The kids are home from school. I'm on the beach. I have some expense reports to complete but otherwise I am free to indulge the braincells. So here's what I've decided to do.
I'm going to have a Fishbone marathon on the iTunes and read something from every black blog on the Negrophile blogroll. I am therefore going to create, my own instant Carnival of the Darkside.
For some reason, I have a creeping sense of claustrophobia in the black blog world. I tried to get a million people to pay attention to the fact that John Conyers was online, and nobody cared. Or so it seems. OK so let me plumb the depths and see what I come up with. In the italics will be the Fishbone song which may or may not have anything to do with the blog excerpt of the minute.
Subliminal Fascism
(damn that was quick)
Bonin' in the Boneyard
When was the president really going to fire Karl Rove, asks Blackprof.
Jai has got some kickin' gear. Portable DAT. Me like.
Mighty Long Way
Allison bemoans life in NYC. But at least there's De La Soul and Lauryn Hill.
I'm not sure what to make of Faye Anderson. Is she turning into another bitter and ineffective clone of Julianne Malveaux? This week she's full of piss and vinegar. Nobody meets with her satisfaction. She just cries out for outrage. Yeah well I have those weeks too.
Change
Shana cracks me up with her parody of Kirk Franklin. I've had those weeks as well.
Hey Ma & Pa
Now I know what the baldheaded dude was all about when I cruised through Oprah yesterday. Thanks Rod.
Pouring Rain
The Brotha Code is dead. Don't bother.
Chippla is all over the world. Too deep for me.
Dell Gines wrestles with a moniker. I hope he keeps conservative, for a number of reasons that I won't go into. I like his stuff a lot.
Ghetto Soundwave
There's a huge group blog Global Voices which ain't black but brown. What to make of it? Too much to tell. Just know it's there.
Dare Obasanjo hipped me to upcoming.com. Cool stuff
Love & Hate
Mz Powderpink is partying with Brey-Brey and also putting hilarious words in GWB's mouth. Damn. My eyes hurt after reading that blog.
Cool photos at Bluemoaner.
Servitude
The Humanity Critic tracks the faded careers of Da Brat, Saigon and Royce da 5'9.
Somethings just defy my sense of the real. One of those things is that it might be actually possible to write down a recipe for gumbo. I'm looking at it, but I just don't believe it.
OK it doesn't matter what Honeysoul has to say, just check out the mugs on the sidebar. Damn, where was the blogosphere when I was single?
Nuttmegg
Obsidian Bear explains 'hasbiens'.
Planet Grenada is in the same place as I am. Time to review what the blogosphere is.
Wait a minute... I just realized how huge the Negrophile blogroll is. I'm never going to finish this. I guess that's going to have to suffice for the moment. Maybe I'll update some more later today. My head is starting to swim...
