The Poll

What if I stop this nonsense and start my radio own program?

I have been thinking about this idea for a very long time, particularly when I am on my way to work listening to my music and thinking about how many crappy radio programs are out there with indefinite airtime and fat commercial sponsors and yet, they all play the junk main stream music over and over again and when they talk, they are so full of it that make any sane (or insane for that matter) human being sick as a dog, so empty, so meaningless, pure trash! and I am thinking, hey, I consider myself pretty knowledgeable in the music, I mean, how many kids out there start "listening" to music at age 8? and how many of them start doing that by listening to "Lick it up"? Here, I feel indebted to pay a massive respect to my brother who has been my true Imam when it comes to music and who set the path to my salvation in his prophetical way. If I start my radio program and just play the music that I like best and respect most, I'm sure there are people out there who appreciate that, I should not be the only one whose just sick and tired of all these parasite like DJs everywhere filling our valuable airtime and I am not that novice neither, I have been DJ at several occasions (not to mention some to be "looking so precious!") and at the end, I have not heard a single complaint, everyone was happy with the outcome and enjoyed my taste!

So here the idea: Just my favorite music, no bullshit, that's it.

In order to test that, I put up this poll for whoever reads this blog, I know there aren't that many but anyway, just to see how it goes. I am going to encourage all the people who know me and know my taste to vote, it might as well be that nobody gives a tiny "f" which is OK because that would save my a lot of trouble, maybe I even start something like podcast or something should the demand turns out to be high...on vera!

Training day

is a movie made in 2oo1 played by Denzel Washington and Ethan Hawke. Hawke (Jake Hoyt) plays a LA police officer who wants to enroll in as a Narcotics officer. He has to go through approximately 24 hours of training from a veteran Narcotics officer named Alonzo Harris (Washington) who has a nasty reputation. As the day unfolds, Jake gets to know the real sides of Alonzo's questionable work ethic and ...

The story itself is kind of ordinary and at times cheesy. Small time drug dealers (Blacks and Hispanics), crooked cops, ghettos in LA, street life, gun fights etc. However, the most outstanding element in the movie is the academy winning acting of Washington which carries all the load. He portrays the crooked cop with such brilliance that looking at him and listening to his every word makes his character unforgettable. He puts such a sensation in each and every word along with facial expressions and body language that I for one, am just addicted to seeing him and listen to his rants over and over again. His arguments, his judgments and his presence not only make the character so real (not surreal!) but is depiction of an excellent actor. This acting has overshadowed everything else heavily in the movie, the presence of Hawke and other ingredients such as music and etc are just pale in the background and consequently unimportant.

Tom Hanks said that working with Washington in "Philadelphia" was like going to film school, everyday you learned something about acting from him.

An absolutely great performance by Zel.
