Are You Next? Are They Watching? Could They Have Their Eye On You?
Someone on Blogit could be, should be, may be the next MacArthur Fellow. What is a MacArthur Fellow, you may ask? A MacArthur Fellow is a person who receives a phone call out of the blue telling them that they have been awarded a no strings attached monetary prize in the amount of $500,000 over a...

JFK For President-- Again?
Is it just me or has anyone else noticed that presidential hopeful John Forbes Kerry shares the same initials as former president John Fitzgerald Kennedy? Actually, a reporter pointed it out in an article profiling the candidate. Why hasn't Kerry taken advantage of this similarity? I was told by a...

I Think Some Bloggers Thrive On Being Bullied
I volunteered my time for a few hours yesterday on the "get out and vote" phone bank at one of the local democratic campaign sites. I plan to do it again on Monday and Tuesday. I am one of those types of people who can't just sit around and talk about getting something done. I try to become a part...

A CUDDLE PARTY!?!?! SAY WHAT? NOW WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT?
Yes, I am shouting! Why? Because I can't believe that in New York, people are paying thirty dollars each to get a hug from a stranger! Thirty bucks? Some mastermind in New York is raking in the money now. They ran with the idea of loading a bunch of people in pajamas, armed with pillows and...

I Don't Put Anything Past Anyone These Days
I never know what people are capable of. I never know what to expect. I was about to flick off the television the other night when a moveable room caught my attention. That's right-- a moveable room. The story on the program was about a California man who literally wanted to get closer to nature. He...

Some Bloggers Are Easy To Read...
Are my vibrations high today or was I born yesterday? It never fails. I am in a mall, a grocery store or some other open, public place minding my own business when a strange woman walks up to me. " Your vibrations are high and your aura is strong. May I give you a reading?", she asks while handing...

Jerry Springer Nation
We have now become a society that revels in the inner workings of the lives of strangers. I was thinking about how not so very long ago, I would look at people on talk shows and wonder what the heck they were doing there. How could they talk about their personal lives on national television? Why do...

Some Bloggers Always Have A Need To Be Right
Do you have a need to be right? I know that sometimes I do. Iyanla Vanzant is a well-known, well-respected author of several books including One Day My Soul Just Opened Up and Yesterday I Cried. Reading her books helped me through a very difficult part of my life just a few short years ago. Her...

Fellow Bloggers: Are You Black, Are You White Or...
Are You A Subtle Shade Of Gray? I am not referring to your outer appearance. Frankly, I could care less (or is that couldn't care less, Beachy? ) Anyway, I am referring to your perception of others. Imagine a board that is half black on one side and half white on the other side. Imagine that you...

Some Bloggers Should Think About Starting Over...
There is a reality show that I love to watch called Starting_Over. This show is centered around six regular women who are trying to re-invent their lives. The Starting Over house mates are required to work to make changes in their lives individually and as a group. They do this with the help of life...
