Virgo Gumbo: July 2015
http://virgogumbo.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Grab a bowl cause I'm sharing goodness from my mind and the kitchen's always open. Wednesday, July 8, 2015. The Nas vs. Jay Z Mixtape (A Celebration Collaboration). During the spring, my buddy Matt Lane hit me up when I was doing a fantasy movie draft for Bro Jackson. We both love hip-hop as much as we love sports and we debated the idea of creating a similar draft for a mixtape featuring Nas (one of my faves) and Jay Z (one of his faves). Served By Evan Barnes.

Virgo Gumbo: Travyon Martin: Another Victim of "Fear of the Black Man" Syndrome
http://virgogumbo.blogspot.com/2012/03/travyon-martin-another-victim-of-fear.html
Grab a bowl cause I'm sharing goodness from my mind and the kitchen's always open. Monday, March 19, 2012. Travyon Martin: Another Victim of "Fear of the Black Man" Syndrome. Trayvon Martin was a 17-year-old boy walking home from a convenience store at night. He never made it home because he was shot by a neighborhood watch captain who thought he looked suspicious. How many more times do I have to read stories like this? Including this one about him calling police often about young, Black men. The charge...

Polivision?: Hot! Live! Music!
http://polivision.blogspot.com/2015/07/hot-live-music.html
Some excellent jests, fire-new from the mint. Monday, July 27, 2015. Elvis Presley, "If I Can Dream". Also known as my mother's favourite song of all time, rivaled only by the ukelele version of "Somewhere Over The Rainbow." It's weird, Elvis is such a massive icon and pop culture figure that it almost obscures the fact that this guy could REALLY sing. Tori Amos, "I Ran". Skip to the 1:37 point to avoid some inane concert patter and get to the good stuff. Flock Of Seagulls, baby! Here's a golden oldie fr...

Polivision?: May 2015
http://polivision.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Some excellent jests, fire-new from the mint. Friday, May 29, 2015. Rodney got off relatively scot-free, as CBS and Probst seemed eager to paint him as just a harmless, whiny goofball rather than a guy who said some pretty horrid things himself. In other seasons, Rodney would’ve been the villain, yet amazingly he only took the bronze medal in the wake of the Dan and Will Cavalcade Of Stupidity. Thanks to some pretty stupid gameplay by Joe, who was in even more desperate need of the HII yet he decided to ...

Polivision?: My "Survivor: Second Chance" Alterna-Ballot
http://polivision.blogspot.com/2015/05/my-survivor-second-chance-alterna-ballot.html
Some excellent jests, fire-new from the mint. Thursday, May 21, 2015. My "Survivor: Second Chance" Alterna-Ballot. Fifteen of my 20 choices. For the “Survivor: Second Chance” vote ended up making the cut for next season, so really, I shouldn’t be too upset at the results. Considering that two of my picks (Mikayla and Max) were only made due to apathy at the rest of the choices, I’m not even too upset that they were left out. Or, a dart, in his preferred parlance.). Come on, people! So really, it’s ...

Polivision?: Who Ya Gonna Call?
http://polivision.blogspot.com/2015/07/who-ya-gonna-call.html
Some excellent jests, fire-new from the mint. Sunday, July 12, 2015. Who Ya Gonna Call? I was already pretty optimistic about this Ghostbusters remake, and yet after seeing some of the pictures released from the set, I am now in a full-on fanboy mode that would rival eight-year-old me's enthusiasm for Ghostbusters II.

Polivision?: Rudd Reviews
http://polivision.blogspot.com/2015/08/rudd-reviews.html
Some excellent jests, fire-new from the mint. Wednesday, August 05, 2015. Why exactly was everyone certain that “Ant-Man”. Was going to suck? Allegiance to Edgar Wright? Maybe a secret yearning for a Marvel backlash since their movie universe has just become so all-encompassing? While I enjoy Wright as much as the next guy (Hot Fuzz and Scott Pilgrim, both former Markademy Award Best Picture nominees! Avengers sequel. I’ve never left a Marvel film feeling disappointed or even angry, which is mo...Really ...

Virgo Gumbo: Public Enemy "It Takes A Nation of Millions" - 25 Years as the Greatest Rap Album
http://virgogumbo.blogspot.com/2013/04/it-takes-nation-of-millions-25-years-as.html
Grab a bowl cause I'm sharing goodness from my mind and the kitchen's always open. Tuesday, April 16, 2013. Public Enemy "It Takes A Nation of Millions" - 25 Years as the Greatest Rap Album. 25 years ago Sunday, the greatest rap album of all time was released. Public Enemy's sophomore album changed hip hop forever and it's still a remarkable album every time I hear it. The last one simply because it flipped the Beastie Boys' biggest hits. 8212; Dart Adams (@Dart Adams) April 14, 2013. That album's produc...
