Whoa...look what I found!!!
It's definitely a Puma Mihara MY-06 with the White / Palace Blue / Orange Soles colorway but this one comes with a "STRAP". How 'bout that?

It seems that the lace-up ones I recently purchased isn't the only version in existence, besides the "Mid-Cut" version. No. This one is exactly like the one I just bought except this has what looks to be an adjustable strap on each end.

Interesting.

But I must say, although it is still stylish in every sense of the word. It is however, not as elegant as the true lace-up version. Yes, that's right! I'm saying mine is without a doubt better looking than this 'strap on edition'. I mean I would still sport this one, I wouldn't mind it at all. Although it is a strap on, it still is a Mihara 6 after all!!!


It still has that awesome color combination.
---WHITE - PALACE BLUE - ORANGE ---
It still is the lowcut version, as opposed to the midcut version. And it's just ultra-frickin' cool!!!
I get many stares whenever I sport this particular Miharas. It looks so slick with a pair of walking shorts on!!! Not to mention looking funky fresh with a pair of jeans on, but then again. All of my kicks looks awesome with a pair of Straight Leg, Bootcut Jeans on!!!

Anyways, the guy that's selling this pair on ebay has the starting bid of $109.00 GBP, which is roughly about $190.00 US. That's a grip!!! Even the previous 2 pairs of Mihara 6's I purchased on Ebay wasn't that much, almost but not quite!!!
It's funny too because the person that's selling this particular 'Strap on' version is from Germany. It kinda tells you that you have to search halfway sometimes around the world to find a pair of these rare beauties your size. I did. I bought the midcut version from Spain, (which by the way hasn't arrived yet...I asked the seller and she said that it was sent and that it was held by Customs, which answers the reason for the cause for delay.) My second pair the lowcut version, I got from a very cool dude in Australia. His shipping was phenomenal!!! I literally recieved the shoes in less than 5 days!!! Ain't that incredible? Especially a package that came from Australia got shipped to the United States in less than 5 frickin' days???

Brilliant!!!

Well, I can safely say I won't be bidding on this pair. For the simple fact that, I don't think I need another one when I already have two pairs just like it, well almost!!! From the looks of the picture though, it appears that this one has been used before. I mean look at the bottom of the shoes? Is that dirt I see??? Hmmm.

Anyways, If I ever come across another pair that is also 10.5UK, which equivalent to 11.5US, and 45EUR. that has a lower starting bid than $190.00US I will definitely bid on it!!! In fact I will snipe it!!! Fer'sure!!!!

PUMA MY-06
by MIHARA YASUHIRO


The PUMA Mihara 2003 collection features three “MY 6” styles: Mid and Low cuts. Each MY 6 model differs slightly, but each features a simple and classic upper combined with a unique ‘cross counter’ heel design. The exaggerated, exposed structure of the heel combined with a functional outsole creates a truly unique design and original look. The outsole of the forefoot features a ‘Cat Face’ pattern that was inspired by Japanese computer game characters. The color palette for season includes bright, eye-catching blues, yellows and oranges as well as basics like black and white. Each shoe incorporates the distinctive PUMA formstrip and the PUMA cat logo accents the sleek profile of the toe. The 2003 PUMA Mihara collection will "only" be available at PUMA Concept Stores, high-end boutiques and department stores in major cities in Europe, Asia/Pacific and the United States.



I was wrong about my previous post about these awesome kicks. In the earlier post I stated that I finally got the very same kicks that Cecilia Cheung sported in her film 'Lost In Time. But rather I got the "Mid-cut" version of these same MY-6's. It is virtually the same pair of Mihara 6's, except the first pair of Mihara 6's I bought was the 'Mid-cut version. If you check out my earlier posts you'll see the mid cut version but I'm a nice guy so I'll post it here to save you time.


Check it out: The first pair I bought features a 'midcut version of the 'much lower, and cooler MY-06's I recently purchased. In case you're wondering, I got all of my Miharas on Ebay. It is next to impossible to find them in Stores, and or Boutiques. Even if you do, they'll be hella expensive!!! I just love Shoes!!! well *clearing-throat* except 'New Balance shoes of course!!!!!

Anyways thank God, I was able to get the 'low-cut' version of this popular pair of kicks!!! Now, I can honestly say that 'I now have the very pair, the exact pair of Mihara's Cecilia Cheung wore in her 'Lost in Time' flick!!! I was happy before, but now I am REALLY HAPPY!!! Let me celebrate this by downing a full bottle of ice-cold-Sapporro!!!!


Despite overlooking a very small detail on the first pair of Mihara 6's I bought, I am however still glad that I did. Because I have 2 pairs of Mihara 6's to sport!!! I will be sporting the midcut Mihara 6's whenever I wear a pair of Jeans, and I wll be sporting the 'lowcut Mihara 6's, whenever I wear my very low walking shorts!!! Since this is my favorite of the Mihara's, I'm glad that I bought 2 pairs!!!

See, check out Cecilia Cheung...

(isn't she beautiful? she's also my future-wife)

...sporting these exact 'lowcut' Puma Mihara 6's, it's even the same exact color scheme!!! Oh yeah!


If the MY-06 never existed, my next favorite Mihara's would be the Mihara 10's!!!




Check it out: In case you haven't read my previous post about this pair of Puma Mihara Kicks that I also own, I present to you.....the MY-10's!!!

a.k.a Puma Mihara 10 .

Like with all of the pairs of kicks I own, the first thing that I like about the shoes would be the designs.

I always look at the intricacies of the design, and what sets it apart from the other crop of shoes already out there. Aside from the designs, I also look at the color schemes. I always check out the color combinations, and whether the color of the shoes correspond with the shoe design.

These are the elements the Puma Miharas succeed in!!! The designs are unique, and original, and the colors are a pleasant to the eyes not to mention eye-catching!!! Every Miharas and Puma shoes for that matter are a work of art!!! I can also mention other shoe brands out there but I will refrain since this particular blog is about my Puma Mihara 6's, and about the 2 pair (so far) of Miharas I own. I guarantee you my Puma Mihara collection will expand in the coming months!!!

And just for your F.Y.I: these are the other known color schemes of the famous Puma Mihara 6's, unfortunately however they pale in comparison to the ( White / Palace Blue / Orange Soles ) colorways!!!
LEFT: (WHITE / CHALK WHITE / BLACK Soles)

TOP: (RED / CHERRY RED / PLUM Soles)

BOTTOM: ( WHITE / PALACE BLUE / ORANGE Soles )

"Honestly, which one would you pick?"

Giovanni Ribisi.
One of my favorite young actors here in Tinseltown. A very versatile actor with his repertoire ranging from a double-crossing hillbilly in 'Cold Mountain, to a brave young soldier in 'Saving Private Ryan, an ambitious but careless car thief in 'Gone in 60 Seconds, and a schizoprenic toy airplane designer in 'The Flight of the Phoenix. His acting credits are endless, truly one of the rare talents to come along in Hollywood.

He's a regular at the Starbucks I frequent. I'll usually spot him in the middle of the day, he'll usually order a hot drink whether it's a Tazo, Mocha, or what I don't know. But when he's there he's like any normal person minding his own business. Many times I've had the opportunity to go up to him, and say what's up but, I don't wanna bother the man. I'm sure he's busy all the time, those actors and actresses start their day very early I've been told. Besides I don't wanna make a fool of myself, if for some reason he doesn't acknowledge me, although I don't think that'll be the case. I'm sure he wants to be left alone just as much as I'd want to be left alone if I'm a talented young actor like he is. True Celebrities avoid attention at all cost. I'm surprised no one has tipped off a papparazzi to stalk him in that particular Starbucks. I'm glad though because the man deserves a break, a quiet time, and every now and then I get to see him in person. One of my favorite actors in Hollywood!!

But...and this is a huge BUT!!! Today I saw him and I was very disappointed!!! Not at him, but by what shoes he was wearing!!! What is it you ask??? Well Giovanni happened to be sporting a brand of shoes that I hate with a passion!!! Could you guess which shoe brand he was sporting???
Take a very wild frickin' guess???

If you said 'NEW BALANCE, then you got it!!!! Giovanni, the man, the very talented, and versatile young actor in Hollywood, was wearing a crappy ass black pair of 'NEW BALANCE kicks!!!!

Giovanni was sporting a pair of black New Balance kicks similar to this one!!! Why Giovanni, Why???

ARRRGGGHHHH!!! oh the humanity!!!!! Why couldn't he sport something else, some other brand of kicks??? I mean he could've been sporting a pair of Golas, or Ben Shermans, or Sauconys, or Pony, or Converse, Nikes, Adidas, Y-3's, Pumas, Miharas, or anything.....anything at all!!!!
But why does it have to be a NEW BALANCE SHOES????? WHY, GIOVANNI WHY?????

Why did you have to sport a pair of New Balance shoes??? That despicable shoe maker does not deserve your precious feet Giovanni!!! Come on!!! I know the retro look is in, but why choose a crappy shoe maker's brand of shoes, why choose New Balance??? Don't you know what this'll do to your immaculate image? It will tarnish it!!! New Balance shoes will destroy your awesome persona Giovanni, it might even give you bad luck in your career if you don't stop wearing them!!!

Giovanni, if you're reading this first of all 'Thank you!!! [enter]*jumping for joy*[here]
Anyways please find my New Balance Blog I wrote a few days ago, read it and you'll understand why you should not be wearing NEW BALANCE SHOES.
The New Balance shoe brand is a cancer to the whole shoe industry. It should be banned in all countries in order to stop the mediocreness in shoes design.

Please Giovanni, for the sake of your Image, and reputation stop wearing 'New Balance shoes!!!
Your Hollywood career may very well depend on it!!! Listen to a fan of yours, (that's me!) that knows about shoes!!! New Balance shoes are evil!!!

Oh by the way Giovanni, in case you're wondering I was the guy sittin' down on the sofa inside Starbucks. You saw me our eyes met for a second!!! I had a pair of black Oakley shades on, and a pair of white brand spankin' new ASICS Corsair kicks!!! Does it ring a bell??? I also had my iPod on, and I was drinking a venti drip!!! I was sittin' right beside the entrance, that's why I had an excellent view of your shoes!!!!

You should've seen my face when I saw you sportin' those god-awful New Balance kicks!!!
Giovanni, PLEASE--PLEASE--PLEASE GET RID OF THOSE NEW BALANCE SHOES!!!
I hope the evil-ness of those New Balance shoes doesn't seep into your brain.
Furthermore, I hope those 'New Balance shoes doesn't affect your brilliance in acting!!!

During lunch hour, I found out that Carl's Jr. has raised the price up on their flagship burger; The Famous Star. It is now officially selling for $1.99!!!

Ain't that a bitch???

I mean COME ON, this a famous star burger we're talking about!!! Okay it's much better than Jack in the Box's Jumbo Jack but at least that's still .99 cents thank goodness!!! But it's a frickin' famous star for a $1.99!!!.....Gimme a break!!!!

I mean LOOK AT IT!!! It's a puny little thing, the famous star!!! I remember the days when this liliputian of a burger was priced at .99 cents. I would literally down like 2-3 of em'. I even forgave Carl's Jr. when they raised up the price to $1.29 I was still loyal to the game!!! I would just tell them to put Extra-Everything whenever I would order one or two, to cover the .29 cent inflation cost!!!! But today, I was stunned when my AM [stands for Assistant Manager] told me that they were now going for $1.99!!! I mean, the audacity of Carl's Jr. to literally OVERPRICE this .25 cents to make burger!!! If they think I'm going to spend a $1.99 for this crappy overpriced burgers they have another thing comin!!! I'll be more than happy to take my $1.99 to 'IN and OUT Burgers and pay an extra .49 cents for a QUALITY BURGER!!!
Are you reading this Carl's Jr Corporate people??? This sucks, this whole thing SUCKS!!!

Until you lower the price of that stupid aSS famous star burger of yours, you will never squeezed another cent from me!!!! Why I'm sure if Carl N. Karcher, the founder of Carl's Jr. were to learn of this SACRILIGIOUS OVERPRICING of the FAMOUS STAR BURGER you guys are doing he would roll over his grave!!!

Don't they understand how much business they are going to lose if they don't lower the price of this burger at once!!!

Have you ever seen their commercial of a guy who doesn't know a thing when it comes to cooking? Well, that is reality!!! Even as I type this blog, many Americans out there are starving because now for the first time, they can't afford a stupid famous star burger!!!

I mean look at that, would you pay a $1.99 for that???
The answer is: HELL NO!!!




I've heard alot of BONEHEAD IDEAS in my life but this, this is a national crisis!!! It's literally a fast-food Pearl Harbor!!! The 9/11 for the fast food inflation epidemic!!! Pretty soon Jumbo Jacks will also be $1.99 as well as the dollar menus at Mc Donald's, not that I eat at McDonald's I never have since I was 10 years old. Especially ever since I saw Morgan Spurlock's "SUPER-SIZE-ME!!!" the very smell of McDonald's makes me gag and wanna puke!!!

But really, this is equally as bad as the Gas Price Inflation!!! For the many Famous Stars I've ever eaten in my life, this has got to be the saddest day in my Fast Food Eating Career!!!

From this day forth, unless Carl's Jr. lowers the price of the Famous Star back to $1.29 'you noticed I'm not even asking for the .99 cents price, because I believe $1.29 is a fair price to pay for this burger!!!

Anyways, unless Carl's Jr. lowers the price of the Famous Star back to $1.29 I will never eat at Carl's Jr. ever again!!!

You can take that $1.99 FAMOUS STARS and shove it up your Corporate Executive ASSES!!!

We'll see how much you charge for your burgers now!!!......string them up boys!!!

Tryin' to charge me a $1.99 for a frickin' Famous Star Burger...PLEASE!!!!
How about I give all of you Bonehead Carl's Jr. Executives KNUCKLE SANDWICHES at no charge!!!

MY 10 Patriot Blue with Varsity White Stripe colorway.

...in other words, ULTRA-COOL!!!!
...in Japanese, totemo SUGOI desu yo ne!!!
...in Tagalog, abah...HANIP!!!
[insert] other foreign language [here]

The kicks that you see before you Ladies and Gentlemen is called "MY 10" If you had read my previous post of another MY kicks you'll know that the abbreviation MY stands for;

Mihara Yasuhiro.

Mihara Yasuhiro is a highly regarded, and famous Japanese Shoe Designer. He is an avid fan of Pop Culture, Anime, Video Games, and he applies all of the influence into his designs. Hence, his very unique often mesmerizing shoe designs is produced into a final product and that my friend are Mihara-san's creations the MY or often reffered to simply as, The Miharas. It is released by Puma.
I sported these today, and man everyone was like staring at em'!! That's understandable since they are a very cool pair of kicks that I'm proud to own!!! If I can get another pair I would. It's just that these particular ones are so frickin' hard to come by let alone find someone who's selling them!! I checked Ebay out, that's where I got this pair, and for an excellent price too!!! But no ones' selling them, not this particular one anyway. I want the same one, the same color!!!

In fact, today I saw some guy whose also sporting a pair of retro Puma kicks, was just staring at my Puma Miharas!!! Seriously I mean, this happen in Starbucks okay, and I was just chillin' sitting down eating a cinnamon donut, reading the sports section, and sippin' on my venti java and this guy just kept on staring at it!!! Not just him either, another dude who's sitting behind him was also staring. A chick with her boyfriend was also staring, heck her boyfriend was looking at it!!!

Luckily I had my Oakley shades on and I can stare back at them without getting noticed. It's just funny to see their reaction, especially the way they were looking at it. You'd swear they were looking at a hot chick, or a naked girl. Hell, I would!!! My cellphone rang, and as I was in the process of answering it I noticed the guy who'd been staring my Miharas got up and started walking towards me. Right then I got the feeling that he was probably gonna ask me where I got my pair. But as he got closer I answered my cellphone...it was my sister from Seattle, WA. As he saw me answer my phone, he just took his attention off of me and kept walking towards the exit. After that, I got this really creepy feeling like I was violated or something!!!! Very weird indeed!!! One thing is for sure, these Mihara 10's are definitely flashy, ultra cool, very light, and very comfortable!!!

I have to make a confession, I am not much of a shoes fan. I've only gotten into the shoe collecting bit, because of Kris' influence. He collects nothing but Air Jordans, originals and retros.
With his influence I bought two Jordans very recently. They are Jordan XIX SE which you see before you!!!

Jordan XIX SE White with Varsity Red, and Grey. $99.99 at Nike Outlet, Las Vegas NV

I really like these Jordan Kicks, I like the design, and of course the colors!!! There are several colorways of these shoes. All Jordans come in different colors!. It was actually Kris who spotted these kicks at the Nike Outlet Store in Las Vegas, NV. There was like three pairs left, ironically all three of them were my size!!! I wear a size 11 US. I say ironically because it's usually the other way around, usually there would be every size known to man except mine. Anyways, I got all three of em' and picked out the best pair of the three. The others had minor scratches, scuffings, dings, and creases I guess from being tried on and stuff. So lucky me, with the help of my brother Kris I was able to buy an awesome pair of Jordan kicks at half the retail price...well.....almost half!!!

Jordan XIX White, Varsity Silver and Grey $99.99 at Nike Outlet Las Vegas NV

Here's the other Jordan also bought from the same place actually I bought these two Jordans at the same time!!! Hey, both had excellent prices!!!! Anyways, I like this one also because it had that super cool mesh thingy on the front of the laces, in fact I didn't even know it had laces. But man these Jordans are SUPER comfortable!!

I used them both while I was in Vegas, walking around Bellagio, Ceasars, Aladdin, it's like walking on air. I know their made for Basketball but they are also very ideal for walking, running, and of course for playing basketball!!!

Thank God for letting me score these shoes, and for many more to come!!!
New Balance. "I hate New Balance Shoes with a passion!!!"

Let me tell you why.

I had a pair when I was a little kid probably at the age of 6-7 years old, and they were the ugliest pair of shoes I have ever seen. Truly the ugliest pair known to man, in my point of view!!!

You'd think after all these years they would improve their designs. Hell, if I was the CEO of the company and I saw the designs of any of these shoes they made, I would personally as CEO come up to the designer and punch him in the chops, and then fire him, her, or them. It would be interesting to see how many designers have ever worked for New Balance. Because all of their shoes 'LOOK THE SAME!!!!! THEY ARE ALL UGLY!!!!

This kinda looks like the one I had when I was a kid I'd swear it's even the same color, and that was over 20 years ago!!! See what I mean by New Balance designers having no improvements, and unimaginative technical designs??? I'm telling you there's only one guy designing these crappy shoes!!! Why would anyone wanna put this disgrace of a shoe design on their feet anyway? Their slogan should read: "New Balance, making shitty shoes for your crappy tommorrow!"

I would hate to even think that there are different designers involved because really all New Balance shoes look the same.For Men or Women, Sports, Athletic-inspired, whatever....all New Balance shoe designs look the same. No originality, no distinction, nothing!!!! It would be easier for me to think that after all these years, there's only one dude cranking up all the designs for New Balance shoes. Sadly however I don't think so!!!! After all, this is New Balance shoes I'm talking about, and New Balance Shoes just plain suck!!!

Really the designs are so mediocre, without an ounce of originality. I also hate the stupid "N" logo that adorns the bajillion-kajillion pairs of New Balance shoes in the world. I also hate 'NB' shoes because every day I'll see an average of 10-15 different people sporting them!!! I'm telling you it's a conspiracy!!! New Balance is probably owned by Dr. Evil and is out mass producing these god-awful New Balance shoes in order to take over the world. I think each 'New Balance shoes have a built in chip inside connected to a central computer that when switched on, it will take over the people that happens to be wearing them. And with every New Balance wearing humans at the control of Dr. Evil, it will signal the end of the world!!!!

But seriously, I really hate New Balance Shoes!!! I hate it, I hate it, I hate it!!!! I can't believe people actually, and stupidly pay $65-$100 for a pair of these ugly, ugly shoes!!! I mean come on!!! I would rather walk on broken glass rather than put a pair of these shitty New Balance kicks on my wonderful feet!!!!

All New Balance shoes owners should all be punished!!! I don't understand how anyone can sport these ugly kicks!!! I mean look at it.....aside from the stupid-unimaginative 'N' logo, there is absolutely nothing cool about these kicks!!! Absolutely nothing, I tell you!!!

The shoes on the picture below alone shouts out words like; Horrid, Dreadful, god-awful, Mediocre, Crap, I mean it's just plain U-G-L-Y!!!! There's nothing else I can say to express my feelings on how much I dislike NEW BALANCE Shoes!!! Nothing!!!! However if I do think of some more bad things to say about the New Balance Crappy Shoes I'll make sure to add it here!!!!

I finally found something to help me puke when I've drunk too much beer!!!
And that is to stare at these horrendous, horrible, ugly ass New Balance Shoes!!!

Y-3 White Track & Field.
$350.00 at Neiman Marcus.

I got these today and all I can say is...Man, what an awesome pair of shoes!!! It is very, very light Comfortable as hell, and very unique.
And very fashionable to say the least!!! I mean look at it!!! Have you ever seen a pair of shoes like these before? No, not me anyway!!! I tried it on with a pair of straight legged boot cut Guess Jeans I also have and it looked awesome!!!! I'll definitely be sporting these around town!!!

In fact I can't wait to go somewhere and sport it!! Just like I do with the pair of Mihara 6's I got a few days ago. I get alot of looks whenever I sport that pair of kicks around!!! I'm sure I'll be getting some more stares with these Y-3's on!!!

Just until a few weeks ago, I didn't know about the Y-3 line. All I know is that Adidas the leader in old skooL kicks *their up there along with Asics, and Converse* Adidas Y-3 makes sports apparel like track jackets, sweats, headbands, shoes, & other sports gear under the Y-3 name brand. Everything that is released under the Y-3 Line is designed by Yohji Yamamoto, a famous Japanese Designer. Kinda similar to the way Puma is exclusively releasing the Puma Mihara's designed by Mihara Yasuhiro. It just adds more 'oomph' to the cool factor to have Japanese Designers design sports gear for 2 well established sports apparel maker.

Anyhow back to the shoes, I only came across these Y-3's when I was doing some research online on some of the hottest, latest current European shoe trends. When I saw these hot pair!!! I said to myself, " I gotta have these shoes" so I bought it!!! And I also saw a pair that came in black with 3 white stripes, (see pic below!)I bought that too!!! So, right now I'm in a shoe buying frenzy. I never knew that I could like shoes so much!!!

Y-3 Track & Field Black with White stripes. $350.00 purchased from Ebay.

Way of the Dragon. Bruce Lee, a.k.a The Little Dragon. The man I've always looked up to, ever since I was a little kid. I'm sure I'm speaking for millions of men out there who were once boys watching Sunday afternoon kung fu matinee on TV. Man, was I mesmerized when I saw Bruce Lee in action for the first time.!!! Old skooL Kung Fu flicks totally kicks ass!!! Just the other day I, for no apparent reason popped in the Way of the Dragon DVD on the home theatre, and before you know it Kris, and my roommate Jun, (we all refer to him as Yangman but his real name is Jun) before you know it, all three of us was well engrossed into the movie.
The cat-like stance, the cat-like noise Bruce Lee makes as he gets ready to kick some serious bad guy ass..is simply awesome!!! Watching a Bruce Lee flick is almost therapeutic!!! Just what a guy needs!!!! He's the personification of what all of us guys would want to be like!!!!

With all the current crop of crap we've seen lately such as the very dissappointing DeNiro flick 'Hide and Seek, by the way this movie is sooo bad, I almost broke the television because the plot is so mediocre, that my brother had to keep me from hurling the remote at the television. Arghh, that's 2 hours of my precious life that I'm not going to get back, from this awful awful flick!!!

And then there was 'The Village,...another Shyamalan crap. I don't know but maybe it's just me but, ever since the phenomenal Willis flick 'The Sixth Sense, this guy lost his storytelling touch. The Village tried so hard to create a surprise twisit at the end, however falls flat because by the time the movie does get to the end, whoevers' watching it had fallen asleep by then. Another awful movie, and 2 hours of your life waisted if you were to watch it!!! Although 'Signs did show promise but then again Mel Gibson, and Jouaquin Phoenix bailed 'Shyamalan out by their brilliant acting!!! Anyways enough about my ramblings about recent bad flicks. Just watch a old skooL kung fu flick, and everything will be all right!!!


M.Night Shyamalan....

He does have a cooL 1 letter first name, and a very cool word for a second name. Actually his name sounds like that of a horror novelist! Please Night, let us have the Shyamalan that directed the awesome Sixth Sense whom showed brilliance, and promise!!!
And not the Shyamalan whose currently directed 2 boring coaster rides!!! -insert- Big Yawn -here-

KFC. That's all I gotta say...man I'm stuffed up to my eyeballs!!! Do you ever get the feeling, I'm sure most of us have. When you crave for something to eat for like the whole friggin' day? That happened to me today. All day at work, all I can think about was the Colonel's Original Recipe.

I gotta tell ya, the best part of eating KFC is the very first few bites!!!! I'm talkin' bout your first 2 to 3 pieces of very meaty thighs...hmmm...hmmm!!! Oh yeah!!! I'm not really a big fan of drumsticks!!!

But I can usually finish about 3 sometimes 4 pieces of chicken mostly thighs though!!!

I do love their coleslaw, and of course their gravy but man they gots to lower the prices on them suckas!!! I bet that's where they make all the profit, its through their side orders. Potato wedges, corn, etc. But hey the Colonel's gotta make money somehow, I mean he did steal the secret recipe from the slaves back in the days. I've read this from a reliable online source.

That's understandable, I mean how could a guy that look like this.....


come up with such delicious tasting recipe? I mean really?

When you think about that's messed up. It was bad enough the slaves were considered commodities, and to have this guy steal your recipe and make money off of it? That's adding insult to injury!!! I usually think about this for a moment, but once I bite unto a KFC original recipe chicken thighs, everything bad said about the Colonel quickly fizzles away, and instead I always end up thanking the Colonel for stealing this magnificent recipe from the slaves, and sharing it to all of us Americans, citizens of the land of the free, and home of the brave!!!

Anyhow, my big brother Kris and I, always eat KFC with a hot steaming plate of steamed milagrosa long grain white rice!!! Doesn't that just sound soooo appetizing??? Indeed!!! And guess what we had to drink after the KFC meal? Well...besides H20....we had STARBUCKS Coffee!!
Yes indeedy!!! Kris and I, always get "TWO VENTI DRIPS ROOM FOR CREAM PLEASE!!!" and almost all the time, even though we stated to the Starbucks clerk that we wanted 'room for cream we still always have to dump a spoonful of coffee into their trashcans. What a waste!! Why? because their meaning of 'room for cream' is no room for cream. Period.

[F.Y.I] That is not me on the pic, just a random SB pic I googled!!!

But nowadays I try to avoid dumping spoonfuls of coffee because let's face it, Starbucks coffee ain't cheap!!!Oh no sister...every single day in the morning I spend an average of about $2.30! Price of a regular venti(x-large) is $1.80 + .50 refill, that's $16.10 per week, and $64.40 a month!!!

Just to humor ourselves within a year that's 12 months, that is a grand total of $772.80!!!! WOW!!! That is a considerable amount of money for coffee in a year, Starbucks or not!!! So since it's early July 2005, I figured I'd finally begin honoring my New Year's resolution and that is to save money. So from now on I will budget everything that I spend my money on. I gotta make it a habit no ifs, ands, or buts about it. Yeah right, we'll see how long this lasts!!!

Everyone..I am very happy!!! I would like to share my joy telling you that I finally got these very rare, and unique pair of kicks.

The pair of shoes you are seeing are called MY-6.

An exclusive line of limited edition shoes designed by Japanese Designer Mihara Yasuhiro, and made by Puma.
Average price of a Puma Mihara shoes is $260.

They are the exact same shoes my lovely wife to be wears in her Golden Horse Award winning film "Lost In Time" She won an award for best actress for this flick!!! If you haven't already seen 'Lost in Time' you gotta!!! It's such an awesome movie!!!

Check out the screen caps I made of her wearing these awesome kicks!!!


Aren't they cooL??? They look super awesome on her!!!

I know I'm a dude but...I gotta sport these shoes around here...I live in Los Angeles, CA these shoes are very sought after, and veeerrry expensive!!!

These Puma Miharas go for $260 bucks easily!!! All of the Miharas have very unique and flashy styling on them, because they are designed by a legendary Japanese Shoe designer and avid Anime & Pop Culture fanatic, Mihara Yasuhiro.

Here's another pic of Cecilia Cheung sporting these Puma Mihara 6's!!!
I know it's hard to see the shoes but trust me, it's the very same one she's wearing in the flick!!! It's even the very same color scheme. White with Varsity Blue Logo Stripes, and Burnt Orange Rubber Soles!!!! So So CooL~~~!!!!!! ^_^ 'rejoicing!!!

Words cannot express my deepest joy that I'm feeling right now!!! Despite the difficulties I'm going through. But that's another story, coming soon to a Blog near you!!!

I'm usually not as enthused in shoes as I am about my Miharas. Dont' ask me why, I'm just am!!! I also like Nikes, and Adidas, and Asics, and Converse, and KSwiss, and Diadoras, Y-3's, and I own all of them!!!

Hey, that would make a great Blog wouldn't it? Blogs and Blogs about my awesome shoe collection? Oh yeah!!!!
By the way here's a pic of Mihara-san...


He's the one on the left looking cooL!

He's a spitting image of Joong-Hoon Park, a famous South Korean Actor.

Check out the resemblance!!!

Weird huh??? Anyhow....

You gotta check out his awesome Korean flick "Nowhere to Hide". It has non-stop balls to the wall action, and ultra cool cinematography!!!

Anyways, these Miharas looks awesome with a pair of straight legged jeans. Or better yet with a pair of pass the knee length cargo shorts, or denim. Coupled with a pair of ankle socks, man does it look sick!!!


This is my car......I wish!!!
