No Angela/Shawn mention? This post is not relevant to my interests.

Not even gonna lie; i'm crying at my desk because that is real love, parental or otherwise. Glad your dad got to share that with you.

Moisture, I'd think. Check Curlynikki. Also Mixed chicks and Shea Moisture have lots of curl-defining (nonsulfate) shampoos, conditioners, & products. You might also want to google 3A, 3B or 3C hair (hair type as defined by Andre).

Funny you should mention it, because your comment and what it says about you is quite similar.

I will always love Tadashi Shoji for making elegantly feminine dresses for a variety of sizes. If I ever had anywhere to go that called for it, i'd buy one if his dresses in a heartbeat. Totally worth the $$$.

honestly, it's stuff like this that keeps me married. No way in hell could I survive dating now.

I remember in the early days of Oxygen, there was an erotica show called "bliss" that i watched religiously, and a sex advice show with an older woman — Dr. Sue something?

'Mufaro's Beautiful Daughters (John Steptoe) is an African cinderella story that I prefer to the euro version. Madeline is a classic, and I rather like the Olivia books by Ian Falconer. Summer Jackson Grown Up is on my wish list for my daughter's birthday.

So this means if I get my [black, natural] hair done like this, I'll be considered au curant and chic instead of 'rachet' or 'ghetto', right?

Seriously. So does this mean we can wear goddess braids and Senegalese twists to work now? We can just say we're GoT fans, right?

God, yes. I need Naomie as a visible and an ass-kicking foil to Bond in this franchise. I wish they'd utilsed her more in Skyfall, but one can only hope the best of Moneypenny is yet to come.

What if I'm a lowly admin? Nobody really cares to make friends/network with the admin assistants. From what I've seen, I (and people in my field, I guess you'd call it?) are considered pretty much interchangeable and not really in a 'career'. I like my job, but it feels like this is advice for someone with a…

Every time I see this, I wish I could set up a playdate between my daughter and his son. Oh, the stories this kid probably has.

Adorable — and catchy!

But of course! Everybody knows that White Bike week is a seven-day long festival of gentility, "Civility", and manners!* It's just like Gone With the Wind, just on Harleys!

Actually, it's more likely that Myrtle Beach longs for the days of segregation, when black folks had to vacation at Atlantic (now North) Myrtle beach, leaving the Grand Strand for the white people. It's a known fact that most of the hotels, shops and general citizenry of MB hate Black Bike week and do everything they…

Actually, yes. You don't really hear about this kind of crackdown (ahem) during White Bike Week.

Pretty much. They get really creative with the noise ordinance and nuisance enforcement, too, from what I understand.

Exactly.

Let me guess: [Black] Bike week, right? What, no reports of the stores shutting their doors early and bemoaning the plight of "the wrong element" come to spend their money and make Their Nice Town (tm) look bad?
