let me chime in:
Original Transcript:
DON IMUS, Radio Host: That’s some rough girls from Rutgers. Man, they got tattoos and…
BERNARD MCGUIRK, Radio Co-Host: Some hard-core hos.
DON IMUS: That’s some nappy-headed hos there, I’m going to tell you that now.
I was watching The Newshour with Jim Lehrer on Tuesday where I learned a few things in the past about Don Imus
REVEREND JESSE JACKSON, Civil Rights Activist:
They’ve made these kind of racist statements about Maya Angelou. They’ve made them referring to Venus and Serena Williams as the animals, they should be in “National Geographic.”
JEFFREY BROWN: In another often quoted incident, Imus is reported to have said of the NewsHour’s Gwen Ifill, when she worked at the New York Times in the 1990s, “Isn’t the Times wonderful? It lets the cleaning lady cover the White House.”
Imus today denied ever saying that.
Whatever, he did say “Nappy Headed Ho’s” though.
Funny thing that the studio where Imus tapes his show for MSNBC is in Secaucus. NJ which is about 9.7 mi (about 18 mins) from Rutgers University.
Nobody isnt saying too much about his co-host who introduced the “hos” when he said “hardcore hos”
I wonder if these dudes would have said that a little closer to Newark, like on Market Street….lol

A lot can happen in 2 weeks. I got a Tivo after a nearly successful failure of building my own PVR from an old computer , a tv capture card and some open source software.
It feels so good and do other things without being a slave to sit down and watch television at a particular time with all the commercials.
I even was able to catch the new Fantastic 4 cartoon, which at said time of braodcast I was sleeping.
I even have the unit hooked up to the web so if i think of something to record I can tell the tivo to do from my treo before getting on the subway or anywhere where I have access to the internet.
The Vice.Lounge free download “campaign” we started got us over 3,000 myspace friends and even MY myspace page got a little more friendly as well. All when didnt even need Internet marketing San Diego
I even plotted out the playlist for the podcast “Winter/Spring Collection” and this site (Me) got nominated for a Black Web Award the in Category of Best Personal Website by an Individual!
The awards celebrate African, African American and Caribbean excellence online in over 100 categories,and over 2,000 unique nominations from 24 countries.
To paraphrase one of my favorite rappers Murs, that means:
“I’m greater than your grandfathers’s father”
I hope they got the name spelled right by the time you all read this but still vote for me by clicking here:

Thank you for your support!!!!
Putting the finishing touches on our first music video for the song “Pillows” which has been getting much play online and also in Italy thank to RadioPellenera and features vocals from yours truly…lol
The video is actually a re-work of a scene where the instrumental of the song is actually used in the film “No Problema” directed by Rich Williams
Stay Tuned!

Nip/Tuck season 4 started last night and it looks to be a really good season with Larry Hagman and Sanaa Lathan as a married couple and Brooke Shields as a shrink.
While all this is happening in Miami, I wonder if there is a New Jersey cosmetic surgery practice that had similar stories???
One thing that makes it one of the best shows on tv is the music:
Here is a downloadable list of music in this season first episode “Cindy Plum”:
“Boogie Oogie Oogie” – A Taste of Honey – Christian and Sean operate on a couple in their 50’s, celebrate in upscale bar
“Love Is In The Air” – John Paul Young – Christian has ménage a trois, Sean tries to make love to Julia
“Notas” – Gotan Project – Christian has post-coitus argument with Riley and Jill White
“You Sexy Thing” – Hot Chocolate – Sean performs larynx surgery on Cindy Plumb
“Diferente” – Gotan Project – Christian performs a testicular implant procedure
“Tired of Being Alone” – Al Green – Christian has sex with his shrink, boys sign away the practice
Enjoy!
It’s also Fashion Week next week, I heard rumors of 2007 prom dresses being shown.
It can’t be as bad as a show I attended a few weeks ago where I got a sample spray of Clive Christian cologne.
The brand for men is called “1872″, and was given the royal seal from Queen Victoria….
It’s touted as the worlds most expensive cologne!
The perfume spray is $695, a 30ml bottle of your initials in white diamonds is $14,500 and there is a 500ml bottle that is set with a 5 carat diamond.
(they only make 10 of those )and it will cost you $215,000.
Only one problem, it doesnt SMELL that great at all.
Bottomline, If I was strolling around in the hills somewhere in Europe it might fit me.
It’s like olde english…just sweeter.
I will stick to my Egyptian musk, AXE or Carolina Herrera for when I really want to get jiggy.
