Jesse James and Kat Von D Spend Romantic Weekend in Texas (PopEater)

Aug 30th 2010 7:55PM We would just as soon that she AND he fly back to California. We cleaned up the trash off the roads in Texas years ago and would like it to stay that way.

Martha Stewart and Kmart: Putting on appearances (Daily Finance)

Oct 17th 2009 7:35PM I have boycotted MS products and publications since her conviction. I will not contribute to her income and give her the honor of even watching her shows. She does not do the work or the imagination behind the products, only takes the credit and income. I think the government should garner future wages as I am sure she managed to bank some without the knowledge of the IRS.

Finally -- a Model Who Looks Like Us! (Lemondrop)

Aug 23rd 2009 12:43AM There is muscle and there is plaine sad unhealthy. Been in the buisness and some of these girls are so unhealthy they need medical help. Toned and healthy is great and muscle weighs more than dead fat. No one is dispuiting that. But a frail sick model who does not exercise and eat well is not healthy and you are.

Finally -- a Model Who Looks Like Us! (Lemondrop)

Aug 23rd 2009 12:38AM I remember back in the 50's the phrase "a perfect size 10" Whatever happened to that? When I modeled it was a 7-8. Now it's a 1-2? Ye gads they are the walking dead! I love this woman and all her glory! Look out Anna W>!

Ann Coulter to Michelle Obama - You're No Jackie O. (Stylelist)

Jan 7th 2009 2:04AM MS O Needs to avoid tight across the thighs and hips. Although trim she is a bit wide there. And mid knee is better. No prints also. And she is too pear shaped for the shifts. Smile more and just be herself. Find her own style. Stand tall. Quit being so negitive. It shows in her facial expression!

Dad called pervert for taking pictures of his own kids in public (ParentDish)

Jul 19th 2008 11:43PM I am an artist and put a lot of figures in my paintings. I am sometimes enchanted with the actions of children in public but don't dare photograph them or even sketch them for fear of being thought a pervert! And I am a grandmother of 2! It's sad that this is the way of things! And I am suspicious of people who stare too long at my grandchildren! It wasn't this way when we were growing up! I know it's a psychological problem but it does need to be come down on like any other crime. Stricter laws and follow ups. Ankle bracelets. No second chances.

UPDATE: AriZona's Sweet Southern "Racist" Tea? (Blackvoices Main)

Feb 24th 2008 12:57AM After reading more of these comments I have to say more. The house is not a plantation. It is "Federal style". So is the one I live in although mine is brick. I drink Sweet tea. Am I a racist? You bet your britches I am not!

My mother left when I was 5 years old. A wonderful black woman names Mamie helped my dad and grandmothers raise me. Sometimes her granddaughter would come to play with me. That was the highlight of my existence!

I remember when it was time for me to go to grammar school I was so excited to be able to go to school with Jackie only to be told that I could not because she had to go to a separate school. When I asked why the racial issue was explained to me (This was in the 1960's). You better believe I pitched a fit and boycotted school! I went kicking and screaming and ran away from school 3 days running.

I also remember one night when Mamie was babysitting me and I asked her to read me a story. She told me that she could not. When I asked why she said that she had never learned how to read. So I read to her. The next day my dad and I had a talk which resulted in Mamie getting her reading lessons and GED. My other best grownup friend was a Creek Indian dwarf who came to do our yard work once a week. He taught me more about plants and animals that any books could. To this day Little people are not "Freaks" to me but special friends.

In my heart I know that without Mamie I would not have made it. She was a mother to me. I never thought of her color. Nor do I think of color today. Or size. But I do judge a person by attitude. And it seems that this whole label thing has gotten out of hand via the attitude thing. Someone took the first thing that came into their mind about the South and used it. So what? Like the saying goes "Even bad press is good"

Off the soap box again

UPDATE: AriZona's Sweet Southern "Racist" Tea? (Blackvoices Main)

Feb 23rd 2008 8:13PM Actually the oldest "Sweet Tea" recipe comes from a cookbook dated 1879 which is well after the time of the War Between the States. To be even more precise no "Mammy" ever wore anything like the red dress in the illustration. We Southerners think of Iced tea as more of something to sip on a porch or with lunch than something associated with plantations. And it was really hard for anyone to get ice on a plantation. It had to be shipped by boat or train from up North back then. As for AZ. Teas I do like them, but I am still waiting for the half dozen cups I saved up for and sent off for 10 years ago to arrive.
