This is a very interesting New York Times article referred to me by one of my mentors that shows unemployment for black college graduates has been rapidly increasing during these difficult economic times. Do you think these statistics were forcasted? What should we do about it? What can we do about it? Leave me your comments.

PaSsThEaLmOnDs.....


I do not want to see another almond for the next two months at least! During the week of Thanksgiving I was shooting a commercial and played a role with some fellow actors whom all figured that eating almonds and passing them around would be a breeze. Boy, did we have it coming! I could have sworn that crew had an infinite amount of those omega -3 having, raw , stale-tasting suckas. I was wondering why they initially made it clear to us that there were two bathrooms available to our "enjoyment." Apart from the almond binge, the shoot was absolutely hilarious and I would defiantely do it again....on an empty stomach!


I look forward to seeing the final product air on January...
