Hey Guys
I promise I will do this only one more time then never again.
As I posted a week ago I have sent my audition tape to Def Poetry Jam (on HBO). It is Always a longshot, no matter how good you are, to get on such things but I KNOW I'm good enough. It would help me CONSIDERABLY if there were some further...

Done 
The first two posters have come out for the show I'm hosting at Chico State University. I've already mentioned that they spelled my name "Kile" instead of "Kyle". Another thing on the same poster that is annoying me is the phrase
"The Youth Speaks Out"
not

Ah, to be pedantic and to actually care. I know how annoying that is.
Biscuits and gravy sounds weird, but I don't like eating chips with lasagna as it's weird too. It's like eating spaghetti with mash. Just not right. However I refuse to not have an item that I can leave on my plate in protest at the end of my meal if it's free.

I'll add that to my interesting and true philosophies of life.
They mispelled my name on the first posters for the chico state slam (I know of no one who spells it kile instead of kyle, but these people are getting a college education so they must know something I don't). I raised some hell about this and the later additions of the posters are going to be correct.
the cool. I am getting regular mentions...

Slammed Wednesday night. One of the poets who attends my open mic came to slam and competed. Her poetry is beautiful. It's not slammy. She got decent, not great scores and was almost in tears after reading (she was second to the last reader). I was in first place by more than a point so she knew I would be in the second round. She...

For Gawd Sake the man can't even commit suicide correctly.
You heard, no doubt, about the idiot that parked his car on the Railroad tracks then chickened out at the last minute derailing two trains and killing (I think 10) people on the train.

thanks for the props!
I don't think they have suspenders.........if you get to meet Mos Def, tell him I wanna have his babies!
I don't know if you are a Saul Williams fan or not, but I saw him on MtvU on campus yesterday and got all excited that they would give air time to such a great spoken word artist

I Need Your Help.
As I posted a few days ago I just sent my audition tape into HBO's Def Poetry Jam. It seems like a longshot to get the gig (as are all such thing) but I know I am good enough.
It would help me CONSIDERABLY if you could find it in your heart to e-mail DPJ and ask that I be accepted....

Sent!Just read and/or heard a couple things I enjoyed that I thought I would share.
I asked a guy I know who just moved to a nearby podunk town how things were there. He answered
"It would take 32 women to make a smile there"
And I read this morning something Will Durst said that made me laugh.

Well, my goal last night was to get drunk, beat up a small man and fuck two different women.
Didn't get drunk
didn't fight anybody
Made out with one woman.
I consider this a successful campaign.

Okay...I gonna whine a bit today so please forgive me.
I just...moments ago...closed a door. I am stepping out of the life of a woman that I love and have loved for some time. It is for the best and I know that, but it hurts like a motherfucker.
I'll get better, but there it is.
Thanks for allowing me to whine.

You are allowed to whine. I don't believe you've met your whining quota in quite a few years now.
Time to max it out.
