- Are you paying attention to the endless stories about black women being stalked and killed by former or current boyfriends/lovers/husbands? These nuccas are crazy! We (black women) better WAKE UP and take notice. Be aware. Be safe. Be careful. And most of all- pay attention to the signs. Mothersuckas don't turn psycho overnight. When your instinct tells you to run, get the hell outta dodge.
- Pedestrian safety is completely ignored by most motorists. Crossing the street is becoming a game of russian roulette. I'm going to start crossing the street in a shirt that says "Smile. You're on Youtube." That should keep me from becoming roadkill.
- What happened to the terror alert system? It's been yellow since September '07. Not that I ever cared about or payed attention to the whack system... But we used to get regular updates on the news.
- With all the constant talk about the race to the White House, I am wondering how much fuss do you make about your local elections (i.e. Governor, Senator, Congressional Rep., Council & Board members)? We [voters] have a greater impact on our local elections than national. What's your district number? Precinct?
- I do not have IM or Yahoo Messenger or anybody else's messenger service. Call me, text me, email me, fax me, or send a postcard. If none of the above works, then just cross me off your contact list. Please. Enough is enough already.
- Ever seen a black family on Super Nanny? 'Nuff said.
- I am an avid coupon clipper. I never see coupons for condoms. Never. Seen plenty for KY Jelly. I'm just saying...
- Why are folks still not recycling? You bag up your recyclable items just like the regular trash and sit it on the curb or at the dumpster just like regular trash. There are no extra steps. What's so hard about it? I guess laziness truly is self-destructive.
- Did you ever notice that Afghanistan's flag and the Black Liberation flag have the same colors?
Afghan Flag
Black Liberation Flag
Interesting. The Afghan people are most certainly Revolutionary But Gangsta. Lol.
- I think I'm the only person I know who doesn't have cable. Doesn't bother me at all... TV will f**k up your mind, fo' real. The day Comcast stops dictacting what channels I pay for is the day I renew my subscription. I do miss ESPN and TV One.
- Due to my boycotting the devil, I mean Comcast, I've been renting The Wire DVDs from the video store. That is one damn good show! I know I'm late but better late than never, right?

I've noticed that things have gotten a bit dangerous for women out here. I have some theories as to why that's so but they're all beside the point. I hope more women are ore careful. There's no one worth dying for or even winding up in the ER for.
I'd never noticed the thing about condoms. LOL Nice catch.
I have a contentious relationship with pedestrians. It's because they jay walk.
I did see one black family on Super Nanny a while back (they had a developmentally challenged daughter), and the dad was all about spanking and the Nanny was telling him not to... I thought he was going to haul off and knock her out!
