Ajuma Nasanyana, the 23 year old Kenyan model was borned in Lodwar, Turkana , Kenya. She was discovered by a Kenyan Model Scout and the rest is history. She may not be the classic beauty to most people but she is fabulous with her gorgeous chocolate complexion and fierce walk! Please pray for her native home Kenya during their turmoil.

Cheryl "Salt" Wray and Sandra "Pepa" Denton

Eva Pigford is so fabulous to me. She is dating Lance Gross from that hideous Tyler Perry's show "House of Payne" but they make such a cute couple. I love Michelle Williams' photos for her new album or should we call it the whispering foolishness. Monique is rocking a fabulous mink maybe those cocaine dealer rumors are true? Janet Jackson is looking amazing for a 41 year old, watch out Beyonce! Salt and Pepa is also still looking great but why is that miscellaneous reality show coming back on?

You Can Launch a Nuke, but You Can't Drink a Beer

In my time in the Navy, I have met people under 21 who have been entrusted by the US Government to distinguish friend from crazed insurgent in Iraq, to fire on said insurgent, to maintain a nuclear reactor from turning into a big gooey mess, and to push the button that launches the ICBM nukes. However, the minute these people step into a bar after that long deployment for a cold one, the federal government says the barkeep has to toss them out in the street with the rest of the trash. This logic in the mindset of our policy makers has always confused me. Fortunately, a lone statesman from SC is making a stand to allow military members under 21 drink responsibly (H/T to OYE):

A state lawmaker wants to give members of the armed forces younger than 21 the right to buy alcohol even though it’s in stark contrast to the military’s efforts to diminish underage drinking and related accidents. “I really don’t think it should create a problem for the military. It might even enhance their morale,” Rep. Fletcher Smith said Wednesday.

Kudos to you Mr. Smith! It's about time the administration saw through the muddled rationale that was preventing our younger troops from the right to enjoy a beer now and then. Of course, Mr. Smith will most likely be met with opposition from a barrage of the values police, aka the Morale Suppression Squadron: The nice ladies over at MADD, the tolerant folks over at the Values Advocacy Council, and the modern women over at the Women's Christian Temperance Union. They'll most likely unleash a PR campaign that will equate the good folks at Budweiser to Satan himself. Well for whatever it's worth, this blog supports your position Mr. Smith. A true friend to the military!

Which Diva Wore It Better?

Melanie Brown and Victoria Beckham

Gwyneth Paltrow and Andrea Bowen

Carmen Electra and Paris Hilton
(Diane Von Furstenberg)

Victoria Beckham is fabulous! She rocks a different Hermes bag everyday(at least $10,000 a piece). Paris knows she is the best at I will pretend like I am not posing for the camera look, she is almost better than Rihanna.

I love Kelly Rowland because she is still smiling knowing her album was a Hot Mess! Say what you what to say but she is a trooper. Speaking of Hot Mess albums, Amerie is known for only one hit on an album. I am not a teenager so it has to be at least four hit songs in order for me to buy your CD!

Central Bank of Iraq is Up in Smoke

With the drop in violence in Baghdad, a lot of folks, both Iraqis and Americans, are starting to wonder when the hell the economy is going to pick up in Iraq. With oil, land for agriculture, and a large skilled labor pool, you'd think the place would sell itself. Idle hands are the devil's play thing, and unless Iraqis start getting employed with legit gigs, young males are going to continue gravitating towards Uncle Sadr to earn a quick buck. This whole central bank of Iraq catching on fire thing sure ain't helping matters. Iraq needs foreign investment from its neighboring richie-rich countries to rebuild the crappy infrastructure that was Saddam's legacy. None of these sheikhs in places like Qatar, Dubai, and Jordan are going to want to invest if they can't even count on records of their transactions holding up to the elements.

What's more cause for concern is that rumors are running around the Iraqi media that the whole thing was a conspiracy purported by the central government to cover up fraud. From Azzaman:

“The fires have turned into ash important documents condemning officials for corruption,” the statement said. Both fires caused no casualties and officials said Central Bank’s possessions of god (sic) and hard cash were safe. The statement demanded the formation of an independent investigation commission to “determine those causing such calamities.” Despite reports of massive corruption in which senior officials are said to be involved, the government has brought no one to justice so far.

This story has started to stir up rumors similar to the Basrah badger story that was running around the regional news this summer. For those not familiar, the Basrah badger was purportedly a nasty little creature released by the British stormtroopers to terrorize the unfortunate locals down south. The UK embassy actually had to issue a press release to deny it. So whether or not Maliki's government actually torched the bank is irrelevant, it's already a rumor circulating the region, which is like a slap in the face to sound finance in Iraq. Until that money starts flowing in, a lot of it will be on Uncle Sucker's dime (that's you, Mr. and Mrs. US taxpayer) to fix up this country. Just a big bunch of suck all around.

Just like when I torched my unprofitable comic book store

Stars attended the premiere for the movie "Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins" starring Martin Lawrence, Monique, Joy Bryant, Cedric and Mike Epps. Monique looks fabulous! I am so delighted that Joy Bryant finally have a job, I can't even focus on her dress. Is it me or Nicole Ari Parker is pregnant? That should be the only reason her stomach is poking out of her dress.I know this is one of those Chitlin movies but I love Martin, Cedric and Monique and I will support them.
