I'm pretty sure Kelly Rowland is allowed out and about. Kerri Hilson, OTOH, is probably on a milk carton somewhere...

True Story: Every year during the month of February, my HS hosted a clothing drive, which the Sophomore class was responsible for organizing. Every student was expected to volunteer during their lunch period at least once, with all further participation optional (it was kind of the "cool" thing to do, so most kids…

According to family legend*, my great-grandfather came to the U.S. through less-than-honest means. He came over from Ireland only to be told "We've reached our quota of Mics, go back." So, he went up to Canada and then came back to the U.S. a little bit later and was all "Hey, I'm from Canda. No quotas? Coolcoolcool."…
