Last week I appeared as a guest along with Carmen Dixon on the Kevin Ross Show.

Original Air Date: 10/21/2009 10:00 PM EST

TOPIC: Louisiana Justice Of The Peace Keith Bardwell refused to marry an interacial couple and still believes that despite violating the constitution, this offensive decision is a good one. Boss Ross is not having it! Plus, some people in the blogosphere you need to know!

Ventured out to the Guggenheim Museum’s 50th anniversary yesterda

it was FREE! as opposed to the regular $18 ticket price, especially considering you CANNOT take any pics of the art!

Tips to all NYC museums-

1.  Offer all your programs as downloadable PDF’s-I’m going to end up tossing it in the trash before I get on the subway no matter how slick it looks.

2.   Offer a podcast of the audio tours-do you REALLY think I’m going to rent your little wack device for $7

Frank Lloyd Wright is a genius or a lunatic.

I went past the same exhibit twice from a completely different path.

I viewed  the works of Kandinsky and eyed 2 Picasso’s.

Being there wanted me to see movie The International, the scene where they try to kill Clive Owen and destroy this place with gunfire!

I then went to the The Met with @thefatapple but it was closing and there is also NO picture taking there-I will go there for a longer visit when I load the app on my blackberry that shuts off the shutter sound

I saw this pic OUTSIDE the museum which was on sale for $10 with the frame-@thefatapple said this pic of President Obama as The Joker says so many things on so many levels.

Today I was on a panel  at a conference that was held at Norfolk State University titled-

Restoration has been a fixture in central Brooklyn and Bed-Stuy since 1969. It’s a place I have worked and visited to see/hear/create art.

It’s on the come back, like a good LL song or  Jay-Z album circa 2003. Come enjoy an amazing show and learn/re-learn what the Plaza has to offer

On Saturday, Bed-Stuy Alive!’s first day RESTORATION ROCKS is pulling out some serious talent:

Toshi Reagon
Blitz the Ambassador
and John Forte
with Jessie Boykins III and Tess putting in the work.
Hosted by Faro Z

It’s going to be a sick FREE show.

No matter what the contents of the place and NEW renovation, it is still NOT worth the $20 admission price.

This does not include the $3+tax bottled water.

It is best to go on FREE on Fridays after 6pm  (Thank you TARGET!)

Got inspired and snapped some pics of Monet, Basquiat and more….
