The Mayonnaise Jar

The Mayonnaise Jar

When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar... and the coffee...
A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, wordlessly, he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.

So the professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.

The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous "yes."

The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed.

"Now," said the professor, as the laughter subsided, " I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The golf balls are the important things-your God, family, your children, your health, your friends, and your favorite passions-things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full. The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house, and your car. The sand is everything else-the small stuff."

"If you put the sand into the jar first," he continued, "there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have room for the things that are important to you. Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness. Play with your children. Take time to get medical checkups. Take your partner out to dinner. Play another 18. There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal. Take care of the golf balls first, the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand."

One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee represented.

The professor smiled. "I'm glad you asked. It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend."

The last couple of months I was wondering where he dipped off to, but from the video it looks like Cali. Sheeesh. I mean after ol girl slap the shit out of him, he had to get away for a little while clear his head and shit. But the video does have a nice concept and the verse he layed down was decent so lets go Charles 2010?

Mr.Cartoon X. Gshock

As part of the ‘Youth Culture’ G-shock mini-series, here are some exclusive photos of the release event for Mr. Cartoon’s effort. As you can see the designer/artist/illustrator, Cartoon himself was on hand to showcase the DW-6900 watch. With sharp detail, the watch is complete with classic Mr.Cartoon artwork in a silver/navy blue colourway. The watch is now available America-wide as well as online from G-shock.

Popular Demand

The Clipse continue to serve the streets as they eventually drop the Rik Cordero-directed visual to their (new) new single “Popeyes” featuring Harlemite Cam’Ron. That makes four singles coupled with four videos plus a remix or two before the release of their highly anticipated new album “Til The Casket Drops” on December 8. It’s obvious Malice and Pusha T keep on Grindin’.

Gucci Mane V Young Jeezy V My Own Worst Enemy

Gucci Mane “My Own Worst Enemy” (CDQ) (Produced by Drumma Boy)

It’s been a hotly debated topic in the comments section every time we’ve had a Gucci Mane-related post, drawing lines in the sand between fans claiming regional prefs, or fans fighting about the merits of high-brow vs low-brow raps, or even the Team Jeezy fans vs. the Team Gucci splits. But one thing that keeps coming up again and again is the recognition of this widespread Gucci-Mania that has gone from “the Trap,” to pop radio to indie hipster to music-tv takeover, and more.

Well I got to see what the mania was all about when I was down in Atlanta….Gucci hasvery limited free time, but in between shooting multiple videos, eating lunch at the scripclub (lol), dropping 3 mixtapes at once, and holding court with his rabid fans, Gucci took me to the very housing complex where he grew up and admittedly screwed up in Zone 6/East Atlanta….to chat about many things (his history with T.I., being blacklisted in ATL, his childhood,etc). But in this clip, we talked about the song that surprised me the most.

Photographer Erin Olaf

I bet you know where I got this from. Kanye...

I mean sheesh, so you I had to grab it, the photography is cool. I mean pass the fact that it has naked women. The bag over the heads and than compostion within each shot. The color is crazzy. I actually looked into more of his stuff so you can tell I was a little more than intrigued. Olaf even has work in NY Times Coulture, so his work is respected.

Olaf where is polo.!!

Lebron!

So you know I am a Lakers fan. And a Kobe fan since he was playing with 8 and a afro, still wearing Krazy 8's. But Lebron changing his number; wait imagine Lebron changing his number 6 playing for the Knicks. Sheesh. I might have to cop a jersey just cause it Lebron 6, and the Knicks. Thats going to be insane.

How about Lebron saying no one in the league should wear 23. I orginally thought he bugging than I said no one will be wearing 23. Again, the way they be dick riding.

Everyone talking about Lebron in NY, how about Bron in Miami. Sheesh just imagine. I mean I dont know what to say about the Knicks but I will be watching Miami VERY CLOSE NEXT YEAR.

I just think what Michael Jordan has done for the game has to be recognized in some way – soon. There would be no LeBron James, no Kobe Bryant, no Dwyane Wade, you name all the best players in the league right now and the last 10 years, there would be none of us without Michael Jordan.

For those in the know, this isn’t a huge shock. LeBron has been spotted warming up for Cavs games wearing number 6 (one night even slipping it on by accident while sitting the bench), wore that number on his way to Olympic gold, and oh yeah, he’s been saying it since at least February 2009: “If the NBA retired 23 because of Michael like baseball did with Jackie Robinson [42], I would definitely switch it. Maybe I would someday, we’ll see.”

Stussy Feature: Basil Wolverton

Stussy recently sat down with the son of famed illustrator Basil Wolverton for a chat regarding his father’s legendary art while producing a feature highlighting its new line of t-shirts showcasing Wolverton’s timeless style. A release for the tees can be expected tomorrow, November 14th while an introduction into the feature can be seen below.

November 10, 2009

If I haven’t told you already today. Fuck You.
And I say that from the most honest place in my body, my heart. And that fuck you is not directed to anyone special, and doesn’t matter if you knew me your whole life or just meet me the other day.

I am in the same city of 6th sense makes sense (no pun intended) why I am walking around like you all ghost. Growth of the years has shown me not to be scared, when they get to close they think they can hurt; I tried to build a wall but I failed and it was knocked down. So now I am just sitting pretty behind my fence hoping that I don’t have any intruders within the next couple days. I came to Philadelphia for my mother and I want to make that clear if it was my choice some of you would of never met me. But regardless you did, it’s been a long stint without a note only because my mind has been too dark; but this morning an angel gave me a flashlight. Now I am looking through every aspect of my life like its spring-cleaning, all this shit can go.
15 minutes away is way too close; so as I look for someone to further my education I am smoking an L. Spazzing on whoever thinking they can take it; so listen when I say back up please give me some space. I am on the 8th level and your on the 3rd, how the fuck is your advice going to help me. I am going sit back and let you find someone who really knows me; so they can tell you the same but you wont ever find that person.

Tired of you girls hitting my phone; for sex. Just chill out, take a step back and look at our relationship if you hit me more than I hit you I think you already know whats up. I don’t want you to say I woke up on the wrong side of the bed, the word is cold hearted; and I am just reflecting what I seen all my life.
You wanted a relationship and I gave it to you. Foolish me; I forgot who I have always been. So now I am thinking to myself this wont last more than a week, I can tell just by the way you went about today. I am not taking it personal and neither should you. Just know this is the mildest that it gets; I haven’t yet acted out. I took a walk home crossed my fingers I wouldn’t see anyone’s ugly face because I didn’t want to give anyone a hug, a handshake, or hello. None of you deserve my presences at all. I really hate people; and I am trying to figure out why I dislike all of you so much. Wait I got it; everyone has their hand out but no one is picking me up when I am down (excluding a few individuals).

I made my point.

Looking at a bowl of Ice Cream, I am pretty sure I asked for guilt on top. I just want to say sorry to everyone for November 10, 2009.

Redman V Gshock

An integral part of Hip-Hop over the years, Redman’s re-emergence in recent times comes courtesy of this collaborative effort with CASIO G-SHOCK. Revolving around a less common model for joint projects, the AW-591RED-4AJR would as you imagine come in predominately red colorway with hits of black along the dial. The watch is a combination analog/digital format with all the usual workings of a CASIO G-SHOCK. A designer tin is included with each watch as well. Look for the watch at select retailers this month.

Nike V. Marcus Jordan. V. Addias

The legendary NBA star, Michael Jordan’s son, Marcus Jordan, had announced that he will only be wearing his father’s Air Jordan’s instead of the sponsored adidas kicks. As Marcus Jordan’s school, University of Central Florida, is in its final year of the five-year contract with adidas, this issue becomes a sensitive topic in terms of contract renewal, which was previously estimated to be a three-million dollar deal. As a result of Marcus’ Jordan’s refusal to sport the full adidas sponsored gear which was stated necessary in the sponsorship contract, adidas decided to drop future sponsorship with UCF. According to an email from adidas spokesperson, Andrea Corso, to the Associated Press, “The University of Central Florida has chosen not to deliver on their contractual commitment to adidas…As a result we have chosen not to continue our relationship with them moving forward”. Regardless of family loyalty and justifications on both sides, the result is that all sports teams from UCF are affected by this controversy.

Shouts out to The Yankees

Last night in Philadelphia a lot of people were sick; thinking that the Phillies really had a chance to repeat against the now 27 all time World Champions. It was a good series; shouts out to me because I called Yankees in 6. The pin stripes did not let down; Matsui won MVP which he deserved with 6 RBI's question is will he be back in April... I dont know but lets just enjoy this won while its still in front of us. Congrats to the World Champs

"Space Jam" Preview

"When the Black Friday Air Jordan XI Space Jam release date was announced for Asia, many people assumed that the U.S. drop would coincide, but now some new information has surfaced that will be sure to dampen the days of many who have been on the edge of their seat waiting for these for years. The good news is that you only have to wait an extra month, as the highly-coveted kicks will finally see their Retro release on December 23rd, just in time for some last-minute personal Christmas shopping. For some, the $175 retail price might be harder to swing so close to the holidays, but at least now you have an extra month put some Space Jam savings aside. "

Jay-Z answers Beanie

So, yeah, I know, this happened yesterday and it hit the web last night. In fact, the good guy Splash sent it over but I didn’t see it ’til this morning. Why? Because I’m in full Halloween crisis mode. Who knew how hard it was to find a little lycra-spandex in this damn city?

Anyways….Jay-Z addresses Beanie Sigel’s “What They Talkin’ Bout” gripe: “Beanie had a record deal, a record label, a clothing line, and never went platinum. I dont know, in the history of rap, anyone who’s done so much with so little. So I dont know what more you can do for a person at that point…if that’s not pushing a person, s–t!”

But my favorite part was from the interviewer: “Let’s stay in the complaining zone…”
LOL!

But as for the actual Beanie vs Jay-Z debate: it seems that these men are talking at each other but looking in different directions. Hov’s response is not quite about the things Beans mentions in the interview. Meanwhile Beans is griping at Hov without itemizing his own liability.

Lil Wayne's Birthday Recession

What with all the job-lossness and forclosuring and brokery happening in 2009, maybe rap’s superstars feel its declassé to throw over the top parties?

In the video above, Weezy celebrates with rhinestone-laced cake (and no, I don’t believe those are diamonds) and champagne in what looks like a dentist office. And after the jump, he tells DJ Drama that he also enjoyed a birthday outing to a Minnesota Vikings game (albeit via private jet). But they still seem to be having fun, and just because the  conspicuousness is absent, doesn’t mean the consumption is too.NewLilWayne sent over photos of Baby’s gift this year: a “million-dollar Chopard watch,”which came with a haphazard tattoo on Baby’s arm of Wayne’s birth date in semi-chinese-take-out font. (Overkill since the man already has a Weezy-face tat…but its the thought that counts.) .

Nas letter to Chicago's students after Derrion Albert

If you’ve read (with heavy heart) the recent news coverage from Chicago about a 16 yr. old boy named Derrion Albert, who was killed in broad daylight during a huge brawl right outside of Fenger High School in Roseland…and if you’re seen the disgusting infuriating video of a bunch of teens hitting each other with planks, punching, and kicking in the middle of the street…then you already feel the public outrage that wells up (however momentary) whenever something like this happens. Today, 3 young men were charged with the murder of Derrion Albert, but folks are still rattled. And rightly so. Nas posted this open letter on Global Grind in reaction to the violence 

Dear Young Warriors fighting the wrong wars! …

We chose the dumbest things to go the hardest for. I remember seeing deaths over 8 ball jackets, fila’s , and name plate chains. Deaths over “he say she say”!!!!! “I’m from This block or I’m from that block”, or “my moms n pops is f*cked up now the whole world gotta pay”!!!

I remember feeling like I was the hardest “n*gga” breathin. And I couldn’t wait to prove it. But let’s think. What r we really proving?? And proving what to who??….

We are WASTING more and more time. We gotta get on our jobs and take over the world. Cuz This movie left the theaters years ago, Juice, Menace, boys n the hood , blood n blood out, Belly!
