I don’t know too much about Switzerland other than the Ricola cough drops that they make. Might I mind you that these cough drops are amazing by the way. Any who, H. Moser & Cie. Swiss Alps, a Switzerland watch company is probably going to get sued by Apple. Why? Well if you have already taken a look at the picture above than you know why. The company created a luxurious watch that replicates the Apple Watch.
How innovative is that?
With the rise of smartwatches, Switzerland has been losing marketshare. In what we can guess are efforts of revitalization to the classic time piece, Swiss Alps decided to construct a watch for older gentleman to where yet look hip among the younger crowds. The move sounds smart but in the end when you focus your attention to the design, it isn’t what its all cracked up to be.

TDE’s in house producer just dropped a throwback mix of al the classics that the black hippy members have released over the years. Give this a listen, there were some songs I haven’t even heard before!
A lot of the information in this video I already knew. Ab-Soul is one of my favorite artist and possibly the best lyricist of out time. I think saying “one of my favorite artist” isn’t the right term though, maybe my NUMBER ONE favorite artist, lol.
Hope you enjoy learning about the man who inspired me to be a better rapper.
ps. T.I. inspired me to rap
pss. Thanks Michael McCrudden for putting this together.

I really dislike drama.
I dislike drama so much that I sometimes don’t even want to go to work becasue I would rather not deal with any of the bafoons in there. Last night had to have been one of the childish acts I have seen in such a long time at UPS. Heres how the story goes…
We started at 9:30 last night becasue we picked up 11 more trucks from the Lexington Hub. Everything was fine and dandy the first 2 hours of the night. I think it was around 2AM I got thirsty and all my Heine Brothers tea was gone so I decided to walk down to the main break room. The main break room has a card reader and as you know, us millennial’s don’t ever carry cash. I picked up a blue powerade and some munchies along with some sweet and spicy peanuts. I made my way back down to my area which is on the other side of the building. I walk fast bobbing up and down so I made it back in no time.
I took a look at my belt which of course backed up but not red lighting, which is a good thing. I ran in and began to clear off anything. I remember I took a look down and saw what I thought was my load stand. I tried to push it back but it didn’t move. I got confused as hell thinking back to earlier in the night if I had two load stands to begin with. I grabbed the fairly new looking load stand and slung it out of the truck . I hurried to clear off my belt and then proceeded to ask my co-workers for answers.
The first person that I asked was little ol bubble butt next door who just so happened to not be in her truck. I spotted her in the back by de-scale chopping it up with Jessica. I briskly made my way over and asked her how long have I had two load stands in my truck. As I said that Jessica and her friend Sarah both looked in surprise and a little bit of laughter. Still confused I asked, “Wait what happened?” According to Jessica, when her and Sarah went out on a smoke break, they saw my supervisor go and grab the load stand that Sarah usually sits on and throw it in my truck.
As I recall, before I even walked back to de-scale to begin asking questions, I ran into Andrew (the supervisor, sup)who played dumb as hell when I asked him why there were two load stands in my truck. Still playing stupid, he kicks the load stand under Stephs belt and walks off.
Anyways, Sarah gave me the full scoop on what happened.
Earlier in the night Sarah approached me asking who is supposed to be doing the Chase truck becasue it was red lighting. That truck is usually done by my homies Daimont and Brandon but since we were short of staff we had to cover trucks that were either getting hit or about too. Chase was slow in beginning of the night but gradually picked up as the night grew. I told her I didn’t know where he was and ran back to once again clear my belt.
According to Sarah she said she went down to the office to find Andrew who was in there eating chips and talking to another sup. Being calm and collect, she told him what was going on then walked out of the office. What seemed like a sheer act of respect turned for the worse when he followed her all the way back talking shit into her ear.
[Brief intermission]
First of all, How in the hell are you a supervisor acting like a child?! The shit does not make any sense!
[End of intermission]
So at about this point, I eventually ran into Andrew who had a mouth full of chips and mumbled for me to clear off Chase in which I did.
Then of course all that other stuff happened and yeah, end of story.
Stuff like this makes me question my presence in the facility. I mean, I am only there just for school but I’m not even doing good at that (Check archive for that). I really hate working with the people there too becasue of the high turn over rate so we’re always getting newbs. Some are cool some are not.
But yeah, work drama sucks.

Im restlessly waiting for the pork ribs that I put into the microwave to be warm. Last night was my first time ever having ribs.
5 minutes later…
Okay, I have retrieved them from the microwave. Do you got to heat them at a different temperature or something? I don’t know, all I know is that I really don’t eat pork often. I mean the only type of pig product I have been eating is bacon. Only thing with that is I eat bacon when I go to Waffle House, and I’m not even there that often. But ribs is a new thing to me. Before taking a bite I went through this mental onslaught of memories of people talking about eating ribs and barbecues and stuff. It was very weird.
Anyways, here I am at 6 in the morning talking about eating swine! Look, we call all agree that I am very stoned now and that the barbecue licking that I am doing is amazing!!!!! But I have nothing better to do but go and update my blog about a new experience I am having. It sounds crazy right?

Let talk about this for a second. The game makes some valid statements here and its on right to consider his opinion. I mean why did it take these females who claimed to have been raped over 10 years? Shouldn’t that be something you report to the police right after it happened? I know that I cannot speak for these woman but maybe its was fear that kept them from telling? I’m not sure, its the fact that they put this man into custody, take a mugshot of him and this was all based off what a bunch of woman said. Yet as Game points out in his open letter, Police officers who shot and killed plenty of black males on video are enjoying the new year as a FREE man.
What sense does that make?

Sorry folks, Im still catching up. I got articles to write for another website so that has me pushed back. Plus I gotta leave for work in an hour so my brain is rushing to get stuff done.
Anyways, Day 2 we’re supposed to be changing out title and tag line. I personally like the way my title and tagline are. I’ve had them for almost 5 years now and I don’t plan on changing them unless I come up with something better. My blog isn’t directed toward one specific piece of content. I talk about a lot of stuff. Some of which you may hear on my podcast this Saturday.
Moving on to Day 3 of our blogging 101 conquest, I guess I should go around and follow new blogs. I found a few neat ones today and have followed them. I didn’t know that there was so much on wordpress. When I first joined the community wasn’t like it is now, or maybe I just didn’t interact enough. Either way, I’ve come across the most interesting short stories and new articles that I could find.
Welp, I’ll close the keypad right about here and finish up some other needed business. Who knew that I would blog so much?
