The Texas Tiger Chronicles

The Texas Tiger Chronicles

Question of the Day: Do you remember how you felt when Chip Field aka Penny's momma on Good Times looked lil Janet Jackson right in the eyes after she ran to the bathroom and said "I locked it. I knew it would be the first place you'd run to hide." Do you remember?

I was abused growing up. Not physically, or sexually but mentally. I remember it like yesterday, it was 1990 and Janet Jackson was on her first world tour to support the release of Rhythm Nation 1814. I asked my dad for tickets and he didn't buy them for me and he provided no valid explanation. I cried a river of tears that night. And I still haven't recovered from that. So if I ever send my father a nice and low sarcastic comment you know where it stems from.

Oh and in case you are wondering, my web blog is going to be very Rosie O'Donnell-ish in terms of my random thoughts and association and the free-flowing nature. Doesn't expect a theme. I am really moody.

And by the way, I am sitting in a coffee shop in Harlem named Society. I just ran into this beautiful chocolate girl who sings her own songs on her acoustic guitar on the Upper East Side on Wednesday night. Much like India.Arie except she looks like she grew up in the suburbs and I am here only black friend.

Why did this lady just ride by the coffee shop on a bicycle with her head in an old-school Erykah Badu head wrap....really? It is 90 degrees outside, I know her scalp is a hot mess.


And oh, I used to be a musician so I want to end each web blog like it’s a lyrical composition with the word Fine. And I don't know when Fine will appear because like I said, I am really moody and I will just throw it at you when I get bored.

But before I go, um....where are people always staring at me. I mean honestly, someone is always watching me. Now I expect that at work cause I am the only black guy but like right now....why so much attention? It is so hard being so attractive and stunning. I imagine Naomi Campbell knows how I feel. I am going to ask her about it one day when I interview her.


Fine.
