that'll do, pig

I'm going to do a proper update soon but first...



Please go to your local comic book store and pick up The Pro

Watch The New X-MEN 2 Trailer
(requires Quicktime)

Finally...

But did anyone really see it? I thought it was funny that there were no real pictures until two days later. Do you want to know why? Because the WNBA gets as much coverage as the U.S. Soccor League. Actually, they would be lucky to get that kind of coverage...no one is "assigned" to their local WNBA team. So they had to wait for the WNBA to provide them pictures. I don't even think AP had a picture until today.

kinda sad...

Speaking of basketball, why does anybody in the age of free-agency, buy basketball jerseys? They are such a waste of money. I chuckled every time I saw someone with a Marcus Camby jersey.

The only jerseys that are really safe to buy:
-Michael Jordan (he's not being traded...if he plays)
-Shaquille O'Neal
-Kevin Garnett (but as his deal gets closer to being up, you might wanna start wearing it less and less)
-Allan Houston (he aon't going anywhere)
-Hardwood Classics (a.k.a. Throwback jerseys, they cost too damn much. you swear they were stolen out of the player's locker room and smells like them too)

---------
Speaking of jerseys, it's time for me to get my personalized jersey that I talked about getting before I lost my job...

Yes, it will say "Melanism" on the back (so if you don't know me for real, you could slap me on the street)

The question now becomes what team to get it on...

I think I will get the Jets because I wanna rep NY but my friend Improv already has the Giants Jersey I would have gotten with "Improv" on the back so it would look like we were playing "on the same team" and that's kinda gay...
---------------------------------
Now, behold....

MELANISM'S MP3'S OF THE MONTH

Seeing that I didn't have anything for July, I'll do two.

July: Talib Kweli - Good To You (produced by Kayne West)
August: Freeway - What We Do (produced by Just Blaze)

Enjoy...

I'm back.

For how long I do not know...

I underestimated how much work I was going to have to do here and now maintaining this site has become much more difficult.

But I won't give up.

Like anyone cares.

Anyway, shall we begin with some interesting links...

Was The Matrix a complete rip-off of Dark City? What do you think?

Do you like Spider-Man? Does that make you gay?

-Since last I posted something of substance, I turned 25. Happy Birthday to me. All wire transfers can be sent to ego@melanism.com.

-Also, The draft came and went and the Knicks got Antonio McDyess for Marcus Camby. Hm. What do I think? Well, first of all, i am glad to be rid of the scarecrow, Marcus Camby. Don't get me wrong. When he played, Marcus was great. I remember that year we went to the Finals, Marcus Camby was the man. He was a fierce blocker and dunker. But the operative word in all the nice stuff I said about Marcus is "..when he played..." He never finishes a season. Speaking of not finishing a season, McDyess missed all but three games last year because of surgery. Will he be 100%? Who knows but doesn't the seaosn for the Knicks open with a question?

Oh yeah, AND WE STILL DON'T HAVE A CENTER?!?!?!


Uh oh...back to work
