What I'm Reading Now

Michael lives in my neighborhood. I do not know him but I see him around all the time. This book (his first) was named one of the top 10 best books of 2007 by the NY Times Book Review. He also just won the Impac Dublin Literary Award.

What I Just Read

My rating:

(I need to cry for 5 stars.)

Janelle interviewed me eons ago for Salon.com. She's a sassy lady who's super nice. This is her first novel. It received rave reviews and I loved every minute of it.

BBC Radio Scotland Interview

I was recently interviewed by Damian Barr for his new series for BBC Radio Scotland called "Fortune Tellers." About "Fortune Tellers"... "Damian Barr hears the first of six extraordinary stories from people whose life has been turned around by great financial success or ruin." Click here to listen.

Damian writes for The Times and is the author of the book Get It Together: Surviving Your Quarterlife Crisis. (Click here for the US Version.) Isn't he cute?

Attack of the Killer Beans

This is the most FABULOUS THING EVER.

LONDON - Hugh Grant has been arrested for allegedly throwing a container of baked beans at a photographer, London police said.

Go, Hugh, go. The only thing that would make this better is if he used something like a seven-layer taco dip.

Remember how I wanted a mugshot so badly? If I ever get one, I hope it's for something like this.

The Bird Flu?

I don't know what made me think of this, but remember that whole bird flu pandemic thing about a year ago? Everyone--Oprah, Dateline, Good Morning America, 60 Minutes, etc.--scared the sh*t out of America with their specials and people everywhere started stockpiling water and food... My God, there was even a made-for-TV movie about it.

Well, I guess it isn't gonna happen because I haven't heard anything about it since... well, a year ago.

Anyway, just for fun... bird flu books on Amazon. There are 792 of them.


Also, totally unrelated... but there's a commercial on right now for a Hoveround, and I totally want one.

It's that catchy Beach Boys' "Round, round, get around... I get around!" commercial that did it for me. Everyone in it is totally partying.

(I found this bad copy of it on YouTube. I'll try to find a better one.)

The Truth About "Nut Brackets" by Alexyss K. Tylor

NOTE: The following post contains sexually explicit content.

I got my hot little hands on a SECOND Alexyss K. Tylor video clip and had to share it with you. This one is a special Halloween episode. In it, Alexyss discusses Vagina Power and Penis Power with her mother, and is dressed up as a pilot because she's "piloting the pussssssyy!" Meow!



Lessons learned from this episode:
  • Y'all got to be the pussy police, because if y'all don't be careful these men you are committing to is giving the dick away that's got to go up in your vagina.
  • A lot of men done took the wedding band off the finger because they know the wedding band is gonna be a noose around the nuts, a true "nut bracket" to lock them in and keep them in check so they don't give it to nobody else.
  • The penis and the testicles have no discretion because the pussy ain't got no face.
  • Men give dick away.
  • A lot of men try to meet up with other women to ration a piece of the dick out.
  • Government-rationed cheese is good but hard. It constipates and run up all in you and locks your bowels up.
  • Men got to keep their nuts busy.
  • Men get a "tingling" all in their nuts when their nuts bored.
Scroll down or click here to see the first Alexyss K. Tylor Pussy Power video.

Alexyss' show, "Pussy Power," is on Atlanta Public Access TV9 at 9pm on Wednesdays.

"Earn Your Man, Learn Your Man" - Wise Advice from Alexyss K. Tylor

NOTE: The following post contains sexually explicit content.

Profound advice from Alexyss K. Tylor, author, lecturer, motivation speaker, TV host, "vagina power" expert.



Lessons I learned from Alexyss:

  • If you really want to earn your man, you need to learn your man.
  • There's nothing wrong with liking a flashy man.
  • Some women are hooked on coming.
  • Some men have so much heat and intensity in their penis, you can feel it radiate through their clothes. It feels like fire underneath their skin.
  • Shrimp dinner at Long John Silver's cost $2.99.
  • Men who offer you "a side of penis" don't respect you.
  • Don't let every man hit the bottom of your vagina and work that middle.
  • Some women's mind ain't good because the penis done ejaculate all in her brain.
  • Some men screw women into submission - i.e. "slavery" - by using the penis as a weapon to break her arse down.
  • When you're wide open with a penis all up in your vagina, you don't have no defenses.
  • The worst thing that can happen is when a man, while he's thrusting the penis in and out, says, "Whose is it? Whose vagina is it? Who it belong to? Now, wha- wha- what I say? Who? Who?"
  • Don't let every man spank your bottom and talk to you all kind of ways.

Visit Alexyss on MySpace. Her theme song is fabulous.



Alexyss' show, "Pussy Power," is on Atlanta Public Access TV9 at 9pm on Wednesdays.
