New York Big Shots
The day was a rather somber one on Bob PoPo’s Yahoo! Live channel, as Bob and the rest of the citizens of New York came to grips with a court verdict in a prominent slaying of a young man by some NYPD Officers. While reflecting on the morning’s events with his close friend Dutty, Bob took some time to stand in the glow of the sun and appreciate the sublime beauty he finds in his own life.

As the light streaming into to Bob’s window literally reflected off of his cross and into the homes of the online chatters, we had a casual discourse about our own opinions regarding the complicated issues of race and privilege in relation to their bearing on the initial slaying itself and the acquittals of every NYPD officer involved. At one point, all of the reflecting that was going on bounced off various mirrors and ended up sending us images from outside of in Bob’s alley. Shown here is a pigeon taking off into the air from a ledge below, which we will let speak for itself, just as one would with a real, live pigeon:

Though many of us were certainly weighed down by the ponderous goings-on, life does have a way or reorganizing itself into more and more complex forms, and the initial anger that was so prevalent in the morning hours developed into a healthy upward-looking examination of various affirming principles, such as the so-called “48 Laws of Po.”

That’s a book I’d want to read…but we’ll see what happens with the G Code. Of course, amid all the excitement today, Bob still didn’t forget to give several shout outs to Yahoo! and its Yahoo! Live service, throwing up the Y! logo and even doing some Yahoo! Live-related freestyles that just might show up in a future YouTube video.

When all was said and done, and the evening was winding down, Bob had a bit of a headache. Still, he had realized that the experiences of this day and the emotions those experiences brought up are all part of his personal process of examining the world around him, and was genuinely grateful for the support of everyone in his native Brooklyn, the folks who come to be see him on Yahoo! Live, and, of course, his beautiful Angel!

Finally, I’d be remiss in my duties as a guy who makes YouTube videos about Bob PoPo if I didn’t tell you about the YouTube video I made specifically to include in this update. This is one I know a lot of people have been waiting for…that’s right - it’s The Apple Song!
