Lil Mama on some other ish

Not sure what inspired this. T-Pain maybe?

And this one. Flight attendant bring your own uniform day...I guess.

Phelps on notice

America's new golden boy Michael Phelps faces a three month competitive swimming ban by USA Swimming, following photos of him inhaling marijuana at a bar.

Although not an illegal doping substance, the committee wanted to send a message showing that he was indeed wrong for the drug usuage.

Along with his suspension, Phelps' contract with Kellogg Co. will not be renewed. The company decided that his actions were not in line with their image.

Personally, I really can not disagree with any of it. Hell, Kobe loss endorsements despite his innocence in 2003. When you step onto that world stage be prepared to give your life up for full disclosed viewing.

Surviving the economy by any means

So apparently there is this woman that has devised a “get rich quick scheme” that includes having a bunch of children. No I am not referring to the many single mothers across the country that continue to breed and depend on Temporary Assistance for Needy Families as a permanent source of income. Nadeya Suleman has a different plan.

The 33 year old mom of 14 (including the octuplets) plans on attaining some type of media-drive fame. For doing what you ask? Simply put, for having children. I do not mean to undervalue the birthing process, but what type of job is that? Besides the obvious, she plans on exploiting her children. But also, giving birth does not require any special skills. It is not a talent or an art that can be perfected.

Suleman is in the works with a publicists to schedule talk show appearances and interviews. The biggest one mentioned, Oprah. If Oprah does grant her request, then I will have one more reason to dislike her.

Skinny jeans and the men who wear 'em

While checking out other blogs, as I like to do occasionally, I ran across one about skinny jeans. More specifically if men should wear them. The writer was pretty neutral, admitting that he had not been exposed to a lot of dudes wearing them. The comments that followed were all over the place. One man labeled it an “Atlanta thing”.

While some might label it as gay or feminine, I do not. Personally, I think wearing jeans of any fit (loose, relaxed fit, slim straight, or skinny) with a deep sag (ass out) is gay. Even more gay are the dudes that wear them with brightly colored cartoon underwear. Why not wear a sign saying, “Look at my ass”. LOL.

My only caution on the skinny jean (as with anything else) is that they are not for everyone. So if you are the big cock diesel linebacker type dude , they are not for you. Likewise if you have the beer belly going or some hidden curves, then they are also not for you.

But for us slim cats --- finally a pair of jeans that fit. Lol. My slim straights fit like relaxed fit jeans. So I don't have a problem wearing a pair of skinny's. Hell, I probably wear the same size as Pharrell.

How do you feel about men in skinny jeans?

50 Cent going hard on top artists

"...First they said that faggot hot,
then they let that junkie shine."

Fifty is up to his usual antics again publicly dissing other mainstream artists. In a recent radio interview, he targets Fat Joe, Kanye West, and Lil Wayne. Straight from the horse's mouth (no pun intended):

On Kanye's 808 & Heartbreaks, “I'm excited he got away with it. It's supposed to be a brick, a cinder block”. He also took jabs at Kanye's sexuality, citing the tight clothes as “irregular in a straight world”.

On Wayne, “I don't see him as competition. I mean he has to have a lot of consistency before we put him in a space and feel he's equivalent. He's a talented artist, but my consistency will break his neck”.

In general, “I want to see who gets out of pocket”.

The whole outburst was funny really. The radio personalities (that are nobody's for the record) blew his head up. Kanye most likely will not respond, but answer with another tight album. A tight album that will check 50 Cent once more, like the Graduation did Curtis back in 2007. If Wayne, well when Wayne responds, it's over. The public loves their Lil Wayne. Try again 50 Cent. In short the interview can be summed up as a stunt for Before I Self Destruct, which is set to be released next month, February 3rd.

UF ranked #1 and BCS National Champs

I guess I am a little late, but congratulations guys.

As Janay put it, "I am finally happy to be paying tuition".

Go Home

I hate to call this man an idiot. The fact that he's 71 years old won't allow me to call him an idiot. But really Roland Burris? Did the Democrats not make it clear that you would NOT be seated? I get that you were appointed by Gov. Blagojevich (the dude with the flyyest haircut in America, lol). But that in itself was a joke. For all we know, you could have been the highest bidder.

Don't waste your money trying to fight it. Take the appointment as a compliment, but keep it moving. Yes, there are currently no African-Americans in the Senate. But clearly, that's not why they don't want you. A wise man once told me (on a completely unrelated subject), "Just keep your things in order and they will seek you".
