What's up everyone. Isn't it a great day today?! Actually---- I can't lie. I'm feeling quite angry about a bull shi*t ass article I just read. Which I'm sure many of you have already read. I'm not going to post that muther fuckin racist article up but let me just say it's an article on Yahoo regarding the gunman incident at Virginia Tech. There were a lot of things in that article that were unnecessary and only put in to provoke hatred amongst people. Also, there were a lot of emphasis on the ethnicity of this gunman. Had it been an anglo person, would they have said "Irish" or "German" man?! WTF?!! Anyway, I was really coming on here to invite you all to my next performance but I had to be real. Anyhow, here's the info. for my next show. Come if you can, I'd love to see you all.
