Well….back to the grind, folks. Hope you had a wonderful Memorial Day Weekend. (and lest we forget, nuff respect to those who have lost loved ones in the armed forces)

I just approved the comments that I missed over the weekend, and I’m loving all of the book recommendations in the previous post! I totally agree about Watchmen…amazing. And have y’all read Maus? really good. So I finished that Michael Crichton “Next” and it was perfect beach read. Just technical enough to be interesting, but still action-packed fast food. Does kind of make you wonder about all the genetic engineering that will happen in the future.

Anyhoo….I’ll reply to the book recs in the previous post…..for those who care about random unimportant rap beef. TI dismissed Shawty Lo’s yearbook-hunt to Sway.

Meanwhile….My boy Joie Manda announced on his blog (?!? Joie, I didnt know you had a blog! HA! Sign me up! But will there be tales from the Mexican spirit hut?) that he had mediated a tenuous truce between the two ATL-iens.

“Shawty LO & TIP have squashed that beef. I saw TIP yesterday and I spoke with Shawty Lo. It’s officialy over. See y’all in the A this summer. (When I’m not lampin in the Hamptons, weekends man…you know the rest)”***

And meanwhile, Shane from Smack sent this footage from Shawty’s “Foolish” video.

So is the volley of words (without consequences) over? Ehh…..I doubt it. One of them will drop a subliminal in a verse or something sometime after they see each other in a club or at that concert they’re both appearing on, and someone gives someone else the side eye, or someone in someone’s crew laughs too loudly at a totally unrelated joke and the other side misconstrues the laughter at being at their expense……the possibilities are endless. But this was already one of the most boring beefs of all time, so why not keep it consistent. Consistently….tepid.

***eww, south hampton. I pref Montauk. More handmade fudge, less manmade a–wipes.
