I Pity The Woman Who Takes Relationship Advice From Steve Harvey Alone!

Don’t be a fool ladies. Oprah may have found his shtick funny but it’s not as if she’s going to stop whatever works for her life with Stedman to adopt Steve’s rules of engagement. I blame best friend Gayle who clearly lacks some critical thinking skills and knowledge of what’s happening in today’s dating [...]

Monday Link Time

Howard Dean Gets A Gig – It’s about time we get to hear from him. I still don’t accept the excuse about not meshing or whatever excuse was used to justify Dean not being part of the Obama administration. Not when the agitators and combatants got positions and not when others with questionable ties [...]

Tyra Did Her Own Show on Teen Dating Violence

Phew I didn’t have anything to record this with but it was more harrowing than the Oprah episode from last week. I see parallels in how there’s been a lot of social gains but other core basics have been ignored and a lot of social ills have emerged more virulent than ever. Apparently the [...]

First You Get Jacked For Your Bags – Now It’s For What’s In ‘Em

I read this and asked myself if it was April Fool’s Day yet, but alas it’s not. Apparently there was a sting operation that went down where airline contractors where stealing items out of our checked bags. This went down in St. Louis and they claim it was only one airline, but how much [...]

Tori Amos Debuts New Material at SXSW

This was the one year I really wish I had gone to SXSW and could’ve paid cash for it. I know you can volunteer but already heard from some locals the experience isn’t pleasant. So I guess I didn’t want to go that much. There were some great panels including Blacks in Tech, and [...]

Have You Checked Out Dhani Tackles the Globe?

Well it’s about time we get to see a Travel Channel show with Black people! We do go places you know. I would love to see a show with a regular person versus an NFL star but this is a good start. If we watch the show and petition the network for more shows [...]

Hard To Believe People Still Think Like This

Via the UK Guardian: Iris Robinson, the Democratic Unionist MP who referred to homosexuality as an abomination, will not be prosecuted after official complaints were made to the police over her remarks. The Public Prosecution Service (PPS) in Northern Ireland confirmed today it was not proceeding with an investigation into the MP’s comments. Robinson, [...]

Old School Friday

This week’s meme is songs with the word “Baby” in the title. I immediately thought of TLC. They had some really cool videos but they could also perform live, hence the footage from their Apollo appearance. You thought I was done, didn’t you. I had to include the song that TLC famously turned down [...]

Highlights from PBO on Leno

I would’ve posted the full interview but all personal videos have been pulled from Youtube over a copyright infringement flag. Mind you the news organizations are able to rerun portions to their hearts content, but the little people…not so much! Here’s the Twitter stream of messages about the interview – and I just found out [...]

Condi Rice Continuing Her Lap Dance of Lies for Bush

Dr. Rice was the solo guest on Rose’s show. She is articulate, intelligent and cunning. I’m certain she has many stories to tell – including a promised book about her parents that I’d definitely read. She is an anomaly and would be considered atypical to the usual portrayals of Black women people are used to [...]
