1. My great-grandma, and fishing buddy, Alice Marie

Isaac Hayes, 65, has died

The man who brought the theme song for the hit, Shaft, has passed. He is
reported to have died in Memphis, TN. He was a guest on VH1's I Love the
70s, talking about the music of the period. He was also the Voice of
Chef on the irreverent South Park. He did numerous other things, but I
am not able to share them with you right now.

I know that all this death is making me wonder if I'm as right with the
Man upstairs as I would like to be (forget my desire, as right as I NEED
to be)...

Y'all Bernie Mac done DIED!

My momma woke me up this morning telling someone died, I became frantic
thinking it was a family member. It was Bernie Mac, one of my kindred
spirits. We shared a philosophy about beating kids. He was also one the
people I model my sense of humor after, I guess this just means its time
for me to step up and join the comedy world! Rest In Peace Mr. Mac!

things are DEFINITELY NOT as they appear!

Today was crazy, I didn't do anything until around 7, and then it was just to ride out into the rural parts with Meeks. After we finally made it back to the civilized urban jungle, we got lost a little and then when we got un-lost(is that english, real english??) and ran into a hell fo a traffic jam...and then rode completely out fo the way to get me back home...a harrowing experience to say the least.

So, when I got home FINALLY, I had a video chat with Drangry. This fool has started a blog...and it's crazy! We talked about her crazy life, and reminisced about the randomness that is (was) the CBCF 2008 internship.


I guess technically..I should go to bed so I can get started on laundry early this morning...so, I guess this is goodbye?!? NO, I won't say goodbye...I'll say goodnight...

I'm definitely the best friend I know!

I'm currently in the Burbs on local highways heading to Meeks's school to drop some of her junk off for her move in tomorrow. I just wanna say, rural parts ain't my fave place in the world, and suburbs ain't much better. Why the bffs can't go to school in cities? RURAL places are prime places for LYNCHINGS...am I the only one that knows this? I need to get back to the Safety of the 'hood ASAP! Pray for me please y'all!


Updated 2:54 AM 8/6/2008:So as we leave, i realize that where Meeks's school is not in the rural parts, it is actually a nice little city. But the road there and back was hella rural! and why on earth did we commence to telling stories about ax murderers and the Texas Chainsaw man sitting on the side of the row...and Meeks decides to check the backseat and the trunk...AFTER we have been on the road for 20mins already...we would have already been dead! And I was wondering how I, the most vocal of the scary movie yellers(you know what I mean, yelling at the White girl to get the hell up and steadily saying, "see, that's why Black folks don't get into shit like this...we know where to go...and we know to stay off of back roads at night!") got into this scary movie type shit!!! Praise be to Gawd, we made it back to civilization!!
