Okay, so for awhile maybe I did…
But the Booties are Back!
And now we are in the Elite 8 bracket.

Dang, this is just not the week for black male celebrities… here is another sad loss.

You still got that glow, baby!

What, did you think I forgot? The contest ain’t over til I say it’s over…
Booty Showdown, the Saga Continues!

I think you will enjoy.

This was originally said by Pat Buchanan (who was probably quoting someone else), but repeated in an interview by a book author on NPR. He said this specifically in reference to the Hip-Hop phenomenon:

“Every great cause begins as a movement, then it becomes a business, and eventually degenerates into a racket”

I miss real Hip-Hop too… is it really a racket now, or am I just getting old?

Sorry, there haven’t been many updates as of late. We’ve been vacationing/catching up on work/spending times with friends… you know, basically enjoying real life (instead of virtual) for a change. But now we are settling back into our normal schedule — so expect some fresh posts soon.

BTW, San Fran and Napa were wonderful! Check below for a brief synopsis of the trip and photos:

We’ve been to San Francisco many times, so there was some obvious touristy stuff that we just skipped. This time around, we just made it a point to visit a few museums - then stroll around aimlessly, letting our whims guide the way. We tried to get a Segway Tour, but an unfortunate traffic accident on the Golden Gate Bridge made us miss our reservation. We settled for drinks instead.

Here is my favorite set of photos from the trip — this is where we stumbled into Musee Mecanique, a strange little collection of Carnival machines and arcade games from yesteryear. Below, DH is testing his mettle on the “Strong Man Machine”

After a few days in San Fran, we scuttled over to Napa to do the wine train thing (which was delicious, highly recommended). We also checked out downtown Napa and a few wineries. Rombauer Vineyards and the gardens at Frog’s Leap were by far my favorite (as far as facilities go).

In total this was a great trip. Next time, we will have to plan better and spend more than a few days… but i’ll take whatever I can get.
If anyone’s planning a trip in Napa, and looking for a good bed-n-breakfast — I highly recommend the Inn on First. The rooms are great and the owners are very welcoming and well-informed of the area — plus, one of them is a chef (so breakfasts’ are extra yum!)

Just in case you haven’t seen the latest Reverend Wright shenanigans, here it is:

Now, you have to admit… that sh*t is funny! Rev. Wright makes me giggle–because he has seemingly no concept of proper media relations. He is like that drunk uncle that keeps showing up to party’s uninvited and embarrassing you. Why won’t he just sit down? Poor Obama is is going to have to hire some thugs and lock him down before too long… lawd, lawd.

EDITED: Just to clarify, the point is not whether you agree or disagree with Rev. Wright’s comments… the point is whether this is an appropriate time (ahem, during his friends election?) or place (ahem, a large public forum where words can be taken out of context/blown-up/etc?) Your drunken uncle may have valid points when he starts mouthing off in public. But honestly, is anybody going to listen?

New booties, get your new booties here!

Fear not. I didn’t forget about our contest, it was just put on the backburner for awhile…

Will the real women stand up?

In the Hourglass Division of our competition we have:
Salma Hayek and Monica Bellucci

(Jeley, try not to drool on your monitor)

Sorry its been slow… Work has been busy, yadda-yadda-yadda. I just haven’t had the time to dedicate to the next booty posting. But enough with my excuses…

The masses demand asses!

And I promise I shall give them to you, soon. I am busy editing the next challenge. So expect some gluteal-distractions from your Monday meetings next week.
