Falling asleep on the bus is common, but doing it with a fist full of gold on the 149 on your way to Guy's hospital to get the mobile phone dislodged from you stomach, now that's some Gangster shit!

The pound is stronger than the dollar.....holla!



The other day I was in Marks & Spencers and I bought a coffee. I paid with a five pound note and for my change I received a £2 coin, some pence and something I'd never seen before....a one pound note.

"A one pound note?" I questioned the cashier.

"Yes my friend." he replied.

"Is this real? Are you sure? Is this not like monopoly money or something?"

The cashier assured me it was real, even though I had never seen a £1 note before in my life.

I showed a few friends that evening, and a few said they had not been in existence since the seventies or something. The next day I google "one pound note," after a few clicks I found out that they stopped printing the £1 note in 1984. And then I read somewhere that they ceased to be legal tender in 1988. So wait, had the cashier gave me non-legal tender? Did he rip me off? I don't really mind, after all, it's just a pound - just in paper form. I think I'll hold on to it for awhile.

News Editor Shmeditor

Thankfully, none of this for a little while. The headaches have stopped. But it was a good experience nonetheless.

I've pledged to not open a word document till at least 2010.

They Reminisce

Pete Rock and CL Smooth were one of my favourite hip-hop duos from the early-mid nineties. They Reminisce Over You(T.R.O.Y) in my opinion is one of the most classic hip-hop tracks ever produced. I remember when I was in High school I used listen to WKNC, N.C. State's college radio station which had an underground hip-hop show on weeknights. I think I remember it running till 2am, so as that was quite late for a school night, I would go to sleep and record the program on cassette. I would wake up the next day with all these hip-hop gems and songs I had never heard before. It was quite thrilling when I would discover that I had happened to record a song I particularly favoured. One of which was Pete & CL's T.R.O.Y. Remix. I always tried to find this remix on the internet and on mixtapes to no avail. All I could find was the T.R.O.Y. vibes mix, which was similar, but it contained this really annoying xylophone sample. Now some fifteen years later (I lost that cassette ages ago) I've finally came upon the right song again. Well pretty much, I don't remember the chick singing in it, but perhaps the DJ cut it up and cut out her chorus. But anyways, this song has always stuck in my head and I am constantly reminded of it whenever I watch Jeff Pang's Skypager part.



In 1998, Pete Rock and C.L. Smooth put out an EP called Never Coming Out and that song is the last track. Download the EP here.
