10 Things You May Not

10 Things You May Not Know About Me. Until Now

1. I was born in Missouri.
2. I was once engaged to someone in my links.
3. I used to tour with Rob Halford.
4. Both of my parents are legally black.
5. I didn’t have a “real job” until my late twenties.
6. I am close/personal friends with both Oprah and Jonathan Franzen, and really know what it feels like to be caught in the middle.
7. My favorite color is plaid.
8. When you are talking to me, 9 times out of 10 I am thinking about my hair and/or perfect complexion.
9. The Adidas Tracksuit thing is so real.
10. I have never seen and will never see the movie Top Gun, which inspired a screenplay that I once began, called How Tom Cruise Ruined My Life.
11. I overdo it. Always.
12. I have had guns pointed at my grill twice.
13. I am the spitting image of Gary Oldman as Sid Vicious in the movie Sid & Nancy. Minus the anorexia and the heroin, of course.
14. I am making lists and posting pictures because I am completely out of interesting stories and my life is super fucking boring right now and I think I need to take a vacation or have an orgy or something of any kind of excitement right now.

virgin atlantic officials said that “they were very surprised at the negative reaction” to their plan to place urinals shaped like a woman’s mouth in the first class lounges at JFK. ok. i might be the most difficult person to offend in the entire world. and these don’t necessarily offend me…but who is so stupid that they would be surprised that people may have a negative reaction to a urinal that makes a man feel like he is pissing into a woman’s mouth? this one is strange. how far did this go before someone caught wind of this? i feel a stream of rather negative feedback pouring in. (i couldn’t resist.)
