THE BLACK SNOB Drinkin' coffee. Updating the blog! Posted at 11:13 AM Jul 3 view more
I am THE SNOB, a freelance journalist, art school drop out, suburban semi-snob, rock music lover, jazz chanteuse and tragic hobohemian suffering from Mass Procrastination Disorder. My MPD is so crippling that I have written several novels and screenplays that remain unfinished.
You can find my most days on The Snob Blog -- THE BLACK SNOB.
My turn-ons include TJ Holmes, thick books, war correspondents, pretty shoes, Wentworth Miller, international relations, SWAT team members, mojitos, RoboCop, B-Boys, highly intelligent people, pop-n-lock routines, "Grey's Anatomy," black history, "Superman," Prince, St. Louis' Central West End/University City/Forest Park region (hawt!), all kinds of delicious food and fine literature, adorable men who are super "earnest" and "sweet" and "polite" and are willing to allow me to corrupt them in some fashion, satire, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, Mojitos, Jon Stewart, Bakersfield's own Mama Roomba's, "boys, boys, all kinds of boys, black, white, Puerto Rican, Chinese boys," C-SPAN, Vanity Fair Magazine, "sexiness," beat poetry, all kinds of "bad-asses," the Dallas Cowboys, funny women, sophisticated southern accents and hitting on people like I'm some drunken, rich dirty old woman.
Turn-offs ... stupid people and Wolf Blitzer.
Who I'd like to meet:
PRINCE! (of course), TJ Holmes (my Reese's Peanut Butter Cup of TV News), Wentworth Miller (My Fey Incognegro Amor!), Lara Logan (I totally go gay for her war coverage), Michael Ware (My dream porn would star Ware, Logan, Richard Engel ... and probably Christiane Amanpour -- I'd call it "Brokeback Anbar Province"), Naomi Campbell (Phone-Fu Master), Ann Curry (I imagine she smells like strawberries and cocaine), Johnny Depp (him or Robert Downey Jr. I go back and forth on that one), Kara Walker (genius), Cintra Wilson (hilarious), Darius James (hilarious genius), Michelle Obama (My Shero), Robert Deniro (any man who loves black women AND is the greatest actor of his generation is all right with me), Martin Scorsese (The Man), etc.
Oh, and Andy Samberg. He and Kristen Wiig are the only reasons I still watch SNL. Hilarious.
Father God, thank You, for the opportunity to be able to come to You, by the sacrifice of, Your only begotten Son Jesus Christ our Lord,who offerd His Life, for our sins, while yet we were sinners, help us to live and speak in a way that is pleasing to Your sight(Matthew 5:16Let your light so shine before men that they may see your moral excellence and your praiseworthy, noble, and good deeds and recognize and honor and praise and glorify your Father Who is in heaven.)help us to walk according to Your Word(Roman12:17Repay no one evil for evil, but take thought for what is honest and proper and noble [aiming to be above reproach] in the sight of everyone.18If possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.19Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave the way open for [God's] wrath; for it is written, Vengeance is Mine, I will repay (requite), says the Lord.)we thank You for Your Grace and Mercy toward us,help us to not worry about how we feel, but with Your help, walk blamelessly before others, but most importantly You(2Corinthians8:21For we take thought beforehand and aim to be honest and absolutely above suspicion, not only in the sight of the Lord but also in the sight of men.)2Corinthians13:11Finally, brethren, farewell (rejoice)! Be strengthened (perfected, completed, made what you ought to be); be encouraged and consoled and comforted; be of the same [agreeable] mind one with another; live in peace, and [then] the God of love [Who is the Source of affection, goodwill, love, and benevolence toward men] and the Author and Promoter of peace will be with you.12Greet one another with a consecrated kiss.13All the saints (the people of God here) salute you.14The grace (favor and spiritual blessing) of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the presence and fellowship (the communion and sharing together, and participation) in the Holy Spirit be with you all.Stay safe and in His divine favor my friend, and have a blessed week.May every eye that see this be called a child of GOD and their families and friends and the world.What a mighty God we serve.

Merry Christmas! I found your blog today when I googled "Jonathan Capehart". You are a wonderful, delightful voice of clarity. And how great to see that in such a young woman. When I recover from the "economy" I will definitly pay my way to read your blog! And, I look forward to reading your completed novel someday. Keep going, and good luck!
Message In The Poem: There are no coincidences in life, everything happens for a reason and that reason could be because of CHANCE.
Compliments to my Friend Robbie for giving me the title for this poem!
CHANCE
I don't believe in coincidences Everything happens for a reason Just as surely As we have different seasons Everyone once in a while We will stumble upon things That don't Appear as what they seem Whether in a good way or bad It doesn't really matter We just encounter them And they can make us happier or sadder We come across people Of all walks of life Some of them we keep close Because they make us feel alright Some we keep at a distance Because it just works better We don't mind seeing them from time to time But would much rather just write them a letter We come upon opportunities That we've long wanted Its turns out to be a great thing And we are glad we came upon it We learn in life There is triumph and tragedy There are ups and downs And we continue to try and figure out life's strategy So when you begin to ponder over things & people in your life Whether positive or negative, a friendship or a romance Keep in mind that all things happen for a reason It came upon you because of Chance
Wishing you all a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS...Be Safe, Be Joyous, Be Blessed...
