Making jewelry is not as easy as it seems, but a conservative is a man with two perfectly good legs who, however, has never learned to walk forward. I am not a conservative. I make jewelry.

Keep the change, but I'm gonna hold on to my receipt.

In "I'm having the worst run ever" news, my main man Shyne has changed his name and plans o fight the power. My NYC connects tell me that Shyne switched the game up and converted to Judaism. Oh yeah, he also changed his name Moses Michael Leviy.

Well that's nice EbenGregory but is that all you got?

No.

Speaking of fighting the power.the Belize born rapper, who's currently serving a decade in prison for a 1999 club shooting, plans on challenging a ruling that froze his assets. See Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice Michael Garson ordered that any money the jailed rapper receives from royalties and record deals be held, until civil lawsuits filed against him by the victims are resolved. All compliments of New York's revised "Son of Sam Law" - which bars criminals from profiting from their crimes.

Well that sucks. What's Shyne's attorney have to say about this?

Here's Shyne's attorney Oscar Michelen on Shyne's money being frozen: Shyne was the sole support of his family. They're in very difficult financial circumstances. Shyne's new record deal is in no way related to the crime. The law's gone overboard. We're hoping the judge will let his mother dip into a $500,000 advance from a five-album deal he signed with Island/Def Jam in March 2004.

Oh really?

Here's attorney Debra Reiser, who represents one of the victims of the 1999 shooting, on Shyne's money being frozen: Those funds are for the crime victims. That's what the law says. He's trying to circumvent the law for his own purposes.

The bad thing is Shyne will not be eligible for parole until August 2009, and at the latest will be released from prison on March 12, 2011. That's too bad, but maybe I can cheer you up...

Here's some jewelry being dropped by EbenGregory on Shyne's assets being frozen: Money is like a sixth sense without which you cannot make a complete use of the other five.

For the record, I don't necessarily agree with everything I say.
