HAPPY BIRTHDAY BIG POPPA!!!!

"LONG HAIR DONT CARE"

So the other day I was doing a little bit of household shopping in Target (gotta love that store for the tids and bits you can find) and I saw an African American female shopper with a terrible wig on;/. Picture this if you will... strawberry blond, synthetic, natted up BEYOND belief in sections and all the way down her back, with some bangs. This lady sashayed down the aisles with so much confidence flipping that hair from side to side and it was obvious she thought her hair do was "the shit". I had to stop and ask myself why do African American women in particular put sooo much emphasis on the hair we have on top of our head? This poor lady clearly had poor sense of judgement and nobody around her to tell her that that wig was NOT it. I'm really not trying to clown her or judge her either it just made me realize that having hair down to her back (whether it was hers or not) made that woman feel a certain way.

...cut to two days later, I went to check out the movie "BABIES". a Documentary about four different cultures: Mongolian, African, American and Japanese. Four babies from four different parts of the world and how they were raised. I could help but notice that the poorest family being the Africans, they barely had a hut or ANYTHING for that matter but the females spent most of their day doing each others hair???? WHERE DID THEY GET HAIR FROM to make these extentions when the babies didn't even have diapers or shoes or clothing???? It bugged me out to say the least but even in a society where they had NOTHING, HAIR was still a major priority for them. Long Hair Don't Care!!!

Hollywood: City of Lost Angels

I don't wanna get too deep with this but hear me out... ME= grounded, humble, hard working, honest, loyal, real, cultured, creative, intelligent HOLLYWOOD= flighty: one day people are cool with you the next day they don't even know your name. Conceited: its all about the facade! Half of the folks out here are faking the life they really want to live. Easy way out: people would rather sit on their ass than actually bust a lil sweat to accomplish things. Liars: lies, lies and fairytales!!!! Disloyal: smile in your face and be the first person to betray you. Fake: everything from titties to asses are all fake. Uncultured: culture just doesn't exist out here?? Lame: rarely do you find people with an actual clue concerning style, game and just swagger. Stupid: if you come from a city like NY people are just see thru out here. DISCLAIMER: Im finding that most LA born and raised natives are NOT the people with these issues, its the damn transplants!!!

My POINT in saying all of this is its hard from time to time to ignore these type of surroundings because Im in this crazy industry where I have to deal with these type of people on a day to day basis. Its draining to my soul sometimes but I do know that Im here for a reason, a damn good one at that! So I find my peace when the sun shines and warms my heart (which is almost everyday:), when I conquer that canyon, when I go to church and feel the love, and when I meet precious special people that are NOT any of those characteristics above...those are the true angels to me, everyone else is just lost!

GO SEE THIS!!!

Yoooooooo!!!! I loved this movie!!!! Hit Girl is the best thing out and I was living for Big Daddy:) This film was a breathe of fresh air to me, not your typical dramedy type film. I expected it to be full of jokes (which it was) but not in your convention make your stomach hurt cuz you laughed so much type of way. It was real silly but the characters were soooo committed in their roles I thought it was brilliant. So if you need a quick escape from reality, go see this!!!
