I was just informed that PMC’s World’s TOP Podsafe Artists Volume #1 is now available. Here’s the plug taken from the link above where you can order the CD: "The top podsafe songs of 2005 all in one collection! These are the artists that you as listeners and podcasters have singled out as the best of the independant music scene. They all have received massive airplay this year on podcasts and it showed in their rankings on the PMC Top10.

This will not only help them do things like pay their rent, but it will also continue to show the rest of the world that podcasting is not just going to be big in the future, it is HUGE now."

Cool! I’m happy to have "Upside Down" on this…the exposure sure can’t hurt ;)  Also, I was searching

the Podsafe Music Network and listening to clips of the other tracks on this CD and ..hell, i’m in some pretty good company. I especially like Adrina Thorpe’s "Fly Fly Fly" track as well as a handful of others.  You can hear the full songs on this "Keepin’ It Real" CD by searching the song titles at the Podsafe Network…you’ll see what I mean… there’s some great stuff on it. [Shouts out to C-Dogg for organizing this!] And so…if you like what you hear and feel like showing support here’s the link : http://www.podmusiccountdown.com/keepinitreal.htm

[End of Plug and on to DEATH NEWS]

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger refused to block the execution early Tuesday of Stanley Tookie Williams, rejecting the notion that the founder of the murderous Crips gang had atoned for his crimes and found redemption on death row.

I really don’t know too much about the details of the case and I’m a little worried to even comment about it. The way I see it is (whether or not you support the Death Penalty) if you are convicted of the crime with such obvious evidence, writing a bunch of children’s books while in prison trying to steer kids away from gangs(which actually glamorized him as a "gang celebrity") should not overturn anything. Besides,… What else does the guy have to do but write in prison anyway? Hell, even "I’m sorry" doesn’t cut it with me…not with this sort of crime.

What sort of message does letting him live send to gang members? What sort of message to the families of the victims? And this BULLSHIT on the news of Riot Threats is just CRAP. You didn’t see riots happening when O.J. got off with just a slap on the wrist when MURDERING 2 people.

What’s even worse is to give an opinion on this and to be called or thought of as a racist…I’m not, I have friends and family of every race, age, sexual orientation and sex. All I know is, if anyone were to brutally murder any friend or family member of mine, death by lethal injection would be WAY TOO KIND.
