Obamalicious

A friend suggested that i add this to the blog


To: All BLACK PEOPLE
From: The Black Naming Committee
RE: Naming Your Children
Date: Effective Immediately Please DO NOT start naming your daughters after the President... This includes names such as: Obamanesha, Obamalisha, Obamarette, Obamalya, Obamaria, Obamanette, Obamanita, Obomamnae`, Baraka, Barakala, Barakella, Barakesha, Barakyah, Baraknae`, Baraknita, & Baraknette, Barakfoofoo, etc.
This is not limited to and/or adding La, Sha, Da, or Ja, Rhi as a prefix is not allowed. STOP IT, STOP IT, STOP IT! DO NOT START THIS MESS! I See It Coming, STOP IT NOW
It is acceptable to name your sons Barack or even Obama, (can't use both on the same child) but that is as far as you may go!
Blessings of Love
I want you to know that "SPELLCHECK" Is Having a FIT!!!

a video starring T-Pain in a battle with his vocoder

T-PAIN v. His Vocoder by T-Pain

Giant Step Common Universal Mind Control

Universal Mind Control feat. Pharrell Official Music Video - Common

Jazzanova’s Of All Things The Album of the Year?

ok i agree with eveery thing he says......

It’s not that I don’t like “street” hip-hop, or the pop music that plays on the radio, it’s just that I feel sorry that most of America won’t ever hear this new album from Jazzanova, and it’s my duty to spread the word. We already heard the collaboration with Phonte that I posted in October, however, I’m just getting around to copping the album, and it’s so good that I almost want to cry. Even though I still believe that this neo-Motown sound needs to die a slow death, I will make exceptions for tracks like ” I Can See,” which takes the sound and modernizes it to perfection.

Tasting Table Stuff

Gifts for the Discerning Cook
When only the best will suffice, try these rare finds
Ultimate Chef's Knife Designed for Shun by Bob Kramer (the Stradivari of bladesmiths), this hefty eight-inch chef's knife offers impeccable balance and a gorgeous Pakkawood handle that feels as though it was shaped specifically for your palm. It might sound expensive, but it costs far less than Kramer's other impossible-to-find knives and it's worth every penny. $340 (which includes a copy of the book Knives Cooks Love) at Sur La Table, 75 Spring St. (at Crosby St.); 212-966-3375‎ or surlatable.com

Natural Cutting Board We love the rough-hewn edge of Architec's Bare Board, which is made from eco-friendly acacia. Its grippy rubber pads prevent it from sliding around the counter, and its rich grain and size (17 by 11 inches) make it a handsome serving piece, too. $25 at Whole Foods markets; wholefoods.com

Brooklyn-Made Copper Pans Hammersmith copper pans are handmade in Brooklyn by a company that's been in business since the 19th century. The pans are lined with tin, which is far superior to the more common stainless steel lining. Though pricey (this brass-handled 10-inch fry pan is $200), it'll be the last cookware you'll ever need to buy. $175 and up at The Brooklyn Kitchen, 616 Lorimer St. (at Skillman Ave.), Brooklyn; 718-389-2982 or thebrooklynkitchen.com
