I’m going on a brain-candy fast…

I know way too much about Jesse James right now. I know that his alleged mistress is covered in tattoos. I know that in spite of his unfortunate choice of hairstyle, he is apparently chased by women everywhere he goes. I know that he’s still wearing his wedding ring (as of a few days ago at least) and that he feels remorseful for what he’s done. And I even know that he’s lost his dog a couple times through all of this, but luckily he/she/it was found and has returned home. Which is good, because he needs a friend right now…
And there are other, really important things I know. Like that Corey Haim’s funeral was last week and that someone said the city of Toronto would pay for it but then the city said, “um, no…”. And that his Lost Boys pal Corey Feldman got a tattoo in remembrance of him the week of his funeral. Or was it Corey Feldman who died and Corey Haim who got the tattoo? That sounds cold, I know. But I have no true connection to these people (do you?) and it’s all starting to run together.

About twelve minutes after enthusiastically posting “GOOD HAIR ROCKS!” on my facebook page, I came to my senses and quickly deleted.
I’d just enjoyed Chris Rock’s HBO documentary about the African-American hair product industry, Good Hair, and wanted to get the word out.

Clearly, those are two very frighteningly different posts.
The genesis of Rock’s surprisingly professional inquiry into the black hair industry came when one of his young daughters came to him and asked, “Daddy, how come I don’t have good hair?” His investigation took him through Greensboro, NC, Atlanta, India & Los Angeles where he learned, from men and women, about natural hair, relaxer, perms, weaves and more.
