Yesterday my Yahoo! email account was like 95% full, then I peeped my email this morning like I usually do, and it was only at 1%! Bananas I thought. Is all my email deleted? But then, I saw that my storage quota bumped up to 2GB, doubling my beta gmail account. Some may think "hey, i only got 100MB!" But hear hear, I do pay $30 annually for POP server access and extra storage, so I just think this justifies it. You would think Hotmail would get on in and offer 3GB, but we all know Hotmail sucks.

From the desk of Jay Leno:

game 1: Wow, 19,000 fans were at staples last nite to watch the Lakers lose. Well, 19,002 if you count Karl Malone and Gary Payton.

game 3: Laker fans, Lakers lost again last nite. They only scored 68 pts. Detroit played great defense. In fact, after the game, Kobe asked the Pistons to come defend his trial in Colorado.

game 4: Not looking good for the Lakers. The Lakers were complaining about the Pistons. Yea, they said the Pistons were playing "As a Team". That can never happen in LA.

Former President Bush jumped out a plane over the weekend. Yea, he was that upset over the Lakers game.

Well, Jennifer Lopez offered the Lakers some support. She said if they don't win, she'll give each one of them a ring from her past marriages.

Hahahaha. But we won't be laughing anymore if Detroit finds a way to lose. Go PISTONS!

Some professors liked to be called "Dr. _____" or "Mr. ____" or simply their first name. How would you address this teacher?

Kanye/Ursher tickets went on sale this past weekend, and a small part of me wants to go to the concert. And according to VH1, guess who was voted hottest male body in pop music? No not Ruben Studdard, but it was Ursher. I think the list went something like this:

10. Kylie
9. Ashanti
8. Lachey
7. Britney
6. Justin
5. Crow
4. Ursher
3. Mrs. Anthony
2. Mrs. Shawn Carter
1. Mrs. Nick Lachey

Interesting, but Jessica doesn't really have a butt. Speaking of which, Newlyweds v.III starts tomorrow! Whoooo. I'ma catch it right after the Meth and Red sitcom, which looks mad stupid funny.

Lastly, happy belated birthday to Mary Kate and Ashley. Have fun in NYU this fall.

Hahahahaha......brb.

So yesterday I met up with a few heads to watch the pistons game. We went to Knuckle’s in b-game, saw Warrior’s play by play man Jim Barnett, and drank some beer. Knuckle’s probably has the worst happy hour ever. I mean, this is a sports bar after all. I should expect more than just 1 beer on the menu. Really, the special they had was a black butte porter. Wtf is a porter? I don’t want a steak-inspired beer. So we munched on $12 fat burgers instead. At least the peanuts and popcorn are free. We also had a wack waitertress (we thought he was gay), and didn’t want to tip him the standard 10%. But when we get the bill, gratuity is fixed @ 18%. Grrrrrr. After we leave him $93.50 for a $93.49 tab, Michelle thinks we overtipped him and proceeded to make change for that quarter.

What surprised reeg was the amount of laker fans in the bar. It seems like we were watching the game in Compton. Well, actually it was like a 60%/40% ratio rooting for the bad guys. But of course our table was pulling for the bad boys v. II. You’re never comfortable against the lake show in the postseason until the final buzzer sounds. Images of broomsticks clouded my mind during the final moments of the game, yet after diesel converted the triple play, I knew they had a chance. D-12 (thanks luna-tic for the nickname) had cranium gas (read: brain farts) on the last possessions. Every they should’ve done, they didn’t. Fluke Walton (thanks callwave for the nickname) had the game of his life. That’s the thing with this squad though…some scrub steps up. Watch rick fox-williams go for 20 in the next game.

When kb8 had the rock, visions of the last regular season game vs. the potland jailblazers came up. As did visions of his rookie year against the jazz. But when did reeg know he was gonna make it? Right when freakin abc put up the stat showing he’s the worst 3pt shooter in the nba playoffs or something. Damn. As lil flip would say, Game Over.

whats wandering upstairs:

- yall know the clothing line BC Ethic? well i never knew that BC stood for anything. for those wondering, it means Blue Collar.
- speaking of initials, why is GQ, or Gentlemen's Quarterly, a monthly magazine?
- lindsey lohan, your 2K4 mtv movie award host, is a bit overrated. nice rack though. but for some very strange reason i wanna watch mean girls.
- you know how everyone has that 1 retarded coworker? well, I have 2.
- go pistons go pistons go pistons go pistons go pistons go pistons go pistons go pistons
- i went to the gym yesterday, and after i went, i felt more energized. i came home and did the dishes, a load of laundry, cleaned up and other crap i had to do. its like i either do hella things or i do nothing.
- man, freaking yahoo launch took away my underground hip-hop station...now i'm stuck w/ the mainstream crap
- man, freaking subterranean shoe room closed down. word on the street is that shoe biz bought them up though
- link of the day: why you should respect your folks

happy monday afternoon...

it was a decent weekend, i freakin saw an SB head or two every day. saw Marvin and Will on their bikes outside a mall in san bruno. Man, every filipino guy in DC has a motorcycle...no joke. Except me, since I can't even drive stick.

on saturday we kicked it w/ e-fresh and missled for an early birthday bash. I probably can't make it to LA, so he came up and celebrated kinda. he's been talking about it for awhile, and it may come to fruition now. please note: if you ever get contacts, try not to wear them for the 1st time on a night where you plan on being sloshed, or else you'll end up having a friend put them back in your eye for you.

on the sabbath i ran into miss trish at church of course. she was late. well, i was too sorta, but at least i stayed until the final blessing. i also went shopping down in valley fair, but didn't buy anything, so does that still count? rushed home to catch the final .25 of the pistons game...whooooo go D-town!

in US weekly news...
- trace ayala is bout to wed the girl next door. so much for my theory of elisha tryna pry away justin
- nick and paris split up...i'm sure i called it when i first reported it. note to self: check archives on the over/uner
- and lastly but not leastly...drumroll pretty please....must breathe...okay...i'm shaking as i type this. jessica alba is prepping for her next movie roll...as a stripper. big gulp. read that again: JA is about to play a stripper in an upcoming flick w/ bruce willis. talk about a horrible premise! sike

man, i must hit the gizzym today. have a good one-two

After an extended weekend, back to the grind. This week shouldn't be so bad, since hugo is out. The weather is real nice outside, my steering wheel was mad warm. We do have a parking garage, but i'm not gonna fork over a c-note a month for those privileges. Thanks to those that came out on Friday to the V-may B-day bizzash. Hope you ate well and drank much. Thanks to Snup for being photographer:

V-may's deuce-5

Thanks J for yacking (someone had to)...thanks taft and MSB for keepin reeg sane while V-may was insane in the car ride...thanks xtine for the cab ride...and thanks to everyone else showing up. Food was good huh?

Saturday did a lil shopping up in V-ville, came home w/ a ringer shirt and a pair of kicks. Could've bought more, but reeg restrained himself. Tried to earn my skrilla back, but finished in 3rd place in yet another game of poker. Just missed out of the moolah. Happy belated to Moms, whose b-day was this past Sunday. Went to the g-yard to visit the grand-parentals, had thai food and grocery shopped @ trader joe's. Beer alert: SAN MIGUEL LIGHT is sold at TJ's for $5 for a 6pac! Suffice to say, reeg was excited when he saw the SML after rumors circulated that it was sold there. Monday came and I slept in til 1pm and headed down to Burlingame Ave to go window shopping. A shoe boutique is planning to open 2morrow, and they had an exhibition this weekend. So if you're ever in that hood, i suggest to visit - its 1112 Burlingame ave. What sucks is that I used to work literally a mile away from that spot, now its a 15 minute commute. Maybe i'll sneak there during my lunch hour tomorrow. I then did some more grocery shopping, watched the game, and concluded my day. Hope your wknd was as relaxing as mine.

This is officially the last time I'ma write about AI, so bear w/ me. Congrats to Fantasia, she deserved it. random thoughts:
- what the heazy was jen love hewitt doing there?
- jazz's performance was weak
- ruben actually gained weight if that's possible, and he sweats more than russell athletic (hope yall got that)
- simon had hella black shirts, but damn, button it up!
- i drink diet coke solely because of kate beckinsdale
- randy and simon should've consulted each other since both rocked pinstripes
- i can't wait til someone tries to outdo willy hung
- i remember camile looking better than that

The grab bag:
- i wish death to the following words: holla, cute, and anything -izzle. for historical reference, please listen to another bad creation's "playground," which started the -izz craze (into the mizzark chillin in the pizzark/i got a break cuz my mother said be home by dizzark)
- Conversely, I propose to bring back the following: fresh, def and moded
- i like Jack Johnson (UCSB alum correct? it figures)
- i haven't played my xbox in a long time. but i've only had it for a short time.
- go t'wolves!
- i heard that Jesus was born in 4 BC. how is this possible?! doesn't BC stand for "before Christ"? that is so confusing.
- dang we haven't had a holiday since new year's
- "playaz holiday" is a jam (gotta love the bill wither's sample)
- lastly, i'm pretty tired of this layout! note to self: change it

What's good yo. I'm pretty hungry, since I forgot to eat dinner yesterday. Not sure why, but I didn't get hungry while watching the laker/minny game and the giants game. Then it was like 11 and I realized, hey - I didn't eat yet!? You may say "what about AI? Did you not watch?" Well I recorded it and watched it w/ V-may. And if Fantasia doesn't win, that would be more surprising than Conan lasting longer than Dobson, more surprising than Jazz lasting longer than Latoya, and more surprising than Willy Hung getting a recording contract! I didn't even know that they sang the same song, as Fantasia's rendition was much more vibrant and resounding, conjuring up memories of Ruben's Flying w/o Wings performance from last year. Simon even gave the ultimate compliment, calling her the best performer out of all the Idol competitions. Better than Kelly, better than Ruben, better than Ezra. But watch Diana win, which would be atrocious. Until then - Tacorda...out!

Man I still got a snotty nose and mild cough, but that shouldn't deter me from blogging ya heard. I heard that Mrs. Snoop Dogg is filing for divorce. I don't know about yall, but I almost was waiting for this to happen. Mr. Broadus consistently brags about his stable of "hoes," and while it may have been a front, anybody who've seen his Girls Gone Wild video would believe otherwise. Disclaimer: I have never watched it, but only saw the ads for it.

Man I really need to update the layout of this page. Them shoes are old, I'm listening to new music, I wanna change the pictures, and need to add to my album. However I'm still reading the same book -- yes call me molasses, I'm slow. Shoot I forget what's going on in it too.

I always try to beat my boss to work, and never succeed. Until today that is. I've read somewhere (Men's Health?) that you should attempt to beat your boss to work @ least once a week. And he's gonna go to Costa Rica next week, so I can take my time and chill. Whew. Regardless, he's a pretty lax guy (no he doesn't play lacrosse nor flies into los angeles), so its no biggie.

I discovered that Saved by the Bell is shown @ 7am on the People's Station. This honestly gives me incentive to wake up. Today's episode was when Slater's chameleon Artie passed. One of the sadder episodes of SBTB. Now I need to find a show @ 12am and 1230am.

Memorial Day is next week, and I realized that we haven't had a company holiday since New Years. Dang that's a long time. Anything crackin' this upcoming weekend? Seems like a lot of folks are flying out of town.

Reeg's gonna switch from AT&T to Cingular. Reception sucks at my crib, and it seems to be on Cingular's network there. But if I fully switch, will my reception improve? Whatever the case, 7pm nights are really appealing, so the extra $15 a month should be worth it.

If a fruit best describes yesterday's tv schedule, it would be bananas. Not 1, not 2, not 3, but 2.5 heartbreaks for reeg. Yes, I grow attached to characters on the small screen, and I'm sure some of you do to.

Shed a tear for Sac. Another year of agony for this team. That shot was halfway down. But KG won MVP for a reason. Did I ever tell you about the time I met him? It was like in '96, and he was signing autographs at a card show. Here was this teenager full or energy, interacting with his fans like they were his family. But I never expected him to become the playa he is today.

So every Bachelor/rette finale showed the loser going first. Knowing this, i got excited when Jessica first drove up. Jesse was even talking to her like he was about to break her heart. So what does he do? He picks her! While this is happening, Tara is literally yacking somewhere. Boy does she have some intuition though! "But..." she says. I guess she was real upset that Jesse did/said/did "inappropriate" things to her. She looked good at least, while her dress's slit was more like a split. While Jessica looked like something died in her hair.

Yes it was time for Jaz to go. I think a lot of the heat/criticism she's receiving is a lil unfair. But if you're up in a public domain, anything goes. She handled it like a trouper. I don't know - i really don't wanna see Diana be the American Idol. She damn annoying. And you know how people look better as the season progresses? She seemed to be the opposite. At least Snellville sounds like Smallville.

(yet another smooth segue reeg) Alas, its the season finale. While it was pure pandemonian while watching the S1 finale, then questioninig the S2 finale, this finale had all the elements - it should be called the periodic table! (funny or no?) More questions came up and even less answers were given. Where's Clark? Did Lana hop the plane? Is Chloe alive? Will Pete come back? Is Lex gonna recover? Why did Lionel shave his dome? Will Jonathan wake up? Did Martha understand the symbol? What's Reeg gonna do from now until S4? Well at least Lana was had her wavy hair look yesterday =).

Alas, I purchased S2 on DVD last night, which actually has outtakes and bloopers and such.

I read US Weekly yesterday, and 2 things literally shocked me. And no, this doesn't involved teenage girls, so keep reading.

1. Ali Landry (the real reason why guys love Doritos) and Albert Clifford Slater are in midst of an annulment after being married for only 2 weeks! They've been dating for 6 years, but AC has been accused of infidelity. Dude, he HAS (or had) a top tenner, possibly top fiver. Zach wouldn't have done that.

2. Heidi Klum is a pretty purty girl, but not really my type. She is fly, and is the #1 stunner on many guys lists. US reports that she dating none other than....SEAL. Yes, that Seal. I'm not one to talk ish, but an actual seal looks more attractive than Seal. This makes the Janet-Jermaine Dupri relationship look like Brad and Jenn.

Okay I think that's it. COuld you tell I'm not busy today?

This is gonna be a late Thursday blog, but considering its Friday, I guess that nullifies it. So much on my palate…and I missed talking about the fantasy-reality world of telemundo, so let’s commence with that.

American Idol – I can honestly say that I’m not surprised by the outcome. While everyone including JT knows Latoya was the best singer there, that doesn’t necessarily equate into winning the show. This contest is moreso a popularity contest as it is a talent competition. Some people are calling it a travesty, a mockery, a travshamockery (yall saw that coming huh?), etc, but in the grand scheme of things Latoya is probably the only one to land a successful music career. Despite getting the Timberland (re: boot), she has AI to thank as her springboard. In other related news, Clay is firing 19 Entertainment and he wore some Dunks during his performance, which means reeg should stop buying them.

Bachelor – Watching that episode made me like Trish a bit. She has gusto to go for hers, and at least she said she didn’t try. I guarantee you though if the cameras weren’t on, Jesse would’ve accepted her proposal, since he knew he wouldn’t choose MJ anyways. Check the archives, I picked Tara from the get go, and I’m rooting for her.

NBA – Probably the greatest reality, unscripted stuff on TV. No editing, no fixing, just some live action. Still can’t get over that Kobe shot, then the Duncan shot, then the Fisher shot. I hope he wears his darn headband the next game.

Smallville – No I didn’t forget about you. Nearing the end of Season III (already?!?), we get potential scares. LL plans on moving to Paris (let’s hope she does Rachel and comes back). Pete plans on moving to Wichita (the burden of Clark’s secret is too great). Lionel is arrested. Lex remembers. Chloe unfortunately is still Chloe. I’m not as amped for the finale as I was at the end of Season I or II, but it does look intriguing. Oh yeah MSB, I guess last week’s episode was only okay, since I don’t even remember the premise of it!

*****
I haven’t been out on a Thursday night since Alex’s Cantina. Well not exactly that far back, but like staind, it seems to have been awhile. So I get an invite from Lady Ecstasy, whom I haven’t seen since my birthday. My 24th birthday. Of course I jump at the situation and proceed towards the Haight and go to Milk.

After driving around for about 30 minutes looking for parking, we decide to eat up the $10 spot and pay for a spot close by. I have such bad parking car-ma. Waiting in line with the hip hop heads wanting to watch DJ Numark of J5 made me antsy. And made me feel overdressed in a button-up and Wallabees.

So after a Ketel-uno and tonic and a LBIT and catching up with Miss Ecstasy, Numark comes on and drops a set. Okay its alright, but so not worth the $15 cover. Suddenly, Charlie 2na comes on and J5 turns into J2! The crowd gets hyped. Okay now it was kinda worth it. I’m content and am getting ready to bounce, since its nearing 1am and it’s a school nite.

But guess who blesses the stage next? Its none other than J-LIVE! I almost climaxed, since he’s been my fav rapper over the last few years. See, even peep the “IN MY WHIP” section on the left. Maybe 90% of the people there probably never heard of him, but I’ve been checking for him ever since he dropped the anthem Braggin’ Writes in 95. This song is in my Top Dime of all time (but too bad I have about 50 songs on my top 10 list). Put it this way – that song was the first mp3 I’ve ever downloaded. I had no idea he was in town, let alone going to perform. And I’ve read about his shows, but yet have never witnessed it myself. Until yesterday that is.

Today we’re going to the Giants game, and if there’s enough gas in the tank, karaoke afterwards! But V-may doesn’t like me singing in public for some strange reason. =/

Happy Hump Day. I wasn't mad or anything yesterday, just had to express a few things. It's not good to let it all build inside you, hence the vent post. I even forgot a few things, but i figured a top dime list will do.

- Popup windows are funny. Sometimes its cool if a hot girl pops up. Then you go whoa. But that lasts for only so long. But what bugs is those popup download windows. Like when it says "always trust content from IWILLJACKUPYOURCOMP Corp." How come it never says "NEVER trust content"?

- Tagalog word of the day: mahal. To love. So my whole Filipino life I've just known this word as love, as in mahal kita! But this weekend I also learned that it also means expensive. Now this totally makes sense. Love is expensive. Expensive is love. I'm glad I recall my reflective property.

- Poor Miss Trias. The judges made her cry. I'm not saying she was the worst one yesteday, so I'll just say she was fourth best.

- Why did I talk about the Bachelor on the phone to my HOMEBOY on a Saturday night? To protect their identity, he shall be remain nameless unless I want to call him out later. Today's episode should be really intrishting. HA!

- underrated: Kate Beckingsdale. And I wasn't even digging her in Serendipity, nor have I seen Van Helsing. She has talent!

- on the radar: Lindsay Lohan. Just ask the RZA. Yesterday I was watching Conan and he was saying "starring in Mean Girls and SNL" and I was like its gonna be her. But it was some other actress. Lohan > Mary Kate, Lohan > Ashley. However, MK + A > Lohan. (I shall not use LL for her, since those initials are revered).

- Anyone remember when the Black Eyed Peas were pseudo-underground? Just add abs of steel to the group and poof! they're mainstream artists. Appearances on Leno (w/ the Friends cast), Letterman (w/ the AI judges), opening up for Xtina and JT, singing the theme of the NBA playoffs...the list goes on for this melting pop group. They get no support though from UG heads. Where is the love?

- Speaking of which, Fergie made People's 50 Most Beautiful list. Let's just say she looks better with hats on.
