Most Mondays you’ll find me posting a Soulrific Podcast Show mix, but not this Monday. You see, since the passing of Michael Jackson, the internet has been flooded with hundreds of thousands of MJ tribute mixes, and I must admit, I almost posted one of my own…………..that was until I heard DJ Ayers‘ Radio Rub Michael Jackson Mix from 2008. It gets no better than this!
For those of you who own the Off The Wall (Special Edition) cd, you’ll find in this mix the familiar snippet of the original demo that Michael did of Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough, which blends so smoothly into the song that we know of today. I felt it’s only right to give DJ Ayers his props as well by sharing with those who may have missed it last year.
Now, I don’t have a tracklisting for this mix, but don’t let that stop you from getting your download on, because it’s a keeper! Share it with others and let’s keep the music alive.

I was cleaning out my bookcase of old VHS tapes on last night. Since I haven’t owned a vcr in years, I decided to toss the tapes, and in doing so, I ran across some recordings of old Yo!

So throw on your velour track suit, lace up your shell toe Adidas, toss on a Kangol hat and Cazal glasses and prepare to go on a journey, because this podcast is for you!

I woke up around 4am this morning by the strangest sound I’d ever heard in my life. What I thought had happened was that someone had left a crying baby on my doorstep.
As I listened from my bedroom window, the cries got eerier and were getting louder. Afraid that the baby may be harmed, I put on my robe and slippers, grabbed my gun (hey, I didn’t know who the hell was out there at that time of the morning), and walked outside to find out where the wailing was coming from.
Turns out it was not a baby, but a stray cat in heat. Good Lord, that cat sounded like a baby crying. After shooing the cat away, I could not get back to sleep because I kept hearing that mournful wail in my head.

My brother and I have always had pets. Even when we were infants, my parents have had dogs. You’ve seen me showing of pics off my dogs and I’ve even shared stories about them on this very blog, so you know how much I love dogs. Well, not quite 2 months ago, my brother’s beloved Chow Chow, Toko, passed away from congestive heart failure due to heart worms. Toko was 13 years old in human years.
Losing Toko was a hard blow to my brother, but he decided that he wanted another Chow Chow because he loves that breed of dog. So I accompanied him to the breeder on Monday and not only did my brother purchase a male Chow Chow, but he purchased one of its brothers as well.
The pups are 7 weeks old (same father, different mothers) and my brother has named them Maximus and Tiberius. Tough decision, because we started to name them Huey and Riley, in honor of our favorite Boondocks characters, but the Roman warrior names won out instead.
So without further ado, meet Maximus and Tiberius…….or Max and Ty, as I like to call them.
