A friend of mines, said it best about the professional teams in Atlanta: "A.T.L. Atlanta Teams Loose!" And you know what? Tonight just proved that. I went to my first Hawks game in about 11 years, and they lost big time in the playoffs... The last time that any team down here ever won a major sport was in 1996 when The Braves shocked the world, and The Cleveland Indians, to win the World Series... and since, The hawks made it to the playoffs 4 times, and the Falcons has been to the Superbowl only once, And The Thrashers record in the playoffs to date, 0-4... and year, after year, after year, the so-called "fans" of these teams, don't even show up until they are actually doing "good." Honestly, I can understand why some of these players don't wanna play here... I can understand why they ask for so much money to play here... Cause why would they wanna play in a town where the fans only come when they are successful? I can definitely understand that... You know, the prices on beer and food wouldn't be as expensive is people actually showed up to the games? and I'm not talking about the playoffs either... If people just showed up to a regular season game, that wasn't fans of there "hometown team," and actually showed some support, for there one of these 4 franchises, they probably would win some games and some championships... But its the Atlanta way, to try to get anyone interested in one of the major sports is like trying to send a retarded 2 year old kid, across the street in rush hour traffic... it is shocking, sad, funny, and mildly offensive... The true fans are the ones that show up and STAY during the game if the score is 70-0 in the favor of the away team... The true fans are those who take all the bullshit from the other fans, and still come back when the same teams play and take the same shit from the same asshole who is all balls deep about how there team is better than our Braves, Hawks, Thrashers, or Falcons... The true fans are there season after season play after play, heart attack after heart attack cheering for there teams, and all we can wish for is that in this fair-weathered shitty city...I'm not from here, and I LOVE me some Thrashers... I'm trying to reconnect with The Braves, and I hate basketball, but I wanna support the Hawks more, and The Falcons are almost there... I hope to support them more as well, however I am still a Panthers fan. :) But these teams has the talent, they have the coaching staffs, and the facilities... whats LACKING is the FANS! The city could be a great sports town, but with no "real fans" its just a town housing sports franchises... So, I can understand why Ilya Kovalchuk would wanna play somewhere else... I can see why Josh Childress would wanna play in Greece... I understand why no one wants to play here... cause the town, as a whole, is a fair-weathered sports city. And all the community service projects, all the autographs, all the give aways cant fulfill the athlete like asses in the seats. This basketball season saw a lot of it, but no one wanted to stay for the whole game... If you did, and showed that you cared to stay til the end, maybe the ideology of "Atlanta Teams Loose" Could just be "THE ATL: The city of winners!" And this is coming from a Carolina Boy too! I want to see these teams win the championships! And I wanna be there when it happens... I wanna be there when the fans are there... I wanna be able to ask if I could move to the end of the row, so I can have some leg room... One can only wish and hope... so lets hope that Atlanta gets there shit together as sports town. Am I wrong to think that? Just a thought... goodnight world.

You Can't Blame Them

SONG OF THE WEEK
This week IM going classic... this is one of my favorite songs ever. Why is it a fave? Cause thats what I am... Im always in the clutch... I come in to clean up the mess, and save the souls from complete destruction... When I heard this song, I knew that this was going to be the song of the week, in probably one of the most shittiest weeks for me personally... Cause, this song begs the question: "Do heroes get tired?" Do they work hard just to get rest? Do heroes deserve rest? When does the line of hero and villian gets crossed? Cause it does get a little old being "Mr. Right On Time." Its all good though... This song talks about just that one day where we can just be bigger than ourselves... Even if for one day... cause who knows whos life you will save with just a hello, a hug, or even a smile. So, sing "Heroes," one of my favorite songs, David Bowie. Enjoy.

Song Of The Week
This weeks song, wasn't that hard to choose... When your week is bad, when you hate everyone, and you see no reason to continue to just be available... Sometimes, as cowardly as it is, its just easier to just wanna say good-bye to the world... Its honestly sometimes easier for the world if they didn't depend on the good-hearted, easy-going, warm, loving, servant types... But even we get tired of it... This weeks song is from Felix Da Housecat, a house DJ that has been making waves in the industry for a long time now... He's made a name for himself, and the album which this song comes from (He Was King), has all the reasons to dance all night long. The name of the song is "Do Not Try This At Home." And it talks about the life of the lonely... Its never easy being lonely, cause it may feel as if someone is always laughing at you behind your back, after smiling in your face... So, if there is ever a great song that is a glimpse into the world of the socially suffering, this is it. Enjoy.
Wanna Know How I Know You're Gay?
I absolutely hate pop culture, and now, I'm starting to hate the un P.C., P.C. version of being offensive. For instance the word "wigger." Whoever came up with that phrase, FUCK YOU. Its STUPID, it doesn't solve the fact that you can finally say "nigger," and it just makes you sound, and look stupid saying a word, that ISN'T EVEN A WORD!!!! Another example, and the subject of this rant, this whole new "movement," in keeping your sexuality at bay, when you say something to describe someone of the same sex, called "No Homo." What in the living fuck is that suppose to mean?! So, if I was to say to another male on a whim, "Hey man, you have really pretty eyes," I'm now to let him, and, MOST IMPORTANTLY, myself know that I'm not gay by saying "no homo?" Ho. LY. SHIT!!!! That's INFURIATING!!!! I want someone to find me that lame ass frat boy reject, so I can beat the shit out of him... I bet you anything, he tries to peacock himself, just like those Jersey Shore guidos who gets all dressy for the ladies, with his hair up, collar up, and shirt at its tightest, skin as orange as a safety cone, and smelling like the inside of a Macy's, And looking proudly at yourself in the mirror at how your rise in douchiness, went out to see your friends who's been waiting for you for the past 3 weeks to get out of the bathroom, and they started to make fun of you. Then then entire night, they are talking about you to everyone else in the bar or club, or whatever... And you try to escape, and you happen to get a glimpse of a guy who dressed JUST LIKE YOU, and in passing, said something stupid, like: "Hey, lookin good brah!," and while he's looking at you, ready to kick your ass, your brain starts thinking of a way to puss out of your whoppin, you say the one thing that falls out of your mouth... not even formed in your brain, and it happens to be "NO HOMO!" And now, its an national sensation... FUCK YOU, FUCK OFF, GO FORTH AND ROT!!! This is seriously disturbing. when did having to defend your sexuality, in the year 2010, became something of pop culture and importance? If you cant compliment a guy on something of his without feeling gay, then, I'm sorry to brake it to you, you're gay! :shrugs: Sorry to say, but if you have to constantly remind yourself, and whomever that you're not gay, then you should kill yourself. Seriously... do the world a favor and die, cause you are not a man. If I wanna comment to a guy and say: "you look good!" or "you got pretty eyes" or "lookin handsome/good today," I can, if I want. I'm not making sure that I'm still a man by saying 2 words together that makes no since, and actually sounds retarded. I am confident in my sexuality to where I don't have to check it. I find women to be the sexiest creation in God's archive of awesome... But if she wants to check me, when I say to another guy "lookin good," and she walks away... shes not a woman... shes a girl on her period... A real woman knows what a man means, what her man means... no need for the self check with a "no homo." America is becoming more stupid, and there isn't an apology to be made for it... its sickening. This has got to stop, and someone has to put the stupidity in check. Be a man! Make a comment! Don't feel as if you have to check your sexuality you homo! Fuck! I'm done.
P.S. Wanna know something even more fucked up about this phrase? HIP HOP CULTURE MADE IT!!! Black people has gone APE SHIT since the election... THESE ARE THE DOWNFALLS OF A BLACK LEADER LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!!!!! Stupidity comin from the streets!! What in the fuck!?

Dear Costomers...
I realize that water is important for everyone, but it SERIOUSLY bothers me SO MUCH when you order water, and dont even touch it... If you are going to be the slime bag to ask me for water, and not drink it, I think you should just find a way to choke and drown in that glass of water... I dont know if you realize this or not, but it is SERIOUSLY a pain in the ASS for me, or any other server to go and grab you a water, and you dont drink it... If you order a drink, and a water, and you drink your drink and you dont touch your water, and then later in the week complain about the water shortage due to whatever drought, it is ALL YOUR FAULT!!!! You suck ass and I think that you should all go off and die. You really piss me off, and I hope that all your knowledge gets you killed... its amazing how pissy yall can get, and think that you are something, cause you know the answer to a trivia question... Knowing the answer to a trivia question is just like being the smartest newborn who can cry the softest... fuck you, and your trivial knowledge, and FUCK YO WATER TOO!!!! Choke on air and die you fucks...
Sincerely,
Jolly Green

Would You Run Down Pass The Fence?
Imagination is such a powerful tool to have. Without it, there wouldn't be a reason to dream, and without dreams, there wouldn't be something to live for... There wouldn't be stories to tell, or even a reason to love. Cause without imagination, you just stick yourself into a personal prison, where you do the everyday, mundane, pointless, just-trying-to-get-by bullshit... And when that happens, life becomes stale, and worthless to live. But with imagination, you can sore beyond the universe, and create your own. You can allow whatever to happen in whatever world you're trying to portray... And it doesn't matter the age, as long as you're willing to let whats in your head, come out in a creative form, its beautiful and needs no apology. That's why I love the imagination of kids... they allow themselves to see the world in an awe-inspiring, and beautiful way. Have you ever seen a 3 year old at the circus? If not, just look at them, they just sit there wide eyed and taking in whats SO BIG to them... The world is astounding, and I believe that if we actually took the time to allow our eyes to get wide at the world, we would be astounded by what we see. The world around is beautiful. Its full of beautiful people, beautiful colors, and just amazing to behold... And through that beauty, we can make our own story... We can come up with our own way to tell our life story, through whatever medium of art, music, or literature. If we use our minds, to dream, no one knows what you can create... Who knows, it could touch a life or a few. So, continue to create, continue to allow yourself to be bigger than this world... see whats on the other side of the mountain... see whats around the corner without getting up and looking... just use your mind to know whats around the corner... could be a monster, could be a portal to a quiet getaway... Hell, it could be the end of the world, or the end of the Keywork. :) God bless, I'm going to sleep now.

SONG OF THE WEEK
So yeah, this weeks song was hard to come by, only because, there are many a great song I heard this week, that I could have picked... But this weeks song comes from one of my favorite rappers. He's from LA, and he is a truth teller. He drops knowledge and not bullshit... he is definately worth the time... it comes from his 2005, major label debut (and his only major lable LP) entitled: "Murs For President" Murs, just comes correct, and he does so definately in his single "The Science." He basically takes the rise and fall and the bullshit that is low life people, and breaks it down scientifically, and gives his view of how it could all be better... So, this song is full of knowledge. So, I do hope you enjoy.
