  • Now that you have been “soothed into awakeness”….Happy Monday to everyone. This morning, if you are not (like all normal, slothful people) avoiding the gym in its entirety, here are the ten machines you definitely should
  • always felt that the one thing standing between you and rap or poetry superstardom was your inability to rhyme? well, the plight is over.

This has nothing to do with this column but I didn’t know where else to put it:

Did anyone else come to work and pass by the Convention Center this morning?

Did you also notice the dozens and dozens of older black ladies wearing pink and neon green dresses and pant suits headed to some kind of meeting?

Anyone have any f’ing clue what that was all about?

I think those are the colors of an african-american sorority. The best color scheme ever.

Yeah, they were swarming Chinatown yesterday. If there was ever a sorority more proud of themselves and continue to tout their…’sororityness’ it would be the AKAs.

Oh my sorority days .. *sigh* Granted, I wasn’t an AKA .. because I’m not black.
