Ride On Deeez

You’d look so hot in it! Don’t you agree!?

When I started making mix tapes for my friends, they were made for their Walkman, their chill-in-the room time and, sometimes, they’d be used during parties and stuff. (That was back in ‘95, ‘96.) I eventually noticed that they’d be used more and more for their time in the car. The Shiznit thing on my site started out as makin’ CDs for my friends’ rides. (When you got just a handful of people to take care of and you know their personalities, it’s pretty easy to do.)

Anyways, I find that music (or a radio program) is essential to having a good trip in your car. And with the car subculture becoming more and more prevalent in modern times, it’s no longer odd to find joints centered on cars. I could go on and on about tricked out cars, speed demons, car preferences by region, etc.

All these joints reflect the car subculture somehow. (I’ve focused on hip-hop and left out quite a few tunes such as the classic William DeVaughn’s “Diamond In The Back”.) I’d encourage you to find them. Burn ‘em onto a disc, or make a playlist and enjoy ridin’ in the whip. (By the way, I’ll start posting my playlists once I get Serato and become good enough at it.)

Microsoft's Zune

Microsoft Zune

Microsoft Zune

If you ask me, that joint looks too big and ugly for it’s size. They’ve advertized the nicer features – big screen, wireless music sharing capability, FM radio – but some important questions are left unanswered. (If you have a media player, you should be able to see thru it.) Microsoft are bound to make mistakes, but I also expect them to make huge improvements in later generations of the Zune – and they’d better if they wanna compete with the iPod. Check out Microsoft’s site for more info on the Zune.

You. Must. Learn....

Disclaimer: I was listening to KRS-One when I was writing this up. I thought it was a catchy title. I don’t think so highly of myself that whatever comes out of here should be taken in as gospel. These are just a bunch of articles I found interested and wanted to share.


Ordinary people have been clamoring against the tyrannic music labels slapping lawsuits left and right and blaming the online piracy for the decline in music sales. Maybe they’ll listen to analysts...

...So far, Universal plans to take the most proactive approach.

There’s a big misconception about IT (Information Technology) folks. We’re thought of more often than not as repairmen. I’m new into the field but I would tell you that it’s more involved than you’d think/imagine. It is with pleasure that I recently read a myth-busting blog entry, and I invite you to the same.

An abduction with a good ending is not that rare. But this one is unbelievable. Talk about beating the odds! I hope that Natascha will go on to have a normal life and her family can put this ordeal behind them and catch up on those eight lost years. And, most of all, I hope the media will get their cue when it’s time to leave them alone. No need to make a circus there.
