Soulja Boy Buys Himself a $55 Million Jet for His Birthday : People.com

I'm sorry but I had no clue this guy has this kind of money. Now over the past few years Soulja Boy has had a few successful tracks here and there but nothing on a consistent basis. So how is it possible for this guy to afford a Gulfstream 5 when he is only worth about 23 million. Now don't get me wrong 23 million is certainly a lot of money and I really don't understand why he has to flaunt to anyone about something he can't afford. OK could it be that he is leasing the aircraft and think that its the same thing as buying one (O_o)? In Soulja Boy's defense in the article his representative did say that rumor was not true. So I guess this whole thing is a rumor I guess and was made up by itself #SMH. Soulja Boy Buys Himself a $55 Million Jet for His Birthday : People.com

Restraint Technique Could Be Fatal


I'm sure if you have ever been put in restraints you'd know exactly what they are talking about. It certainly seems like there could be some changes to techniques across the board to prevent legal action. This story comes from the UK but I'm sure our system of using restraints is not too far away. BBC News - Restraint technique could be fatal, research suggests

Lady Eats Dryer Sheets???? Lol


This might be one of the most strangest stories I ever heard in my life. This lady on a daily basis eats dryer sheets to ease stress in her everyday life. At first glance I laughed at this whole situation reassuring myself that this lady is crazy but I changed my position on her after watching this video. Nevertheless this habit gets her through life's worries and it makes total sense to her. I just hope this habit is not detrimental to her health in the long run but who knows. Do you have any habits as bizarre as this?

What Are The Origins Of Planking ????

OK planking is the latest craze that everyone is into but there is a lot of history associated with it. Now I've come across a article that said planks are what the slaves slept on coming from Africa. Slaves were stacked vertically and horizontally in these closely stacked wooden structures for transport. On the other hand there were several other sources that stated that planking (a.k.a Lying Down Game) is a simple game that originated in North England. As a result its kind of hard to take any of these findings for face value. What are your thoughts about this planking craze? Do you have any other information about the origin of planking? If so please email me mrstayinhislanejones@gmail.com . Lying Down Game  Slaves Used Planks For Transport

"No Homo" What's The Big Deal!!!!


What's up with this whole "No Homo" thing when you refer to the same sex.  I really don't feel like anytime I make a comment I need to finish my sentence with a "No Homo". I mean come on is there a "No Homo" police that keeps track of the people that don't use it wth lol. Nevertheless I know you maybe like what's wrong with me but the fact of the matter is I'm confident with my sexuality. So do you feel obligated to use the "No Homo" phrase when refering to the same sex?

Is This Reverse Racism ????


This is some more mess designed to keep you away from the real issues. Why does it  even matter the color of the editor is?  The editors position is designed to critique your writing not write articles. Besides I'm sure the new editor comes highly recommended and was chosen because of his or her work ethic. Do you think a non black editor is bad for Essence? What is the real issue in this situation?  Should Essence Magazine Have a White Male Managing Editor?

50 Cent Knocks Jill Scott's Weight on Twitter | Essence.com

Will somebody please give 50 cent some attention please. I know there is some super producers that would love to help this ignorant waste of talent out LOL. Then again I'm not totally confident that is would work because he works with Dr Dre now. More importantly I wonder could he just retire and save himself some embarrassment because his music is TRASH #SMH. Let me know what think of this situation?  50 Cent Knocks Jill Scott's Weight on Twitter | Essence.com
