    The girl Bey is at it again. She’s got new music out – meh – a new campaign in the hopper for H&M – cute – and even old Rush Limbaugh’s ignorant self has put down his cup long enough to rant. Note, his rant was completely inaccurate and made…

    I stumbled across the video for Lose to Win recently, and was at first thrilled to see Fantasia back on the horse. Seems all I’ve seen of her recently has had nothing to do with her music and everything to do with the train wreck her life has become. This…

    I first heard this song in Mexico. Too much beauty – and sun and margaritas by the pool – had driven me temporarily into the shade of the room. I’d heard of Bruno Mars, but this was my first deliberate listen. I remember thinking, how ironic, a Puerto Rican star…

    JT is sooo back. He and Jay Z are pimpin’ so hard in this video it’s ridiculous. That scarf! LOL I’m lookin’ forward to this album. I crave real music. Singin’, dancin’, that tasteful swag and ish-talkin’ that makes you feel good about a little excess and havin’ a good…

    This video is one of my favorites. Bey looks fabulous and sweet. More importantly, she embraces the idea that being imperfect can be wonderful when in love, providing you find the right person to appreciate all your quirks.

    This post is Rated R for language and religious references. Last night an old friend woke me up at 11:08 pm. It has been my habit since the new year began to go to bed at 10. I fudged a few times, but I have mostly kept to this new…

    Oh, yes, honey. They are counting your money like that…When asked to contribute a not unsubstantial amount of money for another coworker’s – one she doesn’t like – gift, Racey says: “I just couldn’t do it this time. I mean, it’s the principal, you know? I guess I was just…

    December 6, 2012

    Talk about a poor man made good story. Geez. This guy’s accomplishments are impressive no matter what your background. That he comes from such modest means just makes it that much more intriguing. I can’t help but wonder what drives him? And how can I bottle it and gorge until…
