Are you happy with what is going on in the world? Do you believe you can make a difference? If you witness injustice would you get involved? If someone wanted your opinion on something would you give it? Only you can answer these questions. Spend time with self answering the questions.
There’s word that actor- director Tyler Perry has made American Airlines an offer they couldn’t refuse. The rumor is that he has purchased the struggling airlines for $5 million. The new airline: African American Airlines.

While surfacing the internet last night, I came across a TED Talk that really interested me. It was by science writer Annie Murphy Paul. She talked about fetal origins. Paul starting the talk with a pop quiz: When does learning begin? Answer: Before we are born.
There’s word that Burger King is changing its french fry recipe for the first time since the late 90’s. Seems like the competition is forcing the second largest hamburger chain to step up their game.
I don’t know about you but I’m tired of hearing about the man who wants to be our next president, Herman Cain. There is speculation that he might drop out of the race. The latest news comes after a report that Cain had a 13 year affair with Ginger White. Let’s not forget the four other women who have accused Cain of sexual harassment before Miss Ginger. The party has to realize that it’s a distraction.
If you were walking down the street and saw someone breaking into a store would you call the police? If you saw a man being beaten by a gang would you get involved? If you saw a random posting on Facebook by a woman who threatened to kill herself because she was sexually abused would you reach out and help? Most people would not get involved. It’s called the Bystander Effect.
One of the people I admired was the late Steve Jobs. He has left us with a legacy in technology. I don’t know if he’s more popular now that he’s gone versus when he was alive. Seems like daily we are learning more about him.
A lot of Tyler Perry fans are upset over his casting of Kim Kardashian in his upcoming movie “The Marriage Counselor.” It’s a film about faith, forgiveness and healing power of God. I get it. My beef is calling her a role model for the younger generation. They say people look up to her.
