I'm a bicyclist. I go about 5'10, 145lb. Which is good...for my health... but it means I can't fit in a shirt at Macys'Foleys'Dillards'Nordstroms worth a damn. Even the 'slim/fitted' shirts I try on there... they're all either tight at the neck and short at the arms or just too loose around the...

my hip-hop collection is very selective and lacking variety--i have almost all roots, wu, tribe, nas, gza, jay z, raek, mos, gangstarr, etc... so.. many albums, but by few artists i'd like to hear some new stuff, but, really, i dont have the money or desire to start picking up full albums...
