Time for...I Don't Make This Up!!!




So today I had several errands to run. First I had to go and get my daily cup of coffee and that led me to Dunkin Donuts. I get there and I am behind 4 people. The lady right in front of me, forgot to decide what she wanted (while we were waiting and decided to make up her mind right at the counter) so she is sitting there and she finally orders. She wanted a croissant with something on it and a coffee with creamer and "no sugar" then she gets her coffee and she holds up the line again and asks for a few packets of "sugar", if I could have slapped her I would have, why are people so dumb??? The lady could have put the sugar in for her, trust me she would not have put that much.

Then I had to go to the post office and as usual there is this long line (Does every post office only have one person working the counter?). I made sure that I had packed the items I wanted to send in the priority mail box (you can stuff it as full as you want in the priority boxes and it costs the same no matter what). I get in line and the person at the counter looks like she is trying to send a computer through the mail (in the computer bag, LOL). I said to myself here we go again. I am thinking she tried this before because she told the lady behind the counter that she needed a box. The lady behind the counter did not have a regular box behind the counter, that would fit the computer bag so she had to get this: sign off her terminal and got the back. I was like this is not happening. Then the lady behind the counter came back and told the lady how much it would cost for the box and shipping stuff (tape, etc.) she was like, that is ok I will go to Fed Ex, I started to grab her and say no you will not, after you have been holding up the line for 15 minutes now. So she leaves ( I'm giving her a blank stare, behind my shades) and then the next character approaches the counter. This guy was sending a small bag that looked like he had just went to burger king and he was sending the leftovers in the same bag to somebody. The lady at the counter told him he needed an envelope, somehow he got a priority mail envelope (but he had not filled out the mailing label) she asked him to fill it out to the side and he could come back up when he was done. Fast forward to when he finishes filling out the mailing label and this is when I wanted to pull out the flashlight and point it in is eyes to see if he was on drugs or something. He told the lady that he wanted to use his (pre- moistened stamps - this means that all you have to do is pull and stick) stamps to pay for the postage, so they worked that out and then he asked the lady behind the counter for some water. I was like, OMG, is he thirsty, she was even blowed. He told her he wanted the water so he did not have to lick the stamps that he was going to use to pay for the (flat rate) envelope. She said the stamps have adhesive behind them all you have to do is peel and stick them. I just held my head down in shame and dismay. Mind you we all hear him because we are all waiting so patiently for our turn. I don't even think he got it because he was looking like he had birds flying over his head. LOL!!!
I mean sometimes I wonder if you need a high school diploma to go to the post office. How long have they been making postage stamps that don't need water for application???
Let's do better people, Please!!!

First Up The Monique Show on BET

O.K., I love Monique but why??? Her show did get me watching/purchasing the entire 4 seasons of Lincoln Heights on Itunes (which I loved) but why is she so "over the top"? I mean first of all, people already think that my people are loud, so why does she come out on the show screaming all that nonsense! Plus the last show I saw with the Queens of Comedy (Laura, Sommore and Adele) made me think that Sommore has beef with Monique, even though they acted like they were all the best of friends. No matter what, when someone is doing better then someone else and you all started at the same place, there has to be a little envy and I think Sommore is that lady. First she brings out this pic of Moniques' current husband, as the only picture she could find that reminded her of the good ole days on the road with the Queens of Comedy. My question is: Why is it important for Sommore to let Monique know that she may or may not have had her man??? (Jealousy is a terrible thing). Then Laura decided to cook some food on top of an iron in some tin foil (aluminum foil, people's) knowing that Monique is on a diet, she can't eat that stuff...LOL!!! I think she may have been implying that Monique is hungry and that she was talking all that mess before about skinny women and she is turning into that girl before our eyes. Good look on the new you Monique by the way. Monique looks great, and I need the number to her stylist, because her hair, shoes and dresses are the business. The show is great, but all the extra stuff just makes you want to fast forward.
Check out this website for Sommore's Video Comedy titled: The Queen Stands Alone. Props for continuing to pave the way for women comics.

What's Up???

I have to say, I have been neglecting this blog! I think I am going to start posting comments about the daily news I hear and add random pics here and there. I hear a lot of interesting things on the daily about everything from fashion to politics. I hope you enjoy reading and not just looking at pics. It's something different...Smooches.

Well all right....

Mashonda (Swizz Beat's not so ex wife from this Tweet) Confronts Alicia Keys who is the mistress. Messy!!!

On Saturday 26th September 2009, @MashondaLoyal said:

After having a great evening with my son and enjoying some fun twit chat, I decided to sign off and get some work done. However, a few hours later I was advised that I should check @aliciakeys twit page. I've never reached out to her on twitter before. I feel our issues are a lot more serious than a website conversation. Not to mention that I've reached out to her many times in the beginning of this whole thing, as any wife would do. Unfortunately, I never succeeded in getting a response. The 1st time I meet AK, my husband introduced us to each other at an event. ( I have no choice but to call him my husband, until he is not anymore) In the messages that I sent to her (AK), I made it very clear that on the contrary of what she might be hearing, I am still married to my husband, living with him and just had a child. Its been two years and I still have not received a response. What I do receive, is constant displays of selfishness and dis concern to me and my son.

I was a fan of AK's last album, we were both signed to J Records and I always checked up on her projects. I sang her songs and admired her for creating Superwoman and Karma, I would never deny her, her talent. I believed in her until I found out she was possibly sleeping with my husband. The affair was denied by both, until it was finally admitted months later.

Already I can hear some of you saying " why are u blaming her, You cant make someone leave their wife, You cant break something that's broken". Well, my marriage was not broken, as far as I knew we were celebrating our sons birth and getting ready to celebrate our 5 year wedding anniversary . Call it blind love, whatever. I call it being a devoted wife.. As far as me blaming her and not blaming him, that's false. Me and my husband have worked out our differences. We are in a good place as people and as parents. I accept his choices and I am comfortable enough with myself to move on. I am so very blessed in many ways.

My concern with AK is no longer the fact that she assisted in destroying a family but that she has the audacity to make these selfish comments about love and wanting to be with someone, even after knowing their situation. How is this the same Superwoman that I sang out loud with in my truck? I ask myself sometimes.

If you are reading this Alicia, let me start by saying, you know what you did. You know the role you played and you know how you contributed to the ending of my marriage. You know that I asked you to step back and let me handle my family issues. Issues that you helped to create.
I'm not saying everything was perfect all the time but no relationship is perfect. We made a vow to God and I believe you should have respected that, as a woman. I know you owe me or my son nothing but I just wish you would've handled things more carefully. I'm not judging you, I put you and the whole situation in the hands of God, the Higher Power. Just know that as a woman, I expected so much more from you. I never had intentions on reaching out to you this way but after reading your twits tonight, and the constant disregard, you left me no choice. I feel that after 1 and a half years of you hiding this affair and acting like it doesn't exist, that now is the time to confront it, since you talk so openly about it now

This is not a publicity stunt, I don't have a record coming out. I just need to close this chapter in my life and that means confronting our issues. There is a small child involved. His dad loves him to death and he wants to spend more time with him but hes afraid because he knows we don't have a relationship. This is my main concern. My son NEEDS his dad and I NEED to be comfortable with you. For him!

I know many will see my point and many will not be able to look into what's real because they only want to see Alicia Keys the celebrity, not the human. This is not for the "people", this is for you. Like I said I was left no choice but to reach out to you this way. By now, I'm sure you want to find a balance in this as well.

I read your tweets tonight and I felt they were very insensitive. You have no idea how much pain I was caused because of this affair. Its baffling to me that you don't understand what I might have gone through with this situation. I don't consider myself a victim anymore, Ive learned alot from this! I just ask you to try and be a bit more realistic and delicate to the situation, at least until my divorce is final. I felt me attending the party would have been a starting point for us, since you shook my hand after I offered it, but I suppose I was wrong.

If its so, that you and my husband are meant to be together, then God bless you both and I hope you never have to deal with what I did. I would not wish it on my worst enemy. If you two being together forever is the case, its more of a reason for us to get along, because I'm not going anywhere. Theres a child to be raised.

To answer your tweet, choose smart over spark. Sparks burn everyone, be smart! Its simple actually, just think of the shoe being on the other foot.

Stay blessed and lets work this thing out with respect and dignity.

Bottled H20 & Tap any difference???

I drink a lot of bottled water, I hate to think about what is in the water that comes out of the faucet, but when I read this article I was shocked, but not so much:
Dasani, a Coca-Cola product. Despite its exotic-sounding name, Dasani is simply purified tap water that’s had minerals added back in. For example, if your Dasani water was bottled at the Coca-Cola Bottling Company in Philadelphia, you’re drinking Philly tap water. But it’s not the only brand of water that relies on city pipes to provide its product. About 25 percent of all bottled water is taken from municipal water sources, including Pepsi’s Aquafina
Scan the labels of the leading brands and you see variations on the words “pure” and “natural” and “pristine” over and over again. And when a Cornell University marketing class studied consumer perceptions of bottled water, they found that people thought it was cleaner, with less bacteria. But that may not actually be true. For example, in a 4-year review that included the testing of 1,000 bottles of water, the Natural Resources Defense Council—one the country’s most ardent environmental crusaders—found that “about 22 percent of the brands we tested contained, in at least one sample, chemical contaminants at levels above strict state health limits.” (source)
I drink a lot of Zephyrhills bottled water, and I have heard that some of this water does not even come from Zephyrhills. Why I continue to drink it, I have no idea.

New Hair Do:Michelle & Ciara

Women, and ecspecially black women, have the option of adding extensions and wearing wigs to protect their hair or to change thier overall look. I have to say that Michelle and Ciara know this all too well. I have been wearing weaves and wigs for a long time and I know from just looking at these pics that Michelle has a weave (sew in) and Ciara has on a wig. If I am wrong, I am wrong, but I am sure that this is nothing new to these ladies. Antything makes the news these days.....

Bald/Shaved Heads: But Why???

Ok, I have short hair (like Rihanna) but why are women everywhere shaving their heads? Is it too hot outside, did they get a bad cut, are they crazy....??? I have to say that Brittany is not the first and definitely not the last to folly this trend, but usually when a woman shaves her head, something is going on in her personal life that has cause her to go temporarily insane.

RHOA & B fights Hunger


The Real Housewives of ATL starts July 30 on Bravo the show has replaced basketball wifey Deshawn with Kandi Burruss who was one of four members in the female group Xscape. There is not a whole lot of information out there relating to Burruss, however, after her five years with Xscape (1992–1998), Burruss tackled a solo career from 1998-2006. During her solo years, she focused on her song writing. Most notably, Burruss and a former bandmate wrote “No Scrubs” for TLC back in 1999 and the song achieved great success. A year later, Burruss released her debut album Hey Kandi. After lack of album sales, Burruss was dropped by her record label Columbia Records. Over the course of her career, Burruss has written numerous songs and most recently formed the group Peach Candy with an Atlanta, Georgia partner named Rasheeda (Source).

Cavs sign ownership deal with China group that could make Lebron James the first bball billionaire....

With an eye on spreading the game on a global scale, the NBA has been quietly pushing for an international group to become involved in ownership on a minority level. And with a huge fan base already in China—mainly because of Houston All-Star Yao Ming(notes)—the league has entered into several ventures with the nation to develop players and build arenas to NBA specifications.

Huang and others in the group attended Games 1 and 2 of the Eastern Conference finals in Cleveland. On Friday, they sat courtside and watched James hit a game-winning 3-pointer in the final second to give the Cavaliers a 96-95 win and even the best-of-seven series which resumed Sunday night.

If approved, the deal would provide marketing opportunities for the Cavaliers and James, who is eligible to become a free agent in the summer of 2010. The 24-year-old MVP, who is already among the league’s most popular players in Asia, has stated he wants to become the first billionaire athlete. His brand overseas could be enhanced by playing for a team with Chinese business partners.

There has been ongoing speculation that James will leave Cleveland to play in a larger market like New York or Los Angeles because of the vast business opportunities. But James—and his corporate sponsors like Nike—have broader goals and may be able to attain them by tapping into China’s colossal consumer marketplace without him ever leaving Cleveland.

James has never given any indication he wants to leave the Cavaliers, who drafted the Akron, Ohio, native with the No. 1 overall pick in 2003. He won a gold medal with the U.S. team last summer at the Beijing Games and has made four trips to China, including one with the Cavs during the preseason two years ago.

“It’s a big market,” James said before Game 3. “They love the game of basketball. I’ve been over there the last four or five summers. It should be good. It should be fun.”

10 QUESTIONS:

2. Have you seen BBC's "Misstresses"???

3. Isn't CW's "The Game" a show you can't miss???

4. "Can you brush them?" – Elisabeth Hasselbeck, asking rapper Lil Wayne about his diamond-encrusted teeth, on The View




5. Did you watch Making the Band 4 Season Finale? Didn't Shannon (ex member of Danity Kane look like an old J-LO)???





6. Why does Keri Hilson keep gettin flip at the mouth with Beyonce??? Beyonce done got so sick and filthy with benji's she can't spend:


**DIVA**


Stop the track, let me state facts
I told you give me a minute, and I’ll be right back
Fifty million round the world
And they said that I couldn’t get it
I done got so sick and filthy with benji's I cant spend
How you gone be talkin sh**? You act like I just got up in it
Been the number one diva in this game for a minute

7. Did Kelis read Carmen Bryan's (Nas' first baby mammy's) book?




8. Why. Did. Cassie. Mess. Up. her head???

9. Is Bad Boy Records still relevant???

Bad Boy is important," he (Diddy) explained in a video. "We have not sold out and all this stuff, we trying to do these types of records over here and those, we make Bad Boy records. And that's preserving your brand, and the thing that's bigger than Bad Boy is we are the last label standing. No disrespect to the other labels, but there is no Roc-A-Fella. There is no Ruff Ryders, there is no Death Row. So if this label doesn't make it, this is the last of the labels and that means nobody else can come out with a label. Then it just turns into production deals."

10. After reading this (see below) will you purchase Rick Ross' baby mammy's new book???

I looked at my watch, it was 4:30pm on January 21, 2009, the day I had been waiting to come for eight months. It was the day of the deposition in the child support case I had filed against the father of my third son, William Leonard Roberts Jr. also known as the big-time rapper (not the notorious drug dealer, don’t get them confused) Rick Ross.

I had started this battle against William 17 months earlier after our tumultuous four-year relationship filled with passion and pain. My lawyer Ileana M. Almeida had spent the last eight months trying to get Will’s lawyer Allan Zamren to make Will do the deposition for the case. They’d canceled two times already so I was surprised that William had finally showed up and was glad we were gonna to get things going. Ever since he’d become a celebrity, Will had been a different person. That mixed with his touring and promotions schedule and the life of a rap star is what made it so hard for anything in the child support case to move forward. His attitude also made things difficult.


The Black Money Scam: You Heard????
Nigerian Conman Caught Doing The "Black Money" Scam






People, People, don't send money you may or may not have to a foreign country, don't give them your bank account number and don't send them your information unless you know for sure that the transaction is reputable. The best advice (and when in doubt) I can give you is to use your common sense!!!
Sometimes shopping Trumps working (especially when you don't really have to work):


At a recent stop in Vienna during her (I AM...) tour, the US pop star Beyonce has angered a high-brow art museum in Vienna by sending a look-a-like to her own special personal tour of the museum, while she went shopping, according to newspaper reports here Wednesday.Beyonce, who gave a concert in Vienna on Tuesday, decided to skive off and do some shopping instead, sending a look-a-like to the museum and be photographed.


She wouldn't have fooled nobody in the U.S.A. (is she wearing high waisted jeans???)
