So far, an interesting read.

People still go roller skating?

Dame, if you're reading this I will donate $100 to your favorite charity if you can get the words Sly Poker Dog in one of your raps.

haha I thought the same thing.

Actually, roller blading is something I'm hoping to get back into. Nothing like taking a summer day and putting on some headphones and cruising around. Back when I did it, though... I had an anti-skip CD player and a cd case to carry with me... Damn, it's been a while.

I'll double Sly's offer for "BlazingGiants".

Ha. Had the yellow Sony sport. That thing was indestructible and was water resistant. Also carried that while rollerblading.

hahaha yes. I use to have one of those too.. but man, you'd get lost in the music on the way, and realize "Crap, I have to blade all the way back." lol!

I guess I missed out on the rollerblading with a walkman fad

But you were star of the rollerblading-in-spandex fad, and that will live more in infamy than anything I've ever done.

I did go to a place called skate world in Gresham as an 11 year old and held hands with a brunette girl during a reverse couples skate for an entire Richard Marx song. By the end of it our hands had transformed intertwined into an horrifyingly mingled clammy paste of prepubescent fear and excitement. We kissed by the egg machine and changed back into our shoes in silence.

Can't touch this.

As a father of a daughter, I can't let the karma come back to me, as good as the response would be.

Truthfully, I don't think I've roller skated since then haha, been ice skating a few times, but I'd probably wipe out due to intoxication

 

[Strenuus]

So... yes?

[rasheedfan2005]

Ive always liked rappers who can rap without cuss words. Dont get me wrong, shit and fuck are my favorites, but even my pasty white ass can rhyme them

Easily my favorite quote from the article:

It's funny, people always say, 'build your brand,' but a lot of times when people focus on building your brand it's not authentic, it's not real," he said. "It's just doing whatever you've got to do to build this foundation, to build this platform, and gain a following. For me, I think it's been so easy because I've only been myself. It means something to me to do stuff for your community, to do stuff for others. I like to bring others up. That's always been a part of who I am.
