A PICTURE IS WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS PT.1 according to YaYa (click pic for close up)

Happy Birthday Uncle Yahya!!!!!!!!!!! 12/28th

This is a picture of my late Uncle Yahya, he passed away at the age of 21 and today would've been his birthday...Obviously I was named after him...and....I never thought that I looked like anyone until I seen this picture and was like WOW.....I actually have a picture with me sitting in this same pose but i couldn't find it... Uncle Yahya passed before I was born, but I hear stories from my mom and Uncle, and i hear that he was very into music, My mom told me that he was a singer that sang in a group in Detroit. The crazy story is that, he was asked to sign a record deal by Motown records as a solo artist, but he didn't want to leave the group hanging, so he declined on the deal unless they were incorporated, THATS CRAZY....well, I know music runs in the family... I guess we are the same in the fact that we love music, and that we're out spoken, outgoing people (so i heard.) well... Even though I never got to meet you, I'm sure I would've loved you....So Happy Birthday Uncle Yahya Love you....from Mom.........

YaYa's movie of the Moment: The Great Debaters

This movie was great. Very inspirational and all that chocolatey goodness that you need to see from time to time. The entire cast was perfect together and D.Washington did another great job directing as well as acting. One of my favorite movies is Antwone Fisher which was also directed by Denzel Washington, so it was good to get another great film from him and all the other actors, I suggest you all go out and see the movie, don't wait a week for the bootlegs please, go Support it...It's worth it.... Peace Yah^2

"My Childhood was Animated" Part One: Lupin the Third

" yes yessss, Guess who's on third..." I've

just recently started buying the Lupin the third series, written by (Munkey Punch) I'm really into it... For those that know me, knows i'm a huge dragonball fan, but i'm starting to explore other mangas. It's been out for years, so if you're a anime fan, this blog isn't for you... Lupin is an international theif who steals priceless jewels, outsmarts dectectives and has assassins and other world known theives out to kill him. Lupin is a womanizing, sneaky, silly, con-artist that thinks with his brains and his crouch... I would advise those trying to get into manga, to go check it out, I'm already on vol.2 so CATCH UP!!!! (GIVE ME SOME DAP!!!!)
