These people (regular Joes and Janes, celebrities and those who are homeless or otherwise) are barefoot or in tattersocks or even in certain cases in barefoot minimalistic footwear. Some may have feet that are deformed resulting in conditions too vast to mention. Unfortunately, none of this is my business. Sorry! However, what will I or anyone else wear barefoot?! Something simple or highly extravagant?! That is up for debate.

Bruno Mars had a Grenade, and Taio Cruz had a stick of Dynamite, so they both threw them in the diection of Katy Perry, who exploded like a Firework. The bang was so loud that the Black Eyed Peas forgot The Time, while Rihanna had memory loss and ran around saying Whats My Name. Eminem looked around and said I'm Not Afraid, then Willow Smith began to Whip Her Hair, which started a Far East Movement. They then crashed their G6 into a club and LMFAO finally stopped Party Rocking. Luckily for Nelly it was all Just a Dream.

To give one a bligh is to give one a chance, an opportunity, or a sign of support.

Example:

Hey you, quit egging on him and give that kid a bligh. Cut him some slack for once.

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. A saying Muslims take very serious, and so do I, Teshawn LeVarr Edmonds. So for example, if one man/woman kills another, that wrongdoing man/woman is put to death or if one tosses acid and burns/blinds another's eyeballs, then that wrongdoer will be burned or blinded. Here are examples according to this website:

Here is how the will of Allah is enacted today.

In 2000, the law of retaliation (Arabic word is qisas) required an eye to be removed (scroll down to 2.5):

. . . [I]n August 2000, the Saudi Arabian media reported that Abdel Moti Abdel Rahman Mohammad, a 37-year-old-Egyptian national was subjected to forcible surgical removal of his left eye at King Fahd Hospital in Medina. The operation was carried out as a judicial punishment of Qisas after he was found guilty of disfiguring Shahata Ajami Mahmoud, a 53-year-old Egyptian, by throwing acid at his face and damaging his left eye.

In 2003, in Saudi Arabia a man had two teeth extracted under the law of retaliation.

In May Awda al-Zahrani, a Saudi Arabian national, reportedly had two of his teeth extracted as a judicial punishment for having caused similar injury to someone during a fight. One press report suggested that the teeth were extracted by a dentist.

In 2003, a court in Pakistan sentenced a man to be blinded by acid after he carried out a similar attack on his fiancée.

The court in the town of Bahawalpur, Punjab province, sentenced Mohammad Sajid under the Islamic Qisas law that matches crime and punishment.

Sajid blinded and mutilated his fiancée after her parents called off the couple's engagement.

In 2004, Rania al-Baz, who had been beaten by her husband, made her ordeal public to raise awareness about violence suffered by women in the home in Saudi Arabia.

A television presenter and mother of two, Rania al-Baz was attacked by her husband on 4 April at their home in Jeddah, apparently for having answered the telephone. She suffered 13 fractures to her face. Her husband then put her in his van and reportedly dumped her unconscious at a hospital in Jeddah, claiming that she was a victim of a traffic accident. He went into hiding before surrendering to the police on 19 April. He was reportedly charged with attempted murder but this was later reduced to severe assault for which he was convicted in May. He was sentenced to six months’ imprisonment and 300 lashes. Rania al-Baz had the option of a civil action to seek retribution (qisas) in the form of compensation or corporal punishment commensurate with the harm she sustained, but apparently chose to pardon her husband in exchange for divorce and custody of her two sons. The husband served over half of his prison sentence. It was not known if he received the lashes.

In 2005, an Iranian court ordered a man’s eye to be removed for throwing acid on another man and blinding him in both eyes.

Etemaad says the accused, identified only as Vahid, was 16 when he threw a bottle of acid at another man during a fight in a vegetable market in 1993. The top opened - Vahid insists accidentally - and blinded his victim in both eyes. A court said the crime should be judged as qisas, a category for which the Koran stipulates specific punishments, in this case an eye for an eye. The paper said the sentence was to pour acid on Vahid's eyes, but an appeals court ruled it should be done surgically so as not to harm other parts of his face.

This book reports regarding the law of retaliation in Iran that the instruments for carrying out the law must be sharp and sterile, and that a one-eyed man is still liable to have his good eye removed.

Article 69

The instruments for carrying out the retaliation must be sharp and sterile, in accordance with the manner of retaliation, and be suited for such purpose. It is not allowed to inflict greater injuries on the wrongdoer than he caused.

Article 70

If someone gauges [sic, gouges] out the eye of another, he can be condemned in accordance with the law of retaliation, even if he himself has only one eye and will be blind as a consequence. No reason exists for him not to pay compensation.

Removing eyes and teeth come directly from the Quran, the eternal word of Allah, which must be imposed on humankind for its own good. Therefore, how can traditional and Quran-believing Muslims reform unless they leave behind their sacred book?

Here is how the eye-for-eye nightmare appears in the Islam that Muhammad taught—pure, true, and original Islam. First, a verse in the Quran, analyzed in its literary and historical context, orders explicitly this punishment. Second, the hadith (reports of Muhammad’s words and deeds outside of the Quran) records reliable traditions that say to knock out teeth and poke out eyes. Third, later classical legal rulings, which are rooted in the Quran and hadith, follow this barbarity.

Finally, after analyzing the Torah on the law of retaliation, we contrast the way of Jesus with the way of Muhammad. Needless to say, Jesus tells us that it is better to forgive than to enact the law of retaliation literally. At least when Christianity reformed later on in history, the Reformers went back to the New Testament, which preaches divine peace and love.

This law should no longer exist after Jesus ushered in the new era of salvation. For the record, six hundred years after this new and uplifting era, Muhammad ordered the entire world to march backwards to an old-new law, in a distorted and haphazard way.

Unfortunately, this act of qisas, or retribution, cannot be done in North America because doing so will cause very big trouble. Please do not try these acts anywhere at anytime.

If one is a cheater, he or she will always be one. It's about time to issue a fatwa, even though I'm not Muslim, against anyone cheating--men or women. This fatwa will be enforced by the Edmonds' Code and those who cheat must be either put to death via firearm/stabbing/decapitation or severe torture via the use of a cane, paddle, and/or extension cord, subjected to the limits of 50/250 strokes of the cane/extension cord and 100/500 strokes of the paddle respectively for Code reasons.

First post since March 2009.
Finally get to post for once, barefoot and true in my legwarmers.

2010-03-16T20:02:00.002-04:00

Although red is my favorite sock color and white is my least, my personal preference for footwear is/are open -heeled clogs, with or without the strap in any color, most preferbably in black, the Ugg Australia Classic Short or Bearpaw Dorado boots, both in black, chocolate brown or chestnut brown. Also, adidas footwear in either white or black, and also the Converse All-Stars Chuck Taylor low -tops in black, red or my personal favorite color--purple. Why purple, you ask?! I told you it's my favorite color and many of you are not fans of the stated color, yet it matters not with me, anyway.

Now I would either pair my above-stated footwear with red socks, in legwarmers, or perhaps both, or even barefoot. As a matter of fact, I strongly prefer going barefoot in my footwear (clogs, Ugg Australia/Bearpaw Boots, adidas or Converse All-Stars), but leaving Wednesdays as the only day explicitly in red socks--two pairs at the same time. Albeit smelly, but comfortable nonetheless.

2010-02-17T02:10:00.003-05:00

By the way, I DO count in fifths of a second. For example, in a Speedskating 5.0km (3-1/8 miles) Skater A will come across the wire in 6'26"3/5 or 6'26"794 (six minutes, twenty-six and three-fifths of a seconds). Then I would say "Further back is Skater B who comes across the wire in 6'31"2/5," which means that I would say "in six minutes, thiry-one and two [-fifths]" when the actual time is 6'31"530

2010-02-17T01:30:00.002-05:00

As I stated earlier in one of my tweets on Twitter (@TeshawnEdmonds), I said that speedskating is the icy equvalent of horse racing--both long track aka the quarter-mile or 400m and short track aka the sixteenth-mile or ninth-kilometer or 111-1/9m. Also that of horse racing equivalents are cross-country skiing and biathlon. I would say, for example, "past the sixteenth pole [100m/110yds]" or "they come for home" or "top of the stretch" or even "down the stretch they come." I'm really serious about these Olympic race sports, especially speedskating and cross-country skiing. Durkin, Johnson and Denman have nothing on me, TLE (Teshawn LeVarr Edmonds).

500m (02.50 furlongs/550yds/5/16 mile)
1.0km (05.00 furlongs/5/8 mile)
1.5km (07.50 furlongs/15/16 US or 1.0 metric mile)
3.0km (15.00 furlongs/1-7/8 miles)
5.0km (25.00 furlongs/3-1/8 miles)
7.50km (37.50 furlongs/4-11/16 miles)
10.0km (50.00 furlongs/6-1/4 miles)
15.0km (75.00 furlongs/9-5/16 miles)
30.00km (150.00 furlongs/18-11/16 miles)
50.00km (250.00 furlongs/31-1/16 miles)

2010-02-06T17:32:00.003-05:00

I told you to wear legwarmers, but not go barefoot if the air temps are under 40F/04C, unless you are brave enough to do so. This is snowfooting--barefoot in the snow. Not a great idea, but it can be done

2010-01-16T02:50:00.004-05:00

I'm trying to figure out the exact decription of this kitten here. Can anyone figure out this cat?! Can anyone describe it?!

2009-12-31T10:04:00.002-05:00

It's the end of year and there is nothing to look back upon 2009 as it is right now. There are more failures than successes and I'm NOT getting into them. 2009 started out well, but it ended too quickly for me. 2010 ought not be the same for it to become 2009 and the decade of the 2000s. The hell with it, I'm moving on.

Happy 2010, says I, Teshawn LeVarr Edmonds.

I cannot believe we're nearing Xmas Day 2009-2010 and the end a miserable decade (to say the least, IMHO).

Jingle Bells: The Interaktiv One's Version

Thrashing through the Snow,

On a two-horse open sleigh,

Jamari Jaylen says,

"Grandma lose the weight!"

My oldest Melonhead,

Is a greyhead sacka EAD,

And has a flabby jelly roll

He'll lose some weight someday!

O,
Jingle bells
Beanhead smells
Mom is baby fat
Terron's a big sacka EAD,
and Tiana ran away!

I, TLE, hail to the foreskin, just like Michigan hails its victors. If anyone, even Dr. Zilber, wha want my foreskin, they'll have to pay me an excellent sum of money, like $1 million US or Canadian or in Europe, then it's €750,000 or in Japan ¥100 million. But I will tell you this, money will not get back a piece of my flesh to cover my penis, so leave my goddamnit foreskin alone!

2009-11-14T19:01:00.002-05:00

Do NOT blame me, nor the goalie, blame yourselves, those who are physically responsible to their own misdeeds. Beware of those whom have cut ties against you, and those who are permanent enemies.

It has been months since my last post. This will not be my last, nor will it ever be my least either

2009-10-04T22:00:00.001-04:00

Made it to my 24th birthday...and a full moon to boot. Wish I can do yoga, but unforttunately, I must wait until the next day (Monday 05 October 2009). When the temperature dips below 60, PUT THE LEGWARMERS ON!

2009-09-13T04:46:00.002-04:00

This woman saw me barefoot and told me that. like me, went barefoot. Her situation is that her shoes that she was wearing hearting her feet, so she took them off, thusly being forced to walk barefoot. This conversation took place on East 14. Street and 3. Avenue. I've been walking barefoot @ the time since I left the Barefoot Boogie on 28 West 27. Street between Broadway & 6. Avenue.

2009-09-13T04:43:00.003-04:00

I've haven'y posted any blog entries for the past few months, due to various conflicts and whatnots. I almost decided to close my Interaktiv Blog. But decided to keep it and use it as an updater atop the page. Effectively, I have time to waste, but with the comupter, I simply do not.

2009-08-13T01:56:00.002-04:00

Barefoot Challenge Rules

One must ALWAYS barefoot, unless otherwise notified, for a minimum two hours
One must ALWAYS carry footwear in case rules and regulations, including signboards, are posted or it is dictated verbally.
One must NEVER enter a restaurant,--fast food or otherwise--pharmacy, or supermarket barefoot. unless it is OK to do so.
Should one be shown on television barefoot, he/she MUST be tightly bound and tickle-tortured
Example locations that are "Bare Feet OK", are small grocery stores, thrift shops, dollar stores, and laundromats.

2009-08-02T00:00:00.001-04:00

On Tuesday, 28 July 2009, I, TLE, went to the laundromat and to thestore in my bare feet, getting them dirty in the process. Immediately afterleaving the front door, I took off my flip-flops and carried ny slippers, inaddition to carrying Old Bay because I had not yet ate. I was told to dry theclothing, for which my mom requested and I had accepted. I went there, butdetoured to a grocery store barefoot with the red shopping csrt that I hadpossessed. I didn't buy anything, but continued onwards to my destination, buthad to get them dirty in the process, so the dirt can stick to my feet. I wasthere and did was requested. Even though my uncle texted me during the process,wanting me to come to retrieve a Bluetooth headset. That request was acceptedimmediately after me returing home to drop off the recently dried clothes. Afterleaving the laundromat still barefoot, I went to a nearby pizza shop to order aslice of Peperoni Siclian again because I haven't ate yet and went into agrocery store in that fashion.As soon as I got across Linden Boulevard, I decided to take a deour down PineStreet to another grocery assuming my family was present or around the cornersof both Euclid Avenue and Pine Street. Finally I went to another corner store,still barefoot with a dog attempting to attack me due to my state of me meingbarefoot. As I got out of the store after buying Gatorade, the dog in questionbarked at me directly. He wanted a piece of me for being barefoot. Before thattook place a group of children told/asked me that I didn't have footwear on. Iacutally did posess footwear to get back inside the first floor flat and had toput on my slippers on before turning the corner for home. Afterwards I droppedof the cart in the front room and headed off to pick up the Bluetooth headset aswell as the wireless one my Uncle possessed that he didn't need anymore. Mymission was completed before the stroke of 0000 (12.00 midnight EDT).

2009-08-01T23:56:00.000-04:00

On 06 July 2009 (Monday), I, TLE, saw this young girl in the pink at alocal department store in City Line (BTW, I live in Brooklyn).As I spotted hernear the heightened cashier counter and saw her barefoot, but her parentscarried sneakers and in a dire need of new footwear. But none the less wasbarefoot in a shopping basket.

2009-07-03T12:56:00.002-04:00

This year's All-Star Game in Saint Louis is getting bigger, not smaller and I cannot stand it one bit. Leagues--National and American--are given 33 players, opposed to the 32 in season 2008 @ the old Yankee Stadium. My proposal would be to strictly limit to the current 25-player roster (AL has 14 clubs, NY Yankees included and NL has 16 with the NY Mets included). Let there be just ONE representative per team, leaving 11 AL and 09 NL players to be filled out. Since eight teams have made the postseason to the division series in season 2008, that's four per league, an extra player is given, leaving 07 AL'ers and 05 NL'ers to be filled out. In the same postseason four teams who would advance onward to the league's finale will get an extra vote, leaving the AL with 05 and 03 with the NL. Finally, the World Series finale will give both teams one more vote. The final tally: the AL with 21, and the NL with 23. A two player disadvantage for the AL and four fewer slots to fill. As for the NL, all they need is to fill two more slots to complete.

Therefore the following should take place:

Philadelphia and Tampa Bay will recieve four slots each

LA Dodgers and Boston will recieve three slots each

Four teams--both Chicago teams--Cubs and White Sox, Milwaukee, and the LA Angels of Anaheim--will all recieve two slots

Everyone else will recieve one slot, including both NY-based teams

Wildcard slots will be detrmined as follows:
American League: 04 slots
National League: 02 slots

When talking about the number of slots, I, TLE, mean is the for the player representing that team in question regardless of league or position

The limit on the number position players (NL rules require the pitcher to bat)

Pitchers (NL ballparks only):
one starting, five middle relievers, and one closer

Pitchers (AL ballparks only):
one starting, three middle relievers and one closer

Two per each position
Catcher
1. Baseman
2. Baseman
3. Baseman
Shortstop
Leftfielder
Centerfielder
Rightfielder
Designated Hitter (AL ballparks only)

I just did a little sprucing up of my Sansa Fuze and my 1.0GB microSD card today as they're taking too much disk space, nearly running out in the progress.

2009-01-29T09:46:00.002-05:00

What's up with me, TLE, with this constant gripe, the constant vex, of certain diaspora? I'm mumbling 'useless Italian-Americans,' 'useless Greek-Americans,' 'incomplete Greeks,' etc. I don't get it one way or another. Is it mean that I'm more jealous or just putrid. That answer will likely not to come.

TLE: Never actually thought I would actually see yoga @ the London Eye.
Knuckles: It's blown to pieces
Tails: Wonder why it self-destructed.
TLE: Wish I could answer that question, Unfortunately, I cannot.

Sonic: Talk about humongous!
Tails: Wow! I've never anything so big!
Knuckles: The Egg Carrier is nothing compared to this.

TLE: I, TLE, have never heard of her and I want to destroy her!
Omega: "The T2000, so they're in production. I'll destroy them!"

Never heard of you. My eyes want to destroy you, but the rest of me will look at you in scorn.

Like I said before, I, TLE, cook the best fried chicken, spaghetti and burgers in the Matheny-Edmonds-Leveille Family Clan. I wanted to try out fried cookie dough, just without the chocolate chips. You see I would strongly disagree with my parents, especially my sacka EAD father, Old Melonhead and my mom. Well my chicken is done in a hybrid way and it goes like this:

Use chicken cutlets or parts (preferred: thighs, breast, wing, drumstick)
Use Old Bay, sugar (not much because my mom is diabetic), and the remaining seasonings are absolutely tip-top secret, just like the Colonel does with his chicken
Use flour or tempura batter with bread crumbs or crushed corn flakes (I strongly suggest the latter than the former to make the meat more crunchier)
Don't use milk nor eggs as they are banned by the Edmonds' Code
Use oil--any oil (vegetable, corn, olive, canola, etc.)
Use a pot--at least medium-sized and fill the oil to at least 1/2 way
Combine contents from the above with the oiled pot heated to at least 350F/180C or about halfway on the burner's dial.
Fry the chicken for at least 03' to 06' per side and turn at least thrice or until the piece is not only golden brown, but also the meat itself is totally white, absolutely no pink for safety reasons.
GO EAT...er, enjoy, says I, TLE!

Closing in on the new year in 2009. So I, TLE, must wish you a Happy New Year, plain and simple.

This will be the last post of the 2008 calendar. The first one of 2009 is incoming.

What a waste! An Xmas Day ruined instantly by a blackout. This one fatal, 71 minutes to the day itself, the lights and all the electronics--ALL of them--totally off and not even my Xmas tree is lit. When I, TLE, said this, I mean it. Keep the tree lights ON all day regardless of the circumstances. My mom even begged ConEd to no avail on two attempts, one @ 23.00 (11.00pm ET) last night, Xmas Eve Wednesday and earlier today just after 09.00 (9.00am ET) before phoning 311 to no avail. They're telling her that they will get the power @ 16.00 (4.00pm ET). Angered, I stormed off to the 24/7 laundromat @ 06.13 (6.13am ET) to watch adidas PIX Morning News with or without electricity and nearly three hours later returned to have my mom yell on Tiana's cellphone. I asked my mom to send me to my big Beanhead at once because I'm in no mood to await seven more hours due to my strong impatience for what I, TLE, want--electricity. I told my mom that we, the Edmonds Family, MUST move out of the current residence of 737 New Jersey Avenue in Brooklyn, New York, USA. I just got fed the hell up, plain and simple. the frustration is simply too much for me and my mom and it's time for all members of the Edmonds Family to move out, not just out of Brooklyn, but out of New York State altogether, so we, the Family, can rid the corrupt ConEd from our system.

Anyway, Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year

2008-12-24T20:16:00.002-05:00

No matter what you say it in your language, have a happy holiday season and a prosperous new year.

So Merry Xmas, Feliz Navidad, Joyeux Noel, Buon Natale, Feliz Natal, Froehliche Weihnachten, God Jul, and my personal favorite in Japanese: Meri Kurisumasu soshite Akemashite Omedeto!

Who makes the best fried chicken? Old Melonhead (father/Jamari Jaylen's Grandpa)?! Tiana (sister/Jamari Jaylen's Mother)?! Me, the one and only Interaktiv One, TLE, himself?! The three of us have been debating this issue for years now and since I am a fan of fried chicken, I make the best fried chicken in the Matheny-Edmonds-Leveille clan. But Old Melonhead claims HE makes the best fried chicken--BULLSHIT, Melon! I make the best fried chicken in this family, even though I do not cook very often except when needed. I use Old Bay, Salt, Pepper, Sugar, Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Adobo with both Bitter Orange and Lemon and many seasonings too numerous to mention. So if my family takes a bite of chicken, they damn well know who made it and they will like it regardless.

Besides fried chicken, I, TLE, also make the best Italian-American spaghetti sauce around as well. The difference between the family's sauce and mine is that I not only add sugar, but also add BullsEye Barbecue Sauce and Old Bay Seasoning to it and the family version only adds sugar. My family discovered that the sauce, nevermind the pasta, tasted the sweetness due to the acidity reduction and a little kick because without the sugar and the BullsEye, expect a serious bellyache.

So, fried chicken and Italian-American spaghetti sauce done the Interaktiv Way or the old fashoned Matheny-Edmonds-Leveille way. Mine, the Interaktiv One's, is the best hands down. Oh yeah, do NOT send fellow lefty, comedian, current TPIR host and Clevelander Drew Allison Carey over to the Interaktiv Potluck Dinner hosted by yours truly.

Recipe for Deep-Fried Vanillascotch Chip Cookie Dough

Using the Food Network's entry for its Chocolate Chip version

Ingredients

Dough:
2 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup pasteurized eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup each (12-ounce package) Premium White and Butterscotch chips

Batter:
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 large egg (or 1/4 cup pasteurized eggs)
1/2 cup seltzer water or club soda, plus more if needed
Vegetable oil, for frying

Directions

For the dough: Put the flour, baking soda, and salt into a bowl and stir it with a whisk to combine. Set aside. Using a hand or stand mixer, beat the butter until it is lighter in color. Slowly add in sugars and beat until it is light and fluffy. Add the eggs 1 at a time and beat until they are incorporated. Stir in the vanilla. Add the flour mixture using the low speed, then stir in the chocolate chips. Set aside.
To form the cookies: Use 2 teaspoons of the dough and roll it into balls. Put the balls onto a cookie sheet. When they are all made, put them into the freezer for about 30 minutes to firm up.

For the batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and baking powder. Add the egg and half the seltzer and whisk well to combine. Add more seltzer as needed until the batter is thick and the consistency of heavy cream.

To make the cookies: Heat the oil in a deep-fat fryer to 350 degrees F.
Dip the chilled dough balls in the batter and carefully place them into the hot oil. Fry a few at a time, turning them over from time to time, until they are golden brown, about 3 minutes total. Drain on paper towels and serve while still warm.

Enjoy and thank you, Food Network

Hmmm...a dine-in restaurant. That's sweet, but what would I, TLE, do?! What should I do?! Dine-in as expected?! Not a chance in hell, even if I have at least one other member, I MUST still dine solo or not at all. INDIVIDUALISM is key and I MUST be alone and without help. I'd rather hide and dine than be exposed. Have several panes two-way acrylic mirrors (cannot use glass mirrors for safety reasons), two or three cinder block walls installed for fortification, center-seeking (centrufugal) camera systems, detectors, deflectors, invisibilty, just about anything to dine in as privately as possible. Well, that's too much of a fort, but anyway, I like such an idea as that.

My mom (Jamari Jaylen's Grandma): Sit here!
TLE: Mom, if I sit here, I'll be embarassed badly.
My mom (Jamari Jaylen's Grandma): SIt down!
TLE: Mom, you are Baby Fat!

If I, TLE, don't wish you a happy holiday season and a prosperous New Year, then I'll regret it for not doing so for all but at least 30 days of the calendar. Again, Merry Xmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Kwanzaa, and a Happy New Year. 2009 is coming soon

2008-12-23T08:54:00.003-05:00

If I kick my mom in the ass, I would do it. If my mom, however, was to be replaced by my Old Melonhead (father), then he gets the same treatment. Now what's the reason for this is the holidays. If something listed is neither gift-wrapped nor bought nor underneath the two Xmas trees, an example would be a pair of clogs. First, I asked for the Crocs Mammoth, then the Anna "Harley"-style and the ankle-strap, then the Tessa Mountain Clog, another ankle-strapped clog and the cow-printed clog and finally the Crocs Wolly Mammoth. Now I want all my clogs to be in black and in a men's size 10/EU 43, Unfortunately, all of these were declined for budgetry reasons. I don't know why would my mom deny footwear that I can stand straight and be confortable in both sockfoot and barefoot, both with or without legwarmers.

BTW, Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year and I'll whip the ass of Bernard Madoff for taking more than $50 billion in someone else's loot, bankroll, bread, cheese, wine, skrilla, dough, whatever you want to call it. Bah Humbug to that shithead Madoff and many others that will regret for their sins.

Remember, if you procrastinate, you are late, especially if you are less than 10 days from an important event like Hanukkah, Xmas Day or my own Birthday (04. October), you are considering right NOW to buy something for your loved one enlisted on one's list for birthday, Xmas or even Hanukkah.

So remember the military jargon:

Early is on time,
On time is late,
Late is not acceptable

I, TLE, am and many others. In fact, I have been an avid KFC fan for a long time, so what with the other bullshit outside. As for McDonald's, they suck balls BIG TIME and I'm not kidding. Burger King is up there with KFC as they rock too. Popeye's also suck balls and so does White Castle.

Looks like I've gone barefoot for at least the time being until Terron, my older brother, returns from a doctor's appointment aside Old Melonhead, a Sacka EAD company.

Barefoot, indeed in a black turtleneck with black skinny jeans and black stirrup legwarmers with my feet being stained NOT in dirt, but the dye from my Bearpaw boots. Heavens, my feet do sweat and stink at the same time. But staying home outright is the only option I, TLE, have today except Champions League football (soccer) is coming both today (Tuesday 25.11.2008) and tomorrow (Wednesday 26.11.2008) and one UEFA Cup contest on Thanksgiving Thursday (27.11.2008).

Barefooters Rule! Lefties Rule!

The Interaktiv Anti-Thankgiving Thursday Rant

Me being against Thanksgiving Thursday (Thankgiving Monday in Canada in October). I, TLE, mean, what the hell are you and your family would do to all of that preparation for the incoming dinner, waste it in three days?! I wouldn't as I, TLE, refuse to cook any mass meals that would go to waste in three FULL days, turkey/turchicken/turducken, etc. included in this junk. I'd rather have fried spinach chicken, fried spinach balls and Rice-A-Roni on my plate. If you ask me, TLE, to give any thanks, I will absolutely refuse to do so because I am NOT so thankful for anything. So if you're a Pilgrim, FUCK YOU! I'LL DESTROY BOTH YOU AND YOUR TURKEY! As for a Native American, however, I'll come to Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods and give you a high five and be given a real hero's feast, even if I have to show ID.

So, I, TLE, will skip Thanksgiving Thursday and watch football (soccer) or go elsewhere, or prepare for the Xmas/Kwanzaa/Hanukkah/New Year aka the winter holiday season. Besides, who the hell wants a dry-tasting turkey?! Not me. I'll not only bartend, but eat KFC instead. Fuck Thanksgiving Thursday!

2008-11-22T23:12:00.003-05:00

What the hell is this, a pushmi-pullyu?! Is my mind gone amisss or something?! Well, unfortunately, it has because this animal from Dr. John Doolittle is actually combined the single torso of a llama (antelope in the 1967 adaptation) with two heads interconnected and front legs of each side of the body. Weirdos, what a bunch of useless vegans (sighs).

I, TLE, don't care who the hell you are, but if you yodel at anytime in my presence, expect to be tickle tortured for up to 20 minutes. I mean it!

2008-11-19T09:20:00.002-05:00

By the way, if a movie is more than two hours, fifteen minutes (2.15'/135'), then I, TLE, won't even think about seeing it. The original rule was two hours flat (2.00'/120') before the rules change took effect.

2008-11-19T09:07:00.002-05:00

In order for me, TLE, to see any movie, regardless of day of the week (Wednesday/Friday/Xmas Day), that movie MUST premere on that day BEFORE 00.00 local (12.00 midnight). Otherwise, the movie will NOT be seen nor can it be seen at any other time. Sorry!

Examples:
Wednesday (OK)-->Thursday (NO)
Friday (OK)-->Saturday (NO)
Xmas Day (OK)-->Boxing Day (NO, unless it's a Wednesday/Friday)

It's no longer a joke, a laughing matter, or otherwise. I want to see a movie EARLY and ON TIME BEFORE MIDNIGHT EASTERN/LOCAL. NO OTHER TIME LATER!

2008-11-19T00:09:00.001-05:00

Oh, what a hit!
He/She just got ran over like a (insert a motor vehicle here).

2008-11-13T15:27:00.002-05:00

So if a brave handful of men AND women can cut off their pubic hair, why can't I, TLE?! I will tell you this: Mom, Old Melonhead, so the hell what if I did so! If I get a regular haircut, why can't my triangle get the same treatment?! My Mom and Old Melonhead refuse such request. So I did so on my own without any kind of permission and said nothing about it. It will grow back, BTW, but will have to be careful for ingrown hairs and hairs because I will have to pop some of them.

2008-11-13T15:07:00.002-05:00

Three things to do to get a good hit:

Line 'em up
Size 'em up
Mash 'em up

On 05 February 2008--Super Tuesday, I went to a polling station, which was PS 292's auditorium. My mom told me to pick Hilary Rodham Clinton due to the fact that her left-handed ex-President Bill Clinton was his wifey. I, TLE, went against my mom's choice and went for Barack Hussein Obama Jr (true birthname), an unknown before the 2006-07 season, in the primary vote.

Fast forward to 04 November 2008--

2008-10-30T09:37:00.002-04:00

I, TLE, am so pissed that I cannot even find the original "2 Grils, 1 Cup" and 2 Girls, 1 Finger" videos ANYWHERE on the internet. Even though I've seen reactions from viewers who saw the two minute-long clips were so horrified about it. I wanted to see it, but for months i couldn't until today, Thursday, the 30. of October 2008 whereas I finally found out that "poo" aka, turd ,or shit was really real and so is the vomit. Thank heavens I didn't react to the video the first time because I was in too serious of a tone be in such action. However in subsequent views, I did react in such a manner that is in absolute disgust to many a viewer, that it is banned from television due to its strong, yet malodorous sexual content. Even the FCC (United States Federal Communications Commission) is horrified about "2 Girls, 1 Cup" and "2 Girls, 1 Finger" videos. Both videos cannot be shown, but can, however be linked up to the following:

"2 Girls, 1 Cup"
http://www.thatsphucked.com/post/2007/11/2-girls-1-cup-video.aspx

"2 Girls, 1 Finger"
http://www.thatsphucked.com/post/2007/11/2-girls-1-finger-is-even-more-disgusting.aspx

For now, please enjoy at your own risk and don't vomit because I, TLE, will NOT be responsible for cleanup by the use of "Odor Scrub."

Tried to tell Jess to get back, begged and pleaded against coming, I, TLE, said "No Jess" or "Please, no Jess" or even said "Jess Free!" Unfortunately for the Interaktiv One himself, TLE, this Simpsonite refused my request. She went to Dancing With the Stars, version 7.0 anyway and caused a nightmare situation. For the coming weeks, I have been chased around, hounded in some sorts or even being forced into invisibility and stealth modes simultaneously just to avoid the Texan. My fellow Simpsonite and Interaktiv teammates were no help except the ones I, TLE trust most, including Terron (older brother) to help me escape capture from this Cursed Simpsonite. At least managed to avoid her at all costs, even refusing to watch certain shows be not mentioned. Needing refuge from the outside, I, TLE, hid into some hideout and stayed there all day until they, the Underground People allowed me to stay, completely impossible for the useless Simpsonite to capture me, thus rendering her radar also useless and therefore flown off in failure for not able to capture me, TLE into the underground because thank heavens, there's a hospital like Brookdale Hospital, but with the normal house toilets (standard bowl with closed-front toilet seat). Finally I, TLE, was able to totally escape absolute capture from Simpsonite and other riders who made the futile effort never to see me again.

Like I said before, speedskating--both short and long track--is like horse racing on skates. Skaters go at up to 40mph (64km/h) around left turns like madness with at least two skaters, but I've seen as many as 20 skaters in Torino 2006 because one of the teams were DQ'd in one of the two semifinals taken place earlier. In the individual skate race, that can be like the Kentucky Derby, Preakness and Belmont Stakes and all the Breeders' Cup races all wrapped into one on an ice rink or an icy oval in such distances as the 500m, 1.0km (5.00 furlongs), 1.5km (7.50 furlongs), 3.0km, 5.0km, and 10.0km (1-7/8, 3-1/8 and 6-1/4 miles repectively) both individual and relay and not to mention the team pursuit.

I, Teshawn LeVarr Edmonds, hereby sentence you, (the offender) up to two hours of tickle torture maximum with a five minutes minumum. That sentence alone is a deterrent to an Edmonds' Code violation, rather than give between five and 50 strokes of the 42" (1.07 m) cane or five to 100 strokes of the meter-long (3' 03") paddle for a minor crimes.

Anyone born on this date 04 October in any year will be lucky for the rest of one's life. As for me, Teshawn LeVarr Edmonds, this is my 23. birthday the reason for posting is because I'm born in 1985 in Brooklyn, New York, USA @ 13.50/10.50 (1.50pm/10.50am ET/PT) @ The University Hospital of Brooklyn aka SUNY Downstate. So please, wish me a happy birthday until my 24. on this date in 2009, which is a Sunday--a raceday.

2008-09-28T01:44:00.003-04:00

Looks like those fools are in such a pickle and cannot escape. I, TLE, can, however can escape such situations such as being chased by like the use of teleportation, invisibility, flight by jetpack, flight by wings, flight by pure speed, running away, warp speed, and jumping. These acts can never be attempted by anyone, anywhere at anytime for safety reasons, unless you are both foolish and nuts. They're thinking that cloned version of myself, which is a decoyed version. The real TLE is actually sitting on the computer @ 03.00 hours in the morning Eastern Time (00.00 Pacific Time) in a white turtleneck, black shorts and two pairs of legwarmers (one white with pink and lavender argyle covered with a solid black one). and a pair of dirty bare feet. So I can let my mind be chased around coming after me nightly, including Sunday. But to really escape the inescapeable, I'll simply have to wake the hell up and realize the real world is vast and many people are either friendly or bitter towards you. My advice to you is stay awake, get charged up and sleep later. You'll need it and so do I, TLE. For now, I'm outta here and its 03.32 Eastern 00.32 Pacific.

I, Teshawn LeVarr Edmonds, cannot do anything around here, in front of my family, for my family. Not even Queensborough Community College, nor VESID, nor anyone I trust that will offer financial help to both of my parents and to myself. I wanted out of New York State even before season 2004-05 got started and still do now. Even then I still wanted to go to a college/university OUTSIDE New York State whilst at the same time I still wanted out. But my pleas went unanswered and my master plan burned in hell with it and my life was never the same. The American economy will also burn in hell and I'll force the whole entire Matheny-Edmonds-Leveille families to Europe never to return to the Crumbled States of America. Everyone hates me, classmates, teachers and faculty from previous years all can't stand me now. Even the trusted few bailed, never be a part of me again but in memory. The schools I went to will be cursed and I'll be vengeful and I'll reign supreme. The Interaktiv One will strike again in invisibility and continuously. Let me, Teshawn LeVarr Edmonds, report out. I'm outta here.

I could be wearing those soon or later. In fact, not bad. Not bad at all.

Legwarmer rule has become mandatory and so are skinny jeans, as well as flats and clogs to accompany both the men and women. Clogs are for the men and the flats are for the women. What about skinny jeans, you asked? Well I can tell you that skinny jeans can be worn by both genders as rockers such as the Ramones started to wear the skinny jeans, even I'm wearing one right now.

Oh, I almost forgot, don't ask me to wear any socks unless it's a Wednesday, a holiday or a birthday that I, TLE, recognizes, including my own birthday (04 October). If it is one of the mentioned or in a combination, red socks MUST be worn as Chinese folks see red as a lucky color and I have plenty of them, good heavens. Instead, if the air temperature is at or under 60F/16C, legwarmers will be worn as a part of the mandatory rule involving these thick tubes of hoisery.

2008-09-23T02:03:00.008-04:00

A color clog is one thing I would have on my feet this season. My first desired color would be orange. But since the said color was worn by Batali-san, I decided to wear a pair of yellow Swedish clogs, if I could get to convince my Mom to do this act on my behalf. If yellow wan't the color, then cowprint clogs, black clogs with strap aka the Mountain Clog or even I could rely on a pair of Crocs (R) Mammoth Clog in all-black (even though it's in red/oatmeal grey). I'm in for a very rough decision even though my 23. birthday is less than a forthnight away. So regardless, Mom, buy me a pair of OPEN BACK clogs and not the pro clog and don't forget to bring home another pair of Bearpaw boots. Again, all of my footwear is always black or in a high-visibility color like orange or yellow.

2008-09-23T02:03:00.003-04:00

Black shirt, dark blue or black skinny jeans, no socks, a pair of Dansko clogs and if at or under 60F/16C, a pair of legwarmers is what describes the Interaktiv One, Teshawn LeVarr Edmonds what I, yours truly would personally wear.

2008-09-17T13:40:00.002-04:00

What a bunch of annoying punks, I had to say. You see the pieces of shit--Mills, Coulter, Patrick, Pierzina, and many others too numerous to mention

Also, these nations that I will NEVER visit: Singapore, Saudi Arabia (not even Dhahran or Ad Dammam), Israel, or any part of northern Africa and the Middle East. All for safety reasons.

2008-08-24T10:09:00.004-04:00

If you though that I, Teshawn LeVarr Edmonds, would watch the closing ceremonies of Beijing 2008 aka the Games of the XXIXth (29th) Summer Olympiad on NBC television later on, you're wrong. You see, I had to watch the closing ceremonies ABSOLUTELY LIVE, ON THE COMPUTER, nonetheless, even in Arabic, English, French, Spanish or even Chinese Mandarin, that's still not enough to stop me. Even if NBC Olympics tried it's best to stop me, it was futile, and there was no way of doing so.

By the way, the youth of this Earth will descend upon London, GBR on Friday, the 27th day of July in 2012, that's 3 years 338 days from now, Sunday, the 24th of August in 2008 @ 11.20am ET (11.20 hours). So until then and Vancouver for the Winter Olympics, it is I, Teshawn LeVarr Edmonds, reportting out until Friday, the 12th day of February 2010, that is 1 year, 172 days from now.

Rouge: OK, no more Olympic Games.
Omega: Intercept mode, complete!
Shadow: This is the end of the line, China!

Tails: Yeah! We did it!
Knuckles: Whew, that was pretty tough.
Sonic: Too bad it's all over, Beijing...FOR YOU!

The ecstasy of victory overpowers the agony of failure in these Olympic Games as demonstrated by China, the USA and 202 other nations that participated in this five-ring circus, with Dr. Jacque Rogge as the Ringmaster aka the IOC president until the end of his term. 10,708 athletes invited to this massive party. Talking about me being so stoked, the athletes and officials are also stoked, just like yours truly.

2008-08-17T00:10:00.002-04:00

An impossible feat in Beijing, China as Michael Fred Phelps II of Baltimore, Maryland, USA, the same birthland as my Old Melonheaded father of mine and grandfather of Jamari Jaylen, Louis Terrone Edmonds, has done it! Step aside Mark Spitz, Phelps is here to stay with his eight gold medals, as well as seven Guinness World Records and a single solitary Olympic record in the 100m butterfly in a photo finish. Alain Bernard, the adidas-capped Frenchman, was made to eat his own words by wanting to smash the quarter-mile American freestyle relay team, Phelps amongst them, by way of Jason Lezak by .08 second on the wire. Phelps overcame his own photo finish by taking a 1/2-stroke in the 100m 'fly to overcome States-born Serbian representative Milorad "Milo" Cavic by .01 second--"Too close to call," cried out Tom Durkin and I, Teshawn LeVarr Edmonds, in the 2007 Belmont Stakes whereas Rags to Riches overcame Curlin at the wire. Both Phelps and Lezak overcame Cavic and Bernard by a combined .09 second--a horse racing equivalent of a nose to even a dead heat. Eight golds, seven Guinness records, and one Olympic record will be adjoined by way of the performance inside the Beijing National Stadium aka the "Bird's Nest whereas Usain Bolt aka the "Lightning Bolt" showed the world what he is made of. A 09"69 Guinness record blew everyone away, including ex-Guinness record-holder Asafa Powell and an injury-ridden Tyson Gay who missed out on the grand final of the men's 100m dash for cash by finishing in the fifth of eight runners in the second semifinal held earlier on Saturday, the 16. day of August 2008 at 10.37am Eastern time, the same time in Beijing at nightfall locally on the PM side.

Impossible feats, ultimate Olympic power. Simply the best, hands down.

2008-08-13T00:22:00.003-04:00

An impossible feat inside the Water Cube (National Aquatic Centre, Beijing, CHN) a 6'58"2/5 1/2 mile freestyle relay for Team USA Swimming on the men's side. As for Chinese gymnastics inside the National Indoor Arena, a gold medal sweep in the team finale for both the men and the women.

The USA and China are showing the rest of the world what both nations are made of.

Like I said before, if you smoke, you choke. If you joke you choke, you worthless bloke.

Anyone who fails in an event/discipline will be called "useless" and "useful" if successful.

If you're a fan of the following nations, you will be called a/an:
China: Sinophile
Japan: Japanophile
Korea: Koreophile
Russia: Russophile
Serbia: Serbophile
Romania: Romaniac
Italy: Italophile

Doctors have told me that I, TLE, have a severe case of "Olympicitis," a fictional disorder that reflects the obsession for the Olympic Games--Winter and/or Summer. It's also the condition's lone cure for the fact is by watching them plenty on a daily basis.

2008-08-06T14:01:00.002-04:00

I've warned you before, do NOT use the number 3, nor can you use or wear my lucky number...00 and I said this because #00 is my lucky number and if any article of clothing is in gold, silver, or platinum metallic with the #00 imprinted, it shall never, ever be used for any reason. One who refuses to heed this warning will result in being jinxed, hexed, hoodooed, or cursed for the duration of one's lifetime.

2008-08-06T13:06:00.003-04:00

Beware the Interaktiv One, Teshawn LeVarr Edmonds

Like I said before, when you go the Olympic Games, Winter or Summer, regardless of location, DON'T be an such an asshole. I don't give anyone's rat's ass about this and that. You try this in Beijing, Vancouver, or London, chances are that they'll deport you. If you fail, you're finished, you test positive, it's the end of the line for a couple of years, and you mess up, you suffer the most EPIC FAILURE EVER and there will be no tomorrow, there will be no next year, there will be NEVER be a next time, no repeats...EVER! If you, the athlete in question, are shooting for is a medal and/or a Guinness World Record, or simply a world record or Guinness record, or whatever the hell you want to call this, that's all you're getting because the rest of your Olympic Team will be systematically destroyed by the adidas-, Nike-, Mizuno-, and Speedo-clad athletes and officials of the United States National Olympic Team and if your or your team succeeds then some members of the said athletes or teams will be destroyed by the means of the "Curse of Teshawn LeVarr Edmonds," also known to many as the "Curse of the Unlucky Threes" and by nimble hands of the Interaktiv One myself, Teshawn LeVarr Edmonds, or TLE. Also, I, will place this jinx upon any an athlete or team who fails at a said event or discipline, no matter what it is, and any member of the Edmonds Family who comes to or with me, TLE, to a location away from the City of New York will also be jinxed as well. So all athletes and officials, including members of the United States National Olympic Team, beware my jinx and the number 3 to avoid an ultimate EPIC FAIL!

I'm getting ready to retire my year-and-a-half old Dansko Pro Clogs, which I, TLE, have worn since Xmas Day 2005 (season 2005-06). I may want a pair of open-heeled clogs for right now (Sa21.06.2008), most likely the Tessa Clogs (R) brand Mountain Clogs (clogs with convertible strap), which I want in black below.
Or alternately, will want the cow-printed (black/white cow) clog, once again shown below.

I checked http://www.tessaclogs.com/ for the value of the pairs in question. The black leather Mountain Clog is $75 (Lv.04) and the black/white cowprinted clog is $89 (Lv.05)--a $14 difference. I'll ask my mom for advice, but may decline my wishes due to financial issues. The Mountain Clog will be the one that is going to be personalized and NOT the cowprinted one above.

That is super cool! Barefeet with red leg warmers and black tights is so ultra massive. Yoga and/or Pilates would be useful for such an outfit.

I could have sworn I've seen other barefooters, or it's just me, TLE as I still part of a mandatory barefooting week (Thursday-Tuesday). Even Kellbelle (Kelly Brianne Clarkson) was barefoot and sockfoot on both appearances of Jimmy Kimmel Live (Kimmel, a man from Brooklyn, New York). I don't believe it! I could have also been barefoot myself for the entire week with two pairs of legwarmers (black, light heather grey), midnight navy blue skinny jeans, black Diadora track pants, black turtleneck and an black-with-white trim adidas 1/2-zip jacket. I could have also worn my favorite pair of red socks.

BTW, if you joke, you choke, you bloke.
