Released momentarily from the grip of corporate America...
You know its bad when twin-sets excite you. What is a twin-set? I would have asked the same question a few weeks ago before I began shopping for conservative work clothes. As I browsed the racks of Macy's and held up a pale pink cardigan with matching pink "shell", a saleswoman approached and said, "That's a lovely twin-set". She said lovely in that way that certain women do... With Clenched teeth and extra lower lip movement for added emphasis. The "twin-set" was $74 and I put it back. Later in the day I was at TJ Maxx... and true to their slogan, I got the Maxx for the minimum... the same twin set for $19.99. I felt a small wave of excitement when I found it in my size, same brand and all... followed by a wave of dread when I realiz
ed that I was excited about a twin-set... (R: ----> clinched-teeth lovely Twin set from Polo.com)
Keeping i
n the political spirit... I was wondering what you think of Kanye West's new song...Diamonds From Sierra Leone... at first I was excited... Kanye always kind of straddles the line between political and popular and I thought this might be the tipping point, but the lyrics are the same-old same old... for more on this, check out WhuDat.com... a nice little spot for modern day hip-hop info... (the government tags section of this site is kinda fun... Who knew Queen Latifa's real name is Dana Owens (I know you knew AZ))?
Lastly, if Kanye doesn't quite do it for you, you should check out West-Coast rappers Zion I. Their new album, True and Livin, is HOT... between Zion I and Tahir I'm actually starting to like music again. Anyway, time to don the twin-set...
