Alpha Epsion Pi @ USC Presents... Nas



You heard me right. April 3rd, 2009. With all proceeds benefiting The American Cancer Society and Relay for Life, Alpha Epsilon Pi (AEPi) at the University of Southern California will be hosting a hip-hop festival with Nas as headliner. This is no rumor, contract has been signed and paid. That's right, one of hip-hop's biggest legends will be rippin on a stage at my fraturnity! The festival has also been rumored to feature KiD CuDi, DJ AM, the notorious HarryMack, and others! Tickets will be available shortly for those interested in coming. Once again, all proceeds go to The American Cancer Society and Relay for Life. Will be the sickest thing ever.

P.S. All you motherfuckas from back home are welcome to fly out for the weekend haha.

Late Night with Jimmy Fallon



So last night was the premiere of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and the first thing I want to recognize is how fucking cool it is that The Roots are his house band! I think it's a great step for hip-hop having a band like The Roots on a mainstream television program. However, according to ?uestlove (member of The Roots), the band has stopped touring to be on the show which is very, very unfortunate and hopefully not the case. Anyways, the show had special guests Robert DeNiro (looks like he's getting old but who cares...he's Robert DeNiro), Justin Timberlake, and Van Morrison and featured Jimmy slowjamming the news, audience members licking things to aquire $10 (a pretty cute girl licks a scanner...great way to get off on a Monday night), and Justin Timberlake doing hysterical impressions of John Mayer and Michael McDonald. A good start for Jimmy but he has to live up to the outragous hillarity of Conan. You can watch the whole show on hulu.com! JFLACK APPROVES!

A Step in the Right Direction


Now that Obama has stepped into office shit seems to be going crazy in this country, it seems that society is revisiting some laws and regulations to find a way to boost the economy. It is pretty obvious that the answer to saving our economy lies not in your wallet but in your bong: that's right, weed. Medical marijuana seems to be succeeding here in California with the exception of the DEA occasionally shutting down dispensaries and overriding Proposition 215 (the exemption of criminal penalties for the medical use of marijuana in California). Prop 215 allows you to gain a prescription/club card for marijuana from a doctor ($150 from a "pot doc"), go to one of the hundreds of marijuana dispensaries with your card, and hand select your medication in various qualities (a mere $55 for the finest OG in all the land) and forms (edibles, pills, cremes, or just the normal plant). The news that the DEA is ending raids on marijuana dispensaries is a great step towards legalization. To read the entire article from MSNBC on the raids click the link provided:

DEA to End Medical Marijuana Raids

In that article is a fact that I didn't know about our country. It turns out that "thirteen states allow the cultivation, sale and use of medical marijuana." WHAT!?! Are you kidding me!? 13 states are allowed to fucking deal with weed. It seems quite falty to me that in a place like Maryland or Arizona (where possession is a felony) you can literally get jail time for having a gram of marijuana on you or even near you and then you go to a place like California and be carrying an eigth and not even be punished! Not even arrested! This is a plant. A plant less harmful than alcohol but has been made to look like the worst thing you could possibly do by the government (see http://www.abovetheinfluence.com/the-ads/). But legalization would be a big step and might not even be the best solution for those who have fallen in love with Mary Jane. If it was legalized it would most likely be monitered and taxed like cigarettes making it susceptible to unhealthy chemicals and high prices. This however may be what our economy is looking for. Even the California Legislator is on board! He introduced a bill to legalize marijuana in California claiming that it would provide over $1 billion anually for the state that is desperately in need of economic support. Wanna read more about this? Check the link:

California Legislator Sees Benefit in Legalizing Pot

To summarize:
1) Our economy is fucked and weed is the only thing that can save it (how's that for a Stimulus Package)
2) The DEA is stopping raids on medical MJ...a move in the right direction!
3) Surprisingly 13 states are chill with Marijuana - COOL! Vacation spots...MUST.
4) California is moving to legalize...good plan.

Personally, I would love to see MJ legalized in the next 8 years. Let's see what Obama can really do. Marijuana legalization?: JFLACK APPROVES.

Introduction


Well Ladies and Gentleman,
It's finally happening. I tried to fight it, but it seems that I'm giving in to the peer pressure put on me by the merciless online community and I am starting a blog of my own. But starting a blog is no easy task! I had a lot of trouble figuring out what I would be talking about in this blog and went to my friend and fellow blogger WILLBROCHILL17. We quickly brainstormed all of my interests and passions in life (food, music, movies, video games sports, drugs, women, entertaining viral videos, pretty much any show on the Discovery Channel, etc.) and decided that I should just do a broad review of all things that I care about or at least have an opinion on! I then thought, "Wow! No one is going to read this. Who gives a shit? Oh well, might as well just do it so you can say you have a blog and maybe even get pussy for it!" And then, at 3:50 pm PST on March 1st, "The JFlack Review" was born (the bris is scheduled for next Thursday and well be performed by Rabbi Weinstein). So whether or not the information presented on this blog is considered "genius" or "the most retarded stuff I've ever read" just know that I do this out of love. That's right. I love you.
