The Roots - The Christmas Song (Late Night w/ Jimmy Fallon: 2010-12-21) If I had to choose only ONE aspect of the holidays that I absolutely must experience every year to make this festive time truly complete, it would have to be listening to Nat King Cole’s legendary rendition of the Mel Torme composed Christmas classic, simply and aptly titled The Christmas Song. Not the snow,...

It was the (very early) morning of Xmas...
…and all through my house (I was stirring things up): Choco-chip cookie dough (meticulously mixed) + bake at 350F for precisely 9 min 43 sec (give or take 7 millisec) + Milk Punch (ingredients: skim milk, Remy Martin VSOP cognac, Bacardi 151 rum, nutmeg, ice cube) + Skins: Volume 3 (fresh n’ newly copped DVD set) = Happy happy holidaze! Kind of like last year (but I got...

Urban Dictionary: Shatner commas →
Oddly placed commas that don’t seem to serve any actual purpose in punctuation, but make it look like you should take odd pauses, as William Shatner does when delivering lines. This is what Shatner commas look like: When, we get to, the restaurant, we should, order some, tasty, beverages.

Minty The Candy Cane - THE GAME! @ TeamCoco.com →
I listened to the jolly theme song 3 times (because it’s so darn catchy) before playing the addicting game. As seen on Conan. My current best time:

Silencio...
As of early this morning, along with the double-billed arrival of the winter solstice and a lunar eclipse (which I actually couldn’t see for myself due to the thick clouds in the cold winter sky last night…oh well) not to mention the holidays starting to heat up, I have made the conscious decision to take a Buddhist vow of silence (oh, cool…wait, what?). My goal is to keep...

“Yo, it all started at the after midnight Philly, but walk with me / mad niggaz...”
– Black Thought, absolutely destroying his guest verse on Ghostface’s In Tha Park (from the upcoming Apollo Kids LP). Props to Tony Starks for granting the Bad Lieutenant a rare guest spot (most MC’s don’t feature Black Thought on their albums for fear of being outshined or...

What Technology Do You Take to Bed? - lifehacker →
My VAIO (FW190), Android (Telus/Euro Hero), iPod (1st gen touch, on its last legs) and sometimes the PSP (God of War edition) if I feel like a night game or two. I also go to sleep with my in-ear headphones (Brookstone) on as the musical beats on the aforesaid touch (which is set to go to sleep in less than an hour) take me to dreamland, all while my BRAVIA (which is set to 30 minute sleep mode...

“Conan viewers tend to be single, atheist, tech-savvy and drive a Volkswagen.”
– Via last night’s edition of Larry King Live (w/ special guest Conan O’Brien). OK, let’s test this theory out: I’m (happily) uncommitted, an unabashed (and rather obsessed) techie geek, predominantly a Buddhist (although Buddhism isn’t against other religions per se, it...

And now it's time for some real (gaming) talk...
So lately I’ve been quite passionately enamoured with the recently released Konami hip hop video game: Def Jam RAPSTAR (for the PS3). It’s the very first console game that revolves around the art form of MCing (which the player gets to explore first hand via the accompanying microphone). It’s essentially a hip hop karaoke game (something I’ve been waiting for...
