I rarely trade-in or sell games. I do not know what it is. I just hold on to games even if I am not playing them. I still have my original Game Boy and and all of the games and accessories that I bought for it over the years (yes it still works), my Game [...]

I had not been to any festivals downtown Detroit at all this year. I wanted to go, but I just never got around to making any of them. I did not want to miss the Detroit Jazz Fest, though, especially since Branford Marsalis was going to be there. I try to catch him whenever he [...]

While I was generally displeased with Arts, Beats, & Eats, there were a couple of things that made it worthwhile. My main reason for going was to get a chance to see Macy Gray. I was met with another treat, though, in the form of War.

I think that I can safely say that I will not be attending Arts, Beats, & Eats again. This event, touted as “outstanding family entertainment at a very low cost” on its own web site, was mostly a disappointment.

Bowling is not something that I do often, nor is it something at which I perform well. When I was a kid, I had my own ball and shoes and everything. I was still never good at it, though. Nevertheless, I like to bowl from time to time.

Happy Birthday!

…That is probably my favorite Anita Baker song. I did not expect her to sing it, but a girl can hope. I went to see Anita Baker live for the first time today, and it will probably be my last time. I am not the biggest fan of Anita Baker. I like most of her [...]

I am a Lenny Kravitz fan as much as the next person…well maybe more than the next person. He is my 18th most played artist according to my last.fm plays. This takes the cake, though. This has got to be the coolest thing that I have seen from an artist in a while. I am [...]

I finally regained access to my main computer and iPod after converting higher bit rate songs on it. iTunes finally showed “iPod sync is complete” around 1:10pm; however, when I tried to eject my iPod, I kept getting a message that iPod was still syncing. I just waited a few more minutes and then I [...]

I am writing this post on my original iBook. Yes, I mean clamshell, blueberry, 3GB HD, 300mhz, cd-rom! Apple does not even make iBooks anymore. I run 10.3.9 on this computer, which alone takes up most of my disk space. It usually takes all of five minutes of surfing the web for my cache to [...]

I was able to get free passes to see a preview screening of “Just Wright” starring Queen Latifah and Common today. This was after getting an email earlier in the week to get passes with a code that did not work. I just happened to check my email randomly earlier today and there was a [...]

Until today, I had never seen one of Tyler Perry‘s plays on DVD or in a theater. I have seen all of the movies, and I even own a copy of the Diary of a Mad Black Woman movie. I did not plan on seeing the play today, but here is how I happened to [...]

Today, I went to see Tyler Perry‘s Why Did I Get Married Too? with my parents and younger sister. I did not expect much from the movie, but I had seen the first movie and enjoyed it well enough. I was interested in seeing how some of the issues from the first film were resolved, [...]

If I am able to get past the first and maybe the second album, I still usually end up stopping buying an artist’s albums after the third. That is usually when they start to disappoint me. There are only a few remaining artists whose records I still buy every time they release one. These artists [...]

In the past couple of years, I have been trying to be more conscious of what is going on in the world around me. I have resorted to occasionally reading articles from what some deem as “news for idiots”–USA Today and my local papers. I get tired of always reading tragic and sad stories, though. [...]
