This is the weekend for Community Healing Days. It’s the third weekend in October designed to raise awareness about the continued effects of the myths of black inferiority and white superiority and a call to action for people to eliminate the lies once and for all.

Seems like hot dogs and Tiger Woods are not a good mix. A fan over the weekend threw a hot dog at the golfer. It happened on the seventh green at the CordeValle Golf Club at the Frys.com Open in Northern, CA.
Congrats to rapper- actor Snoop Dogg. There’s word that NBC picked up his family sitcom where he will play the father. Veteran comedy writer Don Reo is also involved in the project, which was meant for Warner Bros TV but ended up with NBC with a script commitment.
Kudos to Tony and Academy Award-winning actor Denzel Washington for donating over $2 million to Fordham University for a scholarship for minority theatre majors. It also creates the Denzel Washington Chair in Theatre.
From the nice to have money file. Congrats to actor-comedian Eddie Murphy. There’s word that Murphy bought a 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG. He was seen getting out of his luxury ride over the weekend in L.A.
Life moves so fast that we forget the many things we should be thankful for. These are the things we usually take for granted. I think you know what I mean. We are not talking rocket science here. We are talking basic facts.
How would you celebrate a friend’s birthday?. If your rapper Jim Jones, you take him to a New York City nightclub and let the champagne flow. I hear he ordered 32 bottles of Moet to the tune of $20k. If that’s not enough, he gave the server a $6k tip. Talk about a big tipper. I'm sure the bartender was grinning from ear to ear.
There’s word that rapper T.I. is celebrating his halfway house release this week by hosting a $100k Atlanta brunch for 150 of his friends. $20k will be spent on food and another $8k on dessert.
