So I’m about to do something thats completely out of character for me. ANd while I’m not entirely sure about how to go about it, I definitely have the feeling that I NEED to do it.

I’m getting the fuck outta Dodge! Well, not Dodge but 6311 apartment 7. Anyone who knows me knows that I have absolutely no patience and its not that I can’t wait to move but landlord here in all of his sun-burnt glory is acting a damn fool and I need to raise on out of the sitaution. And it has not been a easy transition.

First I was trying to get the utilities in the house switched over, which didn’t happen. Apparent my aunt, the house’s previous tenant has a $500 gas & electric bill and because we have the same last name it looked too much like we were trying to get one over them. So my mom had to write up a lease agreement and we both had to sig it and get it notorized. Keep in mind that my mom lives about an hour away from me, so I had to spend all evening yesterday driving to take care of that, which means that I don’t have a lot of time to pack. Did I forget to mention that I’m working 4am to 4pm all this week? The sliver linning is that I’m losing weight from all the stress. Yah!

You may not know who Toth is, but if you’ve grew up within the last 30-40 years you’ve seen his work.

Toth was born in 1928, and had a career that took him both into comics and animation, and was perhaps best known for his stylistic interpretations at Hanna-Barbera during the ’60s and ’70s while working on such properties as Space Ghost, Challenge of the Superfriends, Fantastic Four, Herculoids, Birdman and Jonny Quest. Toth’s artwork appeared in comics published by DC Comics, Marvel, Standard, Dell, Warren, Famous Funnies and numerous others. You can find out more about Toth at http://www.tothfans.com/.

List up to ten (10) things you want to say to ten (10) different people. Do not state who these people are. Do not confirm or deny any ‘comment speculation’:

1. Why did you turn out to be a bitch-ass negro? I thought you were cool, now I understand why you don’t have any friends.

2. I’m mad that my friends can’t remember your name but remember how ya ass looked in those jeans.

3. Dude, it’s just not going to happen. So stop calling me, stop thinking about me, you can’t have my dick.

4. Sometimes when you speak, you can say some of the most ignorant and retarded things that I just want to punch you in your fucking throat.

5. There’s been some great developments in the science of mouthwash and soap, I suggest you do some research into them.

6. I want to lick every inch of you, from the tattoos to those big ass arms to that ass.

7. If you really knew who I was, you would hate me.

8. You ain’t shit, you were never shit and you’re never going to be shit.

9. I pray to Satan that your baby is born with hooves and your square-ass man jaw.

10. I’m sorry I fucked ya man, if its any consequence he was a lame-lay.

Don’tcha just love websites that have whole bunch of different things that have absolutely no purpose what so ever? If you do, then you’re at the right blog. I just added a side bar to the individual entry pages, threw in Related Post plugin and moved my Social Bookmarking. Does it make Phillybred.com any better? Nah, but it certianly made the time between 530am and 3pm move really fast. Now I’m afraid to even look at this thing in IE.

I’ll be so fucking glad when I get away from these people because they’re driving me to drink. So the girl who lives in the apartment below me, Statistic, is pregnant and there’s a good chance that I’ve probably heard the little bastard being conceived. Correction, I know I have, but I digress. So now that Statistic is with Seeds & Stems child, my landlord is letting her get away with a bunch of bullshit thats completely irritating me. My landlord has been making this big-ass fuss about non-tenants parking in the lot since its only holds about 4-5 cars and there are 7 apartments. He even got ballsy and put up a sign.

I’ve never had to worry about parking since I’m usually the first tenant in during the evening and first out in the morning, So I don’t have to compete for a spot. But for the other tenants its a different story especially when Statistic has her child’s Future Dead-Beat over. 30 more days and I’m out like a burnt light bulb.

Just wanted to say that I’m back from South Carolina.

• It was gorgeous down in East Bumblefuck, it was in the high 80s all weekend.
• The 14 hour car trip was not that bad even though I got tired from driving before I left Chicago.
• For everyone (or actually that only one) who tired to call me, I’m sorry I didn’t get back to you, I couldn’t get a cell phone signal.
• It was so good to see my frat brothers, sorors and bruhs, now I can’t wait til Conclave to see them all again.
• And I fell in love with the 5th Gen. Toyota Camry. I may have to get rid of my POS and trade up.

You’re going to have to excuse my absence, but I’ve been uber busy with this house for the last week. I’ve been doing so much work in that place, that I really don’t want to be bother with it anymore, but it will all pay off at some point… soon hopefully. I did take some shots before I got to painting, they’re up on Flickr.

Another reason why I haven’t been around this week is that I’m taking a road trip on Thursday down to East Bumblefuck Columbia, South Carolina. The Kappa Psi Kappa Spring Retreat is this weekend and to be honest, I really need to get away from Chicago, its fickle-ass weather and the job for a few days. Hopefully after ten hours in a sedan with three of my frat brothers will do me some good(if I don’t have to kill them and dispose of their bodies in the backwoods of Tennessee). Be back next Tuesday.

Who Wants To Be A Superhero, the new reality series involving Stan Lee, will premiere on Sci Fi on July 26. Sci Fi is teaming with Lee and Bruce Nash’s Nash Entertainment for the six-episode, one-hour weekly competition reality series that will challenge constestants to create their own superhero.

The winner of the six-week competition will depicted in a new comic book created by Lee. Here’s how Sci Fi describes the show:In nationwide open casting calls, potential heroes will arrive in costume to prove their mettle — revealing the true nature of their superhuman abilities and invoking the noble credos by which they live. From these thousands of hopefuls, Stan Lee will choose 11 finalists to move into a secret lair and compete for the opportunity to become a real-life Superhero!Finalists will leave their former lives behind and live as their brainchild heroes 24/7, all under Stan Lee’s watchful eye. Each week, our aspiring heroes will be challenged with competitions designed to test their true superhero abilities. It’s not all just leaping tall buildings in a single bound, a true Superhero will be tested for courage, integrity, self-sacrifice, compassion and resourcefulness. In the end, only one aspiring Superhero will have the strength and nobility to open the gates to comic book immortality.

In all honesty, I don’t think that another reality show needs to be created, especially if the end result is going to be a crappy-ass title that NO ONE will ever read. But I guess I’ll TiVo it just to see the lames in Cosplay.

I’ve come across some really interesting sites on Blogger over the last few weeks. One blog, X-Men - The Uncanny X-Periment, in particular provides an ongoing look the story arcs of the Uncanny X-Men. The blog author, who goes by ‘TheW40,’ not only summarizes X-titles but gives a freesh insight to them as well. So if you’re a Marvel Zombie like me, or just looking to read up on the X-Men before the Ratner-helmed bomb comes out, you should go check out this site.
