This weekend I had the opportunity to meet Gail, Heidi, and Kris! We met at Den in Harlem. I just want to say that all of the ladies are as beautiful in person as they are in their photos. It is so funny to me that even though we'd never met, I instantly felt a level of comfort that I usually only experience with my closest friends....So I guess the innanets aren't the debil all the time...lol. Anyway, I was a little under the weather so I had to call it an early evening but I will be back and ready to party in a few months!!!

MS Spotlight interview: (Goliano)



What are your other MS aliases, if any?

OPEN POST

Today is an Open post inspired by K.J. I know this was you:

It started with a simple request: Stop talking so loud on your cellphone.
But what happened next in a Borough Park bodega nearly put the woman who made the request in the hospital - with bruises to her body, coffee burns to her face and stiletto-heel injuries to her legs, police said yesterday
The victim, whose name is being withheld, was standing in line Wednesday morning at the store on Ditmas Avenue near McDonald Avenue, paying for her purchases, when Berta Rakhamimov, 21, started blabbing away on her cellphone.
The victim asked Rakhamimov to lower her voice, then walked outside. But Rakhamimov came after her, spurring a yapper-versus-scolder battle of epic proportions, police said.
First, the yapper pushed the scolder with two hands to the chest. Then the yapper threw her newly purchased coffee into the scolder's face, police said.
The yapper allegedly started boxing the scalded scolder, biting her on the finger and kicking her thigh with her high heels.
When the shaken woman said she would notify the police - and pulled out her own cellphone to make the call - Rakhamimov ran toward a bus that had just pulled into the nearby stop, police said.
The victim shouted to the bus driver not to let Rakhamimov on the bus, and Rakhamimov then fled down the stairs to a nearby subway station. The victim gave chase.
When police arrived, the victim pointed out Rakhamimov, and the cops told the conductor to hold the train.
Rakhamimov was arrested on charges of assault, menacing and criminal possession of a weapon - the coffee, not the cellphone.

"Not Easily Broken" was a pretty good movie, so I suggest that you pick up a digital copy or borrow one!!

Anyway, I was watching the "The Big Tease" on the Reelz channel. The Big Tease is a show that features trailers for upcoming movies. The show featured a trailer for a movie entitled "American Violet," which really grasped my attention, so I thought I would share.
