Happy Thanksgiving

I believe Thanksgiving is essential for our culture. Not as a biological need - who needs 7000 more calories in their diet for a day, but as to prepare people for the next month. The timing of Thanksgiving cannot be more planned out and strategic, because once December hits all hell breaks loose. The holiday rush is on. They even have "Black Friday" the day after Thanksgiving, the best day of sales throughout the year!
The turkey and stuffing isn't to give you the "itis" and let be lazy for a day, it's to get you prepared to go out and fight for that last "Barbie" doll or "Nintendo Wii"! Eating turkey makes people tired for the most part, and most families eat lots and lots of food, maybe even a little alcohol consumption, this fills up people's stomach and sets people up to go to bed at 7 instead of 12 in the morning; allowing people to get the early rise to run to the stores and grab what they can for what the stores call a "low low price". Families stock up on fat so that they go on days without eating what they usually do, while they go run the stores for presents.
There is another reason for Thanksgiving, and as to why it's called Thanks-Giving. Morally people are preparing themselves to become the meanest and ugliest froms of themselves that is socially acceptable. Humanity would not be humane during the holiday rush if it were not for Thanksgiving. People must clean their slate with their conscience, which may be a god or friends and family, before they go out and fight for what they want to get other people. Every year the little ones learn to prepare themselves, and clean their moral slates so they can ask Santa for everything they desire.
The creators of Thanksgiving, whether it be the pilgrims or not, had a plan, possibly not this one, but they decided for good reasons to pick a day to eat a whole lot more, so for the next month they could work longer to give presents to their little ones, passing down the torch until today. We have mutated Thanksgiving to help us culturally to help pass the days of the holiday rush, where people are them worst selves.

New Albums.....Good Work Luda

I had so much more faith in Kanye. From leaked songs out dispersed on the internet, Mr. West sounds as the white emo bands that still suck their mother's nipple...... Not to say that all the songs suck, most of the singles he has approved for the radio are jamming, such as Amazing ft. Young Jeezy, and Love Lockdown. Personally I'll listen to some of these songs, but this album I won't support because it's not what I'm looking for out of him.
Ludacris on the other hand, has done very well. With "The Preview" mixtape he had out before hand, Ludacris has been working like hell, but does not dissappoint. "Theater of the Mind" is enthusiastic, wasn't exactly what I thought of when he said it was going to be theatrical, but it does the trick. Many of the songs will have you rotfl because of it's content, as with the recently relesed One More Drink ft. T-Pain. His comback is reasonable to why he hasn't dropped anything for a while.
"Three Ringz" album dropped a while ago, but it is one that I can still enjoy, along with it's own mixtape "Pree Ringz". T-Pain actually raps, and a lot at that! These two discs prove it, and why Pain should be recognized as talented for more than what credit he has been given within the recent years. The circus rolls around, bringing along many wierd talents provided by T-Pain.

Artists keep coming out with new tracks and albums, sometimes not to the public's expectations, but the songs should be the reflection of the artist, so I still have faith in Kanye West

"I Make It Rain"

Tonight something occurred to me as I was bowling with friends. The song "Low" was on and at about the part of "...She was worth the money...", I understood why "making it rain" in the club is so damn popular; it makes the regular club into a strip joint. By throwing money all over the floor in the middle of the club a person no longer has to settle for a lap dance, and feel disgusted for going to a titty bar. Before a man had to be looked at in a crude light when he walked into a gentleman's club and spent hundreds of dollars within its haven, but by throwing random bills in a club full of people, a man can spend less money and still get some action without having to feel ashamed for himself.
The popularity of making it rain is growing, allowing guys to treat normal, respectable women like hoes (not that it wasn't going to happen regardless, hell if a female is willing to dry hump in front of strangers on a stranger, I'm pretty sure its safe to assume she's looking for a one night ordeal). Our culture is changing the perspective of brothels, only women sell themselves and men buy them in different ways than before. Such as throwing ones at a crowd to make a female believe a man has lots of money, he's buying her (falsely) and she's selling herself by throwing herself onto the man's body to get him in the mood (which wouldn't be too hard as that was his intention because he threw some money at people).
To make things more interesting would be to throw monopoly money, or the fake money from the dollar store that little kids can play with. Or better yet, having a gallon of silver change and pennies, then the rain would drop as rain, but hurt like hell.

Is all change good?

This year has many situations of change, hell we have a black president name Barak Hussein Obama, that can actually speak properly. As of late there has been a movement within south Florida, a movement of violence. Starting with the shooting at my high school, Dillard, there have been many acts of safety issues. The day after the Dillard shooting, another student at Miramar High brought a gun into school, then the day after that a third grader at Walker Elementary School also brought a gun into school. The following week, on Monday at a Miami school, a student was found unconscious in the bathroom, and he was rushed to the hospital. Now the news stations are talking to students about safety and how the students feel, the talk of the land is about school safety.
My question is : why do students feel the need for protection to the point of requiring a weapon? Do we as a culture have the to have hold of a deadly utensil in order to feel safe? It doesn't make sense to me, can times really that bad within school systems that children feel unsafe within its borders?
Are there reasons for these situations?

Hella Fun Free iPhone Applications!!!!!

This is a list of iPhone and iPod Touch applications that are free and can give hours of enjoyment, whether in class, waiting, or on the go they're great any time (just don't get caught).

1. Tap Tap Revenge - This a fun free app that is advertised by many of the iPhone commercials, but every song download is free for this mobile Guitar Hero adaptation.

2. Trace - A challenging game that makes users get a stick figure to the yellow sun by drawing and erasing lines, then guiding the stick man into the sun. For a free app, this is a long fun game that can help you pass the time.

3. Maze Finger - My friend told me about this app. By striking your finger across the interface you go through a series of mazes. Even better you get achievements!!!!!!!!! Only issue is that it doesn't allow music to play while you play......ugh.

4. Bubble Wrap - The Apple version of this app is a success, the Google phone's version is FAIL. I say this with the utmost respect for the developers, but Apple's version makes popping bubble wrap on a flat screen fun by having a score within an allotted amount of time. Google's version is simply touching a flat screen, losing the fun of bubble wrap entirely.

5. Zippo Lighter - The safe way pyromaniacs can have fun with fire. There are different lighter faces to reflect your personality, and the flame reacts with the accelerometer, including vibration when you fake burn yourself.

6. Puzzle - What could be the fun in moving squares around in a larger square? A difficult mind bender is this game called puzzle. At first it's a pain, but it can help pass the time to become pissed off, then to enjoy your success which is well earned.

7. Four Free - This is basically Apple's free version of Connect Four. You can play the computer, or another person within your direct area.

8. PhotoLab - Provided by the nice people at Ford, this is the only photo editor app that's portable for handy use. It has limited capabilities, but for a quick edit its worth it, and best of all its free.

9. Shazam - Another well advertised app is Shazam. The idea has always been long sought, but for a free app to find out song names and who its by is a great utility. Better yet it shows where you buy the song at that.....sorry cheap people you can't get the song for free as well.
