... sachey chantey ;)

Once upon a time...
There was a little black girl
In the bruster projects of Detroit, Michigan
At 15, she was spotted by an ebony fashion fair talent scout
And her modeling career took off

You better work!

You better work! (cover girl)
Work it, girl! (give us a twirl)
Do your thing on the runway

Work! (supermodel)
You better work it girl (of the world)
Wet your lips and makin love to the camera

I have one thing to say: "sachey, chantey, chantey, chantey, chantey chantey chantey"

Work! (turn to the left)
Work! (now turn to the right)
Work! (sachey chantey)

I have one thing to say...
"You better work!"

Artist: RuPaul
Song: Supermodel (You Better Work)
Album: Supermodel Of The World

Fallaces sunt rerum species

Damn, if only my modeling career didn't end on the note that I wasn't a 6'7" black male transvestite. Or that I didn't host my own talk show/ comedy sketch show on VH1. Perhaps it was the simple fact I was never billed as "The First Face of M.A.C." Sadly, I never built up to what he(she) calls the "Glamazon Look", hence ending my short lived career as the "Under 5'6" Macy's runway model (kids section) for the special and gifted." If RuPaul can write an autobiography entitled Lettin It All Hang Out, then I should be able to pen one entitled "Keeping It All In & Hidden." (Quite opposite of David Sedaris writing about a do-it-yourself father who does at home surgery to save a couple of bucks in Barrel Fever) David's collection of hysterical essays & short stories mirrors my own sense of humor and style of absurd writing. Picked it up at Second Story Books in Bethesda about a week ago. Funny shit.

Camera phones are quite the nifty little gadgets. Not only can I take really horrible pictures (like the ones of myself on the top of the blog), but I can use it to decode the Sunday Post's crossword puzzle. Ok, not really. But I could use all the help I can get with that "Sphinx" of a weekly word teaser. I actually have other risque pictures I can post, but I will have to charge everyone a one time fee of $49.99. Fee entitles you to a username & password and unlimited visits. No pesky ad pop ups. There'll be tons of other things "popping up". I've always wondered about those websites. Tax break for at home personal business, perhaps? Can I get away with lingerie as a deductible? ;)

THIS JUST IN:
The upcoming movie Ladder 49 with John Travolta, Joaquin Phoenix, Robert Patrick, and Morris Chestnut will be out October 1, 2004.

I submitted as an "extra" but was asked to play a bartender in one of the flashback scenes. I accepted without hesitation, of course. The casting department said they liked my "look"; whatever the hell that means to the filming gods. It was about a year ago when they filmed most of their exterior scenes in/around Baltimore, MD. (Volunteer firemen parade, burning buildings, etc.) Let's cross our fingers that you'll be able to spot me on the big screen. I pray my ass doesn't touch the cutting room floor.
