How To Fight A Traffic Ticket

Geez, I received my 2nd moving violation recently. The first, when I was 18, and most recently, by a darn camera. I'm still mad about it. I mean, atleast if I'd received the ticket from a male officer I could tried smiling or batting my eyes a bit in an attempt to get out of it, but a camera.

Here are some tips that could possibly help you avoid an appearance in court for the red light you know you ran straight through, as well as other violations.

Mel Leiding, an attorney from Anaheim, California and author of a 53-page guide titled "How to Fight Your Traffic Ticket and Win," says he would rather be mugged than get a traffic ticket. Why? Getting mugged is faster, cheaper and has no long-term repercussions, such as increased insurance premiums, loss of a license or being forced to attend traffic school. According to HowStuffWorks.com, millions of traffic tickets are issued annually in the United States with many tickets costing $100 or higher. It's a billion dollar business. If you pay the ticket by mail, you're admitting guilt and will pay the maximum fine. In addition, the ticket will be part of your DMV record for three years. Here are the only two legitimate ways you might be able to wiggle out of it. The key word is "might." Good luck! (continue)

Light Skinned Flashback: Christopher Williams on MTV's Uptown Unplugged

After running into Garfield Bright of Shai last week, I had a flashback to the hot 90's music scene and the gorgeous men who would kill the ladies softly with their songs, and looks too.

You can flashback with me. Here's a clip of Christopher Williams during his performance on Uptown Unplugged, taped back in '93.

IAMHIPHOP.COM PRESENTS: SpitFire with Kool Moe Dee

Finally, clips from the IAMHIPHOP movement. Are y'all ready? Late last year I was flooding people's in-boxes with invites to IAMHIPHOP.com's weekly SPITFIRE show, hosted by the always thought provoking, knowledge kickin' rap pioneer, Kool Moe Dee. I observed the show as being a cross between Politically Incorrect and Meet The Press, with flavorings of "all things hip hop".

According to Moe Dee, the show has been picked up by a cable network (which will be named soon) and the shows are being prepared to air in the near future. Yes, the movement must be televised, anything else would be uncivilized....Uhh oh, check out my melody.... LOL. Watch the clip.

Kids Like "Good" Music Too- Watch Them Rock Out.


This is what happens when children gather together to rock out to good music-only one member of the crew manages to do the "booty dance", as opposed to "all" of the them. You know you've attended a kid's bday party and witnessed them happily demonstrate "drop it like it's hot 2008", with no shame. This music doesn't even come close to inspiring them to do such a thang.

Seriously, I adore this clip. This clip was recorded by a kindergarten teacher, who allowed her children to express themselves to the tune of PJ Morton's, How We Were.

Kids want the feel good music too.

Preview music from PJ's upcoming cd via his Myspace page...love me some him.
