Radio Raheem's search for Infinite Wisdom

2008, a contradictory odyssey

2008-01-10T16:00:00.000+11:00

So the year 2008 has finally come, and boy has it been eventful in Raheem's life

Event number 1: nothing lasts forever

Well as you know (unless you dont actually read the posts jsut like to look at the background and pictures) I have been going out with my significant other for a year and a half. WAIT... had been going out with my significant other for a year and a half. Yes, its true, we broke up, and if you really want to know why, id tell ya but it may eb a little too personal for me to state on this blog

WAIT A SECOND, my anonymitiy has been a major factor of this blog so therefore it doesnt make anything personal, hence i can tell you

Everyone always thought that I would be the one to fudge up our relationship . Well i proved you wrong MUAHAHAHA (and even proved myself wrong by not fugding things up which is a first)

Here is the thing, 'love' is an abstract term which is way too hard to describe and different in each and every situation.

In my situation, to describe the word 'love' i would have to describe what i believe is the most attractive part of the opposite sex and NO that does not include ass/tits/legs ( yes, thats right Susan Brownmiller, not all men think about sex all the time).

Any way gettin bak on topic, the most attractive part to me of a female body is the EYES. It is said that eyes are the gateway to a person's soul, and therefore love to me is not kissing on the beach, not sharing a delicate french cusine with a bottle of champagne, not having sex (although that is REALLY good), but simply the ability to gaze into each others 'loving' eyes and realize nothing else matters.

So whats this got to do with anything? My ex-significant other started to like someone else. LAME. Funny thing is tho, if she came back i wouldnt give a shit about it. What kept me up all those restless nights, and what i generally start to thing about when ever i get lonely, is that i dont have any1 that i can share my form of 'love' with anymore and its probably sonds really lame but i still really do miss and care about her. Actually take that back, it does sound really effn lame but i aint ashamed about it lol

so how did i start my beginning of 2008? either crying, drawing, writing, getting high/drunk, or finally bottling up my emotions and then taking them out on Artifical Character with stupid A.I. on Assasins Creed/Uncharted

Event number 2: something lasts forever

YES i realize this event is a direct contradiction to the first event but allow me to explain.

I got a tattoo.

AND no i didnt get a mutherfucking g-unit gangster bro tattoo or chinese writing/dragon (talk about individuality.

I got a tattoo of a heart and infinite sign on my left upper wrist.

What does it symbolise you ask?

the heart symbolises Love.

the infinite sign is a particular ideology i have been following for the greater proportion of my life. What does it mean?

unlimited or unmeasurable in extent of space, duration of time, etc.: the infinite nature of outer space.

unbounded or unlimited; boundless; endless:

people say that there is no such thing as 'love' and if there was such a thing it would be classified as a form of madness
people also say that nothing can last forever its impossible (besides mathematicians)

Therefore when merging these two particular ideologies together as well as what people say against them, the message given is that "love is the only thing that can be classified infinite as no one can say whether it exists or not".

Why get it on my left wrist ?
well i didnt want to get it on my bak cos i wouldnt be able to see it and that be gay, neither on my chest cos it sill hard to see and i mite get fat and it'll fade n go wierd. I put it on my left wrist so, i can actualy see it everyday, everymorning, and it sounds wierd but when i see it, it also symbolises hope to me.

When i told the lady i wanted to get a tatoo there she told me to get it on my fore arm cos apparently thats tthe worst place to get it as it canes. I said FUK that to her lol i was be able to hide it with a watch..

What does it feel like getting a tattoo? well i think the pain is psychological more so than actual pain. Its like, i went into the tattoo parlor expecting it not to hurt at all and it didnt actually hurt much really, it felt like a sharp dagger dragging through my skin and then my adrenalin kicked in and everything was alright! (wait that description makes it sound like it really hurts o.O)

Event number 3: Gota make this idea last forever

Me and my friends started a band.. AND YES we are gona be the biggest thing since sliced chocolate fairy bread with whipped cream and fried in olive oil

So far we got mr p daddy on rhythm/ keyboard/bass/vocals , sir smoke alot on lead/rhythm, fai on drums, and me vocals/bass/rhythm. What does that mean? No1 actually knows what they want to do yet and i dont mind doing watever so long as i can write.

And finally EVENT number 4: This will definatly not last forever but enjoy it while you can!

My family got a new kitten which is named Figaro, and no minnie i did not copy your sisters cats name lol. Its called Figaro because it is exactly like that cat Pinocchio only grey.

All in all, from the past two weeks have given me the idea that this year is gona be totally random and full of contradictions AND FUK do i hope i have gone through the worst of it already.. AND THATS the Quadruple TRUTH RUTH!!

Merry Christmas

2007-12-25T07:07:00.000+11:00

Merry Xmas Y'all

and to that special sum1 here is what i got for you (but every1 go watch it)!

Gota get my game BACK together

2007-12-15T19:46:00.000+11:00

WAKE UP WAKE UP WAKE UP everybody, and how are you all doing in your euphoric cyberspace state where everything goes and anything can be said.. such as:

" I am the "Monster" — "Beelzebub" — the chubby behemouth. I love to hunt. Prowling the streets looking for fair game — tasty meat."

You see, if i was to attend a French Cheese party, and i pulled out a comment on the lines of that, people would get rather distressed and i would probably be shot or sent to a mental asylum on the account that people would think i am David Richard Berkowitz aka the Son of Sam.

Anyways here comes the million dollar question:
Why the hell did Radio Raheem take soo long to post (3 weeks)?

Answer:
Cos Radio Raheem has been procrastinating like a MoFo and working on a flash movie that will be posted eventually... AND ANYWAY that was not the right question to ask.. maybe YOU should have asked What made Radio Raheem want to come bak and post?

Answer #2:
Cos Radio Raheem has encountered a vast majority of different experiences over the last few weeks. I was gona post them now and change the dates to leave it in a chronological order, but eff that.. i aint planing to be deceitful!

SO here it goes issue number 1: Rutger Hauer

Well me n my friend, as in real life friends not cyberspace friends, went to go see one of the greatest, most avant-garde movies in the world by director RIDLEY SCOTT.

and that movie was..

..

BLADE RUNNER THE FINAL CUT

if you dont know what that movie is, or do but have never seen it, you really should punch your self in the nuts (or matching genitalia). Anyways, so on this special screening of the movie at Greater Union Cinema's on George Street Sydney, guess who we actually meet.. RUTGER muther effn HAUER

yeah.. i didnt know who he was eitha, but let me tell you, that was the first time i was EVER starstruck.. and thats a fair big thing for me cos i have met alot of celebrities that i really didnt think twice about going to talk to i.e. j wess, the dudes from bone thugs, selwyn lol, savage, guys from AND1, i saw beyonce at Myers so not sure if that counts, and 'course Russel Kilby

in retrospect, getting starstruck of an android (or replicant for all you die hard Runner fans) is kinda/pretty/very weird but yeah, he was a very nice dude as in i had a one on one conversation with him bout how shit permanent markers were, and he did sign my bag aswell EFF YEAH.

also, for all the questions on your mind, and as well as every1 elses, has RUTGER HAUER been in any other major films? YES, but really really small parts: Batman Begins, the asshole businessman, Sin City the priest who lets Elijah Wood eat people, Goal II some baron thing, and Alias/Buffy a few shows. EVEN he said everything went downhill after Blade Runner

Issue Number 2: Kimba versus Simba

So we are all drenched and at the Art Gallery when we decide to head over to the gift section. On the way, PoopMuffin aka Bridezilla spots the dvd section. In this dvd section she spots "Kimba the White Lion" DVD. She than points it out to me and states, " What a cheap asain rip off of the Lion King!"

That was the final straw

The pressure was on to me

I knew i was gona have to take the situation outside and do the bare knuckle dance toe to toe no matter what sex she was

For all you uneducated fools who dont know KIMBA was a 1960's anime cartoon created by the one and only Osamu Tezuka. The cartoon recieved international fame and was basically about the adventures of a rare White Lion who became king of the Jungle. The anime as well as manga is still being updated and released to this day, and in 1994 Disney decided to invest on this capital by stealing the storyline and character for the movie THE LION KING

Disney obviously denied everything saying they didnt know anything, but early stills of the film show Simba being a white lion, and Matthew Broderick even stated Disney officials said he was going to be the voice for a REMAKE of KIMBA THE WHITE LION

Bak in Saudi Arabia i used to watch this show everyday and by stupid Bridezilla's not taking advantage of cartoon history, REALLY makes me MAD!

Issue Number 3: I spent more money than I saved up

Yes, for all you STROKES fans, that is a direct quote from the song Barely Legal, and yes it has to do with the fact that the Phantom Menace of Christmas is dawning upon us

Let me clear one thing folks, people always cum up to me (who is a muslim) asking if we celebrate Christmas. The answer for the final time is YES... why you ask? because muslims are greedy and want presents? NO.. Believe it or not, actually do believe it, Muslims follow Jesus Christ as well (and if you didnt know Jesus is the man behind the date, not Santa). The only difference is we do not believe that Jesus died on the cross, therefore eliminating Easter for us!

Anyways, Xmas is hell to me, and funnily enough if you rearrange the letters of the name Santa its spells SATAN. DUH DUH DUHHHH!!!!!!!! So yeah i had all these funds allocated for Xmas and guess what.. I run out and have to buy stuff on my credit card. LAME!

Another thing, YES i am a male, and yes i buy presents, and mite i add good ones. Most of the known male population ask the person receiving the present what they want, and get exactly that; or they just give the person money, THATS LAME. Presents are supposed to mean something and by skipping out on the surprise factor, you leave the person happy but with the slight impression that the present was a real half assed attempt no matter how much it costs. Be creative and innovative, base ur presents on a personal joke, or just get something uno that person will adore. My gifts given out over the ages include a pearl necklace WINK WINK (ask for in person for the story), a thomas the tank engine train, a stolen left high heel, and finally a sprakly engraved ring (very sentimental)

Issue Number 4: My Eternal bestfriendship

Yes the verdict is out, and this time its final. EMILY has now become my eternal best friend. What this means is that now I have to buy her an actual good bday present, have many different obligations to her, am her shoulder to lean on, and finally fill her in on evry little factor of my life. In layman's terms, the eternal bestfriendship that exists in between us is like the BATsignal is to Batman.

how did we reach this connection? A year of effn around, a pretty hard come down, and the fact the she now owns mine and toms ANAL VIRGINITY

So yeah i hope i have informed and provided new insight for all you blog readers out there, and have a great and wonderful day, and thats the QUADRIPLE TRIPLE truth, RUTH !!!

Assassins Creed and the implication of Islam vs Christianity

2007-11-22T17:36:00.000+11:00

If you didnt know, like Mr Terms and Conditions, i am a gamer aswell. Only difference between us tho is I am more into ps3 rather than Xbox but that doesn't change anything (lol ps3 is a recognised spell checker word and Xbox isnt MUAHAHAHHA)

Anyways, yesterday Assassins Creed came out for both consoles, and obviously i got for ps3 seeing as tho none of the games this year so far, are using the ps3s full potential.

What can i say about this game? EFFN sweet!

What this game about? You are Altair, an Assassin in Jerusalem 1191. Jerusalem and its surrounding nations are being currently going through the third wave of the Crusades.

Anyway, this post is not here to advertise the game but to talk about its implications and how the general public are reacting to this.

First of all, before the game even starts, there is a message basically stating something like:

The creators of this game do not intend to offend, and come from different, multicultural backgrounds and have many different religions and beliefs.

I found this little disclaimer interesting because generally in games there is a little blurb stating stuff like 'Dont try this at home' or 'beware: lots of gore'

Anyways when you get into the game, and your talking to locals around the area, people start saying stuff like 'Peace be upon you'. Me being a follower of Islam found this very interesting as this is usually an Arabic Muslim saying. This fact, as well as the fact that the word 'assassin' comes from the Arabic word 'Hashshashin', and finally the main characters full name Altair Ibn La-Ahad; prompted me to hit the online message boards and forums because, lets face it, American's, and some other categories that I shall not name, arn't the most welcoming people, especially to this specific culture/religion .

And this is what I found:

"I also read in EGM (I think) that the assassin in Assassin's Creed is a Muslim...I wonder how people will feel about that game after knowing that... (following post) "Assasin's creed" is not a person, so how could he or she be a person. And assuming that the "Assasin" is muslim, do you want people to start hating the game already?"

"Its [Assasins Creed] a blatant piece of anti christian propaganda. Ban this filth! (following post) they are dinosaur bones that have been buried beneath layers of rock. over many many years the bones are replaced by rock and thats a fossil. why would you need god to explain it to you. go to a library. (following post) To be honest though I'd prefer if the main character was natural and not muslim (or Christian) but there you go."

" If you don't believe me, just look it up on the XBOX 360 Forum for the game. The character is Muslim and has to kill Christians during the 3rd Crusade.

Liberalism poisons this game like it's trying to poison the country. Christianity is free to be attacked, but all others are in a protected class.
Too bad... I was looking forward to this game. Ah well, plenty of other cool games out there.
Vote Republican 2008! We are not a death culture! God, Family, Country! Not: Islam, Lesbians, and Illegal Aliens!"

DANG.. "Islam, Lesbians, and Illegal Aliens" what a category!

Before I start giving you my thoughts and views of this topic lets establish 1 point:

Historically, 'hashshashins' did not fight or kill many crusaders, or Christians at all, they mainly killed muslims. This is scenario is also duplicated in the game to an extent, i.e. you fight and kill Muslims and Christains, so I don't know what the eff people are ranting on about

What do I think about this?

TIME-OUT! This is a game.. a game that people play. When people play something like 'Grand Theft Auto' or 'Resident Evil', gamers do not get phased much about the ultra violence. Assassins Creed does contain the same violence and gore with a little touch of 'implied religion'.What needs to be realised that when the creators of this game made this game they did not intend this game to be linked or related with ANY religion. They just wanted to write a game with a different, and compelling story (which might I add, did work!) I am not passing any judgements on this subject but this in actual fact is the same scenario, so why get all high and mighty about this?

FINAL THOUGHTS:

I certainly do not agree with many of these posts and find them rather racist for no apparent reason , but hey, thats freedom of speech for ya ! In my own opinion ALL religions have both their good points, as well as their bad points (yes, that includes scientology), and when people become closed to other people's beliefs, and/or 'fundamentalistic', it works in a very negative way as it goes against what their actual religion states... and thats the TRUTH, RUTH!

Tales from the Dub Gee prt 2. the return of the kleptomaniacs

2007-11-19T11:14:00.000+11:00

Look, i realized i haven't posted squat in a while, but, I have a good reason. In has become a prominent fact that many bloggers write about stuff that involves popular culture as well as the mainstream media. I have tried to stay away from this movement for 1 main reason:

I don't have the time or the patience to watch and research into bands or tv shows because it really bores me. Then if i started to post and give my thoughts and views about stuff, ppl would and will always say i have gotten my facts wrong cos i don't really know much bout ne thing

Anyways, i thought i would return to this original post of Tales from the Dub Gee because ppl seemed to find it interesting, as well as another experience has affected the course of my life

YESTERDAY, was Sunday. Weather was up the ying-yang and massive amounts of people were flocking to the beach. Me and my significant other, decided to follow the crowd and head down to the beach. After that my significant other was going to go grocery shopping as her parent was in Sydney.

We arrived at the beach around 1230pm and the sun was high (but not at its peak due to daylight savings in Australia). We headed down to our normal side of the beach, which was surprisingly crowded as most of the people usually swim in between the flags at the other end of the beach. After tanning and sleeping for a while, we decided to head into the water to have a quick dip. After being in the water for about half an hour, I realized that a rip was forming and we would have to go bak on to the beach for a while until the current died down.

When we got back to our towels and bags on the beach we had notcied a few more people had come down: a couple of surfies, a 'lad' and a 'ladette', and finally and old, obese drunk guy who was just there sipping his goon and checking out the scene (which means perving on girls). This group of people didnt really intimidate us as **l**n*o** and pretty much everywhere these days are full of perverts, lads and surfies.

Now for you people who are from overseas or foriegn to the subculture of 'lads' here is a quick rundown of them and how to notice them

Wear striped polo tops or Nautica tops
Have caps, often white caps
Wear shorts, no matter what the season or what the temperature
Are often white and skinny
Are often from the western suburbs of Sydney and constantly spreading
Like to graffitti
Are aggressive and often look for fights
Hang out in gangs and support each other if a fight begins

(picture & description taken from this page)

Neways so this 'lad', and this 'ladette' are on the beach when my significant other starts to notice that they are looking at us at increasingly regular intervals. At the time she thinks nothing of it. Another suprisingly awkard factor is that this 'ladette' is sunbaking on the beach DEH DEH DERRR in her BRA! Talk about indecency. The time is 1:20 now and I notice that the tide has died down. We decide to go down into the water now. As we leave my significant other stops and says 'I hope my stuff doesn't get stolen' jokingly. I replied there enough people around here to do sumtin if anything happened and we continue on into the beach.. BAD MOVE jeez i shoulda remembered at that time, that in this day and age no1 gives a shit about each other.

WE come back from a nice swim and my significant other freezes. 'Where the FUCK is my bag' she says n starts going into hysterics due from shock. I go talk to the surfie couple next to us, didnt notice anything (funny tho, they weere practically right besides us). I speak to the drunk guy. Oh, i saw that boy take it about 5 minutes ago.

Words in my head, "WHY THE FUDGE DIDNT YOU DO NE THING YOU SMELLY OLD BASTARD"

What did they end up stealing off my significant other? Her clothes, her bag, her wallet, her grocery money, her phone, her sun screen, HOUSE KEYS, sunglasses, and earrings. Talk bout good haulage, but seriously, why the funk do it for?

So after scanning all the bus stops and reporting to the cop station, what do we get out of it? NOTHING. Basically, the fuzz laughed, didn't want to report ne thing, and informed us of this pointless anecdote which goes something like this

"One day,one of my friends, you wouldn't know them, got all their pot plants stolen. They went to Dapto markets the next day and saw this women selling them. My friend said, 'those are my pot plants'. The seller then replies, 'No they are not, they are mine!' and then the friend sticks his hand into the pot plant and pulls out his house key"

hows that for a kick in the nuts for ya Russell

Anyways alot of stress has been caused over this incident and I would just like to ask why do people do shit liek this for? I mean some people aswell as academics argue that the crime rate increases during the hot weather, others say that crime rate increases parrallel to the unemployment rate , but does it really make any sense to actually go and steal something from another person jsut because you need a lil money, or you are jelouse of something they have.

Only shit like this can be pulled off in **l**n*o**, and that is the TRUTH, RUTH!!

What have YOU done more recently, Masterbated or gone 10 Pin Bowling?

2007-11-12T21:07:00.000+11:00

So the day was Monday, and yes it was slow but not dull. Me, being still tired as shit from a crazy weekend was tryna catch up on sum shut eye during class. First subject of the day, communication environment, and what did we learn about? NORTH KOREA!

Now if you dont know ne thing about N.K. prepare to learn some wisdom. North Korea has definatly one of the strangest social/political/economical living conditions in the world (I say strangest because I dont really want to pass judgement on something i dont know) Basically, a citizen has no rights, can get shot, sentenced to jail, sent to a concentration camp, at any time possible for any reason officals see fit, and usually that reason is for disrespecting their current leader Kim Jong-Ill or his father, 'the eternal president of the republic' Kim Il-sung. What has happend is due to the totalitarian stranglehold this royal family has on its country, means that its people cant speak, eat, or even shit without getting permission to do so first. It has been said that this country has voided many common human rights and this can be seen as the country has high statistical rates of torture, starvation, rape, murder, medical experimentation, forced labour, and forced abortions.

On the brighter side though, this country has no light and a 'killer' child camp.

Anyways seeing this half asleep was a bit of a trip, so later on that day, me and the 5th Base Brothers decided to rewrite the 10 Commandments in order of their most relevance to get our mind of this nonsense. Basically, we rewrote the ten commandments not to offend, but to inform and state what we believe what matters most in any religion. And this is how it goes:

Thou shalt not kill
Thou shalt not steal
Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour
Thou shalt not commit adultery
Honour thy MOTHER and thy Father (feminist movements)
Thou shat not conve anything that is thy neighbour
Thou shalt not take the name of thy lord thy god in Vain
Thou shalt not make unto thee graven images
Thou shalt have no other gods before me
Remember the sabbath, to keep it holy

Rewriting this made me think of the infamous BLACK SPOT from Robert Louis Stevenson book Treasure Island. Basically if a pirate gave his neighbour and fellow pirate a black spot would mean that if they would have a curse placed on them as they have mad a foul move. If this black spot was on a page of the bible however, it would mean that the person or pirate that it was handed to was sentenced to DEATH.

Some how talking of this topic lead to the most infamous and confronting topic of the day that all you readers have been eager to read, "What have you done more recently, masterbated or gone 10 Pin Bowling?"

This topic arose from a conversation me and the 5th Base Brothers participated in while were supposed to be learning about Healthcare systems in regards to Marxism. When this question is asked face to face to a person the first thing they do is think of their REAL awnser. Then after a split second the person tries to think of what the normal answer and what every1 would else would say because face it, nobody WANTS to be ridiculed and made fun of being different. After this moment has passed they usually confuse themselves as the answer that is more common to them maybe differnt, and ask what every1 else has said before they give their own answer. WHAT this does for the viewer and/or the person who asks this question is give a foliage of funny facials and also gives that person the power of the conversation as the respondent usually gets 'weirded out' and defensive. btw, Bride-zilla stated if your answer was 10 pin bowling then your a liar, i dont either agree or disagree with this statement.

SO my question is to all my blog readers is what have YOU done more recently. Remember due to this being an online question your anonymity is working in your favor

What has today taught me? GET more sleep, and that is the TRUTH, RUTH!!

Tales from the Dub Gee, YEAH BOIII

2007-11-08T10:01:00.000+11:00

MORNING peeeooopppllleeee, and how are you? and hope your having a grande day

The topic of today is the place i live.

If you didnt already know (which means you dont know my true identity) I live in a small town outside of Sydney. The place is called **l**n*o** and its not actually a town, its more of a town that disguises itself as a city. Its actually not that far from the city (bout 50min drive/1hr 15 train) but wen you tell people from the city that you live there, people think its further away from there than Mexico. Anyways whats the town like? well ill turn your attention over to Lou Reed and John Cale to inform you...

So yeah, i hope that song was informing and motivational. Anyways what separates this small town from any other small town? NOTHING except for 1 substantial and crucial factor. Small towns are usually associated with predominantly white redneck hics. **l**n*o** is full of all different types of cultures and and paths of life. This is a positive for the town, but one must realise when journeying into this town even though there are all these different people, they still have redneck hic veiws and maintalities of life. Ethnic groups are always fighting over dumb shit and there parents are always tlaking about how good life is and was back at their home countries and how bad this country is. Get an effn grip, the only reason its shit out here and better over there is because every1 over there shares the same thoughts and values and here every1 thinks they are better than any1 else. And yeah, id also like to note that this maintality doesnt apply to all people, just the vast majority

To illustrate my point id like to give you a few short anecdotes from my life:

When i came here from Saudi (used to live there) people said i should change my first name to George
I was a social outcast from my primary school cos i thought the Baha Men were lame
I was a social outcast from my high school cos i thought Limp Bizkit were worse than the Baha Men
I was the only known and recognized person that was not from Anglo Saxon decent in my first high school year and after the events of 9/11 i thought id better get the eff out seeing tho my name was obviously muslim ( ie i got told to go back to Afghanistan by some older kid who singled me out, i thought id better not inform him that id never been there)
Moved into a second high school were all the racial group hung only to themselves (ie Turkey Corner) and i didnt really fit in a category
A Serbian kid informed me to the 'positive sides of beating your wife'
A kebab shop guy informed me that there was gona be a huge fight at Cronulla the next day, we thought he was full of shit. he sure proved us wrong
we got started on by a group of 40yr old men on Australia day (post-Cronulla) as we were walkin into an ice creamery

**l**n*o** is not all that bad tho, is got sum killer beaches. I mean i hate goin bondi n cronulla n stuff compared to **l**n*o**. You wana know why? **l**n*o** beach is practically deserted (the place we go, that is) except for in summertime, when topless uni students come... not that i look, but if thats ur thing then come on down!

Anyway last saturday nite, the 3rd, i went out to my gf/friends/bf 18th bday. He is Greeek so party was at the Greek church.He is a good kid and the place being such a small town meant that i actually a fair amount of people who were going. Free drinks, free food, what more can i say? There were a few unwanted guests who came in n tried to cause trouble, but they got kikd to the curb so that ended up alright. Anyways, about parties, you know when is that special time when ur supposed to leave and end the note on a positive? Me n my significant other did that. After we left, one of his relatives, as in older relatives, got her purse stolen wih apparently $6K inside it.. all the girls got depressed and started crying and all the guys got pumped and ready to haul ass. Good thing we left at the right time!

As we were walking out tho, the wierdest thing happend. I used to be friends with this dude n close friends mite i add. Everythin was goin sweet til he started doggin me to hang round one of my ex's. I didnt mind that, but wat started to happen is he started to lie to me about it, and lie about it constantly. This wasnt that cool n e more. I confronted him bout it, then he started to lie mroe and blame my current significant other. Then we never spoke again. Anyways after we left this party, we walked to a cross section and saw all these police and ambulances. As we came closer we realised what had happend and it came as a shock... My ex friend thing... had ... hit.. two pedestrians.. with his car. It was another LEFT Hand of HATE or RIGHT Hand of LOVE moment. I chose the right hand of love and ask if he was alright, luckily the cops had been nice and let him off with a fine and loss of license, he was facing alot more.TALK ABOUT AN EFFN COINCIDENCE as in walking out at the right time

This situation and situations like this can only be occur in a small town and i hope i have informed you to what the **l**n*o** is like, and that is the TRUTH, RUTH!

Mothership Reconnection and the Hostility Between Strangers

2007-11-02T21:20:00.000+11:00

Today was one long ass day, not because of the weather, not because of class/work, but because of small, trivial dilemmas that crossed my path on my road to Infinite Wisdom.

First things first, i woke up too damn early because i had a certain uneasy feeling through the whole nite which prevented me from sleeping. Anyways had to walk to the trainstation which is about 1/2 an hour away from mine and since i dont actually live in Sydney, but an outer suburb, missing a train to skoo means that my whole plans for the day have gone to hell. Anyways on the way to the trainstation i was half asleep and i saw this girl literally about half my size (me being 6ft sumtn) walking past me. Anyway i wouldnt really point this factor out or anything in a blog (in fact the banality of this subject is killing me typing it) but this lady was on speed or sumtin. She was walking soooooooo fast! And me being half asleep saw this situation as a competition of my man/long-leg hood. I started out taking small quick steps, then a progressed on the long jump like strides, and so forth till i ended up sprinting and yet this stranger was STILL in front of me. I felt so ashamed and disgraced until i fell asleep on the train to the city

The day went on, hour by hour, and the topic of the day was students favorite blogs.. I found out you can tell alot about a person by the blogs they like and pardon the sexism, but being in a class full of female teenagers/young adults made everything relate to eitha fashion or celebrity gossip.. DANG after I finshed my presentation on boingboing.net i realized a few of my lady friends were whispering about sometin.. it seemed edgy and stimulating so naturally i wanted in. Anna said she would fill me in, and at break she told me that our teacher might be brothers with one of the guys from The CHURCH!! (to read more consult www.emorley.blogspot.com and yes Russell im only putting this in to get extra marks.... JOKES) Anyway during our break we were excited to get back to class to ask our teacher if this rumour was true when we crossed paths with the wierdest guy on earth, in an ELEVATOR! DUH DUH DEHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

So we are waiting for an elevator and basically only heading to the level above us (yes we are lazy). An elevator comes but it is going down to them bottom floor (which is one level below) and there is nobody in it. I decide that we should get on this elevator as we wont be wasting anytime and everybody follows me (sheeps). Anyways we are in this elevator goin to bottom level and as a joke i decide to press all the level buttons as it wont shorten our trip anyways (simple and childish prank and yes you can use this trick to impress your friends). We arrive at the same level we started on and these 2 Asains got on as well as this mid 20to 30ish dude. This complete stranger had a shaved head and stubble beard with psychotic blue eyes who was wearing a suit. By his stance and the eerie way he was acting (i.e. not blinking and looking really edgy) he definatly looked like he was tapped of sum crazy drug. When he went to press the button he realised all the buttons were pressed in but went to press lvl 3 anyway (which meant that we didnt elongate his trip at all). When we got out of the elevator, he said in this pshyco aggressive voice DOPEY CUNTS and we walked away.
THE question of the situation is WHAT the FUDGE gave him the right to say that. I mean its not like we made his elevator trip longer and if so, wot the FUDGE is the point of trying to ruin someone elses day over such a simple and stupid matter of an elevator trip that was liek 10 seconds longer...

ANWAYS, later on that day i was hanging around with my friends in my suburbs mall jsu playing pool and shit when i got a call from my significant other. I actually didnt get a call but my freind did as i still didnt have a phone but ye he passed iton to me. She spoke, I froze... and what she said shocked me.. RETURN OF THE OLD DUTCH LADIES.

Apparently what had happend is one of the dutch ladies had waited to give my phone to one of her daughters and what her daughter had seen was a fone full of mist calls and a message saying that we knew that the dutch lady stole the phone and had reported it to the cops. She apparently then rung my significant other and was hyperventilating making up a Bull SHIT excuse saying that she was gona hand it back but didnt want any1 to steal it (figures!), and trying to sneak her way out of a criminal charge. My significant other asked me what we should do and at that moment i realised, that i had the power over this situation and could either use the Left Hand of Hate or Right Hand of Love.

Judging by the situation i decided to use the right hand of love and told the woman to give the phone back so I could get reconnected tothe mothership and I did this because i Believed that she had learnt her damn lesson.

Thank god its Friday i thought to myself and looking at the day in retrospect i started thinking to myself, why is there so much hate, loathing, and hostility between strangers and people you dont know. Whether it be wen i was tryna beat a short lady to the trainstation, or sum f*wit in an elevator, or some low life old dutch grandma, why is society so competitive and vengeful against people we dont even know. Its always an us and them situation and never together mentality (ie. war on terrorism and I believe that Progressions cant be made if we are separate forever... and that is the TRIPLE TRUTH, Ruth!!!!!!

Phoneless & Crowds more stiffer than Emporer Qin's Terracotta Army

2007-11-01T11:17:00.000+11:00

Good morning Raheemer's and how are you all doin.

First things first, life without a phone is a situation that I believe everyone should try and experience before the day they die. Its sort of like getting your umbilical cord cut off so your disconnected from the mothership of technology, but only10 times harder, ON YOUR FRIENDS!

You know how you have those days how you plan to meet up with people but you don't know what time or where your gonna meet up and you say "Ill see what happens, and I'll call you?" Or the times when your friends are being bitchy little shits saying, "I don't want to come out but I'll see if plans change?"

PROBLEM SOLVED.
When your phoneless, your friends AND family have to abide by your rules and timetable as in they cant contact you, but you cant contact them so therefore you become the dominatrix of each and every situation. And what happens if your friends and family dont meet up with you at an allocated time and place? It works as a filtering method saying who your real friends are as well as gives you have the right to flip it at them and have a hissy fit saying that you cant cope with the pressure and how much you hate being phoneless. It is simply being diabolical and ingenious MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

And this comes to subject 2 of the matter, concert crowds of 2007

As you may or may not know (judging by you know me) I have been to a fair few concerts over the years of my existence. Some have been very good, others have been appalling, but what Radio Raheem is starting to notice is that the crowds have stopped coming to dance and enjoy themselves, but are more concerned with taking photos off their o-so beloved mobiles and camera's. For instance take the two most recent concerts I have been to, the Klaxons and Justin Timberlake.

At the Klaxons, during the support act people we literally just standing stiff. Wot The EF? And its not like the supporting act where bad either, i found them quiet nourishing . By the crowd being stiff and basically standing still in where the moshpit/dancefloor was supposed to be I had a bad impression that when the Klaxons came out, the crowd was gona follow suite. LUCKY that changed DRAMATICALLY!

Justin Timberlake however was a whole different story. Me, not being a JT fan only went for my significant other so i tried to at least bear and even enjoy his performance and boy was I surprised. He was actually a good performer when he stopped parading around his giant ego (i.e. putting his suit crotch on camera, giving the finger to the audience?? wtf). The main downfall of this gianormous concert tho was that the crowd was not dancing, but more concerned with buying burgers and eating popcorn while taking pictures on their phone to show to their friends at work and school. And to top it off when JT came back for an encore people decided to walk out and leave to avoid the traffic. NOW tell me is that what any normal decent human being would be concerned with at that time or place?

I believe that a performer can only be as good as the crowd gives is and by people standing stiff, guzzling beer, eating hotdogs, and taking photos off their camera; can a performer really give their best performance? and that IS the DOUBLE TRUTH, RUTH!!!

Geriatric Kleptomania and the Push of AGEISM as a lifestyle choice

2007-10-30T18:50:00.000+11:00

Today was a day like no other, the birds were chirping, the sun was high, and everyone was getting along together creating a nirvana type atmosphere.

WRONG.
All except for the sun

Today was not any ordinary day, i didnt see or hear ANY birds, the sun was boiling, and i THOUGHT everyone was getting along together until one, cold, harsh move that would change my prespective on the world and it people, FOREVER.

The day was basically a normal day off uni for Radio Raheem, wake up late, have breakfast, clean up, work out, and head down the beach for a swim. In the area which I live in, the beach is basically 5-10 minutes away from where I live so as you'd expect, I travelled with great ease. After arriving at the beach with my significant other around 1pm, we decided to lie around n watch the clouds pass us by. By 2:30 our stomach started to grumble so we made a choice to head down to our local Mac Daddies (play on name to avoid copyright lawsuit) and meet a few of our friends there. WORST DECISION EVER

After lugging down a MkChicken meal with a large Koke we realized that two 50 yr old Dutch ladies right next to us were making a whole lot of noise that would make Peter Lorre (annoying guy of Maltese Falcon) turn around in his own grave yard. They continued with all this rabble and nonsense which totally diminished the 'healthy', happy work environment the Mac Daddies claims itself to have.

During our meal we randomly bumped into our friend who we hadnt seen in ages and she told us it was her 20th just yesterday. The two old ladies then felt the urge to join in our conversation and rant about how they just turned 21 which was obviously just a plea for attention or a really bad lie.

When we finished our meals a middle aged man with his two daughters, both in school uniforms, sat down at the tables next to us. We then proceeded to leave and as I got up to pack my backpack I didn't realize but I left my phone on the table. STUPIDEST MOVE EVER

I was out in the car park and just 3 minutes later i rushed bak into the 'restaurant' in order to find and pick up my phone , and to my surprise... IT WAS GONE! The middle aged man just told me he asked the two old ladies who owned the phone and they said, " Oh we know the owner, we are gona go hand it in to the counter". When he told me this I felt a sudden rush of calmness knowing that everything was gona be alright but when i arrived at the counter, ... NOTHING HAD BEEN HANDED IN. Apparently the check out chicks had seen the two old ladies leaving very promptly and had thought nothing of it. At that precise moment I had just realised, I HAD BEEN EFFD IN THE A-HOLE BY TWO OLD DUTCH WOMEN

I backtracked to the middle aged man n told him what had happend, a sudden expression of disgrace and liability fell upon his face when he hesitantly said, " I should of handed it in.." but i replied abruptly, "Its not your fault, dont worry about it."

An hour later, after calling the phone a hundred billion times and speaking to the fuzz about the situation I came to a harsh realization that I probably will never get the phone back and that i had to cancel and demolish the sim card.

What has today taught me u ask? While trying to be nice and respect the elderly had always been one of my admirable traits in life, when this dilemma arised i came to a realization that old people you dont know are just like normal people you dont know.. only more wrinkly. I had always been a victim of the stereotype of nice old grandmother who is always chirpy and loves tea and to make people happy, but after today, that assumption and expectation has gone from my head, NEVER to return, so from this day foward, OCTOBER 30th, the eve of HALLOWEEN, will be INTERNATIONAL I HATE OLD PEOPLE DAY which participants will celebrate by bitching about old people.

How can you help? By spreading the good word and always remembering, OLD PEOPLE ARE OLD BECAUSE THEY HAVENT BEEN CAUGHT YET! and that is the TRUTH, RUTH!

One Hot Day, One lously Weather Reporter, and Mr Pregnant

Well, my avid supporters and readers, is then second day of daylight saving, and the first day of the week, MONDAY (i hate those calenders that imply that Sunday is the first day of the week, seriously.. i am not that religious but even in the bible it states that Sunday was the 7th and last day were 'god' rested).
Anyway seeing as I have to commute on a train to uni everyday on an hour and 15 minute train, I cant exactly go outside to check the weather to coordinate my clothing attire based on how low/high the sun is, how cloudly the sky is, and how dense the oxygen smells (im VERY sensitive). Because of this I am forced to watch early morning wake up shows, where the anchors fool around and wait for the weather to get reported.
What was the verdict you ask? 28*C with definite lightning and thunderstorm.
What does this mean for me? wear hot summer clothes but dont get urself wet or bring and umbrella or you could be struck by lighting!
Hours on end past and i kept looking into the sky, watching and waiting for one little drop of rain to fall, or one small insignificant person to get struck by lightning. It NEVER happend.
Definite let down. It was like a Kubrikian version of Star Wars Episode V where you find out Chewbecca is actually Darth Vader in disguise and is Luke Skywalkers father, Obi Wan Kenobi had an affair with Princess Leia and Han Solo is their gay love child.

To take my anger out on the weather when i returned home i turned to youtube to relief me from my pain.

and what do i find?

Definite positive

I HATE you news reporter and long live these glorious days of the randomness of the internet! and that is the TRUTH, RUTH!

The First Step

WAKE UP WAKE UP WAKE UP...

UPPY WAKE UPPY WAKE UPPY WAKE!

This Is RADIO RAHEEM, your voice of choice and the choice of noise of the future generations and let me introduce myself by laying down a little wisdom.

Lao Tzu, a famous 4th Century BC Chinese philosopher once stated, "the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step"

I don't agree with statement for 2 reasons.

1) Journeys, whether they be physical, metal, or internetrical (take that OXFORD dictionary) take time to plan. I.E. Neil Armstrong didnt just walk into a space craft and fly to the moon, just like Captain Nemo didnt just jump in a boat and sink 20,000 leagues below sea level.

2) Miles dont mean anything to me. Every country I have been to, or ever want to go to use the metric system. Seriously, who in this day and age uses a self proclaimed 'imperial' system that makes as much sense as a 60's Dylan song (take that America, Liberia, & Myanmar)

BUT yeah, this is officially my third blog that I have started and hopefully ,through clever planning and management, will turn me into the next big thing, and even Bigger than Jesus!

So how should i start this off? I have been wondering about that for the last 2 hours. Dare I be very cliché and start from the top? ... I think I shall

First things first,

RADIO RAHEEM is dead.

He died due to the rising racial and class tensions in Spike Lee's breakthrough movie, "Do The Right Thing".

What does Radio Raheem have to do with a blog u ask? Well the awnser is simple...

I, anonymously enough, have taken the character and personality of Radio Raheem's and made it my online alter-ego... much like a geeky version of Clark Kent.

Who am I you ask?

Well to keep my identity top secret in order to protect my loved ones I can and will only give out little smidgens of my information.

1) Im in the teenage-young adult category
2) I live in the only continent country island thing usually found at the bottom of an Atlas
3) Ive got a so called 'all year round' Tan
and finally
4) I am a Muslim.

Well if that last point hasnt made u close this blog window then congratulations you can truly be called a Mother Teresa!

Well now for the real truth:

I live in Australia around the Sydney region, am still young (or at least young at heart) and am addicted to everythign under the sun.

Through this blog I plan to demonstrate the wisdom of Radio Raheem by talking about issues and then either giving them the left hand of HATE or the right hand of LOVE and that is the TRUTH, RUTH
