Spurs Win But Boris Diaw Hit In The Face With Two Balls
Posted by Dewan Gibson | Filed under Sports
The embarrassment is made worse because Diaw’s getting dunked on by a guy named Quincy Pondexter. Sounds like he wears an ascot and prefers crumpets for breakfast.

Butcher Feeds His Pigs Marijuana, Makes Magic Prosciutto
Posted by Dewan Gibson | Filed under News
Weed and pork? Word to Brother Shabbazz, add a whooty and a beer and I’m set for life. From NPR:
William von Schneidau, an intrepid butcher in Seattle, is giving a whole new meaning to “potbelly pig.” Lately, he’s been feeding marijuana refuse to the pigs he turns into prosciutto for BB Ranch, his butcher shop in the city’s famous Pike Place Market.
Pot-scented bacon? Well, not quite.
The stems, leaves and root bulbs von Schneidau recoups from Top Shelf Organic, a medical marijuana dispensary, don’t season the meat, he says. But the meat from the first few “pot pigs” he’s butchered has been “redder and more savory” than what he usually works with, he says.
It’s not clear whether the pigs feel anything from the weed in their feed, or how much, if any, THC — the psychoactive substance that gets humans high — ends up in the meat. Rather than an attempt to develop a new meaty treat for stoners, the “pot pig” experiment seems mostly to be an (effective) publicity stunt. Von Schneidau’s first Pot Pig Gig event — where he promoted the product, as well as other local foods — sold out quickly. And he says all the media attention he has gotten is generating lots of interest in the next event he’s planning.

Posted by Dewan Gibson | Filed under Hip-Hop
The Goodie Mob comeback has been on for awhile but it looks like they’ll have an actual album sooner than later. Funny to see Big Gipp looking like a mix between Jay-Z and Arsenio Hall, damn good song nonetheless.

About a year ago 66-year-old Ron Poppo of Miami had his face chewed off by a growling zombie who was originally reported to be high on bath salts but later found to only have marijuana in his system. He lost both eyes and his nose but wanted to thank supporters via Youtube. Thanks Ron, I never want to smoke weed again.

Samuel Smith Taddy Porter: Not Enough Ass Up On It
Posted by Dewan Gibson | Filed under A Brotha Gotta Eat
I like my beer as I like women, thick. (Note: I was going to write “thick and dark” but I obviously have a soft spot in my heart for white women.) Anyway, I picked this Samuel Smith Taddy Porter up at Sprouts, my local farmer’s market/grocery store. I saw it on the sales rack right next to a middle-age woman who had her purse sitting in her cart. As I got near her and the beer she snatched her purse out the cart and quickly tossed it on her shoulder. So much for that soft spot in my heart for white women.
Once home I sat the beer in the freezer for about an hour while I threw together a quick meal–seared ahi tuna with sliced mushrooms and tomatoes. The tuna was good as hell, but it bumrushed my gut to the point where I thought I’d have to leave the couch (had the fancy meal on a TV tray) and put in some work on the toilet, perhaps even a two-flusher. That’s no fun so I figured I’d tighten my ass cheeks (No Amaechi) and grab the porter to settle my stomach, as a good beer often does.
Well, it did the job, but it just didn’t have enough ass up on it. By that I mean it lacked the meatiness and flavor that you often find in a good porter (i.e. Stone Smoked Porter). It was underwhelming and a bit bland, sort of like a night out with an old friend where you quickly discover you’ve both changed so much and lack any recent shared experiences that you have nothing to talk about. The idea is great, the result…blah.

This Hoss In Florida Finds State’s Largest Python, Decapitates Him
Posted by Dewan Gibson | Filed under News
Dude found an 18-foot Burmese python on the side of the road and wrestled him before slicing off his head. Yet another reason not to move to Florida. I’m talking about the people, not the snake (more on NBC News).

This Is How They Ride For Jesus In China
Posted by Dewan Gibson | Filed under Humor
According to the Shangaiist, this is some sort of performance art and a rebellion against Chinese authority, though it looks more like severe dong endangerment. This is the same guy who went all “Lars And The Real Girl” and ran around bucknaked while holding a blowup doll.

The Making Of Ghostface’s ‘Twelve Reasons To Die’ Graphic Novel
Posted by Dewan Gibson | Filed under Hip-Hop
The “Twelve Reasons To Die” collector edition sets distributed by Soul Temple are sold out, but you can still grab a pack on eBay for around fifty bucks. It includes the graphic novel discussed below along with a t-shirt, LP and cassette tape. Cool set, but after a listen during a long highway drive the album didn’t meet my expectations. The production was great and I liked the idea of a concept album, but Ghost’s “darts” were a little off and his new-ish gruff voice diminished one of his most unique characteristics as an MC. Wu-Tang album’s coming soon.

Posted by Dewan Gibson | Filed under Hip-Hop
The good old days are now but this is still pretty cool. Ol’ Dirty wasn’t a hologram and Busta was without ‘roid rage. Ask him to freestyle now and you might get stomped out.
