Trust Fund Baby

An off-duty police officer in New York City has a sick sense of humor or perhaps the impaled baby's head on the car antenna was a tongue in cheek political statment. More racist than a spin on the latest version of Grand Theft Auto. I don't know about you, but I have been seeing a lot the same four door compact sedans. Three Six Mafia has even made a video about it.

Guess Who's Coming to Dinner

David Hampton only wanted to get into Studio 54 so he scammed wealthy Manhattanites to invite him into their hearts and home by telling them that he was David Poitier, the Black movie actor Sidney Poitier's son. David Hampton's good looks and suave charm earned him a twenty-one-month burglary sentence and a 1993 film based on his con game in Six Degrees of Separation. Hampton tried to sue the movie's film maker John Guare in 1991 however the 100 million dollar suit got tossed out after an appeal. The New York Times quoted the trial court's ruling stating "society's response to one whose labors are in violation of its penal laws is punishment, not reward." The appellate court ruled that Hampton's hoaxes were not entitled to damages because Guare's play was a protected work of fiction. Hampton passed away in 2003.

Don't Stop Believin'

Life gets sad and frustrating when no one 'understands' your letters and e-mails. It gets really upsetting when you have realized that you have spent a number of years complaining about a situation and no seems to know what is going on or even attempt to blurt out a clue. Never fret, I know it is not just me. There has to be a problem when you hear the same Journey song three nights in a row, two live performances in two different cities and once at a karaoke bar, for the duration of your weekend getaway. The circumstances are offensive, but I don't mind the song.

The Power of Persuasion

The world is outraged by pictures of sunbathing tourists' indifference to two dead Roma girls laid out on a Torregaveta beach in Italy. Ironic for these two unfortunate girls that must have wandered from their camp, Gypsies are normally the ones accused of child stealing and baby snatching.

Last Holiday

If the concept for the original Last Holiday was not bad enough, the remake for the Queen Latifa flick Last Holiday was frightful. Although I spent several days in New Orleans a couple of weeks ago, the last real holiday that I had was in Jamaica for my cousin's wedding. He and his wife got married in the summer of 2005. His brother in 2004. Three babies are ready to be baptized this summer. As for me, stay posted to the blog. Unfortunately for Chandra Levy, her parents will never have the chance to partake in these momentous occaisions.

Message in a Bottle

Bazaar times and two AA batteries. I located this jewel the center of a nearby strip mall. Haven't done anything this raunchy since a video upload on my laptop in September 2005.
