Del The Funky Homosapien
Apr 26
This was on the radio today.. talk about bringing me back.
[Chorus: "Mistadobalina Mr. Bob Dobalina. . .]
Mistadobalina Mistabobdobalina Mistabobdobalina
won’t you quit
you really make me sick with ya fraudulent behavior
you’re gonna make me flip and then an army couldn’t save ya
why don’t you behave ya little rugrat
take a little tip from the tabloid
because I know I’m not paranoid
when I say I saw ya tryin’ to mock me
now you and your crew are on a mission tryin’ to hawk me
but it isn’t happenin’ ya fraudulent foes
you used to front big time now I suppose
that everything’s cool since the style of apparel you adopted
you used to make fun of but now you wanna rock it
so you gotta kick it with the homies
but D-E-L is already hip to your cronies
me and CM-PX thought about this and never have we seen a
brother who could look like Mista, Mista, Mistadobalina…

Wrong Number
Apr 23
My cell phone rang at work today. Since I’m at work and waiting to hear about a new baby I figured I would bite and answer the phone even though I didn’t know the number. I answered it and this is how the converstation went:
Girl: Do you know where Cambridge Street is in Somerville?
Me: Uhh.. who is this?
Girl: Why does that matter. Do you know where Cambridge Street is in Somerville?
Me: Well, I guess it doesn’t. I don’t know where it is but I could look it up for you.
Girl: You seriously have no idea who this is?
Me: No, but do you want me to look it up.
Girl: You’re an asshole.
Me: If you’re going to be mean I’m not going to help you.
..awkward silence..
Me: If I don’t need to know who you are, I’ll tell you that my name is Eric.
Girl: .. click ..
I’m lucky. I get to work every fifth Saturday. I’ve been listening to Sirius quite a bit lately and I’m able to stream it at work. Today I noticed a new channel “Sirius 43 – BackSpin: The pioneers of old skool rap and hip-hop.” Here is a sample of what I heard over the past hour or so:
- Kris Kross – Jump (90’s BoUnCeBaCk!)
- Whistle (Nothing Serious) – Just Buggin’
- Positive K – I got a Man
- Candyman – Knockin’ Boots
- RunDMC – My Adidas
- Jazzy Jeff & Fresh Prince – Girls Ain’t Nothing But Trouble
- Black Sheep – The Choice is Yours (Revisited)
- Coolio – Fantastic Voyage
- Beastie Boys – Girls
Good stuff. Sirius, in my experience, has a much better selection than XM. I highly recommend it!
Take a second and read this article about a child support case in the counts:
I have no idea how this is NOT being thrown out of the courts or how this guy is being forced to pay child support. I’m both shocked and amazed. They definitely didn’t cover this form of getting pregnant in high school health class. This begs the question, “How?” The only thing I can figure is that he received oral while wearing protection. Then, when he wasn’t looking, she poured it into the appropriate spot? Any other suggestions are welcome..
Ahhh.. My room with a view.

Good morning.. This view reminds me a lot of me backyard at home. Yeah.
The A-Rod Conspiracy Part II
Apr 15
I’m not usually a conspiracy theory kind of guy but A-Rod just happens to “save�? a boys life in his off day in downtown Boston? And to top that off the kid and his dad just happen to be Yankees Fans? Right…
My first Flickr Upload

My first Flickr Upload, originally uploaded by PollyPrissyPants.
Here is a quick snapshot of my new toy. I have decided to go back to a
laptop. I’ll be selling the G5 on Ebay when I get back from vacation! :)
I must admit (shamefully) that I am running FreBSD inside Microsoft Virtual Server 2005 for some hosting business that I am doing. I noticed early on that I was seeing weird problems with the clock in the virtual machine. I scored this tidbit after a bunch of time on Google that worked forby adding adding ‘kern.hz=100′ to /boot/loader.conf. Read more to see the entire thread I grabbed of Google..
