WatchLil’ Wayne ft. T-Pain - Get Money
I already liked the song OK but the video makes it even better. I think it’s the lighthearted dancing T-Pain does. And his top hat. And the ‘He Raps’ ‘He Sings’ t-shirts. And the big booty girls.
I heart big booty girls.

Serious, serious steez here. Crazy transformation from what he used to look like, which is this:

Woolrich Woolen Mills F/W 08
Woolen Mills hired this Daiki Suzuki to revamp their brand about two years ago. They use all Woolen Mills fabrics made in America and focus on the utility of each detail.

Some choice quotes:
After daughter Devon started dating Lenny Kravitz: “She always do the right thing,” says Rocky. “She say, ‘You sure?’ I say, ‘No problem.’ She say, ‘He’s half-black, half-Jewish.’ I say, ‘That’s okay … That’s America! I can’t get away from the blacks and the Jews!’”

Hollywood's Lessons for America
So I’m watching House S01E04 cause I just got into the show. The case for this episode is a bunch of dying babies. Of course nobody knows what is causing it, but House is leading the way. It boils down to taking two babies and treating them differently to narrow down whats wrong. So one baby will die.
One baby is from a set of white Juden parents.
One baby is from a set of mixed race...
