PimpHop Participation – Your Excuse To Party

March 10th, 2010

par·tic·i·pa·tion

[pahr-tis-uh-pey-shuhn]

–noun
1.an act or instance of participating.

2.the fact of taking part, as in some action or attempt: participation in
a celebration.

3.a sharing, as in benefits or profits: participation in a pension plan.

–adjective
4.of or pertaining to a venture characterized by more than one person, bank, or company participating in risk or profit: a participation loan.

It’s Spring Break, and we’ve got the fix.
As the experts say, the best way to communicate a message is to draw it out on the chalk board, so here is what’s in store.

First and foremost, when it comes to PimpHop.com as a Lifestyles Publication, let the record reflect that we are here to offer you the opportunity to get off your a** and come play a part in the festivities,
as opposed to us showing you all the fun that we’re having without you, in an attempt to prove how fly we are.

Not to be frank, but rather, be Rylan with you, that is the popular trend as of late, although my belief is that flyness is ultimately determined by how effective a person or group is at helping to elevate other individuals, so be sure to refer to the PimpHop.com Manifesto to get it in writing and in a more so called appropriate language.

Secondly, over the years, when conducting various self inventories, it appears that in actuality, a party or the act of partying, is actually a mental and emotional state that can be initiated in most places during most times, with the correct stimulus.

As an example, if a person happens to work for a company and is often found in an office setting, certain occasions call for celebration and the office then transforms into a party spot, hence you have the term office party, and the same can be applied to any place and time with a shift in focus.

Lastly, participation is showing as being a part of the whole, which can only be accomplished through a common unified effort and cause, and although it will probably show as the most simple yet effective solution to many of the worlds problems, the most simple application of this principle known galaxy wide, is though the cause known as a party.

In American politics, as well as most democratic political systems, people form groups known as political parties, based on a similar viewpoints and ideals about life, yet since the fact that the vast majority of individuals simply seek satisfaction with varying paths to the destination, it will most likely show up in the form of a live party at some point in the near future.

We are in the process of launching our new campagins to help set the record staright, including but not limited to, photoshoot adventures, exciting PimpHop.com Produced events, and even online social networking capabilities which will allow you to have your very own
PimpHop.com Profile. Its the perfect excuse to party, compliments of yours truly

Can you picture it?

Stay Tuned.

This is a beverage that was recommended by a friend on one of our social networking channels. It most likely would be classified as a chick drink by most, as the friend who recommends it is in fact a female, along with 90 percent of the commenting group, so as usual, it and many other good things would surely be found here too… right?

Splash of cream
Fill with cola
Maraschino Cherry
Add ingredients to an ice-filled, tall glass. Stir gently with a swizzle stick or cocktail straw before serving. Garnish with cherry. If you cannot find DeKuyper® Cherry Brandy try DeKuyper® Cherry Pucker® for a sweet and sour twist.

iPads On Deck – Saturday April 3, 2010

March 8th, 2010

If you stayed tuned in to the show during the commercials, you may have had the opportunity to view the new iPad commercial which was first aired during the 2010 Academy Awards show.

I am curious as to whether or not there was some back scratching initiated behind the scenes as Apple CEO and Founder, Steve Jobs, is in fact a member of The Academy Of Motion Picture Arts And Sciences, in the Executive Branch as Chairman for Pixar Anamation Studios, and the current word around the web is that he was actually in attendance for the 2010 ceremonies at Kodak Theater.

Regardless, I couldn’t help but notice that one of the first things shown on the iPad Touch screen during the commercial, was a newspaper, as if one of the first orders of business for the device is to enable users to view online publications with the greatest of ease.

Perhaps its just the way my mind works, yet from what I see, this would actually create job opportunities as online publications just like traditional print publications do not create themselves nor operate without competent staff members, so this calls for a celebration, which I invite you to share in by viewing the full 20 minute product demo released by Apple on their YouTube Channel, which can be accessed at this link.

We’ve got work to do.

A different perspective to consider.

Are You Muy Importante?

March 8th, 2010

(T.G.I.M.) Thank God Its Monday!
The direction for Spring is forward, and since we tend to keep our own schedule here at Your Friendly Neighborhood PimpHop.com, we can get started today as there is really no time like the present.

This week, I have decided to devote some quality study time towards a concept that in my opinion, is of extreme importance, and the subject matter is just that.. importance.

im·por·tant

[im-pawr-tnt]

–adjective
1.of much or great significance or consequence: an important event in world history.

2.mattering much (usually fol. by to): details important to a fair decision.

3.entitled to more than ordinary consideration or notice: an important exception.

4.prominent or large: He played an important part in national politics.

5.of considerable influence or authority, as a person or position: an important scientist.

6.having social position or distinction, as a person or family: important guests.

Between us as friends, I believe that I have grown as weary of hearing me preach my speech as some of our readers are, so I will be making some forward movement adjustments to these entries by acting as more of a thought provoker and discussion initiator, encouraging you to
fill in your own blanks
.

From what I can see, there appears to be an all out subliminal declaration of war, in regards to gaining a sense and status of importance all over the place, whether on the television while Dancing With The Stars, or performing on American Idol looking to avoid receiving the boot from Heaven, or Hollywood as a more accurate term.

Of course there is this new hang out spot in the world that we currently find ourselves present in, known as the Internet, whether on a PC or Smartphone, so I will just take the initiative and get the ball rolling by working towards getting to the bottom of this word and what it actually entails for me personally while inviting you to do the same.

I have often heard it said in the language of the hood as follows.

You are only as important as you are USEFUL and NECESSARY.

Perhaps.
Lets investigate and have some fun while we are at it.

A different perspective to consider.

The Academy Of Motion Picture Arts And Sciences

March 7th, 2010

Its that time of the year again, known as Oscar time.
I decided to do something a bit different today by exploring some of the mysteries and interesting facts about the Academy Of Motion Picture Arts And Sciences, which is responsible for the highly coveted achievement award known as the Oscar.

First and foremost, although the official name of the award is The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) Award, it is unofficially known as the Oscar, even though there is no known factual reason as to why it is called by this name.

Secondly, there is a popular urban legend that claims that  the statue was molded in the form of a woman’s body and an actress named

Delores del Rio In Technicolor

Delores del Rio posed naked for the original creators.

Thirdly, the mysterious churchlike building in the header image of this post was the original headquarters for The Academy before it moved to a near by facility on Wilshire Blvd with a more updated corporate office feel. The location is now a library and research center that houses archives, and has somewhat of a top secret reading room entrance requirement that does not permit any form of notepads, pens, cameras, or cell phones, etc.

La Cienega & Beverly Blvds- Thirty Mile Zone Center Intersection

For whatever reason, durring the 60’s , some form of a studio zone as formed which required any work done by actors outside of this zone to be compensated for travel expenses. The zone was a radius of thirty miles, hence you have the name thirty mile zone, popularly known to you as TMZ.

The research center library is located within 2 miles of this location at
333 N La Cienega Blvd.

Back to reality, if thats what it really is, many mysterious and borderline paranormal activities have been reported to have happened to many famous and non famous individuals within this zone, and I have always had the same inclinations to investigate the reasons why.

There really is in fact an artistic and scientific component to pictures, in this particular case, motion pictures, by which an an Academy was established for study and exploration, so I invite any of our more creatively minded viewers to visit the official website for The Academy and see if you can discover any resources that you may find useful.

In closing, as stated in the past, with the introduction of this new digital media element being used, known as the Internet, we are pushing for an additional branch of emphasis to be added to the current 15 discipline categories of
The Academy, and perhaps its my imagination working overtime that explains why I feel that there is a connection regarding a near marathon of Tom Hanks movies on TNT on the evening before the Academy Awards ceremonies, while he is or was actually acting as The President of the Academy Of Motion Picture Arts And Sciences.

Forrest Gump was named after the founder of the Klu Klux Klan as an testament to the fact that some folks just do things for unexplainable reasons.
Then again, the first official Hollywood Motion Picture Blockbuster release was The Birth Of A Nation in 1915, regarding this very same subject matter.

The film Forrest Gump featured a man (played by Tom Hanks) named after Nathan Bedford Forrest, the first Imperial Wizard of the KKK. The film shows Nathan Bedford Forrest riding a horse in Klan regalia.
