1.) I had planned to write about thugs tonight but I changed my mind. I just looked at the Ray J and Kim whats her name sex tape. Man that boy is on fire. Before I read Superhead's book I would of never thought that he was such stud. Let me tell you, from what I just viewed(esp minutes 25-30) that man is not to be played with. Sure he looks corny on BET trying to speak with a New York hood accent but in the sheets he got more game than most men walking. I was about to pull out the hard plastic and get my own game of tickle the button going. Anyway, if you want to see the video go to ybf, Natasha has a link. You will have to press play many times before the video starts to play but it is worth a look if you are as nosy and sick as I am.
2.) I noticed that a few bloggers that I like to read have put pass words on their blogs or have taken their blogs down.
Can the following people give a sister a password or let her know whats up:
Nneka
Lavender
Lovely Monai
LaGirlie in NYC
3.) If you checked out my blog roll you will see that beside some of the blogs listed I gave a brief summary of the blog or my opinion of the blog. There are a few blogs that I mention that are very well written. Well, one of the most well written blogs, and also one of my favorite bloggers is thinking about throwing in the towel. If you have lurked on her blog please let her know that you love her blog as much as I do.
Coffee please don't leave. You have no idea how attached I am to your blog. I think your blog was the second black blog that I discovered(right after afrochic). After reading through your archives I realised that this is something that we do(black people) and something that I can do. In the beginning it seems like you were experimenting with your blog. The first few entries were about how you and Cat spent your weekend but overtime you began to let us know more about the real Coffee. I love reading your writing and seeing how much you have grown and how you have dealt with the adversity that life has thrown your way. Please don't throw in the towel just yet.
4.) I notice that many of the blog I read are in some ways similar. Even when the writers are from different ethnicity and cultures there seems to be such similarities between some Bloggers that I wonder if they are related. I call these bloggers, blog siblings.
For example:
I think my blog sibling is
Shaquer because there are a lot of similarities in the things that we write about, our sense of humor and the fact that we both love cats.
Overwhelmed and
Tittyballs are blog siblings because they are able to convey there feelings in their blogs in such a way that you find yourself quite moved after reading a post. They also have a wicked since of humor that borders on naughty.
Acolyte,
Funky fresh and
Naijabloke - These dudes are soooooo very funny. That can take the most mundane event and make it into such a hilarious laugh out loud with tears running down your face and pee your pants funny story.
Afronerd , Stop snitching and the M
odelminority - These bloggers are so very smart but at the same time they discuss black issues in a way that will not scare off those who are not so academically inclined. These hood chefs serve brain food with a smile.
Please visit their blogs when you have a chance. Lavender Squirts, Excessive Diva and the
Mistress- These ladies discuss the x rated side of life in a manner that many of us are not used to hearing from a female on a regular bases(I like I like I like) . Although, I must say that the Mistress is like the diet version of the other two , she is still heavy and tastes good but will not make you tear up when you get on the scale.
Eb0nie and
Bedhlam because they are like that one cool older aunt who will take you to the side and tell you how life and men really are minus the BS. They state their feelings about things including men, friends or work and just say it. They live they way that I think women should, by our own laws and largely independent.
Afrochic and
Coffee because ladies have bougie tendencies and are sort of like black hipsters(I mean that in a good way) and I admire how they have opened themselves up through their blogs for the world to see.
5.) Brittney is out of rehab. Lets hope she gets her life together for the sake of her children. Say what you want, Naoimi Campbell is a bad chic. I know she likes to beat people down but that chic has true star power.
6.) I have yet to hear any African-Americans say that Obama is not black enough. That statement is the invention of some white reporters who decided to try some Willie lynch letter type tactics. Yes, his mother is white and his father is from Kenya but I think he has spent the better part of his life in this country(maybe I'm wrong) and he has been socialised as an African-American. Furthermore, he married a DARK-SKINNED black woman and not a Vanessa Williams look alike or a white woman. I think that says a lot in and of itself because so many black men who achieve what he has achieved, suddenly decide that black women are beneath them(upcoming post) and that is a problem of both African and African-American men(actually black men anywhere). Furthermore, if you listen carefully, reporters will refer to him as a black candidate whose mother is white, very very very rarely have I heard him referred to as biracial. I feel as if whites are trying to put up a clear wall between themselves and Obama when they call him a black candidate with a white mother.
7.) Is there really any difference between Hillary Clinton and Rudy Guillany(sp). For example, they are both leaning to the left on social issues and believe that government needs to control spending. Furthermore, isn't Rudy kind of weird for marrying his 1st cousin( they had a long marriage). In some ways I like Obama, Hillary and Rudy but I am very very very curious as to who will win the upcoming election.
8.) I'm so happy that spring is here. I am so sick of the cold weather. I must say that we had very little cold weather this year so maybe I should stop complaining.
9.) I want to take a vacation soon. I trying to decide if I should go international or keep it national.
10.) If there are any lurkers out there, can you introduce yourself. If you have a blog, hit me up, because I am always on the look out for new blogs.
