The Rainy Friday Edition

What a way to end the week, the 40th Anniversary of Dr. King's Assassination and we've got rain and craziness abound.

So, let's play catch-up…

Ocean’s 9

Nine third-graders plotted to subdue, handcuff and then cut their teacher. Times tables is a mug! The plot was simple, revenge. The teacher put a student in time out for standing on a chair last week and that apparently was unacceptable for the young lady, so she got with her cohorts and hatched a plan that was damn near genius! Each of the nine had a specific role to play and items to bring in to complete their task. The police confiscated a steak knife, paperweight, and handcuffs. Turns out, they were supposed to knock her out with the paperweight, cuff her and then stab her. One student was to cover the windows, another keep look out, just crazy. Three of the kids have been arrested; three suspended for the remainder of the year and others also faced suspension. I know they were White, not just because of the planning either, because a Black kid is not involving that many people on what they planned to do. Also, another kid in the class found out what was going on and told. Stop snitching!



Crack is Wack

Bobby Brown, in his soon to be released book, “Bobby Brown: The Truth, the Whole Truth, and Nothing But” alleges that ex-wife Whitney Houston got him addicted to crack! Bobby goes on to claim that weed was his drug of choice, but he dabbled in powder cocaine, heroin, and all sorts of drugs, but it was Whitney got him smoking rocks, like he wasn’t on his way there already!

Jay-Z & Beyonce to Jump the Broom?

It seemed like an April Fool’s joke, but it just may be real. Apparently Jay-Z and Beyonce took out a marriage license in Scarsdale, New York earlier this week and have 60 days to marry. The timing made it seem like a hoax, but People.com has sources reporting the two looking very happy as they completed the paperwork and also reports that Jay-Z had a bachelor party in Toronto Wednesday night. Perezhilton.com is reporting that they will marry today, so I guess people are going to be blued to the web and radio to figure if it all goes down. All I could think was damn “wait ‘til I get my money right”. I hope it’s real, because it is about time, they’ve had the longest courtship since Eddie’s father. Well, it seems they will have an additional $150 million to add to the millions they possess now…

He’s Not a Businessman, He’s a Business Man!

Following a trend started by Madonna and U2, Jay-Z signed a deal with concert goliath Live Nation. The deal, reported at $150 million, gives Jay-Z the finances to develop his own entertainment label, funds him for recording and touring and all of his endorsement deals. He received something like $60 million in cash just to sign S. Carter. Somewhere Dame Dash is crying himself into a power nap!

The Superfreak Lives On!

There’s rumors of a sex tape featuring Rick James floating around the internet to be sold on EBay. But check this, there’s also footage of Rick smoking a joint in the studio while he was recording his final songs. This is not 1982 Rick James, this is 2004 Rick James. I’m as big of a Rick James fan as there can be, but I’m not sure I want to see fat, high Rick James making it Mo’ Better!

Hillary in Technicolor

This woman is going to extremes for votes! While in Pennsylvania earlier this week, Hillary Clinton not only claimed that Barack Obama wanted to deny the people a voice by saying he’s ready for the race to end, but she compared herself to Rocky! "Let me tell you something, when it comes to finishing a fight, Rocky and I have a lot in common. I never quit. I never give up. And neither do the American people," Clinton said.

Hillary! Rocky is a fictional character in a movie, now you’re trying too hard! That’s like me saying I have a lot in common with John McClain, I die hard! Who’s writing this crap for her? Is she so far removed from the people that she has to use these references to try to stay afloat? Fight on the issues and we’ll decide who we want to represent us.
