apple netbook (?)

so once again the web is a buzz with rumors of apple's long suspected touchscreen netbook. this thing has long been rumored, but recently received some sort of credibilty via the dow jones newswire. but as is the case with apple, who has denied being able to produce a mac under a grand, there really is no telling. but that has not stopped people from mocking up some possible designs.
so here are 2 of my faves.

crazy am

last night i did mad hw, had stinky workin on a paper, slept like 2 hours, only to wake up to see stinky STILL workin on said paper! after packin up my ish and already late, i headed to skool. just as im bouts to jump on the 605, i turn right on a red and get rolled by a po.

now obviously i did sumthing illegal, but really tho, not only am i clearly a broke ass as is evident by both the exterior and interior of my hooptie, but im also a student as is evident by my lovelife bag sitting next to me on the passenger side, so why not give a brotha a break!? i mean i can easily just be let off with a warning, but unfortunately my titties are just a wee bit on the small side.

so not only did the ticket process delay me an extra 15 minutes, i arrive at skool only to find out that my teacher is not here. instead there's a note taped to the wall explaining today's lame assignment and making it very clear that all the mad hw including the now infamous paper will be collected next week! ain't that about a bitch.

rockband: the beatles

so the much talked about and highly anticipated rockband: beatles game has offically begun it's marketing campaign. now the debate as to whether this game is too little too late is irrelevant, however what IS relevant is my ass needing to buy a gaming system asap!

unfortunately i be pobre and shite and unless that game is coming out for sega or old skool nintendo, imma have to sell sum ass or sum ish cuz rockin out to the beatles rockband style is just too amazing to pass up!

eye spy

a prosthetic eye with a built in camera is sum crazy ish! the appropriately named eyeborg project is working on a prosthetic eye for 36-year-old filmmaker rob spense. with sum of the the smallest and most effiecient tech available today the eye camera will capture and send video signal wirelessly to an rf transmitter the size of a tip of pencil. Rob and team are currently working on a doc about the project and experience of living with a bionic eye.

la lupe

late night sumtime last year, i came across an extremely interesting pbs doc on the cuban singer la lupe. not only was i blown away by her immense talent and torturous life, i was also equally shocked that as a cuban i had never heard of her. while watching the doc i began to understand why that was, and how a rival singer by the name of celia cruz finally got the leg up and took la lupe's place in cuban music history.

since viewing that doc, la lupe, her story and her music have always randomly popped into my head. this morning was just one of those random times.
