Fangbangers rejoice! True Blood is back.  We're back b*tches! Quote of the Episode: "smells like where old air fresheners gone to die" - Lafayette Sookie gets taken into fairy land by her fairy godmother. But it quickly turns out to be a fairy jail. Sookie's instincts kick in and she realizes it was a trap. She also ran into the busboy from season two and her granddaddy, she was the only one

Thailand a beautiful country, too bad a doltish  bachelorette is visiting.  I can't believe after so many seasons I've started watching the Bachelorette again and I doubt I would watch another season. Her first one on one date was with Ben F. the winemaker, a nice long walk around some area of Thailand followed by a romantic dinner with all the works that only a TV producer of a hit TV guilty

Hi folks! I just want to stop by and wish a very Happy Father's Day to all the wonderful men out there holding it down.  I send love and good vibes your way. For those who lost touch with their children for whatever reason, you get prayers, because only God can lay a hand on you to realize the beauty of the children you helped conceive. Not seeing them, does not make them go away.  Though my

Not just on that 4th Thursday in November but all year long and this write-up I got from a Facebook friend should aptly explain why. I don't know the exact author of this so I will just say I give credit to the anonymous source and to the FB friend that posted it. WHAT HAPPENS IN HEAVEN WHEN WE PRAY?

Seriously Colts, What's going on with you all? That's all I have to say about them.  No, no, there's more. More turnovers than Dunkin Donuts, defense is kinda blah, O-line more blah and as much as I love Peyton, he's giving me angina and I don't appreciate that, and I'd like, no, LOVE to tell him baggy eyes and pouting don't mix well. Can someone give me some insight into why Peyton is playing

And I'm not saying that because I'm of West Indian parentage, it's just a fact based on years of experience attending weddings of friends and family here and in the Islands I have noticed a pattern to these things.

There I was going about my business getting ready to take my nephew to the PTA meeting when the breaking news announced a tornado warning for Staten Island. OK, living in north-central Brooklyn I didn't pay it much mind until out of the corner of my eye I saw flashes of lightening while ironing my pants. I looked out the window after every flash of lightening, then I heard the rolling thunder

I know it's not Christmas but OH WHAT JOY it is to find football on the flatscreen!  I'll also be doing the fantasy football league again, I took down the separate blog and decided to just chronicle my journey to a WIN in here. The draft is this Sunday, which is also Michael Jackson's birthday, so I hope to draft some good players for my team in between moonwalking.

Just taking a brief pause to say I'm still here and haven't forgotten you all in blogville. I'm nearing the end of my vacay and I miss this place and my family already. I have plenty adventures and pictures to share with you all but only when I return to the States, because here, the electricity can go at anytime. I miss nothing much in NY except for watching True Blood and my cat. So until

I couldn't, I really couldn't just stop at those 5 I'll try to do five more of my favorites. Chris Tucker made me love him in this vid! A little NYC trivia for you. This video, directed by Martin Scorcese was filmed in the Hoyt/Schermerhorn subway station in Brooklyn, NY I would be remiss if I didn't add this video to my list!

I can't believe it's already been a year since the man that provided the soundtrack to many people's lives has been called home. I got the shock of my life when I came home this day last year, I walked in the door with conversations of Farrah Fawcett in my mind when my mom asks if I heard about Michael Jackson. I was thinking some other opportunist tried to extort money from him or something like

It has been an interesting weekend for me. For starters even though my actual birthday is June 3, my family held a dinner for me this past Sunday. It was a nice evening spent with those I love. World Cup started and with it my latent Soccer/Football fan emerges and with it all the knowledge I garnered from my 3 years playing midfield and defense in HS, my uncle played and my big brother being all

Yeah Yeah I know, it's been a long time since I've blogged, 24 is finished, The Tudors and Treme are nearly finished, (one for the season and one forever), True Blood is coming up this Sunday so I'm looking forward to "Do bad things with you" when everyone leaves after my birthday dinner. But I am also excited for another event. The World Cup, now I don't know how many of my followers (if you

It goes without saying the sadness I felt at hearing the news and seeing the images about the earthquake that ravaged the capital city of Port-Au-Prince. I couldn't sleep for a couple of days because I was keeping vigil watching CNN, wondering what can I do with the limited resources I have. and I thank God that I am able to work with some people to do our small part in the aid of recovery.

I finally got my business taken care of and I can now dedicate my mind to more progressive pursuits. Like forging my life journey, blogging, creative writing and entering into a new direction in my life. I'm excited about this and look forward to what good is coming my way. With that said.

Please let me start off by saying I'm not offended, it takes much more than that to get to me. I love the song and I'm going to hit up iTunes and download it for the entertainment of my iTouch and Bberry. I may even make it my ringtone.

I know, but I've been very busy at work and too tired to think when I get home. Here's the news, I'm now one of the numbers of people making jobless claims that the news always talks about. So because of my lay-off I've been busy wrapping things up before I go. It's funny, I've had more work in the past two weeks than I did for the last couple of months.

So I had a brunch to attend to this weekend and there was no way I could get out of it, even with my crazy cold. The place was nice but there were no TV's anywhere on the premises for me to catch a sneak peek in between food courses and line dances so I had to rely on my handy blackberry for scores. But dancing the Cupid Shuffle with my rapidly growing tween nephew was worth it. Also teasing

I was searching around the nets when I came across this article about the Cowboys Cheerleaders, being a Giants fan I frankly care less about the Dallas Cowboys but this particular article peaked my interest, so I took a gander and want to share with you all. I thought it was interesting that Jerry & Co. want their cheerleaders to show a little smarts, I guess they don't want the public to think

It has come to my attention that I've been posting a lot more about my FFL team and my ups and downs and ins and outs to many things Fantasy Football related. I've grown more curious about other people's teams and the leagues they are in, I am paying closer attention to players and teams I wouldn't have normally paid attention to and the teams and players I am a fan of I follow with near

HAHA I like this pic, I think the depiction of Peyton with the lightening coming out his fingers is quite accurate. LOL Well, my little commish always said my team looks good on paper and it does, but for the first two weeks they weren't making me too happy. Now everyone is waking up, smelling the Gatorade and produced. so without further ado, here are my numbers for the week: QB: Peyton Manning

Well at least my draft choices finally woke up, smelled the Gatorade and worked it out. I was channel surfing between the Jets (wearing those bad-ass vintage

I lost by 5 lousy points and the most hurtful thing about it is it's my fault. It totally slipped my mind to double-check my roster for the week and since I had an injured running back I got no points from him, and all but three players scored low. So I learned my lesson and last night I sat in front of my laptop and paid attention to bye-weeks, projections and who I could drop for a better

If I could only send a hologram image of myself (with a better outfit and hairdo) and say "Help Me Peyton, you're my only hope"So far my team looks great on paper but is suckish in real life. Should I even give up? Should I just not bother moving players around, looking at projections and eagerly awaiting the weekend to see how my guys are doing. Only to learn half of them seem to forget it's now

Well by now 99% of the town has black eyes and are doing whatever in preparation for Maryann's big meet and greet with the "God Who Whatevers" so while Sookie is in Gran's room watching the effed up commotion Lafayette orders her to take off her clothes.

September 11, 2001 was a day that began as usual, only this day was beautiful, the sky was clear and almost cloudless, the temperature was warm and dry, the second day of a full workweek was buzzing with people who finally came back from their summer-stretching vacations. Our morning coffees hadn't started to get cold when the unthinkable happened. Some of us were still in line for breakfast when

#1 The Fashion - I get great hair days...I don't have to worry about sweating out my blowdry and even when I work out I don't sweat it out as much. Less humidity so I don't feel icky, sweat out my perfume, lotion or deodorant and my makeup stays fresh upon arrival anywhere. New fashions come out and it's a chance for a new look if you want to go there. It also provides a GREAT excuse to go

That is the true meaning of this date: 09/09/09 - there's nothing to it. It's a date you can't play as a daily number because it's all sold out. It's a date that events are supposed to happen. "What events" you ask honeies I have no idea. But I do know for sure it's special because this is the last time we're going to see a date written in single digits until January 1, 2101 and by then we

The president's address to America's students, which has absolutely nothing to do with healthcare reform or any politics will air tomorrow at 12:00 PM.

OK, a couple of weeks ago I talked about my FFL draft picks for my team, Bed-Stuy Beasts, well after feeling good about my starters and OK about my bench I heard on NPR (or maybe it was 1010 WINS) that Amani Toomer was released from the Chiefs. Now I have a wideout with no team on MY team. Well the good news is, he is not a starter and I really had no intentions of playing but I do need another

This vamp can bite me any night! This past Sunday I watched one of the "sickest" True Blood epis so far. It starts off with Bill greeting the Louisiana Vampire Queen Sophie-Ann while she was snacking on the thigh of a young woman who didn't seem to mind. The Queen, being a gracious hostess, offers Bill a taste, he refuses and starts to ask her about getting rid of Bon Temps' maenad problem.

This is it folks, this is the one I made friends with at the gym! I spent 20 minutes on this baby last night and had an easier time with the Gluteals program. In addition to that I concentrated on my arms and upper body. I am slowly but surely getting back in the groove. My friends keep on telling me to join a class but I'm not that coordinated to do most of those classes, and I also need to get

Fantasy Football League Team that is... what were you thinking? ;-)This Saturday I did my live draft for a particular FFL that I belong to, this is my second year doing this and I must say, I'm pretty satisfied with my team. So unless I can get better bench players I'm not trading. Anyway I was having a decent time drafting good players until the final rounds when the brain gets fried from either

Delectable viewing indeed.Plenty action this episode...PLENTY! So after the Stackhouse siblings had their little misadventure in Dallas they head back to Bon Temps with Bill's fancy coffin in tow. While riding Sookie has another erotic fantasy about Eric the Sexy Viking. (Shit, I would!) Jason snaps his sister out of it and as he was ribbing her about it their car hit two people.

Luke pulls a suicide bombing and some of the other sheeple soldiers tried to launch an attack. Didn't they figure that you can't defeat supernatural beings with regular stuff. Though Luke managed to take a couple with him it only serve to piss off the vampires even more. Bill even let one

Now, I'm not a huge fan of his though I liked to watch him play, and I didn't agree with the whole dog fighting thing I'm just glad he's back and he's big enough to learn his lesson.

I cannot believe what my feet went through this morning. Yesterday I received a shipment of shoes I ordered, they are some super cute flats...That's where the thrill began for me. And it's also where it ended. This morning I commuted to work wearing the offensive flats and I nearly cried after walking the four Brooklyn blocks to the train station. By the time I got out the train station I walked

"Do or do not...there is no try" what does Yoda mean by this? This famous line has taken on new meaning for me as of late. How many times we say we're "trying to do something" only to just give up, and we almost always say: "hey, at least I've tried". To me the word "try" has a temporary connotation to it, it means you just want to go at it once maybe twice just to to see what it's like and then

The greatest thing about Summertime in Brooklyn are all the surprises you can come across from a simple walk around a neighborhood. For one, you can crash any block parties that happen to be jamming.
