Ever Seen One of These??

Do you think this exists?

Can someone give me a good website to host pictures?  THOSE MSN FUCKERS ARE AT IT AGAIN.

Happy birthday to Tina, Shannon, Sophie and Margaret.
And congrats to Keith and Sass and their new baby girl.

Fashions...

The Moet & Chandon and Loewe fashion dinner.  If you look really hard, you can see the girl in the back with her see through clothing and a G-String.  She's not wearing a bra so you can also see her nipples.  (So I'm easily excited.  SO????!)

The dinner was an eye opener, in more ways that one.  I was the sound technician that evening.  I basically played music and set the mood for the evening.  So not a big role.  It was much more enjoyable watching the models go up and down the runway and onto the stage.  None of the models were less than 5 feet 10 inches.  And none wore bras.  Yes easily excited.  But that doesn't make me easy.  If you want easy, try MARV (or so kirb says).

My goal of coming to China has almost been attained.  Once I've met Zhang Ziyi (and more?) I'm coming home.  I can almost feel it.  This picture was taken by my friend Karim at the Elle 100th Issue party here in Shanghai.  ZZ was on the cover and my friend got to meet her at this party.  She's the one with the short hair second from the left.  Actually, several of my friends have met her at different functions throughout China.

On October 23rd, I'm going to a party for Vision Magazine, a big fashion mag here in China.  Gucci is giving away free sunglasses to all attendees, there's going to be free pour Absolut and free Versace gifts for everyone involved.  Hey TO, when will y'all come up?

I'm thinking of getting my own place in November.  Will keep you posted because right now I'm so damn po.  I really need a sugar mommy.  Would you toss her salad if she were your sugar mommy?

Eddie Murphy is hilarious.

Ballers

About two months ago, Nike did their whirlwind Relive the Funk basketball tour in China.  Here we've got the ghettoest of ghetto fab, straight out of Ruckers Park in NYC clockin mad benjamins.  These are the guys from straight out of the Nike commercial.  Shanghai was one of their stops and after two days of grassroots events (basically consisting of exhibition ball games full of ballers playing and doing some mad tricks right out of that Nike Rythm commercial), we took the ballers out to party.

Pegasus was our venue of choice, since it was Thursday and Pegasus Thursday's is the best place to get hip hop in Shanghai.  It was so easy to spot these 6 foot plus black guys amongst a crowd of mostly asians and whites.  The evening began well, but it soon got quite messy.  These guys wrapping up their two day stint in Shanghai were looking for some shorties to bang!

The only problem is, many Chinese girls aren't very attracted to black guys, in fact some are quite terrified of them.  Of the 7 or 8 ballers there, 3 were harsh trying to pick up chicks.  Dancin up by each of them one by one, I watched them switch strategy first from Chinese to American to Spanish and then back to Chinese... all with little success.

So end of the night, they were still emptyhanded.  I stood outside the club with my bosses, some friends and 8 black dudes and they were all trying to see what else they could do to pick up for the night.  Rub and tug?  Shady KTV?  We ended up going back to their hotel lobby and drinking for a bit as they decided whether or not to play their trump card.

So here we are, rolling in at about 4am in the morning at one of Shanghai's finest hotels.  Us and a crew of black dudes totally decked out in their baller clothes and some bling bling, welcomed by well suited Ritz Carleton staff.  We sprawl out onto their couches and they finally decide that the hookers must be called in.  About an hour and 3 beers later, we're up in some of their rooms waiting for the hookers to arrive (their only request was "big ass and titties" - I swear that's what they said).

I was chillin in a room with 2 of those ballers and some other friends and the 2 dudes picked up a ball they had from the ground and started to do some mad basketball tricks.  It was like I was a part of the friggin commercial, watching them pass the ball from the back of their elbows, spinning it on their fingers, tossing it with the insides of their feet... it was crazy.  The guy in the pic above (Mr. Handles) had a couple flyers for a club event he was going to go to after the Nike tour, it had pictures of him and a bunch of people in it, notably Jay-Z, Method Man, Chris Tucker and a bunch of other black superstars.  When the hookers arrived, we filed out one by one and let them do their thing, I'm sure the chicks got a nice 'surprise' when they got to the rooms of the hotel, it's not often that blacks roll into town looking for their services.  $100 US per was the cost, and it was conveniently waived as a Nike business expense.

Not all of the ballers partook in this act however, Mr. Handles was one that decided it was way too late to get his groove on and board the plane 3 hours later on a flight to Guangzhou.

Marv, I know you wish you worked for Nike so that you could turn your personal expense into a business one.
