SHOP CHATTER: The Week That Was In Hollywood
PAULA MAY BE SAYING PEACE OUT ‘IDOL’
Damn, I had the opportunity to dance on tour with Paula Abdul many moons ago and when I tell you that these “artists” have the biggest insecurities, you better believe me. Being successful magnifies all of your baggage and bull****. You can only hide it for so long and Ms. Paula Abdul doing her “crack pot” reality show, truly showed her true colors.
Word on the… Continue

SHOP CHATTER: TEN THANK YOU CARDS
I know I’m on the late freight, everybody and their mother has weighed in on this historic election, but nonetheless, I couldn’t let this moment pass by without adding my ten cents (in this economy two cents ain’t worth what it used to be).
Lincoln once said, “Victory has many fathers.” Had he not been so justifiably fixated on the slavery issue, I’m sure he would’ve been concerned with equal rights for women… Continue

SHOP CHATTER: WHY WE VOTE
Teach them to your children and to their children after them. (Deuteronomy 4:9b)
I am so encouraged by the four-part TVOne series “Murder in Black and White” hosted by Al Sharpton, that takes a look into four notorious and racially motivated murders of the deep south.
Most especially moving to me, in lieu of the national push for voter registration for this coming election 2008, was the episode… Continue

SHOP CHATTER: Get Your Growth On
Which service operator do you think is more successful at attracting qualified customers? The one, that when asked to describe his ideal client, states:
“We try to attract anyone interested in having a car professionally washed.”
or
“We attract clients who value their car experience and want to extend the life of their car by having it professionally detailed.”
If both… Continue

SHOP CHATTER: The 7 Keys To The Kingdom
I started out my personal blog with an introductory entry about the things I believed. It was a good way to let people know where I stand on random topics, everything from who is the best player in the NBA (Kobe is a beast) to how I thought pre-silicon Kelly Rowland was sexier than everybody’s favorite girl, Bounce (since that posted, Alicia Keys and Rhianna have surpassed both). The focus of “MEN-tal Note” is… Continue

SHOP CHATTER: Give A Little Bit
Recently I was chatting with a friend about her plans for the weekend. Unfortunately for her pocketbook, her weekend plans included two weddings. This meant that time and money would have to be spent on these joyous occasions. However, with a little effort, I had a plan in mind to save her big bucks and a lot of frustration.
Step 1: The customary thing to do is to find out where the wedding party is listed for… Continue

SHOP CHATTER: In Love With Fashion
Dear Lovelies,
I just opened and watched my very own copy of “Sex and The City” the movie. I’m “all dressed up in love”, all over again with the four main characters, the fifth silent character (the city), and wardrobe, the sixth character.
I am absolutely positively in love… with fashion!
My love affair with fashion began with a few colored pencils. It was over my very first sketch, a lime green… Continue
