Throwback Thursday

Let me tell you something. Every generation has its shame, and ours is probably going to be the fact that placing your forearm on your forehead is a dance move and we dared to name it (The Dab). That, and anything Miley Cyrus has ever done. The folks who grew …

I miss the times when TV show theme songs were big. Back when the opening credits was about laying the groundwork, giving you some context or just telling you the background story. We spent the first 1.5 minutes of each show just jamming, singing along and getting ready for our …

Sometimes you want to do things to strengthen your business, like copyright and register your works, if you’re an artist. My friend, illustrator Veronica Marche Miller, went to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office’s website to register her art for protection and a dandy little prompt she got took her …

The fact that the early 2000s can now be considered “throwback” means we’re all old. Dambit. And remember the group Immature? Well, not them. I’m talmbout their heirs apparent: B2K. Omarion, J-Boog, Raz-B and Lil Fizz. Sounding like a Matrix character, a fake ass rapper, a flavor that was trying …

Remember when the team at Heinz suffered from a bout of temporary insanity and put out green ketchup for the American public to consume? Yeah, it was around Y2K (year 2000, for the babies who went “HUH?”). Actually, they had purple ketchup too but that’s close to red so I …

Back in my youth, I enjoyed video games just like everyone else. The last time I was really into it was way back when Sega Genesis was the IT console to have. You remember it. All-black, slightly glossy and hella awesome! When you turned it on, you’d here the sing-song …

Back when I was in high school, I was feeling myself because I didn’t have a bedtime anymore. As a natural night owl, I’d stay up til wee hours of the early night (like midnight) watching TV. That was when I got introduced to Miss Cleo the Psychic. Nothing says …
