History!

Today the fam and I went to the Inaugeration kickoff concert at the Lincoln Memorial and let me tell you it was Amazing! I've never seen so many people in one place at the same time, and I was there in the midst. Black people, white people, asians, latinos, middle eastern, african, errybody was representing there! We couldn't even get down to the memorial, shoo not even to the reflection pool but had to find a spot on the monument grounds because it was so packed. This is sooooo exciting and one day I'll be able to tell my daughter and any future children that I have that I was there when history was made.







Now onto Tuesday. To be continued.....

Question

If you're close to the age of 50 is it appropriate to have Put A Ring On It as your ringtone? As a matter of fact if you're over the age of 40 shouldn't you just have one of those generic ringtones that comes with the phone? Maybe it's just me, but I think Jay-Z really got people's head twisted up with this whole "40 is the new 30" ish.

Everest



Whenever I work from home I have a chance to see certain commercials that air during the week, during the Jerry and Maury hours, that you don't get to see on the weekends. One of which is the Everest College commercials. Boy they sure know how to make a non-job having living in their momma basement slacker feel like crap.

Most commercials begin with a person of color *figures* basically saying this: "I know you sitting home on the couch cause you ain't got sh*t else to do so you might as well make something of your pathetic life and go to school" *smhlmao*!

The best one I've seen has to be with the light skinned chick, whom I swear I went to school with, saying "ladies you gotta hold down the household right? You gotta pay the bills right? Hellooooo I had a child young and I did it so get yo ass up and call right now cause if I did it so can you." I seriously think she needs to be a motivational speaker!

Now I'm not knocking Everest, since I'm pretty sure it has good programs, I'm just knocking their advertising/marketing approach. Don't think calling someone is a loser that needs to get off their ass and go to school is the right strategy......or is it? Hmmmm.....
