repost from 2010...


Valentine's Day!

Is it a holiday for lovers?

Is it a holiday for suckers?

You be the judge...

Valentine's Day is the holiday for love. Holiday? When did it become a holiday? My first memory of Valentine's came when I was in the 3rd grade. I had to give candy to my classmates (including the dudes) and exchange cards with the girls. Ironically, I had 2 special cards that were gonna go to my 2 Valentines...Catina & Carolyn, who were best friends...LOL.

Back then, Valentine's Day was fun because you would find out the girls in your class who liked you.

Nowadays, Valentine's Day ain't the same.

I mean, there is still a girl in my life who gets a card. And my mom still gets a card.

But society has commercialized the day so much that people who don't have Valentine's are made to feel bad.

Maybe we're just too old now and things ain't what they used to be.

Or maybe...people have turned something that used to be special into a money makin' venture.

Lovers or suckaz? I dunno.

Enjoy the "holiday" folks. LOL

Sometimes people throw these words out when they speak of others. The descriptions are vastly unfounded. Not this time. These words accurately describe the late James Yancey...aka J Dilla aka Jay Dee.

He was one of the music industry's most influential hip-hop artists, working for big-name acts like A Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul, Busta Rhymes and Common. J Dilla became highly regarded, most notably for the production of critically acclaimed albums by Common, Busta Rhymes, A Tribe Called Quest, The Pharcyde, and Erykah Badu. He was a member of Slum Village and produced their acclaimed debut album Fan-Tas-Tic (Vol. 1) and their follow-up Fantastic, Vol. 2.

Jay Dee was born on February 7, 1974. He lived for...and bled for hip hop. Unfortunately, J Dilla died from lupus on February 10, 2006, three days after his 32nd birthday and the release of his final album Donuts. He was taken from us far too soon. He was a gift to hip hop. Long before there was a Kanye West, there was J Dilla. I miss him and his music. He lives on.

Just press 'PLAY'

Happy Birthday, J Dilla

random thoughts...

i was surprised that people didn't believe that the Egyptian government "turned the Internet." think it can't happen here...think again

wonder how many people would go crazy if the Internet was turned off? *raises hand*

it was 70 degrees yesterday. can't beat a warm day in January

the government are getting rid of the color codes. good! never paid attention to those things anyway

never understood why dudes wear their best suits to a smokey, sweaty club

i wanna take piano lessons

y'all can't front...Arsenio had a dope show

last week marked the 25th anniversary of the Space Shuttle Challenger tragedy. i remember it like it was yesterday. we watched it live on tv in our class. i was in the 7th grade. when it exploded, we sat there in silence for about 15 seconds b/c we weren't sure what happened. i remember our teacher crying. it was crazy

the Challenger tragedy hit close to home because one of the astronauts was a brother named Ronald McNair. he was from Lake City, South Carolina...a small town about 30 miles from my hometown.

i really hope this is the last year of the NBA Slam Dunk contest

i won't say Jay Cutler quit on his team but his body language was horrible

do women still use the hot comb?

i saw a commercial for pajama jeans the other day. never heard of it before that. do people wear that?

hey John Boehner...stop cryin'. you're a grown man.

do y'all remember Tang? i used to love this drink

following celebrities on twitter will make you realize how dumb some of them really are

are you hungry???

They say that fast food kills.

I guess you'd rather die from food than a bullet, right? I'm not gonna say that I eat healthy every day. I try to balance what I eat. I mean...I enjoy a good burger as much as the next guy but I don't over do it.

Recently, The New York Daily News published an article about some of the most unhealthy foods. I thought I'd share a few of them that made the list...


Meet Denny's new Fried Cheese Melt, which is basically fried cheese encased in more fried cheese, wrapped in fried bread. For just $4, you can risk your life by consuming, 'four fried mozzarella sticks and melted American cheese grilled between two slices of sourdough bread. It is served with French fries and a side of marinara sauce.' Yeah, because who doesn't need fried carbs on the side of fried carbs.

The much-hyped lasagna sandwich, considered the first of its kind, is making (big) waves. The extravaganza, which has the same amount of fat as two McDonald’s cheeseburgers, consists of 'two thick slices of bread and a filling of diced beef in a tomato and herb sauce layered with cooked pasta sheets and a creamy cheddar, ricotta and mayonnaise dressing,' according to the Daily Mail.

If a chili dog is too boring for you, meet the Hamdog. It's a hot dog encased in a beef patty that's been deep-fried and drowned in chili, cheese and onions. It's topped with a fried egg and served on a hoagy bun with a side of French fries. Eat one, if you dare, at Mulligan's in Atlanta.

This KFC sandwich is a heart-stopping creation that layers two kinds of cheese with bacon and oozes 'Colonel’s sauce.' The twist? Instead of bread, two deep-fried chicken breasts round out the calorific concoction.

Everyone knows that a bacon cheeseburger is terrible for you - but sandwich one between a split, grilled Krispy Kreme donut, and you'd better have a set of defibrillator paddles handy. Called the "Craz-E-Burger," this 1,500-calorie burger was offered, amusingly, just outside the West Springfield, Mass., agricultural fair's 'Better Living Center.'

If you don't want to skimp on the most important meal of the day, stuff yourself with Carl's 830-calorie Breakfast Burger. It's 'a charbroiled all-beef patty, fried egg, crisp bacon, American cheese, hash brown nuggets and ketchup on a sesame seed bun.'

Throw in a side of Poutine, a Canadian staple consisting of French fries topped with cheese curd and slathered with brown gravy.

Fried mac-and-cheese. According to the recipe by the Food Network's Paula Deen, it's a square of macaroni-and-cheese wrapped in bacon, dredged in flour and egg, and coated with bread crumbs that is then fried in oil - peanut, of course, to be healthy.

Deep-fried Oreos are the standard-bearers, found at fairs and at confectioners across this great, fat land

One Arizona restaurant makes no beef about the healthiness of its burgers. The Heart Attack Grill menu boasts the Triple and Quadruple Bypass Burger, three or four beef patties stacked and covered with cheese and the usual trimmings. If you're over 350 pounds, they'll even let you eat for free. It doesn't seem like a sound business strategy, but neither does killing off your customer base.

Fatties everywhere, salute! Hardee's rolled out its Monster Thickburger at the precise time that other fast-food joints were unveiling healthier options, like salads and fruit cups. This 1,420-calorie monstrosity is 1/3 of a pound of angus beef, four slices of bacon, three slices of cheese and mayonnaise on a buttered bun. The company's CEO wasn't kidding when he said, this is 'not a burger for tree-huggers.'

If you thought tuna salad was for dieters, think again. The Quiznos large tuna melt maintains the dubious distinction of being the sandwich chain's unhealthiest sandwich, with 2,000 calories and 175 grams of fat. Catch one, if you can.

Are you still hungry??????
