Island Jams & Kobe Slams

Okay, so far so good if I do say so myself. This blog is working already. I'm addicted to a new cartoon and in search of a book in which one character speaks to a piece of shit.

I'm in the right place.

Right now I've got Bob Marley jamming on the ipod. Redemption Song & Three Little Birds are great songs... obviously. I recommend listening to them at least once a month, and anytime you feel stressed. So, with the year we're all having, maybe move that up to once a week... hrmm... maybe once a day. BUT there is another song, one I'd never heard before that has a great vibe. It's called Easy Skanking and below is a verse:

Excuse me while I light my spliff;
Good god, I gotta take a lift:

From reality I just cant drift;

Thats why I am staying wit
h this riff.

Give it a listen when you get a chance. Then you can go randomly tell other people to listen to it, and every once in a while, you can say "skanking" in the Marley context. Maybe we can bring this long dead word back from the dead. Yeah. This plan is fool-proof.

Outside of listening to my ipod EVERYWHERE I go... in the office, in the car, at the house, working on the yard, while I work out (not the largest use in frequency), etc... I have been ABSOLUTELY FUCKING ADDICTED TO THE NBA PLAYOFFS. It's on tv right now as I have my ipod shuffling through Mr. Marley songs.


What's that Black Mamba? BOOYAH!


Okay, well I'm off to watch the rest of the Lakers v Rockets game (damn West Coast teams and their crazy timeslots).

PS - Preview for upcoming post...


Yeah, you knew I'd bring comics in at some point...

  1. Nice post.

    I'm loving the blog so far. Now I'm off to download some Bob Marley. And send what you've got to my dropbox if you don't mind.
