Thanks to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. for his contributions for society- "The time is always ripe to do what is right".
Starting with the Ms. America pageant winner on Saturday, is the dyed black hair, dark heavy eyeliner, just got back from a funeral look we're going for in the US? The celebratory red roses don't help. Yuk!
I was too engrossed in the LA Clippers Vs. LA Lakers game to care. With, makes it look way too easy front man Blake Griffith of the Clippers and power house Kobe Bryant of the Lakers, it was the basketball game to watch. Such an exciting rival game with the Clippers making it out on top. Clippers or Lakers fan? I vote Los Angeles!



Then, on Sunday, my Alma Mater, Indiana University basketball Vs. Ohio State rival beat the crimson right from the creme in a BIG way. Nonetheless, it was a good Sunday game for cracking open a beer with snacks to really kick back.

The Golden Globes were ok. The most noteworthy was for the silent movie called "The Artist". The old Hollywood 1920's Glam style with pops of color ruled the Red Carpet with the show taking place in Beverly Hills.

An eye opening exploration about the wealth of Qatar & it's impact on the middle east took place on one of my favs, 60mins. I had no idea Al Jazeera was the only televised News outlet for the middle eastern countries & the very significant role it played on uprisings in neighboring nations. A noteworthy vessel of change in the early second decade of the 21st Century.
Last, after an unexpected TV party with a winter shower rounding out the weekend, long awaited new episode of "The Good Wife" was on. A latecomer to this series, I'm a fan with it's strong cast & intriguing nuances of interwoven plots which best describe today's complexities using current discourse.
