their son's bands play. Anyway, Saturday morning the kids did a service project on the base before we headed to the beach. It was a great beach day. Not too hot, and the water was chilly but had some great waves. I unfortunately had to come home on Saturday afternoon, leaving the troop there, as I had my grandmother's 80th birthday party to go to. So I made it home in time to shower, get dressed, and make it to the restaurant. It's great getting to see all of my cousins. I was supposed to meet a couple of them at the Italian Festival afterward, but when I walked down there it was like a mob scene. Too many people and not volatile for me. So I walked down to the bars at Trolley Square instead where I met up with my friend Matt, among others. I also ran into an old high school friend so we hung out. A bunch of us headed to a party afterward but it had already ended so we just went home.
Yesterday was HOT. Woke up and went over this girl's house for a cook-out then walked down to the Festival (yesterday was closing day). I was tired so went home and napped and watched Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead on HBO...lol. Then went back to the Festival to get dinner and some free gellato. Then back home to draw my DMAX-Jam entry and watched Entourage with my roommates and Beth. then went to bed.
Next weekend is the big DMB and O.A.R. concert in Hershey Park. We're camping there, though it looks like rain. Who cares. I'll have beer and liquor to keep me dry.

I'm off down to Puglia. (that's the bit of italy that looks like the heel.)

Happy Monday morning, gang. Had a good weekend, but am growing frustrated with some of the newbies on the board, particularly the terrible abuse of fundamental grammar and spelling and the near-daily pleas for information that's readily available with 5 minutes of digging into past threads. Fear that I'm becoming a grumpy old man. Thoughts?

Hey Drew! Yeah, I had a good weekend too! Friday night I went to a deck party and had a lot of fun. Saturday, I hung out with an old friend of mine. We discovered comics together back as kids, and we had a total nerd fest on Saturday. We talked comics, sci-fi, fantasy books etc. I had a blast. Sunday was baseball, plus, earlier in the day, I showed a bunch of international military attaches around the town. They were here for some conference. In my group, I had dignitaries from Australia, Norway, the US, Argentina, Spain, Kenya, Malaysia and France. Fun times.
I too get annoyed by the lazy use of grammar and spelling. It's one thing to have a misspelled word because of a typo, or the odd case of faulty grammar, but it's pathetic what many of these posters consider english. Sometimes I can't understand a post because of spelling and grammar. I find that more and more often, I am just skipping a post if the spelling and grammar is too bad. Don't want to take the time to write properly? Fine, you just lost someone who was willing to hear your point of view.
The other thing that bugs me is when people always use acronyms when listing a title. A lot of them are fine when they are obvious. When posting in a thread about Crisis, COIE is obviously Crisis On Infinite Earths. On the X-Boards NEX, UXM, AXM etc are all obvious. LOSH is fairly recognizable as Legion of Super Heroes. What irritates me, however is when people use acronyms that aren't obvious. For example, I was looking at a thread about Silver Age DC vs. Modern DC, and some tool wrote something like "Yeah, I think my point is really hammered home in DM, WOR, RK and LUJ." What the fuck does that mean? Don't assume everyone knows what these acronyms are! Fuck, that pisses me off!
