“Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery,
none but ourselves can free our minds.”
–Bob Marley
My favorite song by him.
& I also think the Patriots could use a
Redemption Song after last night’s Super Bowl.
Happy Birthday Bob Marley!

Darkie Appreciation Post
WARNING: This post is for all of the dark chocolate men in the world.
Yellow Bellies please don’t take offense.
There’s something about dark chocolate that
makes my Vicky‘s evaporate.
Call me crazy, but I always associate dark skinned men as being stronger
& harder workers (maybe it’s the whole “house nigger“/”field nigger” complex).
Or maybe the darker meat resembles that of
an African Warrior King, running alongside
his trusty lion (Simba?) , hunting,
while I wait in the hut in all my hormonal
pregnant glory waiting to cook what he has
triumphantly slaughtered.
