    BLIND ITEM: (UNSAVORY)



    Introduction: The general public knows the identity of "Hollywood Batterers," due to media coverage but a few slip under the radar.



    Rewind:



    A popular black celebrity was known for putting a percentage of his paycheck aside for possible lawsuits involving physical abuse directed towards women; an impulse he can't seem to control.  He loved to slap and punch women. He also hoisted them up for flocking.  Their screams of pain was a turn on; the only way he could achieve arousal. 



    His abuse was brutal but he paid well even though it took months for the women to heal.  When he started this sick practice, he often requested black women and then he began to mix it up.  When he's on cocaine (his favorite drug) he gets experimental and freaky.  On rare occasions, he's been with a few men, interestingly, he never heaped abuse on men because he considered it inappropriate.



    Fast Forward:



    He had so much potential when he arrived in Hollywood and he made millions!  But, unfortunately, he got caught up and Hollywood turned him all the way out!  I've seen him a few times, coked up out of his mind, riding his motorcycle without a helmet down PCH (Pacific Coast Highway) like a speed demon.



    At that time, when he made up his mind to end a relationship with a woman.  He would never tell her, instead, she would have to hear about it in an interview or on TV.  Allegedly, he can take a woman through massive changes in a relationship with his erractic and bizarre behavior; including the women he marries.



    Now, we're receiving word that he took out a seven figure loan from shady characters.  Unsavory types.  These loan sharks want their money back-as our abusive celebrity desperately tries to raise the cash to prevent bodily harm.



    Since his career is pretty much dead in the water-he no longer makes millions, he's only paid a fraction of what he used to make. He's pretty much been reduced to begging for jobs just to pay off this debt.  He completed two projects and turned the proceeds over to his loan shark but he still has a balance left.



    Who is he?

      I think its Martin Lawrence b/c he broke up with Lark Voorhies (Lisa Turtle- Saved By the Bell) on T.V. during an interview b4 he got married. That was while his show was still on. Of course we've all heard about his drug use and irratic behavior and we haven't heard much of him since Run Tell Dat. He recently had the comedy show "1st Amendment" on Showtime but it never blew up that I'm aware of!

        Martin has done two Disney movies {College Road Trip and Wild Hogs}not to mention Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins...

        He's got enough cash that he won't hurt for a while, besides, he can always hit the stand-ups again. His name alone would draw huge numbers...

      This sounds just like Martin Lawrence, although I would have never guessed him to get off on abusing women. That is horrible. But MArtin is a Nut case. I believe that's why his ex divorced him and got with Emitt Smith. That's what I heard....

    Hello PR Fam,

    Gary is a good guess and yes he was married to Roshumba Williams for like 2 years. As for the rape charge in 2005 he pleaded no contest to misdemeanor battery after his ex-girlfriend Anne Greene accused him of rape and battery.

      Hey Teina! unless notted below I'll go with Wesley also. It's been said on here before when Wes is coked up he doesn't mind experimenting. His career has hit bottom. The tax fiasco would drive him to a loan shark. And is there a woman he's been with that he hasn't abused?! However I only know of one marriage.

      I haven't seen any of those and the BI said he only gets a paid a fraction of what he used to make. He might have only gotten a fraction of the millions he used to pull in.....

      I still say Martin Lawrence.

      This reaks Martin Lawrence to me.

      Don't be sorry. I feel the same way about OJ, I don't give a damn what happens to him. And it's not b/c I think he really killed Nicole. I accept the jury's verdict on it. But it's the fact that you've been acquitted once on some serious stuff, and now you're still out clowning, tempting fate? He's either retarded or the world's most serious buffoon. I have a feeling that if they don't isolate him from the prison's general population, he'll be able to put those Hertz running-through-the-airport skills to good use.

        Hey Teina,

        The rumor with legal insiders is that OJ son killed Nicole. That is what I have always heard during conversations.

        I'm just a paralegal but the judges and attorneys think it was the son and OJ covered for him. The rumor is he is skitzo and had a thing for Nicole. He had came on to her and she turned him down and the next thing you know ole boy was at the condo and it set him off.

        If I'm wrong someone on here will correct me but that's just what I've heard over the years from legal insiders.

          I believe in my heart Jason did it. After reading and seeing what I did about the Jason theory, I truly believe it was him. And did anyone see after the bronco chase when OJ went back home, Jason approached the truck in the driveway and OJ was screaming and cursing him out, that was even more telling. Why was he so mad at Jason?

On some other thread I believe an insider dropped that he likes coke and will have relations with a man but prefers women. He has serious martial arts skills so I can imagine a battering by him would take months to heal. And brutal beatings are the only way to get an errection? Frued would have a field day with someone like this. Absolutely sickening!

      Don't know if it's Snipes or not but I will tell you this. I was a student/teacher in Shotokan and we entered a tournament in NY a few years back. Mr. Snipes was a contender in the Men's black belt kumite(fight) division. Well, he was 3rd degree at the time and literally kicked his opponent so hard that he broke and dislocated the guy's jaw. Serious. Wesley doesn't play. He recruited one of my student, Ebonee to play the little girl in Blade that was kicking butt. Wesley has MADD Martial arts skills and I don't doubt his ability to kill another man with a few moves. He is also very arrogant and mean-spirited although my own father thinks this jerk walks on water.

    I am going to follow the people who guesses Wesley Snipes. This Blind item is right on time I just read Black Widow by Nikki Turner. One of the main characters was married to a loan shark to the stars.

And big ups to Oprah for being a true spiritual sister to Jen and letting her heal at her place in private--that is what sisterhood/humanity is truly about.

I think for Red Carpet events she will sometimes put extensions in her hair but I agree. I don't use chemicals in my hair and it is very strong and healthy. I wear a short natural though but It grows amazingly fast and I cut my hair every two weeks. I am convinced it's because I left the relaxers alone. I wouldn't doubt that Michelle is relaxer free. Until recently, neither Sasha nor Malia's hair was "straight".

              They can indeed be combed out but the success of it depends on the texture of your hair...the softer your hair, the more easily it is done. I locked for a year a long long time ago and then changed my mind. My hair is soft so even though they had "locked", I was able to unfurl them using a thin comb and my hands. I now have thin locs that I set on twisty rollers now so that I can style them in very "conventional" styles. I think that my current locs are too thin to comb out without risking breakage. But It can be done.

              The more course your hair texture, the tighter the coil that createst the locs, so if your texture is tightly curled, combing the locs out successfully is probably unlikely.

                Hey CocoaPeach? How are you sis?

                Did you make the transition directly from the loc take down to Sisterlocs? I'm curious because I've had my hair in locs for 2 1/2 years and most of it is still not fully locked. I wanted to transition to Sisterlocs next Spring, but I was just going to cut it off and start again. Now that I'm used to having longer hair, I'm punking out a bit. I'd be thrilled if I could take these down and start the sisterlocs at my current length.

                Also, how do you like the Sisterlocs? I haven't met anyone personally who has them, but I like how they look in pictures. I usually wear my locs in a roller set or crinkles and with my hair texture I'd probably keep it wavy in Sisterlocs.

                  Hi Sin,

                  I split my dreadlocks to make them thinner. I had had dreads for 6 years before splitting them (they were pencil thickness prior to splitting) like yourself mine would never fully bind & I also had long roots..

                  I got quite frustrated with them and considered cutting them, But instead discovered that if I separted the roots then looped the lock back through the root a few times ( so you get a Y shape) keep looping until the roots are nice and tight.
                  Leave it for a few weeks ( a couple of months is good!)

                  I then found I could unravel the body of the loc by teasing them apart from the top working your way down the middle of the loc using a pin then pulling and tugging (and a tiny bit of ripping when my arms got tired and I realised it was working lol) all the way down the lock
                  I palm rolled and spritzed with water as I went.

                  (Another friend has done this two but she was hard core and used a razor instead of a pin to split them but the result was the same..)

                  I split them all in batches over the course of a week.. I must admit it took ages to settle down (LOTS of shedding when I washed my hair for AGES afterwards)

                  Anyway That was 2 years ago and I no longer have long roots!! My dreads are tighter and the separation process immediately stretches the locs so that they are longer and thinner than when you started.

                  If you dont want to go the route of snipping off what you have cultivated so far just to start again with sister locs this might work for you too?

                  Mine arent as thin as Siterlocs but they are very pliable and easy to style.

                  just another option

                    Hey hapihapi! Thanks for answering! I change my mind about what I'm going to do with my hair all the time.

                    My roots are pretty long and the back ones were really puffy for a while (the front of my hair is mostly straight/wavy). I tried the interlock method in the back a few months ago and it has help to keep my roots in check.

                    I may reconsider going the sisterloc route, as I explained to CocoaPeach, because I don't want to deal with the breakage. My hair is thick, but because it's really soft it can be fragile. I'll see how it behaves this winter and decide what to do with it come spring. I'm at least gonna start using henna treatments this month to cover my grays and deep condition the locs.

                  Hey Sin7 I'm doing well.

                  I don't actually have the locs done by the "Sisterlocs" techinique but I describe them that way because they are the same thickness and I curl them. I started my locs through two strand twists. I loe them. I always roller set them (and I have these bedtime beauty rituals so if I didn't have my rollers I would prubably have a meltdown.)

                  If you can roller set our locs then I wouldn't bother with the actual sisterlocs technique. My best friend had hers done using the technique and hers break off quite a bit.

                  I don't wear them wavy at all--except that sometimes from the time I get up at 5 to the time I go to bed at night the curls fall into what could be called waves.

                    I'm on the fence because I've read some good things about sisterlocs, but I've never seen them in person. My locs range in thickness from the width of a phone cord to that of chopsticks. When I have a roller set they look like curly fries! lol. I'm afraid that if I get them thinner I might get some breakage as my hair takes a while to train.

                    For waves I wash and twist my hair and braid six locs at a time. Then I set the braids on rollers while I blowdry it. I usually take the rollers out before bed and let the braids stay in over night. The end result is crinkly/wavy hair with full body and it lasts for weeks without further styling. It's much easier than it sounds! When I roller set I use rods to keep the curls in place between washes.

                      I may try the wavy technique you described. I don't roller set my locs on weekends to give it a rest but that sounds like it may be less harsh than twisting it around the rollers.

              My hair is soft also. I used to interlock my locs so it was harder to take them down. I only lost about a handful of hair. I love my fro. But I mostly wear it curly by washing it and using two products. Another way to take your locs out is by letting them grow with at least 5 inches of new growth (wearing them in a ponytail) and then cut them. That way you will have at least some length to your hair first.

                I need some suggestions on products that will soften and moisturize my hair. My hair is so dry and hard but I just recently cut the last of the perm out and I was wearing a ponytail before that. Any suggestions or tips on ways to get my hair extra soft.

      Hey Cocoa,

      Funny you brought up Michelle Obama's hair. Yesterday while at the salon getting my mane relaxed there was a debate admist the 'Hispanics for Obama' posters mind you, about Michelle not having 'good' hair. The irony was that anyone daring to step in that shop that wasn't an Obama supporter better have kept it to themselves. Yet, Michelle just can't get that 100% approval because her hair is 'too' black. Did I mention this debate was being held by Dominicans? The one most disapproving of Michelle's hair texture just so happens to have the same hair type. She did point out however that she could give Michelle a first lady type blow out. Oh she does have skills I give her that but that 'good' hair 'bad' hair just reminded me we've got plenty of work to do!

I know plenty of people wearing natural hair and African clothing who are dumber than a box of rocks and nowhere near mentally aware. That being said, don't put words in my mouth. If you have some sort of issue with people who wear natural hair--take it out elsewhere and on someone else.

      My hair is thick and it comes to the middle of my back below my bra strap. I got tired of going to salon and the girls either cut it off or breaking it off so I stopped relaxing my hair.

      I have about 3 inches of relaxer remaining and all I do is wash condition and flat iron my hair on my own. I preshampoo with cocanut oil and ORS. I saturate my hair with the cocanut oil / ORS and put a plastic cap on it overnight. The next day I shampoo and condition as normal blow dry and flat iron. I spary with a little oilsheen that has mink oil before flat ironing and you would think I had a relaxer. I have been doing this for two years and my hair is very healthy.

      I'm a little lazy becuse my hair is so thick I usually wash it every 3 weeks.

      If you blow dry your hair daily on a low setting it helps keep it straight without using a lot of direct heat. This alters the texture of your hair and when you wash and blow dry you have letting pressing to do because your hair is already trained.

            Also there is a technique called "pooing" I believe. It's where you only use shampoo every once in a while BUT you use conditioner everytime you "wash" ur hair. The shampoo has alcohol which dries your hair but the conditioner keeps it soft and conditioned. If you "wash" your hair without using shampoo your hair will get softer.

              On a Friday night I saturate my scalp and hair with cocanut oil and a little ORS and cover it with a plastic cap and sometime the next morning when I feel like tackeling it, I wash as normal with Johnson's baby shampoo, rinse and style as normal. My hair is always soft and shinny and it is never dry or oily.

              I usually put a little moisturizer on the ends of my hair and I use Mazini oil sheen spry. I jsut rub a little oilve oil in the palm of my hands and put it on the ends of my hair and keep it moving. This keeps my ends from splitting and getting brittle.

              My great grandma used to take care of our hair this way and I just went back to what she did inthe 70's and it works for me.

            Bingo on the pigtails. Separate it into sections and wash it in the shower. Don't try to wash it like you see on television. You have to be very gentle, wash and detangle, and don't bunch it up on your head. I have really long hair now after years of learning how to treat it. Interestingly, the women who used to turn their noses up at my "nappy hair" now stop and compliment me on how long it is.

My daughter has that nappy tight curl in her hair and she is natural also. I blow it every night and now her hair is straight and when I use the flat iron you can't tell the difference from a relaxere.

          These products were given to me as a gift, and my hair is moisturized, de tangled and shiny. This is a small company who make their products by hand. It is owned by a Black husband and wife team. Their products are excellent. I also like their Burnt Sugar Pomade for two strand twists and bantu knots. Maybe their products will help you.

      That was me that opened that can of worms by remarking on how I would feel if Michelle grew Dread locks!

      I got fed up battling with hairdressers and had natural hair for years prior to growing locks.. (The UK's damp weather constantly won the battle with my blown out hair though as my hair is quite fine).

      My initial guesses for the BI were Wesley, Gary and Eddie.

        Hello. I read the original comment and although you and sis Lit disagreed, I saw both perspectives. I took your comment, not as an indictment of women who choose to wear their hair straight, but rather as a "wish" that a beautiful, classy, high-profile woman such as Michelle, might make locs more acceptable and dare I say "beautiful" to mainstream America.

        I understood that.

        I say though--that if a sister as gorgeous as Goepele couldn't bring the mainstream around--its just not happening anytime soon. She was/is beautiful and has beautiful locs.

        We are all stunning--irrespective of how we choose to wear our hair, but as a woman who has been happy and nappy for most of my life--I also realize that straightened hair is considered the beauty norm and I agree that it would be nice to see beauty become more inclusive of all of our textures.

    IMDb.com shows that Snipes's only project this year was "The Art Of War II: Betrayal", which went straight to DVD. He recently completed "Gallowalker", which is slated for release next year (I read that if "Gallowalker" goes to the theatres, it will be his first theatrical release since 2004). These are two projects, which fits the BI.

    However, it isn't true that Snipes isn't working. IMDB shows that "Brooklyn's Finest" (slated for 2009 release) is now filming, and "Chasing The Dragon" (also slated for 2009 release) is in production. However, it can certainly be said that Wesley Snipes's career is "pretty much dead in the water", since six movies that he has been in since 2004 have gone straight to DVD.

          There are a great many "tax protestors" quite a bit more well-off and well-connected than most of us--who are in federal prison for trying to use the UCC, Constitution, and any number of other previously rejected arguments to avoid paying income tax. My advice--pay the tax. The IRS is nothing to mess with. They get their man and they get their money. Ask Wesley...

          Please research it on your own and don't listen to any number of people giving seminars on this crap. They will disappear when the feds come to get you.

    Wesley was hiding out in Geneva Switzerland running through the escort agencies. Wonder if the loan shark money mentioned in the blind item, is this the money that paid the government fine levied against him, hmm? If this is him. I know when he starred in that film with Sean Connery, the exotic woman in there, I heard she slept with him to get the role, Tia Carrere I think her name is. She lost a bundle investing in nightclubs that went bellied up in L.A.

    GS, remember when a bunch of us went to Wes's ex gf's restaurant, he had given her money to open a chinese restaurant. She was so sweet, she didn't charge us. He took her through it, he just doesn't abuse black women, he abused her and she was chinese. He didn't even tell her that the restaurant was closing, she showed up to open up and it was chained shut.

            I don't believe that ish for a minute. Hillary and Bill compromised their relationship with Blacks, refused to concede in the face of defeat until the grumblings got too loud from the public and political pundits to be ignored. And never convincingly supported Barack IMO. The only justification for her statements to me is if she knows there's no way in hell she'll get a position in Obama's camp. But I seriously doubt she'll turn it down unless she feels it's a position that doesn't allow her enough visibility and control.

They say the books don't even feature Tara's mom and Tara was a different personality in the book. They don't know why the show is going this way with Tara, but I think it was for the comedy/drama factor.

      Lobbyist, you are correct, there are a lot of supporters that are going to want to be paid back in some way. Kerry supported Obama over H.

He is going to have to reward those that came through for him, attract and comfort those who never supported him, and do the right things for the country ... all at the same time. I have no concern about his intelligence, ability to learn and adjust strategy very quickly, and ability to present a strong argument defending his viewpoint ... but this job is exponentially difficult.

    Wesley Snipes. Didn't Halle say in an interview that she was with a man who abused her so badly that she's partially deaf in one ear. She didn't want to say, but I gather it's Wesley Snipes, since it was mentioned above that she's that afraid of him to increase security on her set.

      I don't know if you heard this story before but it's true. A dear friend told me Wesley was having sex with a crack/heroin addict hooker who turned tricks on the street for a brutal pimp. He had so much sex with her she got pregnant, she had other men but Wesley was called in for a paternity test after she had the baby, it wasn't his but why on earth would he go raw with a woman who's a hooker and a drug addict, intravenous drug addict.

      I know years ago, one of Wesley's Asian girlfriends gave him a party and lost track of him. He was coked down, I heard she found him downstairs with a man, she ran upstairs crying and ended the party.

        Wow, maybe all of that could have been avoided if she had eaten her fortune cookie first. Wasn't Snipes in Ebony a couple of years ago talking about he only dates non-black b/c black women don't know how to treat men. As an example, I think he said that his gf had no problem serving him and his boys hors d'oeuvres while they watch sports, but a black woman would have a problem with it. I guess he does more with his boys than the gf thought. *playing Cater 2 U*

    Actor Wesley Snipes crashes motorcycle after police chase

    Wesley Snipes was thrown from his motorcycle but not seriously injured after a trooper for the Highway Patrol in Florida said the actor led him on a 120-mph chase.

    Snipes, who stars in such films as Demolition Man, Sugar Hill, and Rising Sun, was riding his motorcycle in Jupiter, FL, when he allegedly sped by the trooper and led him on a 30-mile chase that ended when Snipes lost control of his motorcycle as he tried to exit a highway offramp. Snipes, who reportedly drove 30 miles in 14 minutes, was ordered to pay a fine and perform 80 hours of community service.

    The judge did not order the action movie star to take the driving lessons usually given after a speeding violation, saying, "Anybody that can drive as fast as you, I'm not sure needs defensive driving school."

A lot of those guys who attend the Love Center up here are gay and these are some of the same guys me and my partner see out at that gay pickup spot Aquatic Park in Berkeley, having sex in the bushes or in the back seats of cars and vans. Sex directors even recruit guys from this spot.

      We were called out on a disturbance, loud party. We got there, the host was a Hawkins relative. All the men had on men clothes and women pumps, some of those guys were wearing lipstick and eyeliner. Bizarre and freaky.

      Treymayne is into the ladies, I've seen younger women around her, might be innocent, might not be.

      He says he is cured because, as you know, wants to lure others to his domain by claiming that lie. I know someone that told me years ago about the gospel music circuit, when I was somewhat naive. We were warned in our church to not really to associate with these people and now we know why. They are using their star church status to prey on unsuspecting people.

      Now I'm finding out why some of these people, who spoke out against some of things that they have become, are not speaking on these issues now. And if they are, they are just frontin for the cameras to lure others. Just look at TBN and they twist scriptures up so much just for their own selfish gains. I thought it was just about money, but finding it's alot more.

While in New Orleans for the Essence Festival, my daughter and I stopped into Harold Clarkes's shop and we were stunned and amazed at all the beautiful garments he had on display. Beautiful couture gowns, not like anything you've seen before. Very tasteful and elegant. His wife mentioned that they were trying to open a store in the PG county area along the new harbor area there. As of today I haven't seen or heard anything else, but I did mention to her that with the inaugaration coming up that they were sure to get plenty of business. I only wish I could afford to buy a garment from such a talented and original designer.

          Lit, when I first got the BBerry Pearl I thought it wasn't my friend, but after working with it for a few days I fell in love! The Storm, thats on Verizon right? I'm on Tmobile - weighing the options between the Bold and the G1. I think one of the reasons I'm more inclined to stay with Blackberry is because I can update my PIN and keep the same info from one phone to the next. Cant do that if I switch to the G1. Oh, and the scanner is cool (I guess). I was flipping channels one night and came across Jimmy Kimmel Live - they were doing a demonstration with the scanner feature. Thats not necessary in my profession, so I cant see where/why it would be useful to me. And yes, technology is getting scary. Youve heard about the chips implanted under the skin @ the wrist right?

              Girl I love the 2 letters per button! So much easier, and I love the way it prompts my words. From my understanding the scanner is much easier for those who do bookkeeping and such, then again I guess it would help on comparison shopping as well. I'm not doing anymore shopping for a while - need to save for the Inauguration and the MCAT.

      Morning Lit and PR fam.I got the G1 on the 21st last month. It's a really cool phone.

      1.I downloaded imeem mobile into my phone for my music. You can also get music from amazonmp3(like the Apple store). I don't know how to sync it up with a computer.

      2. I don't run with my phone, but I'm sure that you can find the accessories on other websites since it's as big as the ipod touch.

      3. Yes you can post on PR from G1.

      4. It looks heavy but it doesn't feel heavy. It also has a scroll ball in addition to the QWERTY keyboard and touch screen.

      5. I love the fact that I can access the net since I don't own a computer. I also like the music (don't own an ipod either).I hate the fact that it accidentally dials ppl(still trying to figure that one out). If you stay on it to long(like me) it shuts down or freezes. It drops calls too but it might also be the signal.

      I'm still getting used to the phone but it's A LOT better than what I had before.

      Morning Family! Lit, I don't know much about the G1, but depending on where you travel I don't think T-Mobile's service is the greatest. I know people who worked for them and most of the call center complaints were about dropped calls and/or issues with browsing from the Sidekicks. I had T-Mobile for exactly 1 week and the service was not great in my area.

      I've seen commercials for Sprint and it looks like they've added some new touchscreen phones. Also, I currently have Verizon and have never had an issue with their service. Their LG Voyager and LG Dare are both touchscreens with html browsing, cameras, and mp3 players. You can download music from your computer and the have armband sleeves with straps for the phones. I plan to get the Dare when my New every Two comes up in a few months. The Voyager has a regular qwerty board, which my sister loves, and the Dare has a virtual qwerty.

      Hope that helps!

      BTW, Nestle Wesley is the first heathen I thought of when reading this BI. I remember the convo about him getting with the fellas when he's high. I never found him attractive or sexy. I guess I was too young to appreciate his appeal in the New Jack City, Mo Betta Blues days. He has always looked like an orangutan to me. Now I don't feel guilty thinking that way since he acts like one too!

I had their service for 7 years and they are still showing me their azzes after being gone for 18 months! I haven't had issues with Verizon that weren't immediately resolved, but I've only had them for less than 18 months.

          Hey, L/L, I highly recommend the BB bold (and not because I work for AT&T - hursh Sin ). It's about time RIM came out with a 3G Blackberry. It has a microchip holder so that you can play your mp3s, touchscreen, and it can be used as a wireless modem for your computer. You can also download the Opera browser to view web pages in full! I haven't heard any complaints regarding dropped calls, but I will let you know. a RIM rep will be here all week, so I'll pick his brain for you and the rest of the fam.

    Hello everyone! How are you guys doing on this sunny but cold Monday morning? Hello Lit, Although I am with sprint I have been contemplating going to T-Mobile and I saw the G1 phone on the T-mobile website and its to die for! While I wasnt able to access alot of info about it either, (staying with Sprint) I do know as far as music capabilities that it comes with integrated MP3 functionality, where you can surf through the site's music store and do one-click ordering. Its music player also gives you options to search for related material on services like Google and YouTube while a song is playing. The phone has Google Talk built into the platform and also supports AOL, Yahoo Messenger, and Windows Live Messenger. So im thinking you can access PR on it. Direct YouTube searching is included in many menus and programs as well. Oh and I ran across this little neat addition, the phone comes with this thing called ShopSavvy, and its a program that turns your phone into a barcode scanner with able to read UPC codes and deliver instant price comparisons; cab4me, a program that finds and secures you a cab based on your current location. Now aint that the ish?! I also think that its the same size and weight as the Iphone because it was paired up next to a picture of an Ihone and they had the same measurements. Just some little tidbits I picked up. Sorry i couldnt be alot of help but I hope that adds a little info.

    BI: I will have to go with the popular guess and say Wesley "gutter snake" Snipes. I did remember reading about him in the past how he likes cruising down the highway on his motorcycle. I also remeber Halle's abuse being blamed on Christopher Williams by the media but he says it was Wesley who did it. I also think it takes a sick minded individual to actually set aside money to pay for future lawsuits because you have intentions of beating a woman down to a pulp! Thats sick! I could never get a thrill by watching someone helplessly get viciously attacked. I would of had to give Wesley the old Al Green effect once his a** went to sleep and sat there singing Tina Turner's "Burn Baby Burn!"

They even have secret doors they use to abduct the girls, and they have keys to come into the girls rooms...It's so scary!!!

        Hey Detroit Cop, Thanks for posting about that...So true!! I made my sons take their photos down from off Myspace and off of YOU TUBE...I don't even post my photos online anymore. I had a negative experience when I did...I could not believe what happened.I don't want to get into detail about what happened, but I will NEVER place my photo online again.

          DC, Jinx, speak on it. We cracked a case of a old dude online, pops looked like colonel sanders, had a site disguised as a toy christmas site, u enter, all kind of sick shit popped up involving kids. Parents, be careful pasting photos of your little ones online because some of the rings take pre-sales, this means, they plan to abduct kids to fill these orders. It gets dark early and I still see parents walking in front of their kids. Maybe this site is legit but it's a chance I wouldn't take.

I'm talking little kids, SMH...I was in Hyde Park one morning and I saw this little girl about 6 OR 7 waiting on the bus...I was dropping some videos off at BlockButsre. I felt so sorry for this baby. I sat in my car until she was on the bus, so that I could watch out for her....I marveled at how her family could be OK with her being so small and alone ???

              I was with some college buddies in Georgetown this past weekend, when I was leaving their complex, a kid popped out on a scooter type of toy, it was late and that kid looked like he was 5 or 6, I was like, where is this boy's parent, it's night and do they care for his safety?

                Lobbyist, I don't know what to make of these folks, SMH. It makes me so angry to see children alone and unattended. There are truly some trifling and unconcerned parents out there. With child abuse, abductions,pedophilia, and child-sex rings on an International level on the rise...You would think they would be more protective. I am fiercely protective of mine, my neices & nephews, and any child in particular.When we go places, I don't let them out of my site. We go to the bathroom together...I don't care who's looking at me crazy either, their safety is my main concern and priority!

                    I'm doing well, enjoying the new job and staying busy. I finally figured out how to balance my PR addiction and still maintain my social life. My guy and my family were complaining about hearing me type while I was on the phone. Now I just lurk when they interrupt my PR time. Also, when I'm home or have company the laptop stays off.

    @ Msrycka,
    Alyssa is a lil cutie! Looks like a little piece of heaven like my daughter. But please do take heed to what Detroit Cop posted. That is why I do not post pictures of my daughter up anywhere online. I understand that your baby is entering a contest as thousands of others have posted pics of their little ones as well, but the world is a dangerous place and unfortunately the internet has provided alot of opportunities to pedophiles, rapists and other dangerous people to prey on the helpless and innocent. We do have to keep those things in mind. Good luck with the contest though!

          You don't know who really owns that site and what their intentions are. We can chalk it up as an honest mistake but your wording makes it look like you are pimping your child out for money, I know this isn't what you're doing but you can't be naive in this day and age. Not trying to judge you, just be careful.

              I also hate to see very young children walking to school by themselves. I understand the parents are probably getting to work but can't arrangements be made so that the child can walk with other children? There have been a few times I've wanted to pull over and offer a ride but one, I don't want anyone to think I'm trying to abduct the child and two, I wouldn't want the child to get in the habit of accepting rides from strangers.

        Hi MsRycka, I can tell you what to do...The decision is yours...However, we're all just concerned and we KNOW what's out here on the internet, in regard to children. I understand that you may need the money...BUT, your child's safety should be your primary focus, and I'm not saying it isn't...Just giving you something to think about...Here's some possible solutions for the money...

        1. Can you borrow it from someone in your family?

        2. Lit gave you some good suggestions too...What's your talents ? Do you write ? Can you cook ? Bake ?

        3. Maybe you can take part-time job OR pick up some extra hours at work...

        4. Play the Lottery..I know it's a game of chance...But, some do win...I know 2 people personally that won BIG!!! One won $125,000 and the other one one in the millions, and her and the family now lives off that... Just some suggestions...

        Wow just wow at thinking you are going to win 5k based on a baby contest that is potentially dangerous for your child. Whatever debts you owe can be settled the old fashioned way, by contacting your creditors and making a payment plan. Even if you are facing starvation, eviction, and the other disasters that affect daily survival there are alternatives such as State Assistance, Emergency Assistance, Shelters and the such. If you are needing money to pay credit cards, medical for past treatment or a car, those payments can definitely be settled little by little. Even if you lose a car you can always get around as others do without one. I just can not imagine what need can be so dire that this is your only alternative.

                    Happy monday SheKnows! I'm doing well, just working and trying to keep an active social life! I've noticed a few loose screws that post on the board...if they show their crazy here, what's to keep them from doing it in person?

            Hey Bullrida! I'm glad to hear your MIL is doing better. My grandmother had a stroke a few years back and we were petrified. She didn't have issues with her speech, just muscle weakness in her hands and legs. Fortunately she's made a full recovery with the help of physical therapy. She also started doing crosswords and word finds to sharpen her mind. She loves them and we buy her jumbo books all the time.

              Hey sin7 **waving** thank you very much, I am glad she's doing better too, and to know that she still has her sense of humor is also a plus. She also has to do physical and speech therapy. The rehab place thinks that she may be good to go within 30 days. I will keep the crosswords book thing in mind, once she has the usuage of her hands again.

              I so much appreciate the love, and positive vibes, I could really use it with all the unnecessary work they have me doing.

              Much love to you and your family!! ((Hugs))

                You're welcome Bullrida! At least the scary part is over and now you can work on helping her to heal. They initially wanted to send my grandmother to a rehab place for 30 days, but the family set up a schedule where we could take shifts caring for her in the house. She did physical therapy at her day program and was back in shape fairly quickly. She still has setbacks form time to time, but she's much better than before.

                I will keep you and your family in my prayers! Also sending positive energy and love to your boss so he/she can lay off your work load!

    I was reading above, some of you were talking about hair... I'll tell you this: invest in a good quality ceramic or tourmaline flat iron. I now do my hair myself and it lasts for a very long time... It really does save you from trips to the salon. It's important though not to flat iron your hair too much though... and make sure you use HEAT PROTECTOR! A heat protector serum works best.

I think they're waiting for William to crack and implicate Julia or for Julia to seriously implicate herself. Something is not right here and I smell a rat. Maybe William has already given them info and they're just not releasing details to the public?

        I know DNA may take a minute to process, but shouldn't fingerprints be a priority when finding a weapon - or - maybe the are just being low key with the information until they put it all together. "May have seen him with a gun" - did the witness see him or not - it shouldn't take another 2 weeks for the witness to know what he saw. P
        "Probably a 45" - if the witness was close enough to see what kind of gun - he was close enough to know whether he had it or not - why wasn't the witness at hearing today. I would like for them to get the person who did this without a doubt - but are they just holding the guy until they can circumstantially connect him?

It's not like he was not familiar with the system or the process - even if he didn't have a lawyer he had been tried and convicted before so he kind of knew what he was facing. I would have been the lead story on all the channels because I would have defended myself - even if I was guilty - especially if I was guilty. I would have taken the time I was locked up to give everybody a raincheck on the braiding and checked out what my rights were in the library - he must be able to read because he had a myspace page - but then again - maybe he just read the pictures.

                  Off the chain is not the word. Recently my friends and I were discussing what possibly is happening and we questioned if there was a such thing as a "gangbanger" now a days. These days and times it's more about money rather than if you roll under the 5 or 6 star. Yet, our neighborhoods are in complete turmoil. These new millennium kids and there mommas who are 35 raising an additional 5 kids (my god sister for one) are the problem on top of drugs and the lack there of in the communities i.e. jobs, respect,adequate housing and education. It's a shame all you can do is pray EVERYDAY!

                    Part of what's going on is related to the dislocation of element from some of Chicago's worse neighborhoods due to gentrification. The element is moving into other city neighborhoods and into the north, west and south suburbs, as well as northwest Indiana, and as far away as Rockford, IL. A lot of these folk are fighting for new turf and "respect" in unfamiliar territory. Combine some of the dislocated folk with some of the pre-existing off-the-chain natives and you've got a toxic mix. Lots of innocents suffer due to this foolishness.

                      True dat - hadn't thought about it that way - with the disbursement came spikes in crime in certain areas. But what is the solution? Right now nothing seems to be working and the police are getting a raw deal on some levels. People complain about the crime in neighborhoods - but then there is the "no snitch" mentality in these same neighborhoods which henders alot of investigations and stalls the capture of many criminals who if arrested when a crime is committed wouldn't be left on the street to commit more crime. It can't just be left up to the police. Right now I just want to go to everybody's house who has that "we call police" sign in the window and find out when was the last time they actually "called".

                        Wow CTR, I want to know the answer to that question too. I don't know, I think there has to be a seismic shift in attitude. (How to achieve that seismic shift, I don't know.) I think to a certain extent, people speak with a forked-tongue, in one breath people say they want improved communities, but when some steps are taken in that direction, then they complain about how it impacts them personally or they get nostalgic for the way things once were. Something has to give. Also, I think there's this pervasive fallacy that one can only live "nicely" and more safely in other neighborhoods. If you have too many with that attitude in any particular community, then you don't have enough people taking communal ownership to maintain a clean and safe community or to take a community back from decline. I think in seeking a real solution, some of the answers are really simple, and some are really complex. Just some of my thougths on the matter, since I know that I don't have the answer. Like I always say, I wish I had a panacea. What are your thoughts?

        I still say julia is not smart enough to pull this off , if she had something to do with it , they ( police) should know it , if she hired crack addicts , give them some crack and they will talk .

        there are so many angles to this . a lot of layers i feel , also i feel the dead hold a lot of info .
        I think julia and jennifer know something, more than they are saying . That lifestyle they ( the family ) were living just did not happen recently .

        Jennifer was lucky she was able to get out .... otherwise this would just be another black family murdered.

Possibly they want to fix it , if what black playmate saids is true about hwood backing away from jhud because of this . Then best to close it . Her family portrayed by media was a pr spin . But it's funny people were always more sympathetic to her than fantasia , due to her presentation...

            As much as we all say we like to look at the brains or the heart of the problem , the first thing we see is self presentation .

            and one more thing if jhuds friend in real life is really that guy talking about bey , i have to give the side eye. Who really cares about bey at a time like this , this is not a popularity contest. So i feel strange about that , what is really real and what is fiction ?

            I am glad u are better i really wanted your opp on this case, so happy to see you writing about it !!!thanks

    Hi Lit.
    No one chimed in so i thought I'd give my two cents:
    I have the G1 and I really like it. It is a tad bigger than the iphone but nothing to be concerned about. The keyboard is a great feature. Yes you can post to PR on it and it syncs with your computer like an ipod or digital camera etc.
    I love the phone...only drawback I see is sometimes the battery life (when using the 3G network) but if you are not using the internet feature then you have the option to use 2G networks which save more life.
    Hope this helps.

My friend said her little sister got knocked up by a hood guy because he was the most feared baller in the hood and she wanted his child. She's 17, he's in prison now. The parenting his horrible in this day and age. Parents aren't teaching kids right from wrong and their not raising their kids worth a damn. We have a generation of baby mama's and ballers headed for death or prison. I hope Obama's election will enlighten people to change their negative lifestyles. A friend told me that people who speak english as an second language are doing better than blacks in this country. If a black man can become president, you can be anything you want, no more excuses, apply yourself.

                  Remember the conversation we had some time ago about "real mothers". Most of the mothers now are grandmothers before they can let the 30's get going good - they pass down to their children the mentality - who in turn pass it down to their children - 3 generations of bling leading the blind. GS could not be any more right - if a BLACK man can overcome the odds it should be like handwriting on the wall - now is the time to let go of coulda - woulda - shoulda. The "man's" hand of oppression has lost its grip on our throats - it's up to us whether we allow him to regroup and come back stronger - or break it off at the wrist.

                    Chi, I have been talking to my mom about this for years! She was married young and had my sister when she was still a teenager. My sister was also a teen parent, so mom was a grandmother by her mid 30s. We come from a pretty tight knit family and everyone was supportive of each other.

                    I think the issue with most people today is not their age, but their attitudes. My grandmother was a young widow and raised my mother to be better than she ever was. My mom divorced when I was young and always encouraged my sister and I to do better than her. My sister was young, but worked hard and became very successful in her field and has provided her child with an exceptional education.

                    I thank my mom every day for being the type of mother who sacrificed so I could be successful, happy, and loved. She showed my sister and myself how to be exceptional parents. Not everyone has that luxury. Too many folks are too busy worrying about who they will be laid up with to consider their children's health and well being. Something has to give so that the next generation can do better.

I guess what I was trying to say is that you can't pass on what you don't know and you have generations passing down absolutely nothing to their followers - young does not always equate to being foolish with life choices - but what if it were never drilled into you that you had choices?

          There's a good book, "Black and Single" about this very topic by Larry E. Davis, Dean of the School of Social Work at the University of Pittsburgh and Donald M. Henderson Professor and Director of the Center on Race and Social Problems. It's called "Black and Single". I was impressed that it wasn't your typical self-help book, but was based on actual research and case studies by a reputable scholar. One thing I learned was that Black folks are the ethnic/racial group that continuously has the highest number of single people. It's a good and interesting read.

One told me straight up, "I aint puttin no child support on him", even though she struggles to pay for daycare. The other one, who just happens to be babymama #3, told me that since he didn't have a job, what was the purpose of filing the papers for child support. I told her that once he got those papers, his ass would know to either get a job or go to jail. That chile told me "well if he in jail, how he gonna be able to pay, it's just a waste of time". I was DONE after that, because I nearly crashed into the back of another car after she told me that mess!

There will always be some woman more than happy to take him in! I know this guy who is married with kids, seperated from his wife with no intent to ever get a LEGAL divorce. Majority of his money goes to child support b/c he has so many children. Drinks heavily on a daily basis. Has questionable hygeine....I could go on and on. This man STAYS with a girlfriend and girls on the side...it's absurd! Beautiful, eductaed, intelligent black women seem to flock to this man for the simple reason that he is a man and expressed some sort of interest. Ladies we need to step it up and stop accepting losers into our lives. These deadbeats do notheing but drag you down in the longrun.

    Barry Bonds was at all of these parties but his fixer kept him off the list. Read: The hottest after-hours party in Hollywood isn’t at a club - it’s at Eddie Murphy’s Beverly Hills bachelor pad. One source said, “Eddie has taken the after-hours party up a notch since he’s been single. Murphy and Johnny Gil [who lives in the sprawling manse's guesthouse] have been holding bowling tournaments in the house’s bowling alley almost every weekend. He even hired DJ Ruckus to spin one party.” Guests have included Busta Rhymes, Bobby Brown and Dallas Austin. “When Bobby was there, they messed with him and kept playing songs by [Brown's ex] Whitney Houston.”

      Bobby Brown is low classed but he gets it from his father who fathered him late, when Bobby was in his 20's, his dad was in his 60's. When Bobby was hot with his solo album, his dad tried to take advantage of his son's fame, lured a twentysomething Australian girl and tried to rape her, it was hushed up quick.

      When I read this, I immediately thought it was interesting how no women were mentioned; how Johnny Gil lives in the guesthouse; and how PR & the family have schooled me in reading between the lines...

      I second that emotion. Nicole Murphy looks like a tranny if I ever did see one. If it weren't for the children, I'd guess that Nicole was born NICHOLAS!!! And Shalimar ended up dead because he was about to spill the beans on Eddie and let the depth of their relationship be known.

              I believe it was the entertainment show Extra or the other one, that had pics of Nicole and Eddie when she was preggers with her last baby. It may have been a faux stomach, but she looked preggers to me. I believe an article of Sister 2 Sister magazine had pics as well.

Quick reminder (again) Principessa is scheduled for surgery today, and NolaBella's Moms is scheduled for Wednesday. OrangeKat might also be in the hospital today as well.

      For the B.I., I believe we have overlooked somebody that fits this M.O. Think about somebody that gave the indication that he was longer with his current girlfriend on t.v. This person could also be in the music industry, or maybe a comedian.....anybody who hit H'wood hard and fell off into some unsavory characters. I believe that this person has been mentioned by some insiders in the some past B.I sidebars. Just my opinion.

                      I sleep in a waterbed and I turned the heat up and I did not want to leave that bed this morning.

                      As long as the weather is nice for my b-day I'm good, but I know that might be asking a bit much.

        Like Gladys sung, I got to go, I got to go, on the midnight train to a gay club. Bye folks.....

        PS: Don't know if Sable told this story, I was in makeup with Missy Elliott and this queen had just finished her, she looked in the mirror and said, YOU DONE FUCKED ME UP! That queen put his hands on his hips and said, baby, I didn't fuck you up, genetics did.

        I was too through.

            Somehow Missy thinks because she lost weight she's now cute. Ummm...NO! She killed me when she started making fat jokes after she got smaller...does she not own a mirror or are they all covered with coke? I'd rather be fat than look like a horse any day. She should be sitting in an orthodontist's chair instead of a makeup chair!

You know Missy was wrong for that...it's not my fault the chick is sooo coked out that she doesn't recognize her own fugly. Did you see her in the Jazmine Sullivan video looking like a d@mn muppet?

      Folks need to read the bible ie Romans:

      "For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence [sic] of their error which was meet."

    Hey Panachigans/Staff. Just stopping in for a little bit...and venting I suppose. Having an issue with my landlord, wondering if anyone has any advise. I currently have been renting a 5br house for almost a year now, and I'm responsible for all utitlities. My water bill averages about 75-80 bucks every 3 months, Well early last month I recieve a phone call from the management company that works for my
    landlord, stating that they need to send a plumber to my residence to checkin for any leaks or plumbing issues, because the water company contacted about an astronimcal amount of water that has been used in the most recent billing cycle, totaling $1400.00. I"m like wow, sure send them over. So the plumber comes, and finds out that a toilet in the rear of my house had been running. Now this is not my main bathroom, and myself nor my family really use this bathroom, so I didnt notice honestly that the toilet had been running. We have the main bathroom which everyone uses. This is more like a guest toilet, and I do not have guests, because I'm never home. ANyway the plumber had to fix something inside the toilet, apparently the chain that is connected to the flusher handle had gotten loose and he needed to tighten it. He fixed it and that was that. Well to my surprise I recieve a bill in the mail for the amount of the water bill. I sent a letter to my landlor to formally dispute the bill, because according to my lease the landlor is responsible for all maintenence issues. Well to my surpise, I go to get my mail this afternoon, and there is a notice to appear in court from charges the landlord filed against me through his agent at the management company for eviction and possession of real property. I'm like WTH? First off that is embarraing, because I've paid my rent, and I'm disputing this water charge. And secondly I've never been evicted for anything in life. I'm just wondering if anyone knows about the process for something like this? Should I seek an attorney? I'm just wondering because since I've went back to school my funds are extremely limited. I'm just very upset about this whole situation. Anyways, sorry fro interrupting the natural flow of things, I just needed to get this off my chest. I've been stressed with my classes, and this is just one more thing added to burden me. *sighs*

      Ms.P, a friend of mine just went through the same thing with the water and gas company. 1)She had been receiving water bills and paying them, accordingly. Problem was the water company installed the meter backwards. Long investigation, she wasn't respondsible for the water before she moved in. Made long term arrangements. 2)The gas. She also was responsible for all utilities and the landlord/management company was responsible for all repairs. She received and astronomical bill for $2500. The most gas being used in JUNE. June was more than all the other 11 months together. In any case, since the landlord was responsible for the repairs, he was responsible for the bill. As far as the eviction, the only thing I can tell you is 1) I AM NOT AN ATTORNEY; 2)Since you are financially challenged, you may want to contact LEGAL AID to see if you would qualify for representation; 3)Do you have a contract, lease, lease-to-purchase? 4)If you do, has it expired. You may be on a month-to-month now; 5)At least a 30 day notice; 6)What was the reason given for the eviction? Have you had any complaints waged against you or have you waged any against your landlord for other matters? Any problems getting other things fixed?; 7)Write down everything you can remember; 8) See number 2. Sorry for the long post but, I tell you it was one rollercoaster ride trying to help her navigate through all the mess.
      Wishing you the best!

        thanks alot, and I called up to the court, it's a hearing at this point where I can defend myself and state why I dont feel I'm responsible. In my case...I've paid all my rent, and other utilties...I'm just disputing this ridiculous amount of money for water...when even the water company alerted the management company to the fcat that NO ONE in a HOME uses that much water...and it did turn out to be a plumbing problem. So I guess I'll see what'll happen in court. I'm just upset that I have to go through this...I've never had anything like this happen to me before. But I believe because I live in the city in a predominately Black Area...this management is assuming I'm some idiot...when I"m not number one...and I will not just accept the bill and pay for it....but thanks for your advise. The legal aid in my area won't be open again until Wed, because of the holiday, so I'll call then.

      Darling, 4 foot Kat William's arms are not long enough to hit anything. He's all mouth and I don't recall him ever being married. I think he's suspect as far as his sexuality but other than that, that whole pimp persona is just what it is, a persona.....his dark side is that he can't seem to keep himself out of jail.

Earlier this year his cousin from Dayton, had a warrant out for attempted murder, which left a teenager paralyzed. The Marshals "got word" that he was at Katt's house in Cali. They spotted his car and he was arrested. Well, everyone knows that Katt was already on paper for the whole "guns in your luggage" thing in the airport. *Channeling Snoop, Dallas Austin, Whitney Houston* Katt promptly stated he didn't know the man was even in his house and he wasn't his relative (even though they hung out and he traveled with Katt).

    Wow, I didn’t think I would get so many comments on my child picture. Ok, let start from the beginning,

    Detroit Cop, I really appreciate your genuine concern, I know that there are plenty of sick people out to hurt kids…so thanks for sharing your infor about the dangerous of the internet.
    To Jinx, I don’t need your sarcastic comment, u can miss with me with the attitude, I wasn’t advertising, I was simply requesting help to win a contest, and yes I know that there are crazy people on the internet, I just didn’t think WETV (women television) would be one of those…now if I had said myspace or something we have never heard of then I would be concern so…. If spy master thought it was a problem (forgive me spymaster if it is) then they would have sent me a warning…. ***still looking for it…nowhere to be found****
    Black Mai Rose- thanks for wishing me good luck on the contest and I have considered all that.
    To Lit : let see, I’m really not trying to mean or smart mouth when I say this ….ummm…..first, what do you mean do I know how it sounded????? I think you did misunderstand. What wrong with trying to win extra money….i don’t see how me putting My, yes my child on a nationwide site in endangering her life….you make it sound like I said I left her in a crack house to win money or sent her to live With Michael Jackson…and I like I told Jixn, if I though t was a problem with spymaster then I would have gotten a warning, still looking for it….people come on here all the time promoting things they saw on tv, book they have read, clothing stores, etc…so please don’t act like I’m the only one….didn’t know about Ebony but if I did please believe I would enter, can’t weave, can’t bake and despite have my college degree (my asso in liberal arts and science) 5 year in clerical work, not to mention I been working in social service for the last three, no one will hire me….beside, after working 8 hr , the then to go home and “work”, while trying to fit in time to student so I can my BA…I’m tired so please don’t come on here trying to judge me about my choice.

    Lobbyist: Her father also though it was a good idea and give his full support (both our families and coworker have been voting like crazy to help us win)…and yes he takes very good care of her, the best father next to my dad, but we’re not balling and can only do the best we can….and this thing about “pimping my child”, I think you and a few other are reading to much into this….if I had put her in a Sear or kohl’s catalog would I still be pimping her out? Or if my church wanted to add her to wall of the children nursery, would I still be pimping her out? or how about if her grandparent said, they wanted to start a business , and called it Alyssa Co, is that pimping out????

    Quagmire: you read it right the first time…..this isn’t rocket science, maybe I worded it wrong so that’s why you and everyone is concern, but it my child and I can do what I want whether you’re concern or not….u act as if there is physical harm being to her….i would never let that happen…hell, she very shelter

    Sheknows: Thank u also, you seem like the only one who wasn’t attacking me (if other weren’t, it sure felt that way)….like I said to Quagmire, I may have worded it wrong (not an English major) but I would never do anything that would endanger my child if I thought for one second this wasn’t safe ( and not had the support of the other parent) the I would have never done it. Thanks for understand that it is my child and I can do what I want…like I told Lit, don’t have any real talent, can’t sing, can’t bake, don’t believe in playing the lottery, I can write but not enough to win a short story contest (although I would have tried) all I know is science so…..

    Dramatical: I know I may not win…there are so many cute kids in the contest, and no not facing eviction, starvation, or any other thing. It would just be nice to stop living pay check to pay check…however, I don’t see this as being a harmful website but what is a harmful website…for all we know there are “dangerous people” right on here talking and making joke with the rest of us…so whatever….i wonder if PR had a contest of the cutest kids would everyone still be preaching the same thing


    To all who are really concern and just looking out for my best interest then I say thank you and I hear everything you guys are saying. However, I love my little and I think she is the cutest and I’m not going to live in fear that someone is going to “get her” (hell she never leaves my sight so idk how they can get her….lol) b/c I put her on the internet. If that’s case, then a lot of should live in fear
    Also kinda sad to know that as long as I been on the site u guys would think I would harm my child (or any child) or make me out to be some type of bad mother ( some PR). But then I got to remember that I’m not anybody “real friend” on here…nobody knows me personal, and I really should care less about what you guys think…so what ever and see you on the next blind item

      @ Msrycka, I understand your points. I did not mean to preach and I am glad that you are not facing those rough life patches I mentioned. I understand working/living paycheck to paycheck. Posters were sharing how something that seems or was intended to be innocent can be used by people who are not on the up and up. For me I look at things in a new light because I would never consider some things as evil but when people who work in law enforcement share their info, I take heed because a lot of parents are now looking back and saying "I wish I had known". Good Luck and please do not be offended by the sound advice that a lot of experienced people have given.

      A personal note, I worked with a guy who was claiming to be a photographer and a lot of young women in my office fell for that, next thing you know he has put their faces on naked bodies posted all over the web.

So yes I get everyone's point. This made me rethink trying something like this in the future...it's horrible that people do these sick things...but that's the world we live in....something innoncent can totally be changed into something peverted, and that is not worth any amount of money when the babies are at stake.

        Hello Ms P-Dyse. I have purposely avoided these threads all day because I didn't think logic would do any good in this situation. I will have to respectfully disagree with you. WeTV may be a reputable site, but they don't screen folks who visit the site. That means every Tom, Dick, and Harry can not only look at her child's pictures, but also see her FULL name! That's dangerous as several professionals have already stated today.

        It's one thing to be a proud mother and show your child off to people in your close circle of family, friends, and coworkers. It's quite another to give personal information about your child and spread her pictures across the internet. It has been said on here several times that PR gets international traffic...how many hundreds of thousands of people now know this child's name and what she looks like? Unfortunately we don't live in a world where everyone has the best of intentions, so you have to be especially careful with the information you divulge about your children/family.

        **steps off my soapbox**

        Why would you want to subject your child to that?
        Do your CHILD a favor and keep him/her out of the spotlight. Why do you need affirmation from others that your child is cute or attractive?

        I'm surprised you came like that! Actually I'm a bit disappointed. Most of your posts are on point and funny, but this post came off as judgemental. While I may not agree with this mother's actions concerning her child, I am not one to judge, none of us are. There's a difference with offering sage advice and attacking the character of this woman. It's up to her to heed this advice (which I suppose she's already done) I like you a lot and I give shouts to you and others because you are one of my favorite posters, but in this case you are dead wrong.

          HI, I’ve been lurking for over a year now and i really like this site and when I saw the thread yesterday,i had to come out, I thought is a lot of judgment going on that was some what rude and hurtful. I agree with the privacy issues that where stated, but I believe it could have been handled a LOT better than how it was handled by some posters. Instead of basically calling her an unfit parent or pimping her kid out, more people should have given her more positive alternatives (like some of the poster did and I congratulate the ones that did.) Personally I feel like there are draw back to everything you do on the World Wide Web, so you are never 100% safe. So for msrycka, I pray that god gives you understand and that he guides you in the direction that he wants you to go...also that you financial situation becomes better for you and your child.

Johnny is the REAL Mrs Murphy. Nicole was a just a long suffering beard who popped those babies to have enough leverage $ wise to be comfortable for when she
    Was ready to leave
    She was far from stupid. That's why she & Mel B had lunch & Nicole met the baby. Trust they had a good chuckle on him!

    Hi, all! I scrolled down pretty fast. I think it's Mickey Rourke. Did anyone mention him? He did a interview in Village Voice a month back and he just completed a couple of projects. He looks the type. Not sure of his past but he is definitely busted as far as looks go.

    Well guess who's front page info about Eddie/Johnnie's parties made DeeDee's list on Doug & DeeDee today? Yes Myra's front page tidbit was read on the air and then Doug decided to call Johnny live to get 'the truth from the source'.

    His response re: living on the estate "if Eddie's estate is large enough to include his condo which is about 10 miles away, that's a hellva estate". He said someone emailed him a copy of the info. He tried to laugh his way through the call but it didn't work. He admitted that they have the parties on and "cracking" and he wondered how all of this info gets out. I wish it was on the net so I could post a link but it's not there yet. Once you here it, you'll understand why Myra is the business. He couldn't lie his way out of this one.

    Oh and the kicker, he said he and Eddie are in a race to see who finds a wife first. I guess the Murphy estate must be in Africa cause that man is iving in the land of "denial" And I bet he reads the site and no one mailed him anything.

IMHO Jesse Jackson Jr. is a long shot (note to JJ Jr.: If you think that phony hug fest you initiated among warring IL Dems at the Democratic convention earned you a few points, you're wrong, it didn't.), but weirder things have happened. And you're right, things will be on and popping. The jockeying and the making of strange bedfellows has begun. Let the games begin.

She must be scraping the bottom of the barrel. After his "so called" outing of many celebrities to his awful blog to his slump into drug addiction, it was told to me that he was sort of "black listed" in the world of hollywood publicists...I know that he once had some business dealings with a certain armenian girl (who shall go unnamed)--they all of a sudden hated each other--then became friends again..however, Jonathon working for A.

    On another note I'm still on cloud nine for a multitude of reasons #1 being our new President and first family(can't you just see the official family portrait,can't wait).#2.Went and saw Noah's Arc movie this weekend by myself(noone would go with me,they can't relate to my obsession with this show).And once again I didn't realize or just didn't give it any thought that I'd be the only straight woman in the theater(not that I truly cared).The movie is awesome

    Miss Litigating, we have to talk darling. I just got off the phone with Monroe and told him my source told me about a hour ago that you are sporting a leather bag with the presidential seal and air force one logo. We know this is not a knock off darling because you can't knock off presidential gear, I believe it's federal, we have to ask Jinx. Darling, may I ask, how did you acquire these not for sale, only political insider items? Monroe's mouth hit the floor when I informed him and I also let him know about the birthday card Obama autographed to you, whispering, Monroe acted jealous girl, and we know he's not into women, lol. Anyway, the only other time Monroe's mouth hung open was when Miss Sable danced him off the floor with her exquisite dance moves. Fess up darling!
