NYC on Business: 50 Shades of Cray

The Misadventures of a Blogger in NYC

Warning: This entry is NOT about how I met some strange, mercurial, billionare who took me down a kinky rabbit hole of whips and chains. And how we all listened to Rihanna's "S&M" song for the whole ideal. This trip to NYC was for business, not reenactments of 50 Shades of Grey. Ha! The closest I got to Christian Grey this week was meeting a young lawyer at a bar who has no idea J and I have created an entirely twisted backstory for him involving a sad childhood, deviant predilections, and yes, a red playroom. Poor Fiddy Esq

Some People Should NOT Celebrate Black History

And the person who put this display out is one of them. 

I knew Black History Month was going sideways when Borders Bookstore decided to make a bookend display of insightful works such a book written by a video-hoe turned gold-digger and another by a newly out-of-the-closet Basketball player. 

If the death of Soul Train guy and my love Whitney Houston wasn't proof that we need to re-think this whole Black History Month thing, then my not knowing Soul Train guy's name should seal the deal. 

Just saying. 

THIS is what "a shame" looks like.

London Rioters Attack the Block

We in the US don’t know WHAT is going on over there or why. Is it because someone got shot, forgot tea time, shortage of PS3’s FIFA game?? Clearly everyone’s been watching Attack the Block and getting ideas.

This kind of anarchy could only be the work of apes--apes from outer space.

Allow it, brov. ;)

BTW…

Only in America...

Too Soon?

Listen and enjoy. This song is HI-LARIOUS.
