YOUR MOVES AIN'T WORTH THE BIT....

THE ROXY...BEST BATTLE...THIS IS BREAKING...

IT'S A NEW DAY...

WITH ALL THAT IS GOING ON IN THE WORLD, SOMETIMES YOU HAVE TO STEP BACK. TAKE A DEEP BREATH AND LOOK AT WHAT IS GOING IN YOURS, EVERYDAY IS A STRUGGLE IN ONE FORM OR ANOTHER, FROM LOVE, LIFE, FAMILY BUSINESS, ETC...AS LONG AS YOU HAVE GOOD PEOPLE AROUND YOU GOOD THINGS WILL HAPPEN...TRUST...I'VE LEARNED A FEW THINGS ON MY PATH THROUGH LIFE, ONE BEING...DO WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPY, YOU ONLY GET ONE TIME ( THAT WE KNOW OF... ) TO DO WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPY, SOMETHING THAT DEFINES YOU AS A PERSON AND HOW PEOPLE VIEW YOU...NOW I'M NO ANGEL BY ANY MEANS!!! BUT I AM MAN ENOUGH TO ADMIT WHEN I'M WRONG OR WHEN I'VE WRONGED, AND THAT MY FRIEND IS SOMETHING I HAVE HAD TO FOCUS ON AS OF LATE...TO EACH HIS OWN I GUESS BUT...AT SOME POINT YOU HAVE TO STEP IT UP AND DO WHAT YOU GOTTA DO...NOT TO SOUND PREACHY BUT LIFE DOESN'T COME WITH INSTRUCTIONS AND SOMETIMES YOU HAVE TO FUCK UP TO REBUILD...I ACTUALLY LIKE THE PERSON I'VE BECOME IN THE PAST FEW YEARS, AND AS FAR AS CATS WHO STILL HATE, FUCK'EM, YOU NEED MORE IN THE POT IF YOU WANT TO SEE ME!!! NOW I'VE BEEN LUCKY TO HAVE A GIRL AND CREW THAT SUPPORTED ME GOOD AND BAD, AND I KNOW THAT MY FUTURE ENDEAVORS WILL BRING GOOD FORTUNE FOR ALL OF US!!! NOW ITS TAKEN ME QUITE A FEW YEARS TO REACH THIS POINT AND I'VE DEFINETLY FUCKED A FEW THINGS UP ALONG THE WAY, SO IF YOU WERE EVER ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE, I'M TRULY SORRY...THESE ARE MY THOUGHTS AND I WILL RANDOMLY JOT THEM DOWN ACCORDING TO MY DAY, AND TODAY I FELT LIKE TAKING A DEEP BREATH...BUT ANYWAYS, BACK TO THE POINT....FUCK STRESS!!! LET IT GO!!! TOMORROW WILL BE BETTER IF YOU REALLY WANT IT TO!!! DON'T KILL YOURSELF OVER SOMETHING YOU CAN'T CONTROL...LIFE IS IT'S OWN ENTITY AND YOU'RE JUST A COG IN THE ENGINE....NOW I KNOW IT'S EASIER TO GIVE ADVICE THAN IT IS TO TAKE YOUR OWN, BUT IF YOU KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS, THEN YOU SHOULD KNOW HOW TO SOLVE IT...LIKE I SAID BEFORE I AM A PEOPLE WATCHER AND I HAVE A KNACK FOR READING THEM, QUIRKS AND ALL THAT...SO I FIND IT EASIER TO FIGURE OUT WHEN THINGS ARE GOING SOUTH IN MY OWN WORLD...MY ONLY ADVICE IS THIS... DO YOU, FIND YOUR CENTER, BE IT MUSIC, ART, WHATEVER, THERE'S PEACE IN EVERYTHING AND ONLY YOU CAN FIND YOURS...STEP BACK, TAKE A DEEP BREATH, AND KNOW YOU HAVE A PLACE IN THIS WORLD, BALANCE IS KEY, FIND YOURS, AND THE REST WILL FALL INTO PLACE....PEACE YA'LL

PAC'MUTHAFUKIN'MAN FEVER!!!!

I WALKED INTO THE OFFICE TODAY AND BEFORE I COULD SIT DOWN, JAY WAS LIKE "YO BERT TAKE A LOOK AT THIS..."AND THERE IT WAS THERE, MANNY "PACMAN" PACQUIAO HOLDING THE T SHIRT I DESIGNED FOR HIS FIGHT AGAINST DE LA HOYA ON DEC 6TH...WHOA!!! THE POUND FOR POUND BEST FIGHTER IN THE WORLD AND COUNTRYMAN WITH MY TEE!!! NOW I'M NO BANDWAGONER, I GREW UP WATCHING BOXING WITH MY DAD AND UNCLE'S, FROM HAGLER-HEARNS, SUGAR RAY- HAGLER, RAY BOOM BOOM MANCINI, TO TYSON GETTING BEAT BY BUSTER DOUGLAS IN JAPAN, CHAVEZ-DE LA HOYA, ROY JONES KILLING VIRGIL HILL WITH A BODY SHOT, RACHMAN KNOCKING OUT LENNOX LEWIS, THEN LEWIS KNOCKING HIM OUT..TRINIDAD, ALL THE WAY UP TO MY MAN "PACMAN" WHO HAS BODIED THE COMP ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP!!! I AM VERY PROUD FROM A FANS PERSPECTIVE, BUT I AM REALLY PROUD AS A FILIPINO...BECAUSE GROWING UP IT WASN'T THAT "COOL" TO BE PROUD OF BEING FROM THE PHILIPPINES, AND THAT IS TRUE!!! BUT AS I GOT OLDER AND EMBRACED MY HERITAGE AND WHERE MY FAMILY WAS FROM, IT IS A GOOD FEELING TO SEE A FAMILIAR FACE WITH THE RESPECT AND ADMIRATION OF NOT ONLY HIS PEOPLE, BUT PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WORLD!!! AND COMING FROM NOTHING TO WHAT HE HAS ACHIEVED CAN ONLY BE LOOKED UPON AS AMAZING!!! SO TO HAVE HIM ROCKING SOMETHING I MADE IS AN HONOR, AND THE FACT THAT IT GOT TO HIM AND HE LIKED IT!!! IS SURREAL IN ITSELF... WOW!!! SO I'M EXPECTING A V!!!! AND I WILL BE IN VEGAS SLANGING THESE T'S GUERILLA STYLE!!!! BUT IF YOU WANT TO PICK ONE UP OR A HUNDRED, IF YOU'RE IN SAN DIEGO THEN HEAD DOWN TO 5&A DIME 701 8TH AVE SD, CA 92101 OR GO TO 5ANDADIME.COM TO ORDER THEM ON LINE...AND I'D REALLY LIKE TO THANK JAYDREAD FOR PUTTING IT OUT!!!
