Party Like It’s 1999 Soul Train Stylee

You know this song is gonna be played all around the world tonight.

Don’t you miss hearing Don Cornelius and his deep voice every Saturday morning? What about the scramble board, lip-synched performances and the dance line? My girls always made me be the token asian girl with the ass length hair when we did our Soul Train sessions. Ahh the good ‘ol days.

Below is a pic of Cheryl Song in her hey day and in 2005. She finally trimmed that hair.

When Sharks Poop

If you follow our blog, you know by now we sometimes have a tendency to post things that are not so pleasing to the eye. Well, poop ain’t that pleasing but seeing it come out of a shark whale is to me. Plus I thought it would fit nicely with the picture I’m about to publish above.

Enjoy.

Recycle Them Trees

It’s estimated that 30 million Christmas trees made it into our living rooms this year. I was relived to learn that for every tree that is cut down, three seedlings are planted the following year to replace it, making it the ultimate carbon offset.

Many counties have curbside services. Be sure to check out the Earth 911 site to see if your area recycles trees, if not, type in your zip code and it will provide you with the a recycling facility near you.

Bev. Hills Surgeon Uses Body Fat To Fuel Car

A Beverly Hills doctor is being investigated after patients filed complaints that he performed liposuction and extracted too much fat and left them disfigured. During the investigation it was founded that he was turning the fat he removed from patients into biodiesel that fueled his Ford SUV and his girlfriend’s Lincoln Navigator.

Fat, whether animal or vegetable, contains triglycerides that can be extracted and turned into diesel. Using fat to fuel cars might be environmentally friendly, but it’s definitely illegal in California to use human medical waste to power vehicles.

Would you be down to fuel your car with human fat if it were legal, safe and available?

Green Plastic. Cha-Ching!

“Put it on the credit card and worry ’bout it later”. This approach to spending sounds like a reasonable way to deal with this damn recession ( well at least that’s what I tell myself).

That being said, it looks like the credit card companies are giving you an excuse to feel less guilty about putting the latest Marc Jacobs handbag or Christian Louboutin pumps on that lil’ piece of plastic.

Discover launched their biodegradable credit card “in response to greater consumer interest in green products, and they are hoping this will appeal to those interested in living a greener life.”

“The biodegradable Discover Card is another way for environmentally conscious consumers to do their part to help protect our planet.”

“The card itself is made of biodegradable PVC, which breaks down 99% in nine months to five years in soil, water, compost, or whatever microorganisms are present (e.g. landfills or composts). Plus, the card leaves no toxic effect on the environment.”

This seems like a good start, but I would have to agree with the the lovely ladies over at Ladies Lotto,”it can’t possibly be all that good for the environment when it encourages unnecessary consumerism.”

Ponder that for a minute cuz this is one of dem things that make you go “hmmmm.”
