'Sex and the City' and 'The Carrie's Diaries'

For those who don't know 'The Carrie's Diaries' is an 80's set dramedy which chronicles the adolescent years of Carrie Bradshaw. A 16-year-old Carrie interns in New York City, where a run-in with a chic style editor sparks the future columnist’s warm and fuzzy feelings about Manhattan.

As an ardent 'Sex and the City' fan, I look forward to watching the prequel 'The Carrie's Diaries' which is premiering early next year although I am a tad worried if it will last more than a season with the way series are being scrapped these days. I hope it comes with a bit of the appeal of 'Sex and the City' with the tale of friendship, love and shoes too. Loads of them J

Horror Movie Kids - Then and Now

I understand the power of make up and costume but Samara from the movie "The Ring" is probably the scariest character I have ever seen. There was a time I used to say no movie scares me. That was before I saw "The Ring". That girl was creepy as hell. You'll be shocked to see what she looks like now. Continue to see what some horror movie kids of the the past look like now.

Who Knew? Eddie Murphy Sang

Who knew that Eddie Murphy was a recording artist at any time in his life? I HAD ABSOLUTELY NO CLUE!!! But I just found out (thank you Wikipedia).

Apparently Edward Regan "Eddie" Murphy was quite successful as a pop artiste in the 80s and early 90s. As a solo artiste, he had two hit singles, his highest-charting LP, 1985′s ‘How Could it Be’, which peaked at #26 on the Billboard 200 and "Party All the Time" (which was produced by Rick James). "Party All the Time" was Murphy’s lone top 10 hit on the Billboard Hot 100. The track climbed to #2 on the lineup in 1985 and was ranked as the #7 most successful hit at the end of 1986.

Well I saw the "Party all the time" video. Groovy. Shoulder pads and weird looking  hair all over the place. Rick James had blond weave on. Reminded me of the old Miami vice movie. lol. The video was nice though. And Eddie Murphy was really cute. Not bad at all.

"My Aluu Experience" - @money_alchemist

 The Aluu 4 murder was probably the most shocking and depressing story I have heard in a really long time. For the Aluu 4 story click here. I still feel so heavy and sick to my stomach anytime I think about it. I felt particularly bad about the whole thing because it happened in my alma mater and  also because I lived in the outskirts of Aluu for about a year while I was in school. In an effort to shake off this dark feeling, I kept up bringing the topic up in every conversation I had with everyone. This was what led me to have a chat with @money_alchemist, an old friend from school. As I was lamenting about the way I felt and how I could not believe people could act so cruel and inhumane, he suddenly goes, ‘Did I ever tell you how I almost got lynched at Aluu when I was in school?’ and I, in shock, asked, "You almost got lynched?’ then he told me his story…….
