I've been reading a fascinating book recently about this subject/event from history.


Of course what I'm talking about is the migration in the late 1800s early 1900s of Black people from the South of USA into Northern cities.


Although the book I've been reading is very informative, the one thing it doesn't really say is if there was any pattern whereby people from a particular state would go to a particular city or not, and why they might do so.

LOS ANGELES - Groups that vet charities are raising doubts about the organization backed by Wyclef Jean, questioning its accounting practices and ability to function in earthquake-hit Haiti. But the Haitian-born rapper calls the allegations baseless.


Even as more than $2 million poured into The Wyclef Jean Foundation Inc. via text message after just two days, experts questioned how much of the money would help those in need.

Ok I'm gonna be a bit controversial here (and I don't want anyone thinking I'm asking this because I'm up to no good either!).


I was discussing with the guys the other night about women who say this.

By now we all would have heard about the earthquake yesterday in Haiti.

Do you agree with Prudence's reply?

We've been having some cold snowy icey weather lately, and this is taken from a news item.


I think it's brilliant, especially as it happened to me as well the other day.


Happy weekend, all! Do you believe that it's the second weekend in 2010 already? And that Christmas was a mere 2 weeks ago?


Anyway, drop by and state who you are, where you're from, etc. and what plans you have for the weekend.

I saw recently on ABC's Nightline a group of black women being interviewed. All were successful, attractive and single. The statistics quoted stated black women were the least married in the US. 70% of black female college grads were single. The show also quoted a stat stating 42% of black women will never marry in the US. AND even if every single available black man in the US married a black woman, 1 in 12 black women would remain single.
