If you follow me on the Tweeter you may have caught wind that I recently had surgery to get my timebomb of an appendix the fuck out of me. But if not….last Tuesday evening, what started out as a stomach ache and a self diagnosis of food poisoning actually turned into one of the most painful experiences for me ever. After violently puking and not being able to lay down I was rushed to the hospital feeling as though someone repeatedly took a knife to my stomach. As hours wen’t by and IV’s pumped meds through the veins, the catscan result came back as acute appendicitis. I was admitted to the OR and subsequently underwent a Laproscopic Appendectomy, which basically is a standard procedure to take out your appendix. Fortunately they let me out the next day as they said I bounced back quicker than most. Pilled up and sore as fuck I came home and have been on the road to recovery ever since. Feeling a little closer to being able working on tunes, I’ll be back to working on Gas Galaxy any day now. Thanks again to everyone who sent their well wishes. Lucky for me my discharge and The World Cup seemed to have happened almost simultaneously so as I’m making progress I’m happily watching. Since I haven’t used the “send your music” embed on Fairtilizer, I put it here so send your music via the widget below. You can also send links, pictures, or whatever you deem entertaining to this email yakballzmusic@gmail.com while I’m hemmed up.

I feel like all the rumors in the past have fucked with me but it seems to be real this time that Guru of Gang Starr has passed. A sad day for Hip Hop. He will be immortalized through his words, wisdom, and music. R.I.P. GURU

The dawn of the TUMBLR age is upon us! We’ve created a tumblr blog to work in sync with the yakballz.net mothership.

As you can see it already has previous posts from .net as we have been testing it’s functionality for a week prior. I really like the follower/following and re-blog capabilities; very much in the same vein as the Tweeter. So If you have a tumblr, feel free to follow to get the follow back, and re-blog the posts you’re into.

CHYEAHH

I guess everyone saw this coming. I really liked Lost Boys a lot, License to Drive, and Lucas when I was a kid. I also got hooked on The Two Corey’s reality TV show for the two seasons it was on. After his hay-day Corey Haim was always a trainwreck and an inevitable accident waiting to happen. Unfortunately it happened at 38.

what ever happened to the Glory Days when I pretended to be a goonie and Corey Haim had a license to drive but it went to an addiction – Glory Days Gone
