The CEO’s-blog

I’m sure you’ve all heard by now about the Muslim soldier who yelled “Allahu Akbar” before opening fire at a military base in Ft. Hood, Texas yesterday.

Major. Nidal Malik Hasan, a 39 year old psychiatrist and Muslim soldier who didn’t want to be deployed to Iraq and who had tried for several years to get out of the military, went on a shooting spree; killing 13 and wounding 30 others before being apprehended and taken into custody.

Ft. Hood is the nation’s largest active army base, equipped with its own city within a city. My brother Timmy was stationed at Ft. Hood, Texas after returning from his overseas duty in Seoul, Korea. The 340-square-mile post is home to more than 65,000 soldiers and their families - and thousands of civilian employees.

Loyal reader of the CEO’s blog - Keisha, sent us photos of singer Beyonce’s cellulite performance at the EMA’s.

I don’t know why people are so shocked by this. You can work-out and still have cellulite. Beyonce is a thick boned chick and all the work-outs in the world won’t trim the fat that’s positioned in those thighs.

My loyal reader is becoming a pain in my royal ass! With additional pictures pointing out the cheese on Beyonce’s thighs.

I’ve advised the “Little missy” to get over it! Beyonce is just like us, with imperfection and flaws.

I’m being hit with real stories to post and this is the end of the Beyonce pics.

Was in Chinatown at………………………………………..Joe’s Shanghai. Chinese cuisine with three locations; Flushing, Queens, Midtown New York and Chinatown.

In a last minute impromptu, this longtime friend and fellow of mine, whose name is Cole (in this post), chose this small Chinatown location.

On approach to the restaurant, I could see by the long line overflowing out the door, that this place was packed! Hungry patrons were anxiously waiting to be seated. I thought to myself, “How in the hell did he find this spot”. However, Cole had us seated in less than 5 minutes, I’m sure this was due to his clout with the owners.

This small spot in Chinatown, rated in a Zagat survey and the New York Times best restaurant guide, Joe’s is famous for their “soup dumpling”, little dumplings served in a bamboo basket. As I observed the crowded tables, full with communal diners (Yes this restaurant is communal), everybody was ordering these soup dumplings served piping hot in bamboo steamers.

Of course I didn’t have those (the soup dumplings), as they are a little pork meatball, surrounded by a meaty broth and wrapped in dough. But that was OK, because Cole had ordered them (the pork dumplings) and that was just the beginning. 

First up, were these “Scallion Pancakes” that were off the hook! I’ve never had these before and was slow to dig in with these “chopsticks” sitting in front of me. We had the “sauteed string beans” that were glazed with garlic. I had the home-style bean curd (Tofu) with vegetables. My pal Cole had, a sauteed shrimp dish (and the shrimp were large) and I can’t remember if it was served with vegetables?? I know he had this loaded Chinese rice dish, with everything in it, I mean this rice was packed with ham, eggs, pork, chicken and shrimp. I’m sure I can’t remember because, I was too busy looking at all of these interesting food choices served on large platters. All of “Joe’s Shanghai’s” dishes are served in large portions.

So…….If you’re ever in the city and anywhere near one of their three locations, “Joe’s Shanghai” is the place for authentic chinese cuisine.

Based on the menu, I’d say the cost is reasonable but I didn’t foot the bill so I’m not entirely sure….

Look at the aging Diva!

The legendary singer was spotted out and about with the surgical tape still adhered to her temples, after recently having plastic surgery done on her face.

My girl is aging gracefully and still look beautiful to me, but I must admit, my mom is about four years older than Diana and she look way better.

This woman’s name is Brigitte Harris and she’s awaiting sentence on Riker’s island for mutilating her father and killing him.

The Queens woman cut off her father’s penis and burned it on the stove and is now facing 15 years in prison. Harris revealed to the New York daily news that her father started raping her, when she was just 3 years old.

Harris lured her father to her apartment two years ago, handcuffed his ass to a chair and stuck a towel in his mouth. She then cut off her father’s penis with a scalpel and cooked it. Harris’s father choked to death with the towel being stuffed in his mouth.

Harris wanted to stop him from abusing other small children in her family. When she told other family members about her father’s abuse, they refused to believe her, one aunt even said to her, “No matter what he did, he’s still your father”. What a sick and twisted thing to say, to someone who’s been a victim of incest.

With the movie “Precious” being released tomorrow in theatres worldwide, Harris said, “People need to start talking about incest, people don’t want to believe it happens but it does”.

Will sit his fat ass in the Governors seat come January 1, 2010.

I’m not being cruel but Jon Corzine came short of calling Christie everything but that, with a heavy rotation of notorious ads during his smear campaign against the former prosecutor.

In a candid conversation with my mom last night, it was in her opinion that Jon Corzine’s campaign committee didn’t work hard enough for his re-election; with so many poor decisions made while in office, Corzine’s camp took this election for granted. Corzine thought, President Barack Obama would be his secret weapon for an easy win but his strategy didn’t work.

New Jersey pays the highest property taxes in the country and last night the state of NJ dumped Jon Corzine for the overweight new blood of Chris Christie.

In the meantime and in a New York minute, Michael Bloomberg is shocked by his narrow win for a 10th term in office, against William C. Thompson. But with sell-out ministers such as Calvin O Butts III and Floyd H. Flake in his pocket, Bloomberg was sure of a landslide win.

But according to a New York Times article dated October 28, 2009, the right reverend Calvin Butts, wrestled with the decision on whether or not to endorse his long-time pal, William Thompson.

I guess the almighty dollar won that wrestling match, because Bloomberg gave a $1 million dollar donation to Butts Church’s development corporation, with a solid promise of more to come. So how could Rev. Butts turn down $1 million dollars with a promise of more to come. Guess the purchase price was worth trading in the friendship and support to William Thompson.

New York city’s most powerful black ministers wasn’t about to endorse William Thompson. What! Are you kidding me…..These black prominent leaders of the cloth, stay gathered around their master’s throne, to be appointed to city boards and committees; with Bloomberg’s assistance they purchase property and win zoning concessions for their own projects. So you know they weren’t about to risk such favors and money for the principals of their own integrity.

Michael Bloomberg is serving yet another term as mayor of New York city because he has purchased the city with a price. The streets are paved with his green and all roads lead to those who are willing to sell their souls, their voice and their integrity. And for these ministers, this Jesus has paid it all, only this Christ is an independent billionaire.

The actress was graphic in her interview with “Men’s Health Magazine” and based upon her views, the readers are saying, “No wonder Dwayne Wade left his wife”.

Ms. Gabrielle had this to say: “If’s it’s a choice between a man who gives flowers and a man who enjoys giving oral, most women will take the oral and it’s free; oral sex is recession proof”.
