Off to Chocolate City guys. I'll be back blogging tomorrow. In parting, here's something from the days before Jarobi left Tribe, and came to Mecca. People talk about hip-hop and forget how cool it could be to be a goofball.
I couldn't watch the game last night--they haven't started netcasting Monday Night Football yet--so I'd be interested in hearing some thoughts from you guys. In keeping with our discussion of Vince yesterday, it's really amazing to see the career Drew Brees is putting together...
There was some talk, in comments, yesterday about my exact stance on crime and punishment. As I said, I'd rather not repeatedly rehash my own thinking on criminal justice reform. It's easily accessible through the archives...
I think this was an incredibly ignorant, and presumptuous, comment by Hines Ward: "It's tough," he said of Roethlisberger's situation. "You don't want to jeopardize your future. It's a toss-up: You either play and jeopardize your future, or you sit out and worry about the big picture...
Played Kelis' Tasty all the way to the Eastern Shore and back. I know she had that one hit (Milkshake) but I really feel like this album, and this track, were utterly slept on. I'm pretty sure they shot this one in Harlem. But it makes me think of being, like, twelve back in B-More...

Via Andrew, some real talk from David Frum:I was interviewed on PBS last week about Palin's book release. I said that Palin had an especially serious problem with women voters.This is just fact, again recorded in every survey...
There's a cool piece on the conservative critique of the criminal justice system in the Times. Two things caught my eye for different reasons. First this from Ed Meese:In an interview at the Heritage Foundation, a conservative research group where he is a fellow, Mr...
Saul Williams doesn't like it. I think I'd probably care a lot more, had I went to Morehouse (as Saul did.) It's a little hard for me to get upset about a small, elite college enforcing a dress-code. I don't think this sort of thing what have worked at a lot of the larger HBCUs...
