double happiness

1. NOT BEING AROUND FOR THIS

2. EPIC BLOODY NOSES

excerpted from an interview with Pimpin’, producer and member of Dem Franchize Boyz

Pimpin : Well really you know what I’m saying, when we first got started it all began at college. Me Buddy and Parley we went to college [together]. We was just doing this shit for fun you know what saying. Like after class or just cutting class and just go make a song. We just used to make songs just for the hell of it. So we had like a hundred songs, so everybody came back to Atlanta. We had did “White Tee” but at the same time we had like a hundred songs. And the computer broke down and that’s what led us to start selling our records cause we ain’t sell our records we [would] just make songs just to have em right? But after the computer broke down all the little songs we had we just put em on CD and gottdamn started selling em tryna start up lil fund-raiser for a computer. We need a new computer so we can do it again. So after we got done doing that, we had the hit “White Tee” on there so… shit we just start doing it.

Quiet moments with Nas and DMX – LINK

In a dream, I was trying to prove that I was in fact a MoMA employee in order to get into a museum in Omaha, NE. To do so, I had borrowed a girl’s cell phone, which had internet access and VGA output, using some sort of proprietary, webTV-like interface.
I was trying to perform a specific site search for my name, to prove my afilliation with that domain name. The vast majority of the dream was spent testing out different permutations of the Google search “site:” modifier. Eventually I landed on “site-search:” as the correct expression.
Borna was sitting there the whole time, amused by my technological frustration. His only gesture of support occured when there was some sort of mirroring issue with the VGA display.
