hey can i do that? hm. consider it an aspiration. one time thing, until I ‘earn’ it.

everytime i check in, there is something new, and it’s always with purpose. it’s actually very exciting. it has made me want to dig into the past that you and others refer to, the original mission. I am all about locating the source. and it has made me want to push forward for my own vision of things. a vision that has wavered as sure as life has and still does.

It reminds me of this project that my friend started a while back: http://www.u9o.net/2008/10/15/46-stories-from-2001-cynicworld-146

where people were able to just share with each other. I know it’s not the same, but the energy of the small web-based network of a similar philosophical mindset remains true.

There is still more to do. Each of us has a grand truth to uncover and share with others, and the hope is that the threads intertwine, weave, and form a compelling tapestry.

For what it’s worth, I’m honored to see your place evolve and have it influence me. MeaningofDope and LL have done that a couple of times. I have to pay that back, in due time. Graphically speaking, you’ve got some really good work/methods, and I agree that you have a keen sense of Branding, identity. It stems from a strong analytical mind. I think in terms of design, this newest iteration is well thought out, especially with the expanding/collapsing capabilities. almost no blogs feature that. hell I didn’t even know you could do that.

You put Toronto on the www map for me (is that sad?).

Whassup guys. I’m pretty stoked that this is a welcome change to something that is very important to me, and I hope, important to some of you as well. I have every intention to continue to push limits and be open with my experiences and my thoughts as well as my creations, whether they be for IdeallClothing, FullyWholly, or otherwise. I’m blessed to have friends old and new, acquaintances, family, and people I’ve never met commenting on this change. I read every single comment, and I keep your ideas, kind words and suggestions in mind at all times.

Thanks for the love and support guys.
More to come.

im really glad you’re doing this. this reminds me when i first read the concept and idea behind the LL on myspace after sherwin told me about it. i was troubled, rebellious and was banned from every high school in sauga. lets just say after reading that, i analyzed the “legends” in my “league”… it helped me gradually accept the bullshit and move on to better things. from then on, i pretty much lived with that LL mentality subconsciously. we are the product of our environment. this is why i back your brand 110%, its inspired by influence.

ps: i remember reaching your bday w/ sherwin at china doll during the peach fuzz days. i wanted to buy a jameses tee (which i think is your best piece still) but i was too broke then. so can you please re-release a limited number of them? unless you find one lying around that happens to be a large lol.

Seems to be a well thought out plan.

It amazes me that you are not more seen, not that you are not famous in a sense now but just out published somewhere.

I am a new reader/fan of yours and I did not have the pleasure of myspace days. I can say that I fell in love with this site after the read about a dream you had formulated into a poem. I was touched, moved and most of all motivated. Your site has never been a “blog” to me. Although that is not to say blogs are not the greatest just that your vision, expression, sharing, and realness seemed to be so much more than that. Hope that all can see that.

I know that I do, and appreciate you even though I have never and probably never will meet you. As a matter of fact I am sure that I have put at least 5 people since I have become a fan on to your site and your line. What can I say. I am a fan that is not just a fan but moved by what you share. ;)

So with all that being said. I hope that this still means we get the best of BE as it has been and that this world of LL never ends.

Salutes, hats off, and take a bow.

Haterz…please sit yo ass down.
