MLK Day!
Today is Martin Luther King’s Birthday. I think we may have forgotten what the man stood for. We have turned the celebration of his ideas into a one day event just like the presidents birthdays and Independence Day. We are so focused on the parade or just the fact that we get the day off [...]
Get yourself on TV!
Hey Hey, Look what I found… Skyline Productions is looking for the full figured for a casting call for a reality show based around the life of a plus-sized person. They are looking for that “Thick N’ Sassy” attitude so that they can put us in a positive light. Which we all [...]
WTF, 3 Strikes Against Curvy Women
I read an article by Fester Whipple, from October 1, 2010 that was posted on Shine from Yahoo and I wanted to share some of its finer points with you. The title of it is 3 Strikes Against Curvy Women.

Only In Texas
Ok, as most of you know things are different in Texas. Football is a religion, hair is big, cows are pets and you can ride your horse downtown. And that is in the major cities… If you have ever been or driven thru then you know what I mean. Yesterday I experienced another “only in Texas” [...]
Happy 4th of July!
Happy 4th of July! We used to call today “Independance Day”. It still is referred to as that sometimes but we have grown to know it as simply “the 4th”. It tends to loose the meaning with that name but we as Americans seem to be ok with that. (we shouldn’t) Today you will have [...]

Guess What… It Failed!
Check this out… BP had the following to say about their great idea… “BP PLC Chief Operating Officer Doug Suttles said the company determined the “top kill” had failed after it spent three days pumping heavy drilling mud into the crippled well 5,000 feet underwater. More than 1.2 million gallons of mud was used, but most of it escaped [...]
