Too Much To Ask?

i am currently watching the third season of veronica mars (an awesome show by the way; dont no y it got canceled....). so in this season, in addition to the usual mystery and mayhem, there's this strong vein of romance and love running through it. and boy has it got me feening.

noooo i DO NOT want to get married. but sometimes, especially when i'm watching ms mars do she ting :) i want so so bad to know how it would be to be loved. to have someone be totally into you. to see his eyes change when he glimpses you from afar. to instintively head for each other. have totally mind blowing sex. i no i no. but i think sex is better when u can you know each other. when u think so much alike you respond the same way.

ah well i'm just fooling myself yeh? love is just the dream that mills and boon and harlequin came up with to keep females idiotic and daft.

I'M A PC Microsoft Commercial - Windows Not Walls

Obviously everyone has seen the Apple commercials. They have poor PC stereotyped as a nerdy type and the Mac is this cool hip dude. Windows was smart enough not to challenge the claims made in the ads (hell they ARE true! VISTA SUCKS!!!). Instead, they put together a really cool ad showing the diversity of the people who still use PC. I just thought it was a really cool well put together ad and I thought I should share.

on a remotely related note.......YOUTUBE IS AWESOME!!!!

Moving

So I have moved into a new apartment. the moving process alone was gruelling. it took me a day and a half of painful labor to get all the boxes packed and moved into storage. then after i'd signed my lease etc, it took me 4 weekends of going back and forth to get everything i needed (and forgotten) down to my new place. now comes the really hard part: i am surrounded by boxes. big boxes small boxes some i have no idea what is in them. i have been wearing the same shoe to work for the last 3 weeks cuz i dont remember what box i packed my shoes in. my closet is a mess of clothes and hangers. i desperately need a holiday so i can clean up the mess that is my house. some haters might say thats how my house always is....true. but i'm planning to turn a new leaf now ok? wish me luck :(

Oh Obama!

So now there's a book out there revealing Obama as a clandestine Muslim drug addict who sits through tirades about plans for a black coup d'etat and nods and takes notes.

Apparently, this guy is riding high on his successful undermining of John Kerry's presidential bid in 2004. Already his new book which has a mouthful of a name I don't care to keep in my head, is No 1! on the New York Times bestseller list. Isn't it kind of sad? Especially considering that a similar book written by the liberals on John McCain didn't even hit anything much less a list. (and I don't think its because it was badly written). Oprah didn't even mention it. In addition, the author of this book is CONFIDENT of vast monetary sponsorship and endorsements.

Forget Obama for the moment. Yes I'm a die hard fan, and I am plotting to get rid of that cute wife of his (that space in his bed is MINE bitch!!). But lets take a step back. I'm black (DUH! right?) and I live in the south. So it is very disturbing that such an inflammatory book is actually SELLING. He has gotten tons of interviews and of course Fox News Network is lapping it all up. It is not about Obama anymore. Buying such a book and giving such a man the time of day says something about America. And its something I don't like to hear (or read....). For African women, I guess the female trumps the black dude, but for me its being black. I do not exaggerate when I tell you that in the little town where I live, there are places I wouldn't venture to once its dark. Not cuz I'm female, or because its not safe, but simply because I'm black.

Maybe I'm overreacting...........

"Obama Fatigue"?

There is a new development in the election front. People are getting tired of hearing about Obama. Is that possible? I mean, you finally have a BLACK man doing all the stuff only the old white folks and their prim and proper wives did. So yeah, I guess people got overexcited and talked him to death. I don't think he is being taken seriously as a candidate. He's become like a toy and people are using him like the token black guy they started allowing in movies and sitcoms. O look Obama made a fist bump. Hey Obama is off to Hawaii. I don't blame McCain for slyly comparing him to Hilton and Speares (or was it Lohan????.....who cares!!). The man has been relegated to the kind of celebrity reserved for finding pictures of Katie Holmes' new hair cut (which is really cute by the way).

I am a die hard Obama fan, but I have to admit, its been ages I last heard about his political views. His plans for the nation? Is this like a reverse ploy by the media. "Hey we don't want a black president, but we cant say that in public. What to do......Hey! I know! Lets exhaust the issue. Make a big deal out of everything he does until everyone's sick of him. Then when he's talking about serious issues no one will listen!" We all know how short an average American's attention span is.......

So what to do? Ask the media to back off? Advise Obama to stay under the radar? I couldn't say. I cant vote so this is just a spectator sport for me. I think ....no I KNOW black America needs a shining example. Its not right to make Obama the knight on the white horse, but right now he's the only educated black man black people might listen to. They've totally ostracized Cosby for telling them the truth (and I'm not very popular either to be honest....) and Jesse and Al just need to shut up. They're dummies with loud voices (empty barrels......).

There is hope for America after all!

I just watched a video about a school called Berea College. It is a small college in Kentucky that pays FULL tuition to ALL its students. It caters solely to low income families and is reputed to have been accepting women and blacks long before the 'Brown vs Board of Education' decision. They do it by combining the donations of alumni and generous donors. They also require that all the students in some work for the school. They however do not ask for more than 10 hours a week from the student (giving them ample time to study and PASS). They offer an adequate range of courses and they have all the popular pre-professional programs: pre-med, pre-law, pre-dent, pre-vet and even pre-eng which is not as commonly offered as the latter courses.

I think it is absolutely awesome what they are doing. I am not asking the Nigerians to, but any American reading this should make some sort of donation especially if you're BLACK.....or mexican (hey lets face it, what color are most of the low income families?). I definitely will! Why this school has not gotten more exposure I cannot fathom.
