"aint no three sheeters in here, but its a couple twos" - forty.
Man you ever walking around Wal-Mart or Target and just randomly see a baaaaaaaad (meaning good for my non-blacks) female come into your presence. A mans first impression is to analyze quickly and in a timely manner, because in times like this, time is of the essence. So some men look at womans bodies first and some look at faces. But in my journeys, I like to look at the overall girl and examine her aura. Yes-aura! Like Dave Chappelle sketch comedy, when Charlie Murphy met Rick James for the first time. Some girls actually have that aura and they come in different colors and scents. According to the color, its a good chance what type of female they are. For instance, if you see a deep purple glow around a female that are usually a sexual deviant and give off extreme sexual tension when you come to chill with them. Now in my short life I have only seen three colors. Purple, which I already explained, green and yellow. Green aura usually means the girl is high maintenance and only sees green in her future and only wants it. I stay away from green no matter how sweet the fruit looks. Now as far as yellow goes, these girls usually are sweet and adorable. I like to meet these types but usually just end up being friends. Now as far as auras go, you can only determine it when you first meet them (so don't come up to me asking me what aura you are!).
Another system I created was the knife and fork chicks. No they are not the best looking women who can cook and they are not the chicks who will stab you for doing something wrong. They are the type of women who look delicious, literally so you can eat them with a knife and fork ( and if they too juicy you got to pull out your spoon!) Now knife and fork chicks can range from 8s to straight dimes. To be a knife and fork chick you got to have three things. A seductive frame, mean shoe game and the walk of an angel. All three compliment each other, so its necessary to have all three. The good thing about a knife and fork chick is that you don't HAVE to be the best looking out the bunch, nor the classiest, but in some mens eyes they would eat you like a steak dinner.
The last system was inspired by a Bounty commercial. In the commercial, a father and son spill something on the floor. Before cleaning it, they analyze if they want to use three or four sheets to clean it up. Mom quickly comes in and cleans it with one. My system is a little different from theres because the more the better. When seeing some females you just want to "take care" of them all night long and that would demand three sheets. And if she a good,typical fuck that would require two sheets and one sheeter is needed if you just want to test the waters with a female. The legendary four sheeter should only be used if you are ready to get the girl preggo ASAP. I try not to jinx myself, so I don't even let those words come out my mouth. Well with that in mind, fellas and ladies jus don't make the screwface when I say some wild shit.

"I wouldn't be mad if he (Chris Paul) won the MVP" - tone.
This years playoffs have been boring and entertaining at the same time. Kobe Bryants Lakers are top dogs again, teams like the Pistons and Celtics seem ready for a championship run and the damn two face commercials just keep popping up. But this post isn't about the playoffs, its about the emerging superstars who are coming to the forefront on a national stage to show why the NBA will be safe again for another ten years. The world already knows about LeBron James, I am a witness and so are you. But for the average joe blow newcomers are showing themselves to the world on the grandest stage. First, there is Chris Paul. The 23 year old NC native from Wake Forest who is on the brink of leading his New Orleans Hornets to the Conference Finals. Paul does it with supreme passion and poise. When I see Paul play I think of a mix between Isiah Thomas and John Stockton. He has the scoring ability and tenacity of Zeke but the general like command on the floor like Stockton. Paul finished second in MVP voting to the Darth Kobe, but Paul's time will come soon enough. Another bright star who's playoff dreams ended a few hours ago is Dwight Howard. Now the world caught a glimpse of his showmanship as he took home the Slam Dunk Title but still the average joe doesn't know about him. Living under Patrick Ewing's wing, Howard has blossomed ever since entering the league straight from high school. After dominating 20-20 performances in the first round, Howard's Magic will would shortly fizzle out as the Pistons took them down. The great thing about Howard is that he is so young (22) and so good already. With moves as quick as Olajuwon and already being named as the most athletic center ever, Howard must now show and prove. The knock on his game as of late has been his inability to have the killer instinct. You know the thing you know the thing you see in Kobe's eyes when its crunch time or when the team is in need of a basket. Well, Howard has yet to develop that. I believe with hard work and a more competitve edge, Howard could average 30-15-5 if he wanted to, but time will tell. With these two at the forefront and Durant and Oden just getting out of there shell, the NBA should be safe. Lets not forget about Rose and Beasley coming to the land of Men next season either.
Complete list..
G - Chris Paul - New Orleans - 23

"you like this shit?" -lovetrain.
After black quarterbacks, the most scrutinized and talked about subject in the barbershop would have to be the evolution of the southern movement in hip hop. Heated debate surface as people against the southern movement believe their lyrics have no substance and are all beat driven records. This may be true in most cases, but I sincerely believe that the southern movement is hip hop, just a different sector. REAL hip hop consists of the Commons, Lupe Fiascos and Nas' that move more bootlegged units than anyone. The club music based hip hop that consists of the Unks, Soulja Boys and TPains all move there units through ringtones. Yes, there music may have kid-like lines and attract more girls to the dance floor than usual but hip hop is in need of something new and refreshing. Can you imagine going to the strip club and Big Booty Judy is dancing to "American Terrorist" or "One Mic"? NO! So the DJ will continue to play the dance oriented tunes, because it makes the club go off and its the best music to listen to when you are drunk. I guarantee if you have enough shots of vodka or tequila you WILL be yuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuling by the end of the night. But seriously, the southern movement isn't a trend or bout to die down soon. And thats jus real talk.
NOTE: I don't support all of it. I can only take it in doses. REAL rap will revive one day. Wale & Cool Kids this Fall!

"man its TOO many joints out here" - thump.
One word that scares the shit out of any black man is marriage. The M Word. To us, it means we will never see another va-jay-jay ever again but our wife's. Its very complex, because most of us want to settle down and find that special someone and start that perfect family, but its the fear of having one woman. But fellas, no more worrying, I have found the solution. Due to excessive successful black women emerging through all walks of life as engineers, businesswomen and entrepreneurs (horray!), it seems like the black man has many many options. As expected many of my fellow "brothers" still want to live that thug lifestyle, but hey thats another blog anyway. So that results in a limited supply of young black men who are trying to better themselves. Now for those who are, the selection of females is endless so finding the right woman may be tough. I believe for any man wanting to have that white picket fence and four children with the two car garage they MUST sew their wild oats first. In doing so, every man under the age of 23, trying to better themself has the RIGHT to be a whore and venture out into EVERYTHING. Even though this sounds dangerous and crazy I think it may be worth it, because when its all said and done and your waiting at the end of that aisle and your bride is walking down patiently, you will thank me. I estimate for every guy that fits my criteria to every girl that fits my criteria, we are outnumbered to a 1:10 ratio. But please fellas to every rule there are standards. For one, use a condom. The second is to not get emotional attachment and if you feel emotional attachment from her you need to get out of there ASAP! The last is to actually get to know these females. Even though she let you fuck in a week, she might be wifey. She might have everything you want and you just don't know it yet. If you actually try to get to know these ladies half aren't bad, a few are worth your time and one might even be the ONE. Godspeed goons.
NOTE: Ladies if you live this lifestyle you ARE a whore. Plain and simple. And yes, double standards do exist.

"nigga have you seen the uncut Nelly video!" - marley.
In 2007, BET created a forum to talk about the state of hip hop. The panel included intellectuals like Eric Michael Dyson and Rev. Al Sharpton and rap artists like T.I. and Nelly. In heated debates talking about everything from music effecting kids to the language and subjects in songs, the forum seemed to be against hip hop. But one aspect that got shafted in the rear with no vaseline was the state of the hip hop honeys. The forum seemed to believe that most of these girls are individuals who do not respect themselves and just believe they are a piece of meat. But in there defense I am here. I love these women, from there high cheekbones to curvacious bods. These women saved many rappers and video directors careers. Some even lasted longer than most rappers. Now don't get me wrong these women sometimes do portray themselves to be bitches, hoes, sluts and such but wasn't Halle Berry taking backshots from Billy Bob Thornton? And she won an Oscar. To me its all acting and some people can't get around that factor. For years, I worshiped these woman, because as a young adolescent these females are our goddesses and mermaids of TV. In time you have seen the pretty face innocent video chick (Lauren London) to the straight stacked full rib rack bods (Buffy the Body) and all have captured our "minds" at a time. I really appreciate these women. They are more than meets the eye and I really believe they deserve more respect in the game. This post is for you ladies, all of you.
NOTE: Melyssa Ford is the best to ever do it.

"dog, obama is where its at" - flyyguyy
It seems to me that Barack Obama has brought a great stir into the presidential debate as of late, great! This isn't a blog about voting for Obama or even displaying his views. This blog is about how people are eating off of this man and not even sitting at the table. At first, I thought they were pretty cool, I cant lie. But it seems now, that each and every clothing company is manufacturing, producing and distributing Obama tees. In 2004, Puff created a juggernaut with the Vote or Die tees and now every company is following in his footsteps. Its just amazing to me how one man who some people don't even support are making his clothes and selling his campaign. And to the buyers of these tees I just want to know ask you are you a fashion icon or actually in faithful support of the Illinois Senator. Do you know his political standpoint or views on America, Iraq, health care and the middle class? I believe before you put on your favorite Obama tee, the least you can do is learn about him and his motives and not just to hop on the bandwagon.
NOTE: obama WILL be KING.

"man im jus praying for a period" - lovetrain
As a college student at a HBCU, there are many things yoiu can find yourself getting into that can't get yourself out of. For instance, I myself had to take a few accounting classes twice due to my inability to perform adequately in the classroom, but life goes on. In some peoples decision at any university sex, drugs and alcohol are the easiest escapes from the college stressors and pressures. But in high consumption of any of the three, may lead to ones addiction, injury or even death. But in sex, the worst case scenario, besides HIV, is pregnancy. I believe there is no way of getting around having sex in the college atmosphere. The whole, no-parenting-endless-freedom-too-much-free-time is just asking for someone to commit premarital intercourse. But what hurts me the most, is to see young black females with there head on straight and ready to rip the world into pieces get pregnant. It seems that the more you have sex with a person the more you feel comfortable with them, which may lead to not using a condom. Now, I know she can't help if a guy decides not to put on protection, but as a black female you must be ready for any and everything out here so I don't see why more black women are on birth control. If you are a young black woman and you KNOW you are sexually active why not get the shot, pill, patch, etc. There have been too many advancements in science to not want to protect yourself. I believe no one at this age is ready for a child financially, emotionally, physically and spiritually. I understand there are a few side effects like weight gain, mood swings and such but if I were a female i would be on birth control ASAP. Another weird factor is once getting preggo, females have to make the decision of to keep the child or abort it. No woman should be forced to make such a choice like that, so to avoid that all together, I suggest you (the female) to get on birth control. Everyone knows birth control can be a rough transition when first getting on it, but is it not worth it. I've seen too many go down the broken road of leaving there dreams or delaying them for a baby. In this day in time, the condoms seem to be getting thinner and the sex is becoming more demanding. Protect yourself and your future ladies, please. There is way too much at stake for you to be starting a family now.
SIDENOTE: Any female that has had a baby or is having a baby that is under 23 or having a child that is unexpected I praise you. You are stronger than you ever thought you were and you and your healthy baby is still here. This blog is not here to attack you, but to give light to the younger sisters of your generation to be aware and know whats going on. I am not trying to bash you or hate on you. I love you.

"if Gary Williams recruited in PG County, the Terps would have two rings" - anonymous
In recent years college basketball has been on the forefront of sports entertainment. From Florida's consecutive national championships to all four #1 seeds playing in the Final Four in this years past tourney, college basketball is at an all-time high. But if look far down off of 495, the Maryland Terrapins are suffering from another lack luster season. Even with Gist, Osby and Grieves the Terps still couldn't go dancing. I believe that in college basketball, the coaches should be accounted for coaching methods and recruitng methods. Which brings me to my subject of Gary Williams and his style. Over the past few years the metro area has seen some ridiculous talent fly through and above and out the area. This list includes freshmen phenom Michael Beasley from K St and last years freshmen sensation and this years NBA Rookie of the Year Kevin Durant, just to name a few. My question is why isn't Williams recruiting within his own territory. In the year, LSU shared a piece of the national championship in football, half the team was from Louisiana. I just don't see why Williams doesn't do the same. Through the years I can think back I can only recall ONE terp to get significant minutes and be from the area-Chris McCray. McCray came from Fairmont Heights and lit my alma mater (DuVal) up for 34 points in a playoff game in his senior season. McCray was part of the last decent and somewhat good Terp team with him, Caner-Medley, Gilchrist and such. But due to players leaving early, the team would go through a dry spell and die out to become mediocre in its present day. All I want is Williams to take a look at some of the hungry and raw talent that comes from these parts. I can not stand to see anymore talent from this area play in any other color than Terrapin Red.
Complete list..
F - Michael Beasley - DC - Kansas St.
F - Kevin Durant - PG - Texas
F - Jeff Green - PG - GTown
C - Roy Hibbert - Mo Co - GTown
G - Tywan Lawson - DC - UNC
G - Sam Young - PG - Pitt
G - Nolan Smith - PG - Duke
o well.
And by the way, I love my terps. They play hard and work hard. I appreciate any player to ever put on the Terrapin Red.

I am twenty something black college student addicted to the wrong things in life-sneakers,sports,women&music. I was born and raised in Gorgeous Prince George's County in Maryland and currently receiving a BS degree in accounting from NC A&T SU. Most of my close friends call me funny, clever, rude and crazy, but through it all I am just me. I believe I am just a nerd trapped into a cool guy's frame [lol]. I feel like I am about to bring a very informal style to the world of blogging and show some real imagery too. I am currently a server as well as a full-time student so I will tell some of the true stories of serving guests in the south. And to note, I am not a big typer so expect to see short stories and few extended paragraphs and lots of grammatical errors. This is my first time blogging so please be patient with me.

Hey, my name is Terry Mundell and over the past year or so I have debated on whether I would want to start or blog or not. But due to supreme boredom I said what the hell. In this blog you will find everything to music reviews to sneaker reports to sports analysis to an occasional porn drop. And on a more serious note I will discuss some of my ideologies and theories on the black community and culture. No I am no doctor, nor philosopher, but I think I do have a voice so this is why I am creating this blog. Some of the things I may say here you may find offensive, inappropriate or down right ignorant, but before judging me listen to what I have to say and my reason behind it. i really hope you become an avid viewer of the blog and comment on everything.
Enjoy your stay and welcome to ignorant nipple!
