I love that movie so much. I wouldn’t be surprised if I’ve seen it 20 times. I actually bought and read the hagakure because of ghost dog.
im grateful you said hair.
In honesty that is making me peckish for some fruits now.
I watched Ghost Dog because of the Hagakure, and the RZA.
Even really connected with a film about being a 15 year old assassin, with the full soundtrack by The Chemical Brothers?
Might be the only cervical spine snap from full guard in a movie…
“agent keep your distance”.
Oops…
I loved watching that movie in theaters. I only watched it 2 or 3 times though. I watched the tv series but I didn’t like it as much as the movie.
Tomorrow I start boxing training with Adam Little, who I keep being endlessly recommended as a one to one coach among the boxers I know in the area. Plan is to learn as much as I can from him over the next few months before surgery.
Work is going well, online coaching platform is building nicely. Novel edits are taking longer but I had to redo a few chapters to get it how I wanted and had new ideas in hindsight that i preferred to the last draft, but it’s going at least.
I don’t know if I’m imagining things but this woman’s nose doesn’t seem normal. Did she get a nose job or something or does her nose just look different. Maybe there’s nothing wrong with her nose and I’m just imagining things.
define normal? There’s a huge amount of shape variation across the planet.
If she’s contoured the hell out of it with make up as well that will make it more pronounced as well.
Her nose just looks off to me. I’m probably just imagining it anyway. So no one is going to mention how beautiful her dress is?
So many of these videos are polished with filters and airbrushing, so that’s likely.
The best way to check is to compare these edited videos with an “au naturel”, pic.
This pic (I think of the same player) is pretty old (5+ years) compared to the video, so it’s entirely possible she had some work done.
If this video doesn’t get you training, nothing will.
I don’t care if you are presenting a Powerpoint at some dumb job, I want you to be singing “LET’S BOOGIE FOR A WHILE!” in your head.
This is my trigger phrase to my younger son (the boxer) when he walks by and I start throwing punches, so he’s not caught off guard.

Sold my soul and signed my name in blood
Stole it back now praying in the dark
Fooled the devil begging for a fight
Count the dollars make your bet tonight
Feel strong like an oiled machine
All the anger boils within
Move it give it
The high rollers are in
I get groovy, now turn it on and fight
Seal the deal and let’s boogie for a while
Let’s get groovy, burning out with rage
Seal the deal and let’s do it all again
I can’t believe you were able to research all that. You first had to figure out her name and then you had to find a picture that was 5 years old.
This is the blackest thing I’ve ever heard. This is exactly how black men talk to each other. The entire video is talking about how to deal with hard times. Other people may think this is cruel but that’s just how we communicate with each other.
“man up nigga,” “punking out is not an option,”
It’s a gift. I can’t control it.
