Somebody Call a Blacksmith! I'm Locked Out of My Office!

When Staff Appreciation Day rolls around, if you are an Ignorantic, you better treat your support staff with LOVE because I just got a call from someone who is turning in a member of her staff for asking her to "call a blacksmith because her locks weren't working properly".

By the way, the blacksmith is pictured to the left, but an ordinary locksmith would probably suffice in this situation.

What is Clementine Weather?

Ok, so on the left is a picture of clementines. Our next Ignorantic didn't know that clementines are fruit.

In this YouTube video, you will see testimony from the caterer regarding a dispute with a customer. The caterer testifies that in his contract he provides that "during clementine weather...we cannot..." He also uttered those words in Court leaving the judge totally stunned because the contract uses the word "clementine". Watch it here: During Clementine Weather

Martin Luther King Jr. Does Not Belong on a Party Flyer

I blogged about the Martin Loofa Exfoliating Gloves (See: Martin Loofa Gloves ), and now I want to address something that is equally as disturbing: Martin Luther King Jr.'s name and likeness on party flyers. Check out these flyers:

No School? No ID? Using the man who fought for education and the right to vote? and with Dr. Dre's Beats headphones on? Really folks? What's next? Coretta Scott King and Rosa Parks in lace front wigs sprawled over a 70's Buick sitting on 24s to promote your next "Ladies Get in Free Before 12" event? [I know...don't give them any ideas...I'm just saying]

Martin Luther King Jr. is a national icon in the history of progressivism. He was awarded the noble peace prize for combating racial inequality through non-violence, and he is best known as a prominent leader in the civil rights movement for African Americans...better still, there is a monument in Washington, D.C. dedicated to him. We celebrate his accomplishments every year via a federal holiday, President Obama is going to be sworn in at his second Inauguration using Dr. King's Bible, and this is how WE choose to depict Dr. King?

Martin Luther King Jr. belongs in the schools, in our churches, memorialized in our history, but not in the club! This goes beyond "we have to do better"...your thoughts? Let's talk.
