Noel brought up a memory of the store called"The Vault." This made me think of "Comics and Cards."It was located at Walton and Sashabaw, basically on the border of C-town and Waterford. The guy who owned the joint was like the comic book store guy in the Simpsons only a little bit thinner.

My biggest memory of the place was putting an Isiah Thomas card on layaway. I'd go in there every week and put like 5 or 10 bucks towards the purchase of this collectors item. After I gave the wierdo my parents' money I would always look through the smokey glass of the counter, and stare at this basketball card. I'm not sure how much that card is worth today but I could never part ways with it.

As most of you probally already know Shemp use to have a huge crush on must of the blankets in our house. He expressed this love by ravishing(humping) them anytime someone held one up. This one time when Noel and myself had our friends over during high school it got out of hand. Some of Noel's friends were in my room holding up a blanket and Shemp started doing his thing, doggystyle. Shemp was really going to town. It got kind of loud and I believe it upset my Dad, I'm not sure if he was sleeping or not. My Dad came in and grabbed the blanket from Shemp and the dog proceded(this site needs spellcheck) to bite him. Well my pops wouldn't stand for this so he grab Shemp and basically tossed him down the stairs. All our buddies got silent for the rest of the night. My friends still tell this story, thinking it was one of the funniest moments at our house.

After workiing for the Palace for 4 years I've coom into contact with a lot of celebs and atheletes. They all are pretty much cool with everyone,except for one case in particular. I was working with a couple of my monkeys(these are the dudes that I worked with. They were called monkeys for many a reason which I can't go into because this story is about Prince) hauling a crap load of kegs. As we were passing through the loading dock area this man in a suit came running up to us. He was screaming saying that we had to get out of here. He didn't seem to care that we were hauling 12 barrels of beer(even though all prince fans drink Mike's hard lemonade). So this guy seemed important and we got out of the way. Imediatly after this limo comes hauling ass into the loading dock. I thought it might be Burt Reynolds or something, but it wasn't. It was Prince. Prince gets out and jumps on this golf cart real quick. Then about 5 bodyguards jump on the cart also like it was the freaking . . . Read More..

Every kid goes through a pyro phase right? And you know that if it involves something that you shouldn't o as a kid...me and Sean were all in. About the time that we found the anarchist's cookbook online ( I was in 7th grade and Sean in 5th) we had a lot of tricks up our sleeve.

We found this one entry about a liquid that burned hotter and longer than gasoline, it is called naepalm ( I botched the spelling there). So we added styrofoam to gasoline until it stopped dissolving and we had naepalm in an old can in the back of my dad's house.

we started by lighting small amounts and watching it burn until we accidentilly spilled the can of flammabile liquid all over the sidewalk.

This was no joke, next thing I knew there were flames on the sidewalk 10 feet tall! One of ran and grabbed the hose after the laughter dies down and we realized this was deep crap and the could catch on fire any minute. The water from the hose just seemed to spread the giant flames that were quickly out of . . . Read More..

One winter night when Kevin lived above a business in a sweet apartment in downtown rochester. He and a bunch of C-Town gangstas had me, Kev and Robin (my cousin) come over for a "flowing session".

For those of you who dont know what flowing is, just see the 8 mile movie about eminem.

So we all were at a bar that night hanging out and playing pool. The snow was coming down lightly and then we all went upstairs to their apartment.

Kevin had this buddy who was a white boy, but absolutely amazing at rapping. He even had rap CDs and stuff. And this guy could spit out rhymes like you wouldnt believe.

We had beats in the background and we all . . . Read More..
