My response: "Black people, cut the bullshit!"

Dumb Dumb, Sarah Palin is back to her boring, pre-expense account wardrobe. But I do love the new do.

Is Clothing Tax Back For New York City???

On Tuesday, 12/16 our "blind, crack loving" (as SNL called him) Governor Patterson proposed sales tax on clothing for New York City again. Luxury goods (furs, couture, jewelery, etc.) costing over $20,000 will have a 5% sales tax. Guess I won't be getting my David Yurman ring. Just when you thought it would not affect you he's also trying to bring back the sales tax on clothing and shoes under $110. Instead we'll get 2 sessions one week sales tax free, probably for back to school and the begining of the year. Who elected this man in... oh thats right he's governer by default. Thanks Spitzer. Patterson is almost as bad as Bloomberg.

We Did It!

I came across this picture yesterday created by the creative director of Grey NYC and today I am proud to say let the issues be the issue. Let us not be worried about the color of someone skin but about what they can do for us. A whopping 94% of people in DC voted for Obama. We did it!

Obama Obssesed

The scene: Harlem - 125th St. at 10pm passing a table full of Obama paraphernalia. The embellished tees and hoodys go for $20 to $100. The designer claims MTV bought one for $80 dollars and Olivia (who?) bought one too. The designs are actually pretty cool. This is a bad picture but he’s always on 125th St., check him out.
