C-Gran No More Space in My Closet Pair # 224
CazalxDita: model 902-
I wear my sunglasses at night to spy on my girlfriend.....
Listen homie, Cazals is a G4 staple...Cazal is teaming up with Dita to re-release their most popular model the 902. Run you bout $750...this is grown man business. So if your paper ain't long step aside, because I will be bumping into you the club and spilling your drink. You know why? Because I can't see 5 feet in front of me, because I got my Cazals on in the club, and the boy C-Gran would tell me watch out, but he got his Cazals on, and Max is too busy looking at your girl's ass. So that leaves you with nothing but a long island ice tea on your shoes you copped from Aldos. In the words of a drunk Brooklyn dude "Pardon my Back!!" Get it Here.
Gentlemen's Game; The Mean Lean
First and foremost, always remember dating is a gentleman's game.
So you need to stock up your liquor supply in the crib, your selection says a lot about who you are. You can try to pour her a glass of Henney, but she may catch on that you are trying to get her "there" quickly. (Plus Henney signifies "I drink this shit that taste like a boar's backwash just because I was told by urban culture this is what men drink". You want something like the stroke you are hoping to hit her with later..smooth, sweet, strong (and leaves you with no burning sensation. lol) My recommendation Belle de Brillet Pear Liqueur. One sip of this will have you sounding like Senator Clay Davis from
(1 serving)
1 ½ ounces Belle de Brillet pear-cognac
1 ounce Absolut Vanilla Vodka
Gansta 101
So, your one of those who can't get enough of that gansta shit!! You listen to 50 Cent's "Many Men" every morning in the shower. And who knows what the fuck your capable of doing if they don't get your latte right at Starbucks. You know why..because you are gansta!! You keep it so real, that when that mother with the two children in the backseat driving that Volvo tried to cut in front of you- forget that she pointed and asked nicely- you curse her out anyway with your windows up..B#$%@!!
This is all you need right here: Gansta 101...contains American Gangster, Scarface, Casino, and Carlito's Way. The next time you're in Eyebar and one of those Washington Redskins' offensive linemen ask you to kindly move out of their way so they can get to the bar...think about what Joe Pesci from Casino would do.....(Caution: Do not let your inner Pesci get you hurt in the street!!)
You can pick this up at Amazon.com or try Best Buy.

Turntable Watch
Turntable Watch...sort of fresh...great for the off days. However, I don't think it will get you much cool points during the senior staff meetings. Run you about $60. Get them here.

This kids should be part of the G4 Crew!!
I thought G4 threw crazy parties...i respect this young boys swag...Corey Worthington threw one hell of a party when his parents were out. It attracted more than 500 people who terrorized the neighborhood. Not surprisingly, a large police smackdown and accompanying fines ensued. Surprisingly, Corey isn't sorry about nothin'.

When With Wifey... Restaurant 2941 (if she ain't beating she ain't eating!!)
(WWW) When With Wifey Posting written by C Gran aka Out the Game aka Lover's Lane
If you ever want to experience dinner at a five star restaurant, 2941 in Falls Church is the place to be. The ambiance is sexy and chic, the service is unbelievable and the food is astounding. Now with that said, this is not a place for the new girl, this is definitely a spot for wifey. Please believe 2941 will have your pockets light for a second, in fact you may want to save this receipt for a tax-write off; this is not a place for the miserly. However, this is a place for those who want to rub shoulders with DC’s elite. Lastly, make sure you come with the correct gear, sophistication is a must.

Video of the Week: Estelle- Wait a Minite
This chick is popping in the UK. Think she just signed to John Legend's new label. Remember who put you up on it first.
Absolut 100
I am not a huge fan of Vodka, but I have been hearing from some very credible lushes that Absolut 100 is definitely worth keeping in the crib. They tried to explain the difference in vodkas to me. Quite frankly, they all taste the same. And please don't tell me that good vodka doesn't give you a hang over argument!! Remember always drink responsibly.
Dear Scottward..
Dear Scottward,
I need some advice. When women come over it is hard for me to get the conversation rolling and break the ice. We just sort of end up just sitting there watching a movie. It just gets pretty boring after a while. It’s not that I am not interesting; it is just hard to get the conversation flowing smoothly.
Thanks,
Quietly Watching
Dear Quietly Watching,
Long gone are the days of popping in a DVD and half way through the intro making your move (ahh the good ole' days). Women want to be stimulated in their minds before they are in their bodies .Also there seems to be a real bad trend going on, women want to talk and get to know you before they sleep with you!!
The thing you must remember is that when women come over they want to feel comfortable. So always have your place neat, smelling good and at a comfortable temperature. Remember if she doesn't take off her shoes, she isn't going to take off her pants (if you're lucky she will put back on her shoes). I say this to say, if she feels at home and relaxed being around you it is a definite plus. So you have to have interaction between the two of you (and I do not recommend asking her to play Madden with you).
Here are two great solutions. First, a must have for any gentlemen- "The Book of Questions" by Gregory Stock. It comes in two versions. The regular version has some pretty deep questions about life, morality, and challenges. The second one is about "Love & Sex". Each Book contains about 250 questions so it makes for a long, stimulating conversation. It is a great way for you to learn a little bit about each other. The "Love & Sex" edition is a great way to gauge her level of freakiness as well.
Gentlemens Game's: Interior Design Tip: Floating Bookshelf
For those intellects who don't just want to pile their books in the corner, I have the perfect solution. The Floating Bookshelf. You can scoop this at the Container Store or even Barnes & Noble. It is pretty inexpensive way to keep your place neat, as well as highlight your personality by displaying the books you read.

Dear Scottward,
I am dating this girl and I really like her. However, she has a crazy ex-boyfriend. It's not that I am scared of him, but I have no time to deal with the drama that this situation may bring. Should I hold it against her that she used to date a psycho? Or should I just focus on our relationship and hope that he disappears?
Sincerely,
"Allergic to Crazy"
. Answer: This is a tough one. In a perfect world one's past relationships wouldn't be held against them - but in my world it unfortunately does. It can definitely be seen as a sign of poor decision making on her part. But give her the benefit of the doubt, because she must have some common sense to no longer be in the relationship.
I have had personal experiences like this, and while I may poke fun at this, it can be a very serious situation to be caught in. For example, I actually caught my first and only black eye over a chick. This dude straight sucker punched me when I wasn't looking!!
Anyway, here are some guidelines that may give you the answer to your question or at least clarify your situation:
Rule # 1: Don't think that you can go talk it out with him because these sorts of dudes are the worst. They don't think rationally or logically. He only cares about one thing, the possibility that someone else is sleeping with his girl. He knows personally how good the ass is, I mean he probably taught her all the nasty erotic shit she is doing to you now, and he knows it.
There is a new epidemic going around, that I like to call the "Dr. Phil Crisis". Dudes are more emotional than ever now. For certain guys, their girlfriend is the best thing they have going for them. Once they lose that, they snap, anding act crazy is a form of exerting and maintaining control over that person - because the other person in the relationship is forced to react.
Back in the day, a guy would only fight over their main girl - these days a dude will fight you over his jump-off. I read a news article about a guy that shot his girl's mom and grandmother before killing himself. Some dudes are crazy; they will kill you, her, and the dog.
Rule # 2: Properly gauge her involvement in the situation. Some women like the drama and would love nothing more for you to end up in a full out altercation so they can talk about it at the beauty salon on Saturday. I dated one girl whose ex lived on the same block. You think she would have told me.
Now if you really like her and the situation is serious recommend that she change her phone number (for the ex that calls 25 times a day). If she says something like, " I can't. I've had this number since freshman year", chances are she isn't serious about cutting ties with crazy-ex. If it's that serious, this is America - get a restraining order.
Ladies: Please, you cannot continue to let the crazy ex run off dudes in your life!! You are going to have to be proactive in stopping your madness.
So my advice to you, "Allergic to Crazy", let her go!! You have too much going on to have to look both ways in the street. Make those suggestions to her, but this is something that she is going to have to handle as a woman. It will make her a stronger and better person.
Find yourself a woman who makes better dating decisions. On a side note: If she feels scared or needs your help, then be a gentleman. Physical and emotional abuse is very confusing for many young women. Talk the situation over with her and come up with suggestions to diffusing the problem. For instance if she's scared offer to spend the night in her home. You may have to inform her sister, brother, mother, father or cousins (because they probably have no idea) to help you in dealing with him.
Be Safe,
Scottward

Now you have probably walked past this spot 100 times on your way to Pentagon City Mall. The Doubletree hotel actually has a revolving restaurant and lounge on the top floor.
You don't have to be a guest to enjoy this spot, so just walk right in and take the elevator all the way up. It has one of the best views of the city, and makes a full 360 degrees rotation every hour. So don't worry that the rotating will make you dizzy, but the drinks will. Fairly priced, and they actually have a DJ that plays music. They also have a karaoke night.

Gucci Wing Tip Chuck Tailors vs. Creative Recreation Ponti
Same look for less
The great debate over appropriate nightlife footwear is in full force. The issue is for those civilized individuals like myself who wear hard bottom shoes all week to work; we don't want to wear hard bottoms to party. We want to wear something a bit more comfortable.
Still, the issue becomes getting into a place with a strict dress code. Now my cousin would argue that a strict dress code translates to "a black party", because at mixed crowd parties or those tough to get into parties, all that matters is if you are buying bottles. They could care less about your feet. Either way, if you are looking for an alternative to traditional hard bottom shoes, and want some comfort when going out, let me recommend these two choices. They both provide the same look, one is just a tad bit more expensive than the other.
