The Dankin Shout-Outs

By Jon Shoemaker ⋅ December 16, 2005 ⋅ Post a comment

Well, with the spirit of the holidays (since my lawyer told me I could face lawsuits if I say ‘Christmas’) I thought it be suiting that I do some shout outs to all my peeps who hang out with me online and offline. Have a happy holidays and don’t have Christmas unless you want to face legal repercussions.

Pushstart Wagon: We just finished a site redesign of the indie-rock band, Pushstart Wagon. Everything that I have heard from those guys has been awesome, so I recommend you give them a listen and buy a CD - a great stocking stuffer or gift if you are poor. Pushstart Wagon.

Quaker 2.0: The man who hands me money to hang out has started up a discussion of the Quaker identity presently in Christianity. I think he is calling for a revolution, and last time I talked to him, he told me to call him ‘Stalin.’ Whatever the case may be, keep on eye on Quaker 2.0: The Revolution.

Slang Flashcards: Because Rebecca celebrates what many like to call “Christmas,” she gave me an early gift which out-matches all that I have gotten this year: comprehensive Slang Flashcards. Thanks to these flashcards, I am slowly learning dank new words that will allow me to kick it with my homies in the crib, yo. I have learned that I am a vapor, and hopefully it will get me a new whip. I ain’t no wanksta, I am all down on the ish, yo. Thanks Rebecca, my life in C-Town is a little easier.

I think three items is all you need for a list to be a list. That or I do as little as possible to get by. Regardless, I am going to go play a mean game of urban frisbee golf.

  1. Welcome playa! I might have to gank those cards from you next time I see you. Maybe we can parlay your new found knowledge into a prominent career in hip-hop. Give something back to all your peeps in the streets. It’s true Jon you aint no wanksta. JON IS THE ISH!

  2. Steve from Pushstart Wagon used to kind of be my teacher in 7th grade! Mr. Guiles is a neat guy. I’ll have to listen to their music now that I know he’s in the band.

  3. Yeah, I found that out because he was Kris’ teacher too. Who thought teachers have a life outside of school?

  5. Thanks for the shout-out… employee. The check is in the mail.

    Also - for my sake, never use your new-found slang knowledge around my ‘hood. Things just ain’t the same in El Monte.
