A more cultural take on the Blog

This article is dedicated to none other then to my close, personal friend Usain. Asalaam alaikum my brother.




Now, before I start, I just want to point out that after a horrendous start to the season, The University of Tennessee Vols have now risen to 8-6 in league play. Not only has this team found a style of play that suits there skills, but they also attracted the services of Jarnell Stokes. What Jarnell Stokes brings is a very unique situation. Having graduated early from high school early, he was able to join Tennssee for the later part of the season. What this has created is the opportunity for the first ever one-and-a-half and done. Now, if he were to go on and to succeed in the league, this might create a new blueprint for young men to jump to league with as much skill as possible. Imagine instead of staying in HS for the second, and most pointless semester ( like Shaquile O'neal at the 3point line), John Wall plays 1.5 full seasons full seasons under the supreme tutelage of Coach Cal. Now, what this might have lead to is not only a super freak Wall, but one that could efficiently run ann offense, and could also hit an open jump shot. Now, imagine if Tyreke had a little more expereince running an offense, and learned how to select his shots. Scary right? Lets hope this catches fire because this is as a whole has incredible athlete breeding potential.

Now on to the bulk of this final article, and that is the fine fine feature length moving picture known colloquial as Rush Hour 2. In this film, Jackie Chan plays the quirky, and awkward kung fu master cop. Now normally, I would have no problem with this, but a man with this much skill in kicking ass should not be a cop. In real life, he would be much higher up due to his clear skill. God damn, in the movie alone he scales up a bamboo scaffolding, carries himself the water using only his arms, and a Styrofoam box. Now, I'm not saying this man is JCVD (Jean Claud Van D) but the dude offers so major fucking skills that a natural peon cop should not have. Normally, where Pump is from, the cops are fairly out of shape, middle aged, white men that have a sense of entitlement that would make Randy Moss look humble, so this man sticks out. To me, this man deserves a part in some high order of government or be part of Gang instead and get bank. Then, Jackie is joined by the one and only Chris Tucker. Now, many of my more cultured readers are thinking wait, Chris Tucker as a cop, wasn't that the skinny brotha that played Smokey in the always classic Friday? Well yes it is, and he maintains the same moxie and vibrato that made us all love him as the pot yea. Through out this fine film, one will notice the same general paranoia, general quirkiness,  and the general psychotics that made him one of the best pot comedy character of all. And quite possibly the greatest of all time. Whats most amazing about this movie is that they point out something that most of us watchers have always wanted to say. This statement is FUCKING prophetic from the lips of Agent Carter (Chris Tucker) he says, "Dont nobody understand the words comin' out of your mouth." Well put my man.

Then on to my final order of business and that is the second movie I watched, and that is the Matrix Reloaded. And folks, if you haven't watched this recently, you should go back and do so, it is amazing. But, I do not want to talk about the whole film, for now. Right now, I want to focus two of my favorite characters, and these are none other than the twins. In this movie, we are introduced to them with one of the single greatest shots of all time. As the camera pans to them, you notice two albino men in white out attire smoking a hookah in the dark corner of the room, with dread locks. Now, I don't know about you, but let me tell ya, when I first saw this my prayers were answered. Never before had to characters been so mysterious, and hilarious at the same time. Then to supplament this by giving them "Kitty Pryde Mode" so that they can go through any physical object whenever they feel like it, and heal all their wounds instantly. But, if this wasn't already enough, they decided to turn them into total thugs also. How you may ask? Let me provide some evidence of this. First off, they drive a Caddy Escalade, in all white of course. Then, one of the twins close range weapon of choice is none other than a whited out barbers razor which yet again yells thug to me. Finally, if you listen very closely, every time they have a shot of them in the Caddy you can faintly hear "keep their heads ringing" by Dr. Dre. Although this last piece of evidence is not true, I hope to god you get my point, and that these two goons are knuckle tattoos reading "thug life", in all white of course, from being the biggest thugs all time.

Sincerly Pump Action Kraus.
