Toshica’s Finest

Toshica’s Finest

During a recent trip to the grocery store, I walked in the hair care aisle and noticed a brand called Toshica’s Finest. I thought to myself: “You know what?

Who’s The Master?

I’ve kind of gotten into a bit of a rut lately, but getting away from DC and heading to the Blogging While Brown conference was exactly what I needed.

“I Have A Great Relationship With the Blacks”

Sorry to quote Donald Trump, but I could not resist. What better way to segue into asking you all to nominate me for a couple of Black Weblog Awards? The man is a billionaire with worse hair than a feral alley cat, but even his politcally incorrect faux paus are somewhat entertaining. I won’t make fun of him too much for [...]
