hey family! everyone good? awesome. everyone still fighting about nothing and everything? faaantastic.well ive been neglecting you my pretties so here's a lil thing i was thinking about whilst walking down wilshire at my new jobby! yes new job, but that's neither here nor there...WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO THE BOX? is this not popular anymore? maybe its just not popular in LA. i mean, ok, there's something really odd about folks walking down the blvd with ipods attached to their heads. even on the buses, man them shits are real quiet down here. everyone got wires coming out their heads. no more box. WTF! i miss hearing andre nickatina on the 7, gangsta flea on the 21 blown tweakers and all. rockin them tapes. LA needs to embrace the fuckin box already. no?

    hattboxer!

    well, im always entertained by the box. but now that i think about it, it is pretty entertaining to watch white folks walking down the street bobbing their heads to nothing at all.

    Damn Abuelito, I thought youse was talking about the music channel The Box, where you could call up and pay for music videos. They had all the 2 Live Crew classics and Sir Mix-a-lot's "Put'em on the glass" video. It had the corny animation between songs where there would be a The Box logo jumping out of a box. For a while they would charge it to your phone bill and you could call up from a dude's house you didn't really know and then after ordering ten videos without him knowing it, you would casually say "Hey turn The Box on, lets see what they have on" and it would be NWA's "100 Miles and Running," followed by Snoop videos, L.O.N.S., and Brand Nubian. You'd steal some from homies mom's stash and wile out. Then dude was all, "man, whoever ordered those videos did a good job!" while you were all cracking up. Whatever happened to that shit?! That was the best.

    haha! we had that in THE NO[/b] but it kinda sucked cuz it would be 8 hours of "nuthin but a g thing" followed by 6 hours of fugi's "city of fresno" and then back to 8 hrs of g thing. my dad knew one of the dudes in the city of fresno video. that shit was low budget as hell. but yeah, the box was cool. i wish they woulda showed more "put em on the glass" but folks just dont have good taste in fresno.

    you dick!

    ha! That was probably one dude who ordered nothin but a g thing, nad saying "Its not playing, let me try again" until he tried forty times, like "yeah ok its on now!" Same thing with the fugi dude, fucking bay area stoners, that shits just too potent out there.

    So you meant boom boxes on the bus? The other day I got on the 6 train and some dude was blasting Yvonne Eilman's "If I Can't Have you, I don't want nobody baby." He was brown baging a 22 of O.E. and jamming. You know that part when the hook hits, he was all swingin his head side to side. Oh yeah, dude was in a black leather jacket, long black hair in a pony tail, bandana, and a bunch of chains. That real schitt!!!

    sup chan! how was new years? you eat your soba and mochi?


    hey folks, ever notice that whitefolks with boxes are generally nuts? like they usually got that shit strapped up to their 10 speeds blasting reba mcentire flying the stars and stripes with like 2 or 3 bike bells on the handle bars. there was this old dude in clovis that had a grown-up trike with a box and a big ass "drive slow" sign on his back basket. we used to throw water balloons and rotten eggplants at him when he'd roll around our neighborhood. anyways, see yall in hell!
