Which is Better? Full or Partial Feeds?

February 16th, 2006 / No Comments » / by Cherryl

I’m re-doing my site. Wondering, are summaries better than full feeds? Some feel like offering full feeds does not drive visitors to your site. But others feel offering full feeds is more user friendly and convenient. My goal with blogging has always been just to exercise my free speech. Work out my thoughts on race relations, politics, etc., in a way that may reach/affect someone who may have similar viewpoints. I also hope to spark discussion with some of my comments…and I think I have no problem there.

Ultimately, my goal is to be heard by whomever cares to read my rants and occasional bits of good info, in a way that is easiest for them. Question is, what do most folks prefer and why? Full feeds or summaries? I have a feed reader that allows me to see both so I’m impartial…

I finally have the start of a gallery. Step one in my long overdue site revamp.

Below is one of the photos on the page. It is a test shot in low light of a digital camera with no flash. There are 14 more pics in the gallery, some digital some not.

Jimi Izrael Thinks Cheating Equals Being a Man

February 3rd, 2006 / No Comments » / by Cherryl

In his January 31, 2006 entry, Coretta Scott King: The Original Ride or Die Chick, Jimi gives praise to her for basically sticking by Martin’s side, even through the infidelities Martin imposed upon their marriage.

He says:

“Martin was a man first–imperfect in every way– and Mrs King knew it. Before it became stylish, she was his wife: Dat Chick: down for whatever. In an age where women think they can tell men how to be men, they need to check the recipe.”

So “the recipe” I guess includes being a doormat. Not that she was, but any woman these days who knows of her man’s infidelities and stays with him, not only is dumb as hell IMHO (cause any woman, no matter how busted, can *always* get another man), but is exposing herself to a myriad of diseases. No my dear, rubbers don’t stop everything. I just don’t understand why a man or woman would get married if they knew they couldn’t be faithful.

Durhamite Minister Paul Scott Faces Off With Hannity and Colmes!

January 31st, 2006 / No Comments » / by Cherryl

I just watched Durham’s own Minister Paul Scott on Hannity & Colmes. He was talking about his campaign to end Black History Month because in general the “Black History” we are taught starts with slavery and ends with Oprah Winfrey. No thanks.

Min. Paul Scott also advocates for Blacks to not participate in Black History celebrations sponsored by White corporations. Alan and Sean kept asking him “Why are you trying to divide Americans” etc. They were like “Isn’t this *our* country, aren’t we all Americans” and Paul Scott was like, “No, America was built by Whites for White people.”!! Then Min. Scott went on to say that of course Whites should participate in learning about Black history – if they want to read about Nat Turner and Denmark Vessey!!

Then one of them was like “How many people are with you on this?” Min. Scott was trying to tell them that most Black people are really tired right about now of the Whitewashed version of Black history.They were both trying to play it off as if to say “Yeah, right.”
