WHY, O WHY - KOBE!!?  22-Jul-2003  We all know that trifeness that is going down with Kobe Bryant. My only question is, "WHY??????????????!" KOBE, HOW COULD YOU?! OK - there's a two-sided slant to this story... well, for ME anyway. First of all, Kobe shouldn't have been out tryin' to get his married-butt some a$$. Hello, Kobe?! YOU are MARRIED?! And your wife is FOINE!! There should be no reason for you to be out there tryin' to get some from some skanky lil gurl who is nothing more than an opportunist! Which leads me to my second point: we ALL know that the girl involved was in NO WAY raped. I'm sorry, say what you want, little girl. We know what you're all about. And did you all see her friends on the TODAY show talkin' about "We SO believe in her because she's so nice and sweet..." PLEASE! Let's all give the pee-dubs a hair-cut and a make-over, please. Those "friends" were SO full of it. The girl who "messed" with Kobe KNEW what she was doing, and she knew what she wanted... Girlfriend was lookin' for a bank-roll, that's what. And you know what? Her lyin'-a$$ better NOT get it. I will be highly upset if she gets anything remotely close to what she's seeking.

I'm not condoning Kobe's actions here. I am AGAINST adultery at all costs... Hello, it's a SIN. DUH, Kobe... So with that, I say that it's his fault... and he should've gotten caught. I also think that his wifey should leave him after the trial and all that good stuff whether or not it's a good or bad outcome. OR, if they go through the right channels, and she forgives him, and he totally changes his ways...then that would work, too. BUT as far as that girl?! She better not think that she's winning any sympathy here. She's an opportunist, an extortionist, and simply PeeDub(ya)... SORRY.

SANTA MONICA TERROR.  21-Jul-2003  By now, everyone must have heard of the old man who went cruisin' down Santa Monica, right? The one who totally drove into the Farmer's Market and killed a few people?! Yeah, that's the one. Well, the story's old news by now, but I still feel the need to make a special comment on it. I'm sorry, but that old man had absolutely NO business driving. I'm SORRY. And I'm not saying this just because I love Santa Monica, and the Farmer's Market (shout-out to mah gurl, lesley! ahaha...), but I'm sayin' that I COULD'VE BEEN THERE! MY FRIEND, MY COUSIN, SOMEONE COULD'VE BEEN THERE! Shoot. That Farmer's Market is literally very close to where I stay when I am in LA. If Lesley or Perce (my cousin) were there that day, UMMM, HELLO!?! Or if I was there with Alison and/or Primo that time, then we would've been SCREWED. How can lolo go driving through there and manage to keep on hitting things?! You'd think that after the first hit he'd be like, "Oh damn... lemme turn this shit off..." BUT NO! He kept driving... hitting... and whatever else the poor guy did!

I mean, he's old. You and I both know this. But where does the sympathy lie here? Do we feel sorry for him since he's old?! And what is he doing in this picture? Is he giving an apologetic speech for what pain he had caused so many? Ummm - hello?! Plain and simple, his ass shouldn't have been behind the wheel. I'ma need someone to HANDLE this one. Don't let his ass get off... (and don't lemme get ghetto... i'll fly my ass there just to say something, shooooo!)

BRING ON THE BEACH.  3-Jul-2003  July 4th is tomorrow... You know what that means... It means that the "beach" season is now in full-swing. Yeah, and yo' ass thought it would never come, huh?! I know you thought that, cause I sure was thinkin' the same thing. But whatever. I was f*ckin' around on Yahoo! this morning (please note, that i did take info/pix on this entry from Yahoo! *YaHoO* just to give credit where credit is due... LOL), and lemme tell you that they had a feature on America's top beaches, hence the photo (i don't know what beach that is, though, but something tells me it ain't an American beach). So here's the Top 10 according to YOUR votes:
1. Miami, FL; 2. Myrtle Beach, SC; 3. Panama City, FL; 4. Waikiki, HI; 5. Tampa Bay, FL; 6. St. Thomas, USVI; 7. Key West, FL; 8. Kaanapali, HI; 9. St. John, USVI; 10. Naples, FL
OK. So it's a pretty predictable list... sorta. But who the hell put Myrtle Beach up in that piece? I'm sorry... But I've been there, and it is NOT even all that. I mean, it's better than Ocean City and Virginia Beach no doubt, but let's get real... Miami is aight. It has its nice beaches, alongside its trife ones, but you can deal. You can find that special beach there. Panama City? I was last there when I was young, and I didn't think it was all that. Maybe I just went to some "mom and dad will take you there" beach, which is probably why I have the yuck memories. Haven't done Hawaii yet, but shoot...I imagine that they deserve their place on here; same goes for the islands. But Naples? Tampa Bay? Key West? Again, decent beaches, but clearly not "the best."

I don't even know why I care, cause I could care less for the beach. I'm such a city-ass that it doesn't even phase me that the shore is like only a 3-hr drive away from home. But once in a while I will get the beach-bug. Not yet, though. So like they listed some most important qualities for ranking their beaches. On the top of the list was cleanliness, which is a plus. There's nothing worse than a dirty-ass beach. Scenery/Panorama was next, and with good reason. Then they had to list climate next. OK, all ya'll MFs know that FL has some trife-ass climates, so tell me that's NOT why it made the top of this list...

THEN... the top 5 activities to do at beaches... Now this gets interesting. Drinking alcohol was number one, while flying a kite was last. First off, who really flies a kite at the beach? Cause if ever my ass gets hit by a flying dragon or butterfly, whoever is flying that ish is gonna get ROUGHED... SAND AND ALL. The drinking alcohol part is aight, but for the most part, a lot of beaches prohibit that, so quit LYING, PEOPLE! WE KNOW YO' ASSES AIN'T DRINKIN' UP AT THE BEACH!! Building sandcastles was second (i'm so mean, i'm not even gonna say what i'm thinking about that one), and then having sex was number four. Like it matters cause it's usually dark when that ish happens anyway. So much for sex in cleanliness, with scenery/panorama, and a good climate. Please.

What's wrong with me today? I think the weather is gettin' to me. That and the fact that I just paid some bills. So you see... WEN IS BLOWN! But enjoy the beach discussion, and get to one if that's what you need to feel comfy in this trife-ass humid HEAT. *wink*

LEGALLY...  2-Jul-2003  Today Elle Woods makes it back to the big screen in the follow-up to the surprise smash, LEGALLY BLONDE. Reese Witherspoon is back in her Prada suit and Manolo pumps as the perky, California-blonde legal eagle, Elle� Elle Woods� in the new release of LEGALLY BLONDE 2: RED, WHITE & BLONDE. Witherspoon, who is currently pregnant with hubby Ryan Phillippe, is one hot ticket these days�LITERALLY. With the onslaught of the summer heat, as well as the heat of her totally hyped summer sequel, life might just be a bit overwhelming for the petite Tennessee native.

Reese once again waxes comedy as bubbly lawyer Elle Woods, who sashays into Washington (that's DC�) to put a ban non-medical animal testing. In tow is her little man, Bruiser. The original film grossed a whopping $96.5 million, catapulting the actress from a "respected supporting player to an A-lister." The actress considers the sequel far more than just a chic-ly packaged bundle of summer 'ha-has'.

While the "Legally Blonde" franchise is NOT a period story, nor is it your typical romantic comedy, it's still a movie with a message. This time around, the message campaigns for animal rights. Hence, the actress dons a pair of leather-less Jimmy Choo shoes upon her feet. I'm sure that PETA will give a hefty nod to this one...

On the flipside, Witherspoon has one month of production left on the more shi-shi VANITY FAIR, an 1840s period drama she's shooting in London. Incidentally, Reese is currently calling London home with her husband and 3-year-old daughter, Ava. Through the film, Reese will bring a whole new personage to her table of characters, including the all-girlie Elle Woods.

Needless to say, Reese is on FIRE. I love the woman, and I can't wait to see her crazy antics in "Legally�" So get ready to laugh it up, ladies and gents�! (Info taken from USA Today On-Line... Check 'em out!)

FIGHT THE FAT!  1-Jul-2003  According to Reuters, Kraft Foods Inc. (which is the biggest US manufacturer of processed foods) said that it would "cap portion sizes, eliminate marketing in schools, and reformulate some products as the food industry faces increasing legal blame for obesity and unhealthy eating trends."

The company, who makes such foods as Velveeta cheese and Oreo cookies, are planning to develop a range of "standards" to improve the overall nutritional content of its products. It plans to also use the standards to change its marketing schemes. The changes are said to take effect next year.

Critics say that Kraft takes these measures at a very odd time, as other major food companies are facing law suits regarding their products/foods leading children to face obesity; McDonald's being the latest company to face such a battle. Their spokespeople even cite that the measures and changes that they'll be making are being done as a preemptive move to avoid similar dealings with lawyers and critics as has happened with McDonald's.

OK. Let me put my own SPIN on this... First of all, HOW are you gonna go and sue a company for making you or your children OBESE?! Obesity is something you get yourselves in, mind you. Anyone who has SOME kind of intelligence would know that feeding your kids McDonald's or Burger King on a regular basis will lead to some totally fat-ass times; not to mention poor health and cholesterol problems. HELLO!? I mean, it's a good thing that Kraft is taking the first step in trying to improve things for their company, and their products. Hopefully, this will make other food companies follow suit. But for those people who like to blame these companies for their fatness... they need to get off their big asses and work that ish off, and STOP eating it/feeding it to their kids!

I remember watching the news when first word of the McDonald's issue came about. When I saw those fat-asses there complaining about how their parents bought them McD's all the time and that they didn't know it was bad for them - the only thought that came to my mind was: "yo' arteries ain't the only shit being clogged... so is yo' brain!" That was some stupid shit. And their parents are equally dumb for putting their shit out there like that. They only came off as looking like dumb-ass opportunists. Instead of feeding them McD's, they should've been buying their asses Subway, HOLD THE MAYO. And instead of feeding them Oreos, they could've been giving them Snackwells.

There are choices in life that are to be made, and the foods that we eat are definitely one of those choices. And to lose weight is another choice. Believe me --- I've been there... And if my former fat-acious ass can get up and lose some weight, then so can everyone else. So go and DO IT NOW!
