PICKUP: Air Jordan Retro 9 - "Charcoal"

It's been a minute since I updated this blog any. Genuinely busy these days, but that's a good thing. Good because being busy for me generates more cash. More cash results in posts like this. I scooped the "Charcoal" Air Jordan Retro 9 last month. My favorite pair from the original Air Jordan IX line. This retro is a great looking shoe. I believe fans of the original will be pleased with what they see. I've heard that some people have found the midsole to be cheaply painted on previous Retro 9 releases, so I'll have to see how that works out after wearing. Paint chipping or not, panties will be dropped in the very near future.

PICKUP: Air Jordan Retro 6 - "Infrared Pack"


One of my rare recent Jordan pickups, the Air Jordan Infrared 6 Pack. The Black/Infrared 6 was the first Jordan I had when I was a kid, and it remains one of my all-time favorites. I'm pretty satisfied with this purchase, depsite the fact that they are NOT done in an infrared shade. What's even worse is that the treys and bag logos feature the actual infrared color. Otherwise, these are pretty dope. And those dropping panties don't know the difference.

PICKUP: adidas TS Commander Dwight Howard PE


Here we have a Dwight Howard player exclusive of the adidas TS Commander. Essentially looks like the general release version, but with some added personalization. Obviously the Superman logos on the back are the biggest difference. Perhaps not as noticeable is a biblical reference written beneath each logo. There's also an improvement in the materials used. Speaking of materials - ladies need to drop them panties when they see that I have these bad boys. Now I just need to figure out how to fit a size 18 shoe.

I used to use extra socks when I was a kid. To fit bigger shoes, not enhance my package.

PICKUP: Nike Trainer 1 "Vintage Nike Box"


Lately, I've found myself more into trainers that I've ever been. I hate the way I look in runners (wide, flat feet), and I'm not always in the mood to wear basketball shoes. Trainers offer the perfect solution. This particular pair was a must-scoop for me, because of the vintage Nike box theme. I'm rarely ever one for a loud sneaker design, but this was obtained for sentimental reasons more than anything. Plus, they get them panties dropping, so I'm not complaining.

I think I've recaptured my old level of passion for sneakers ever since I started writing for SC.

SpaghettiOs Pulled From Shelves!

WASHINGTON – Two popular grocery items are being pulled off the shelves — SpaghettiOs that weren't adequately heated during processing, and Marie Callender's frozen dinners that pose a salmonella risk.

The Department of Agriculture announced both recalls late Thursday. Conagra foods is recalling all Marie Callender's brand cheesy chicken and rice frozen meals after they were possibly linked to an outbreak of 30 salmonella illnesses in 15 states.

And Campbell Soup Co. is recalling 15 million pounds of SpaghettiOs with meatballs after a cooker malfunctioned at one of the company's plants in Texas.

ConAgra said it was recalling the Marie Callender's meals after the company was informed by the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention of at least eight people who had fallen ill with salmonella poisoning after eating the dinners.


Ain't that some bullshit! You know the end is near when a kid can't even enjoy a kid of SpaghettiOs anymore. And how do you manage to fuck up SpaghettiOs? Unruly motherfuckers.
