Thursday's Gumbo!

Whas gwaan, Blogger Fam??

Supa's a little shaken this morning, got word that a sista co-worker died of cancer last night...Just like my Supa Mom, she was just too young, man. SO. Guess the message is, we've gotta take care of ourselves.. (as in, GOTS TO) The OG hip-hop generation is fast approaching middle age, and these are fast times we're living in. (wink goes out to One Cool Sis & SPD) Physical, emotional, spiritual health all goes hand in hand.....we owe it to ourselves and the people who love us, to be present and active and healthy so we can ENJOY this journey called life.

I've added a healthy living motivational message to the blog called The Daily Om. (scroll down, look on the left hand column) Check it out, there's a new message daily.

So hey! What's happening out there in the world??

First the Shawn and Nasir collabo..






then Bush and Osama's peeps are makin' deals.





Hell, what's next???!! Never mind, don't think I wanna know. Re: Bush - For the love of God/Jah/Allah/Osiris/Jehovah - who's gonna stop this man?!?

Did anyone happen to catch TV's Illest Minority Moments on VH1? Anyone? Anyone? And if you don't already watch Best Week Ever - ya trippin'.


Hey DPM, we can say what we want about Fiddy
least he sticks with the sistas.... he's no gangster on the verge! (yet) Oh, but wait a minute..he's not even a gangsta. Neva mind.

Some hot blogs to check:
Aside from Supa's already established group of favorite BOMB BLOGGERS (look to the left), she's also stumbled upon some new folk who are doing their thizzle:

Sangin' Diva - She's fabulous, she's talented, she's a singin' Diva! She's currently flexing her singing skills in Tokyo, Japan. She's keeping her blog updated while she travels and roams the world. Check her out!

Those Angry Black Folks - She's fearless, she's smart, she's the ruler of the universe, and she's angry! Now that's hot. (no homo) lol

Cornbread & Curry - A meeting place for African-Americans, Indians, and Arabs.

A Girl Named Shawn - a fellow writer, hailing from the LBC, who gave us something to look at & talk about this week!!


Happy Thursday, ya'll!

Supa, out.

Hey, Sista, Lemme try to go in order.

I am really sorry about your co-worker. Stuff like that always snaps me back into a health conscious reality. Oft times you can work hard and still be dinged with something, but I can at least give it my damndest try.

I peeped out all those blogs, what rock did those climb out from under, they are great! I haven't really had the opp to go on the hunt for more. . .But the fellow El Bee Cee-er. Yah. Well, that post was, um, arousing.

(Speaking out, check out Msnhim's post today)

Speaking of, that gumbo made me hongray!

PS: I'm so happy I'm first. I am such an attention whore.

Just kidding! Supa - thanks for the shot outs with the new bloggers!

Sorry to hear about your co-worker..

As for 50. I'm not mad him. Although I can't stand some of his music. I'll always give him props for rolling with a dime. Ain't he married?

Supa said...

@ Me: Wow. Two parents in the same year? That's rough!! My sympathies to you and your fam. You're a strong sis. I feel like I lost my mom TOO young. *sigh*

@ Shawn: Oops! Sorry. I was just trying to "spread the love.."

@ DPM: Nah, I think Fiddy's rollin' solo.

I've been asking the question "when Bush is going to be impeach" since he started this fake war.

I love Best Week Ever. It's so so funny

African girl, American world said...

African girl, American world said...

Sangindiva said...

DAMN! Sorry to hear about your co-worker...
Cancer ain't NO JOKE...

Thanx for the shout!!!
I'm about to get my voyeurism on with the new blogs!!

@BUSH all I can do is *shake my head*
I can't STAND him... BOO.

ANNND... if you're makin' gumbo put some in the freezer!

ddsprncs said...

I love Best week ever and the soup that guy kills me. did you see that show called "thats what I'm talking about" its on tv land. you might like it

A.u.n.t. Jackie said...

Supa-sorry about your loss. I lost 7 people I knew in one year to cancer. Thus I stopped smoking cigarettes.

Cancer is a monster!

that gumbo looks good. i owe someone some gumbo, i'm 'bout to put a pot together before it gets too damn hot to be in the kitchen!

A.u.n.t. Jackie said...

by the way Sis, did you see what happened to your boy? his publisher dumped him!

Shawn said...

Sorry about your lost Supa.

People tease me about being a hypochondriac, but I don't play with health. Sistahs really need to take care of their reproductive health. Usually when we find out we have reproductive cancer, it's too late.

Jameil said...

omg i LOOOOOOOOOVE illest minority moments and its friends race-o-rama. did you see that series? CLASSIC! sign me up! where can i buy it?! lolololol

Supa said...

Miss Ahmad - JUST heard about Jimmy Frey's book deal going bye-bye...ooohhh...i'm worried about that boy.

And what a blow to know that many people to pass in one year. Yes, cancer IS a monstor. Glad you're off the ciggies.

@ Jameil - Need to check out Race-o-Rama!
