OF COURSE WE’LL BE EXPLODING NEXT WEEKEND FOR COMING TO AMERICA.

BUT GET YOUR VOTE ON FOR NEXT MONTH over on the myspace page.

Saturday night (i.e. tomorrow) there will be a huge all-night arts and music festival taking
place at the Santa Monica Pier called Glow. I’m not sure what the entire deal is but there’s going to be music and huge interactive art installations going from dusk until dawn so it sounds like it could be fun. I also hear there’s going to be some big rambunctious bike ride crashing the event at some point.

Believe the Hype.

I didn’t poop all week cause I couldn’t wait to see the batman. Now that I’ve seen it, I’ve pooped, and I keep on pooping cause I am so relieved. Without giving anything away, I will say that this is an important mile stone for Comic book films. This fantasy comic film turned heavy cop drama film noir, is a first for the genre and best picture quality, (not that it needs to be quality to win since crash won) but still, high caliber, worth price of admission, twice. This movie leaves the theater with you, and takes your breath away when the Joker is present, he is always present.

A solid 5 madex’s out of 5.

Sprinkle some Oscars on this film quick.

Guys,

I have a lot of work to do and I need to procrastinate but none of you are on line. Will someone entertain me? Im answering emails like a hungry lion and I’m about to start reading live journals. Phil, Slade…simon…somebody help.

Sincerely

Dear Bumps,
While most gangstas continue to rap about money, bitches and booze, I can’t help but notice our current economy is changing the way they play out their ‘gangsta’ life.
Dollars? Who’s flashing dollars? JayZ now chooses to flaunt stacks of Euros in music videos. Once worth less than the dollar, their value now is not only more powerful and adds color variety to the hand instead of boring GameBoy Green.
And with the always rising gas prices, many gangsters are taking to bikes to do their dirty work instead of opting for the classic drive by.

Is it time to flee the US and hope to raise a family on a stronger currency? Or should I wait and hope McCain can set our American gangsters back to the basics?
And when will I be seeing this bicycle drive by option in Grand Theft Auto?

Dear WCK,

When writing to askabumps@gmail.com you must address your questions to ASKABUMPS and not just Bumps. I will assume if you address me in the familiar that it is personal email and call you with my gas saving thug solutions. This helps no one.
While it is a tragedy that our over inflated way of life is coming to an abrupt halt, I applaud Jay Z for teaching a perhaps non international gangsta community about world currencies. What I want to see more of, is thugs buying rims doing dollar to euro conversions in their head. Perhaps next Yen and then maybe…maybe the british pound (but really the pound fluctuates so frequently that it would truly be impressive to accurately convert them in ones dangerous mind).
The bicycle drive by is a staple of many cultures although with the exception of japan, mostly 3rd world ones. Don’t hate, wck, on the lack of gangsta resources, but instead applaud their ingenuity and creativity. Perhaps if the drive bys were done by surrey instead of standard bike they could at least capture the team spirit of a traditional, lowrider gangbang. Perhaps you should suggest this at the next city council meeting or write your congressman.
Askabumps does fully endorse fleeing for fairer economic climates. Perhaps to a country where you can buy a family and raise them on the currency of your adopted country only to shuttle them back here and expose them to Von Trapp family style culture shock when Emperor Mc Cain once again returns the platinum spinning medallions to the shorties who deserve them.

Sincerely
