Flashing Lights #4

Why so serious, bb? Maybe he likes the blue kind better? Grumpy Morgy. :(

Pearl Bailey and her husband, Louie Bellson. Y'all know she was a Republican?

WHEN WILL THE MADNESS CEASE?

I think Aretha wore it better, actually. Ellen's too small.

Found another one...

*CB Walker: Mah Lourd*

Found here.

On Repeat #3

Judy in Disguise (with glasses) - John Fred and his Playboy Band

First time I heard this song, I was struck by how strange it was, but also how I really liked it. It also seemed sexy, but hearing it again recently, a part of it reminded me of Lil Wayne. #way-zay-bay-bay#

Billie Jean (RMX) - Michael Jackson + Kanye West

I really like the original and this is a nice re-interpretation of it; 'Ye didn't bastardize it.

That's Life - Frank Sinatra

If this isn't the EPITOME of the goddamn blues, I dunno what is.

Never Let You Go - Third Eye Blind

I really like this song, it's so stripperish. So is this one:

Oh Yeah - End of Fashion

I could see a routine done to this. Nice "Where is my Mind" rip.

Once in a Lifetime - Beyonce

Saw Cadillac Records, Beyonce definitely was NOT Etta James. But this was a nice end theme.

OOH!

Enjoy.

LOL#6

The Juggarnaut put it best: WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT? Found this over at Sandra Rose and I am laughing my fat ass off. But doesn't he look too cute? Apparently a lot of ppl want Aretha Franklin's hat.

Need a little...

Ooooooh! SHOCK TREATMENT
Get ya jumpin' like a real live wire
Need a little...
Ooooooh! SHOCK TREATMENT
So look out, Mister
Don't you blow ya last resistor
For a sister that will mystify ya.

I love this movie. A lot of ppl give it hell because it's a "sequel" to the Rocky Horror Picture Show, but I think it's really good. Everything a musical should be: interesting story, lots of color, catchy songs.

The Tragedy of Titus Andronicus

I think it's my favorite Shakespeare play, right next to Othello. It's a pretty good movie, too.

OMG

This baby has what I have!

It's kinda weird, but sometimes I forget about my birthmark, but then again, I don't really. Like, I know it's there, but I don't think about it too much. Only mostly when I'm in public and I catch someone looking at me or I'll be talking with someone and their eyes linger for a second or three. I have a brief moment of "What are they--OH, right." It doesn't really bother me because I know it's not everyday you see someone with a large, dark, mole on their face. I know because I haven't seen anybody in person, or in the media for that matter, with anything like what I have. That being said, I also know that there are ppl out there that do have what I have. However, a lot of ppl cover their birthmarks. I can understand why, but I don't see the point. I mean, eventually, hopefully, you're gonna meet somebody and have an intimate relationship and they're going to see you without the makeup, so why hide it? I don't think ppl should do that, it's a part of who you are and also, it adds to diversity. I'm just a big believer in not changing what doesn't need to be changed. If it isn't a health concern, leave it alone.

Sometimes I wonder how it would be if I didn't have it; it wouldn't be a big whoop, I'd look exactly like my sister. I always sorta thought maybe it is a good thing I have a birthmark, so ppl can tell us apart, but it turns out it's not much help.

It's not like life is bad with it, I just get looked at and occasionally asked about it. When I do get asked, I have the thought of acting like I don't know what they're talking about, but I always forget. When I was younger, little kids would ask me how the time, now it's gotten rare. Sometimes ppl would ask if it hurts and even rarer, if they could touch it.

I do feel a little reluctant to show ppl my pictures over the internet, though. Y'know any picture posted out there for anyone to see is subject to cruelty, but as ugly as I feel sometimes (strangely, that's unrelated to the birthmark), ppl think I'm good-looking. Or at least have the common decency not to tell me I'm a troll.

Anyway, he's an orphan and the foster home he's in has a lot of videos of the other orphans. They're cute, but it's kinda sad because some of them have defects. I know maybe their parents gave them away because they couldn't handle them financially, but it's really heartbreaking to think about. Here are some other videos:






Oh yeah, Ewan McGregor got his mole removed. I thought it was cute. :(

Tutti Frutti

Why come evry time I see a picture of black women, age is not really important, in a casual setting, they're always sticking their butts out? I don't get it. Who does this appeal to? Instead of your nice smile, would you rather be known for your big ass? Is that all you have to offer anybody? Why dehumanize yourself that way? WHAT IS REALLY GOOD?
