1. "It's a great day for genocide/ (What's that?)/ Thats the day all the niggas died/ They killed JFK in '63/ so what the fuck you think they'll do to me?!?!?" - Ice Cube "When Will They Shoot?" 2. Sometimes all this shit makes me wanna revert back to my extra-militant self 3. Got me listening to old Ice Cube, PE and The Coup and shit 4. This Skip Gates fiasco is just getting way outta hand 5. I dont think the "Beer Summit" was of any use since both parties have essentially left the door open to still sue one another 6. I commend President Obama for trying to help but he cant do everything 7. With this being a matter of race and him being.....ya know....black.....and also being.....ya know.....the president I think the presumption of bias on his part is too much 8. The bottom line though is once they were both inside and Gates proved it was his crib that shoulda been the end. 9. I can understand his frustration and mouthing off once inside seeing as though he had just got home from China. Have you any idea of that plane ride and then to come home and hafta deal with this shit? 10. Part ...

For as long as I can remember I've always said that me and marriage would be a one shot deal. Im only getting married once. And we will make it work dammit! Point blank, period. Aint gon be no damn divorcing. Still feel that way actually. But in all honesty I suppose my overly fantasizing ass cant really make that call until Im knee deep in it. Real life often gets in the way of what we intend to do. No one marries with the intention of eventually divorcing the person you just swore to love, honor and cherish for the rest of your days. You said 'for richer or poorer, in sickness and health' and you were supposed to mean that shit! It seems that everyone wants it but everyone isnt willing to work for it and stick it out. The divorce rate is only getting higher. Everyone wants the marriage their grandparents had back in the day. Everyone wants to celebrate their 50th anniversary like Anna and Russell (That was a Cosby Show reference for those of you not following), or to use a real life couple, like Ruby and Ossie, but hell even THEY had an open ...

*I wrote this quite some time ago and unfortunately it's still very relevant.* Said to guest: Wow! Quail Eggs? You're gonna have to give me a minute to track those down for you. Said in my head: You want me to help you find a specialty store that sales quail eggs? Are you out your fucking mind? You think this is how I wanna spend my day? Fuck you and your quail eggs nukka! Regular eggs aint good enough for you? Get the fuck on with that bullshit!!! _____________________________________________________________________ Said to guest: Well the box office is all sold out so that pretty much only leaves us the option of independent ticket brokers. And as you know they usually charge double or sometimes even triple the face value. I can check with them to see whats available and give you a call back. Said in my head: 5 Wicked Tickets for today?!?!?! LOL. Yeah right! Tough luck nigga! THAT shit aint gon happen. You need to start making alternate plans now. Why dont you go ice skating or some shit? Even if I could find some tickets they'd probably be double or triple the face value. But your dumb ass would pay for them anyways, ...

Love is smiling at the sound of her name Love is encouragement Love is a Stevie song Love is a Nikki poem Love is being there when needed and it eating you inside when you cant be Love is stronger than pride Love is taking pleasure in pleasing her Love is nuturing Love is sacrifice Love is making her fall in love over and over and over again Love is playing their favorite song when they've had a bad day Love is brave Love is genuine adoration Love is selflessness Love is listening Love is not being afraid to be vulnerable Love is usually written all over your face Love is magic in a bottle Love is not wanting to be anywhere else Love is a kind gesture w/o expecting anything in return Love is giving Love is taking the ribbing from the fellas on her behalf Love is going the extra mile because you know they're worth it Love is an energy field Love is confident Love is patient Love is empathizing Love is communicating by eye from across the room when it's full of people Love is rebellious Love is possible Love is complicated but Love is worth it Inspiration : Tina's "Love Is" challenge, Love in various forms, being in love once, wanting to be in love again, and the magic of it all.

1. "And when the groove is dead and gone/ You know that LOVE survives/ so we can rock forever on" - Michael Jackson "Rock With You" 2. God bless Michael, Farrah, Chasity Turner, little Jada Justice, and their families 3. Live your life yall.  4. Go out and find joy. Make your own damn joy if you gotta. Just be joyful! 5. So I think I get that BET was trying to save time by not bothering to go through the nominees before they announced the award winners....but what was up with Jamie Foxx and Ne-Yo performing 3 times each?!?!?!! 6. And as for the BET Awards show overall.....welp I'll chalk it up to them only having 3 days after Michael's passing to change it up. Period. 7. Oh and one more thing.....after her performance is it safe to say that Beyonce is slowly but surely changing into the black Barbara Striesand? 8. Artest to the Lakers? If you cant beat 'em you join 'em I guess lol 9. It's gonna be a really different NBA this year folks 10.
