Hmm...Good Stuff

1) Dog Drama - Apparently, Ellen decided to give one of her adopted dogs to a family friend's children, but did not read her agreement. She pleaded (you can see it on Yahoo video) with the agency that took the dog to give it back to the children. It was her fault, she said, saying that she had not read the agreement regarding the adoption. The agency has said they will not give the dog back, claiming that she should have read the papers and that Ellen is using her success and disregarding contractual law. The story gets more & more interesting. Who knew that there could be so much drama involving dogs?

2) Comedian Sheryl Underwood Comments on Prophetess Juanita Bynum - In my opinion, that was extremely wrong. Despite her being attacked, Underwood should not have called Bynum out because she wants to advocate for battered women. Trying to make someone else look bad (and a preacher no less, *whether or not you feel they are called or not*) for your own gain is wrong too because that was publicity for Underwood as well. The Bible says not to judge lest you will be judged and Underwood is not exempt from that verse. But then again, I do not recall Underwood claiming she believed in Jesus and we do have freedom of speech.

3) Sparks' Tattoo: A Slowed Down Irreplaceable - I disagree. Many music listeners have cliched Jordin Sparks' new song as nothing more than a watered down version of Beyonce's #1 hit. Both songs were produced by the same producers if I recall and every producer has an element that is common amongst all of their songs. Despite this, Jordin sings to her heart's content on the song and it has been in heavy rotation out here (in LA) and is fastly creeping up on the charts. Either way both songs and good.

4) Is Flashing Lights Kanye's new single? - Having heard it on the radio today, I wonder. I had hoped that he would have released something else. Flashing Lights is a tight track, but I'm not sure it is radio friendly. Champion and Barry Bonds are the only 2 tracks that stand out to me as being radio ready. We'll c.

Things That Are Just Not Acceptable #1

Here's a list of a few things that are just not acceptable...

1) J-Walking in front of cars and then stopping and giving the driver evil looks
2) Giving shout-outs to your play cousin on the radio
3) Being label conscious that you feel clothing from Marshalls, Stein Mart, Kmart, Target, or any other non-department/clothing retail store is beneath you
4) Using the Bible as a coaster
5) Wearing sandals in the snow
6) Not taking off a car mirror that has been broken off (letting it dangle there)
7) Taking the piece of gum that you are chewing out of your mouth and sticking it somewhere temporarily in order to eat/drink something and then returning to where you stuck and putting it back in your mouth
