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.

R.I.P. Coach Wooden


I hate that I only seem to make it back to my blog for R.I.P. posts and hood fights - but it is what it is. Yesterday, the game that I love lost a legend. Coach John Wooden passed away at the age of 99. Though it was inevitable, you always hoped Coach would defy the odds. Such a selfless human being with an insurmountable amount of knowledge, the world will truly miss his presence and general greatness. I know his loved ones do not feel that he lived anything less than a stellar life. Hopefully I can be as influential to my own children as he was to each kid he ever invested time into. May he rest in peace.

R.I.P.
