Here’s one reason to go out and hug a thug today…Rapper Young Jeezy presented gifts and a new van from the “Make Your Dreams Come True” contest to Tamara Jekins-Wilson and Davon Jenkins at Justin’s last night.??
Davon Jenkins [AKA Speedy] suffers from the crippling illness cerebral palsy and is confined to a wheelchair. His father is presently serving in Iraq in the military which has resulted in Mrs. Jenkins-Wilson having to physically lift her son day after day.
Jeezy flew members of Jenkins-Wilson?s family to Atlanta where he joined members of his own family for the special dinner and presentation at Justin?s restaurant. The maroon Dodge Caravan brought tears to Speedy?s mothers eyes, as Jeezy handed over the key. They were also given apparel from Jeezy?s clothing line 8732.? (Source)

Sorry I haven’t posted this week…I’m still in mourning for T.I. aka Clifford Harris, Jr.??I tried to show my support by going on a hunger strike until he is released (hoping I could lose 10 a few pounds this week), but?my will power sucks!?? Now….I don’t know about you, but the thought of not eating for 6 days does not give you energy and creativity.? Anyway, my hunger strike?didn’t?work….T.I.’s still locked up!
So…back to work I go!???Here’s a recap of the events this week:
?

Last but not least, T.I. appeared in court today on federal gun charges.? He pled not guilty and his attorneys have proposed that he be released on a $2.2 million bond and given house arrest.? The judge in the case has agreed to consider the proposal and has given his attorneys another week to gather additional information before he rules.? It has also been released that?T.I. was allegedly in possession 2 and 1/2 pounds of weed on the day of his arrest.?? What I find terribly odd is that he is accused of admitting to a federal agent that he smoked the weed in preparation?for BET Awards.? OK…who besides me thinks this is all a bunch of B.S.??? Can you just imagine him sitting on the curb conversing with the feds and saying….”yeah, it’s mine….and I just smoked it”…?? Whatever?!?!????

“I bet you niggaz think I’m livin it up
Til you see polices laughin as they pickin me up
Went from seeing how many bitches I could fit in the truck
To three hots and a cot, is you kiddin or what?
Fuck how many millions I got, nigga, so what if I’m hot
When I got prices on my head, feds rushin my spot
A million haters want me dead, forced to carry a gat …”
