<p>I spoke about this morbidly obese woman <a href="http://www.hicktownpress.com/gabourey-sidibe-morbidly-obese-and-bad-role-model/">HERE</a>.    Her health is clearly being affected by all that weight.  Though Stern (who I actually do NOT like) was crude, what did he say that was false?  Robin, his sidekick, lost her excess weight several years ago.  It CAN be done. </p>
<p>Also, Hollywood needs to stop putting this mammy image out there to depict black women.  When will this Aunt Jemima nonsense go away?  A beautiful, healthy looking young black actress could very well have played that role.  Don&#8217;t go out there and find someone so huge that she can barely fit in her seat at the Oscars.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s stop coddling these type of people.  If she does not stop eating all that ice cream, pie, cookies, cake and chocolate, can you imagine the shape she&#8217;ll be in by the time she&#8217;s 30?  She won&#8217;t be able to move.  This is serious.  Sorry, but I have to side with Howard and Robin on this one.</p>

<blockquote><p>Michael Winans Jr. told investors they could double their money in 60 days. Detroit police identified and interviewed at least 180 investors, but state regulators say the actual number is higher.</p>
<p>&#8220;Our investigation found that Michael Winans Jr. orchestrated a scheme that resulted in hundreds of Detroit residents losing millions of hard-earned dollars,&#8221; Ross said in a release. &#8220;Promising sky-high, guaranteed returns, these scammers unscrupulously fleeced unsuspecting churchgoers who let their financial guard down.&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<p><strong>No driving while shaving your crotch.  Check this out:</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>Florida Highway Patrol troopers say a two-vehicle crash Tuesday at Mile Marker 21 on Cudjoe Key was caused by a 37-year-old woman driver who was shaving her bikini area while her ex-husband took the wheel from the passenger seat.</p>
<p>&#8220;She said she was meeting her boyfriend in Key West and wanted to be ready for the visit,&#8221; Trooper Gary Dunick said. &#8220;If I wasn&#8217;t there, I wouldn&#8217;t have believed it. About 10 years ago I stopped a guy in the exact same spot &#8230; who had three or four syringes sticking out of his arm. It was just surreal and I thought, &#8216;Nothing will ever beat this.&#8217; Well, this takes it.&#8221;</p>
<p>If that weren&#8217;t enough, Megan Mariah Barnes was not supposed to be driving and her 1995 Ford Thunderbird was not supposed to be on the road.</p>
<p>The day before the wreck, Barnes was convicted in an Upper Keys court of DUI with a prior and driving with a suspended license, said Monroe County Assistant State Attorney Colleen Dunne. Barnes was ordered to impound her car, and her driver&#8217;s license was revoked for five years, after which time she must have a Breathalyzer ignition interlock device on any vehicle she drives, Dunne said. Barnes also was sentenced to nine months&#8217; probation.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Does anyone know of an update on the Frank Lombard story? I am very disturbed that this horrific story was not really covered well in the mainstream media. It is believed that the reason it was not covered is due to the fact that Frank Lombard is a homosexual who allegedly adopted a black child for the purpose of sexually abusing him. He was allegedly caught online trying to pimp this victim out like an animal.</p>
<p>If anyone has an update on this very sad and disturbing case, please let me know.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Oh, well.  I guess that those who try to preach the gospel to demons had better be certain that they are prayed up and covered with the blood of Jesus before walking out there:</p>
<blockquote><p>Jeriah Woody executed two men who made the mistake of preaching religion to the 18-year-old, a witness has told police.</p>
<p>Woody, who turned himself in to Boynton Beach police Wednesday, is charged with two counts of first-degree murder in the Saturday night deaths of Stephen Ocean, 23, and Tite Sufra, 24, near the Boynton Beach city library.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><p><a href="http://www.hicktownpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/pope1.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-4138" title="pope1" src="http://www.hicktownpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/pope1-300x202.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="202" /></a>The Vatican has been thrown into chaos by reports that one of the Pope&#8217;s ceremonial ushers, as well as a member of the elite Vatican choir, were involved in a homosexual prostitution ring.</p>
<p>The allegations came to light after Italian newspapers published transcripts of phone calls recorded by police, who had been conducting an unrelated corruption investigation.</p>
<p>The tapes appear to record Angelo Balducci, a Gentleman of His Holiness, negotiating with Thomas Chinedu Ehiem, a 29-year-old Nigerian Vatican chorister, about men he wanted brought to him for sexual purposes. Balducci was allegedly paying 2,000 euros ($2,714) for each man he met, according to the <em><a href="http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/world/2010/0304/1224265559432.html" target="_hplink">Irish Times</a></em>.</p></blockquote>
<p>Prostitution ring aside, would someone mind explaining why the pope is referred to as “His Holiness”?  Only God should be referred to that way.</p>
<p>Regarding the freak ring, I am not at all surprised.  I believe that 98% of them (at least) in the Vatican, are engaged in eyebrow lifting activities. Why are people pretending to be shocked?</p>

<p>This is a man who went out of his head based on the fact that Barack Obama did not show up for one of his boring, useless black agenda  forums on the state of black America. </p>
<p>Black folks rebelled against him last year as a result of his constant attacks on Barack.  As a result, he quit the Tom Joyner morning show but came back again a few days ago to continue his rock throwing against Barack.  </p>
<p>It appeared that he was going against Sharpton and others but read between the lines.  The true underlying attack was against Barack whom he claims is not doing enough for blacks.  I guess Hillary Clinton&#8212;whom he supported, would have done more, huh?</p>
<p>How happy I was when he cancelled his ridiculous State of the Black Union this year. But did I rejoice to soon?</p>
<p>Check this nonsense out.  He is again going to have the black agenda meeting, but under another name&#8212;and President Obama will again be his target.  This man really should seek counseling, as his fixation on the president is scary.</p>
<p>Now Smiley has dragged Al Sharpton and other blacks of authority into his mess.</p>
