Update Status

Since my laptop got a virus, its out of commission, and using a older computer right now, which I plan to only use really for emails and fantasy checks. I still going to use facebook and twitter, but wont probably post a new blog until I get my new desktop computer, which should be in early December. So no video blogs such as Fitted of the Day Series, or random pictures. Probably do a quick post for Thanksgiving, but really that would be it til then.

So if you not already following me, hit me up on twitter.com/vanle23, or friend me at facebook

The War Room... Closing

So I guess no more ragin on Capitol Hill and no more "Yo Son! Saturdays". Closing up shop at the end of the month, but is up for sale, so maybe with new management, it could be open up again or be a new name.

Pacquaio vs Cotto


Fight goin down Nov 14 , 2009 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Its goin to be a catchweight fight at 145lbs and for the WBO Welterweight Title

Akino feat Bless4 - Genesis of Aquarion

For those who don't already know, I listened to J-Pop [Japanese Pop] music. I watch a lot of Anime too. For those that bother to care, this is from the anime Sousei no Aquarion [Genesis of Aquarion], and sang by Akino feat Bless4 [siblings of Akino].

This is the English Accapella Version, different from the Japanese Version which has more of a pop rock sound to it.


Some Translations for the first part of the song:

You grow up once again, again and again, going off far away.
In anguish I watch over you, unable to rest...
Just to sing your name...

aishiteru means "I Love You" in Japanese

9 Year Old Stops Carjacking

Storytime - My 24th Birthday



Phil Ivey - 4 Days 3 Nights



Even though I haven't played Poker for a year now, its nice to see a pro at the final table at the World Series of Poker, as seen on ESPN. Its suppose to end tomorrow night, but ESPN will show coverage of the final table until a winner is crowed . Phil Ivey is among the final 9 players. Here is a report as documented in ESPN the Mag, as well as E:60

Robin Thicke feat Jay-Z: Meiple (Me I Play)

Sammy Sosa - Only Lighter

[left: from 2006; right: last week]

For those who dont know anything about baseball, he used to play for the Chicago Cubs and was known for hittin Homeruns, but has become infamous for playing with a Corked Bat, and not tryin to speak in front of Congress. I understand that he doesn't play anymore, so you might not be in the sun everything, but man, looks like he tryin to pull a Michael Jackson turning from black to white. He claims it from his skin rejuvenation. Personally, looks like a zombie.
