Watch Roger Do His Thing

Must see TV this weekend: Turn on CBS Sat 3p ET, & Sun 4p ET.

You need to "Watch Roger Do His Thing" (c) Main Source off their 1991 album Breaking Atoms

Roger Federer
aka the 2000s GOAD (greatest of the decade) athlete
aka the future tennis GOAT
aka Fed

is finna cop his 12th Grand Slam title at the US Open (USO).

Yes, at age 26, Fed is gonna be only 2 GS titles away from Sampras' record 14 titles. There's a real chance that Fed could break Sampras' record at the 2008 USO! Barbaric!

The final four is looking mighty meh in terms of having a real chance at beating the mighty Fed

In the semifinal on Sat, it's "deja vu all over again" (c) Yogi Berra. Fed is playing Davydenko aka Phil Collins v3.0, in a repeat of the 2006 USO semi. Don't be surprised if Fed's homie/hypeman/weed carrier/non-GOAD Tiger Woods is chillin in Fed's box [||] along with Fed's girlfriend Mirka, just like in 2006.

Fed pwns Davydenko 9-0 in the head-to-head [||] record

In the final, Fed will either face
Yung Djok aka Chia Head aka Novak Djokovic. The H2H is 4-1. Djok beat Fed in August in the Canadian Masters tourney, but that was a 3-setter where Djok won 2 tiebreaker sets. Anyone that's played tennis knows that tiebreakers are 50-50 crapshoots. I seriously doubt Djok can beat Fed in a best-of-5-sets format.

Djok could lose the semi, in which case Fed will play David Ferrer in the final. The H2H again is total sonnage, 9-0 for Fed.

Fed seemed to be "in full flight" in the Quarterfinal match vs Andy Roddick. Roddick played great tennis, but Fed was too Fed-like, so A-Rod lost in straight sets, although sets 1 & 2 were close tiebreaker sets.

So watch "dat shyt" (c) Belize. Hey in 2040 your grandchildren might want to ask you what is was like to see the greatest athlete in the last 50 years, "live & direct" (c) Phife Dawg. Sorry basketball stans, your future grandkids will NOT be referencing Jordan!

Fermi Paradox

Does your brain need some stimulation [||]? Read this wiki article on the Fermi Paradox.

Basically the paradox is
1 given such a high likelihood of many, possibly millions+, intelligent civilizations existing in the visible universe, & even in our Milky Way galaxy

2 why have 0 of them "hollered at us" [||].

This futurist John Smart has a really mind-blowing [||] theory, that inevitably the most intelligent civilizations will evolve to engineer another universe inside a black-hole [||] type singularity. The parameters of that new universe's physics will be chosen/engineered to maximize the amount of time, energy, & information-processing abilities available. WTF?! This theory would explains the Fermi paradox, in that no intelligent civilization would bother with the energy/time/money needed to colonize other star systems. It's cheaper/better just to cop/design your own universe.

Elizabeth Warren speech "The Coming Collapse of the Middle Class"

This Elizabeth Warren speech on "The Coming Collapse of the Middle Class", is quite insightful & interesting. Another example on how families & individuals shoulder too much risk in the society.

Warren also has a blog, & her Harvard professor website.

My take, in the long-term, we "regular Americans" need to fight for our rights politically.

In the short-term & long-term, save significant money to have as a buffer against layoffs, a major family illness, or other life risks that are now almost totally shouldered by families/individuals.

Hurricane Katrina, 2 yr anniversary

It's already been 2 years since Hurricane Katrina. The situation in New Orleans in 2007 is still fugazi, as Amy Goodman exposed on Democracy Now.

Talib Kweli & Bun B made a great song, on Kweli's 2006 Confidential mixtape, about Hurricane Katrina & it's aftermath, "None Of Us Are Free". Kweli's verse (the 1st verse) is more insight contained in 16 bars, than most editorialist writers can write in their opinion articles. It's certainly more insightful than what cable news pundits spew. Check it out.

Also know that hurricanes unfortunately don't stop. The homie Belize had photos showing the damage of Hurricane Dean on his home country Belize. Unfortunately, there's another hurricane heading towards Belize also. You won't prolly hear about it on CNN, since the elite douchebags running the American MSM, don't care anything about the Americas region, unless they have oil (Venezuela).

Gravy Bread - mp3 blog directory

This site Gravy Bread is a directory of many MP3 blogs, of all types of genres.

Gravy Bread also intellectually ethers the RIAA. If the RIAA has a soul, it's burning slow!

OUR PACT WITH THE RIAA

We agree to the following:

No one visiting the links featured via Mega Super Mammoth has at any time downloaded any music owned by the RIAA-affiliated music industry companies.

If you can believe that, then we in return pledge to believe that the RIAA-affiliated companies have never illegally or unethically paid payola to radio disc jockeys, engaged in monopolistic practices, screwed countless artists out of royalties (including and especially black blues artists), cooked their books with creative accounting to rook artists and avoid taxes, or engaged in any of the other sleaze-bag practices that the RIAA-affiliated companies have been found guilty of in the past or are continually accused of by the artists they claim to be protecting.

No, we will continue to dutifully buy the overpriced, spyware-infected product of the RIAA-affiliated companies so that our favorite Hollywood music tycoons will have the war chest they need to continue filing scattershot extortion lawsuits against defenseless, penniless children and grandmas they randomly find in the phone book and so that they can celebrate by tooling around LA in their Bentleys snorting coke. After all, we would not want to deprive them of that.
