Comment on A Rotten Apple (Store) by Tom Drapeau’s Blog » Apple May Have Set The “Genius” Bar Too High

Sat, 24 Oct 2009 19:49:57 +0000

[...] However, the service I’m seeing these days in the Apple retail stores is not what I would call exemplary. I think there are some good eggs in the Genius bar (one guy did a decent job on a HD problem my wife was having, although that goodness was eventually canceled out.) [...]

One of the best EVER written! If everyone I know would read and RETAIN at least a fraction of whats offered up, MY world would be a much better one and , most likely, at least part of my faith in people restored. (Hows that for a book review!) Thanks for the opportunity to say so, and a big, fat, arm pump goes out to you and your club for reading the good stuff. You couldn’t PAY most women I know NOT to read …….well you know….Thanks again……here’s to the B#@!*#’s with Brains!

Damn straight! I would be in jail too. I would have been on his head before he even got close enough to slap one of my kids.

Comment on A Book That’s Long and Dry by Shay Wade

I still don’t know. I can’t get the story out of my head. I guess that’s what the author would want, except it’s starting to annoy me. I don’t think that is what she was going for.

So happy to hear Kid Wonder is doing well, and as I would assume, so are you. Is it not a wonder how are children can be so resilient to illnesses.
It brings me to the case for a natural food diet as one of the most logical ways to live (as best we can)
Looking forward to the engagement party congratulations to the both or to all of you. Love and success!

It’s not crazy to get braces before your wedding. You want to look your best and a smile is a big part of that, especially on your wedding day

Besides, I know the pain – I had all of my wisdom teeth extracted in the spring and now I have braces too, and all so I can have the perfect smile on my wedding day too

Comment on Shopping for a Big Girl by Madame Matriarch

Cuzn!!! This is, by far, the funniest thing I have read this year . . . You are hillarious just like my uncle. . .

Any who, Boo, the key to walking high heels is to NOT THINK ABOUT WALKING IN HIGH HEELS and JUST WALK . . .
“Sexy” comes with holding your shoulders back, sticking your chest out and sucking your stomach inward {If you’re doing all the above, you don’t have time to think about wearing high heels}.
Another good idea is to FIRST walk on carpet in the heels or in the grass before you walk on hard floors. An alternative would be to get yourself a nice pair of wedges or chunky heels as a good practice.

Love ya cuzn . . .call me

Comment on So Much To Talk About by Shay Wade

Thanks, Ronni. Good to know. I’ve only ever known one Tiana and that was back in middle/high school.

Thanks for reading.

Your comments are true– painfully so. As a young Black girl, my mom refused to buy any doll for me that wasn’t Black because she wanted me to learn self-love. That meant I missed out on all the Disney and many of the Barbie items that didn’t reflect the beauty of my caramel tone, or the mocha and chocolate tones of my friends and relatives. I’m ecstatic that Disney has finally acknowledged us, but I am saddened by the story they have chosen to adapt with which to finally present a Black princess.

I really only responded to let you know (wink, wink) that Tiana is a fairly common name in the Black community. I currently know 4. Just an FYI. Thanks for the commentary!
