So after giving gentle warnings to slow down, my body finally thought, fuck it and sprung tonsilitis on me. The worst 3 days of my year so far. Anyway, I am slowly getting back into the groove of things so I thought it might be fun to go back to taking a lighter look at the world and stop being so critical of all the wrong business practices I come across. So today I will talk about the Kardashians, Football (soccer to the unconverted) and racism!

We might as well start with the heavy stuff, so Chelsea are alleging that a referee called one of their player something racist. And they are screaming from the roof tops calling for immediate action and baying for Mark Clattenberg’s head all at once. One would be forgiven for being sceptical at all this especially as it is the same Chelsea that spent millions postponing their own self-confessed racist from facing the same justice! Come on, really now you want expedient justice?. So my brother and I was thinking about what the ref might have said and we settled on “don’t be a monkey”. Now, some of you will say how dare we! but we are black like Mikel so we get a free pass on that but the real question is if the ref said “don’t be a monkey” to a black player is that being racist? We thought it was funny and when the laughter stopped my brother said many black people would find it a little upsetting. Any thoughts? Remember it was just us monkeying around!

So being at home suffering as I was means I was exposed to day time TV, it’s half term here so the kids are at home and the extremes of what I had to put up with were as bad as Fireman Sam on one end and The Kardashians on the other end. Wow, how do these people make money out of absolutely no substance at all. The Kardashians are obviously good business people because they have managed to fool the world much like some priests or pastors get 100000 people filling up churches on a sunday. I can’t imagine anything other than faith, blind faith, making anyone want to pay the  Kardashians money for that TV program. What were they paying for? It’s not even interesting, over exaggerated and pointless. I don’t hate them as people but please …..it’s all Ray J’s fault!!. Him, his joy stick and whoever planted the idea of getting out the video camerain his head. I suppose we might as well blame people’s fixation with watching other people have sex. If it wasn’t for all these things, there might have never been The Kardashians.

I am sure some of you have noticed that this blog entry is a bit old, the old body took too long to get back to working order so the writing went on hold for a bit. Anyway since the time I wrote this the racist ref has been exonerated by the Police confirming my earlier misgivings about the whole story. So today Arsenal played Tottenham and beat them 5-2 just like last season and just like last season all the talk leading up to the game was all about how Tottenham is now ahead of Arsenal but the numbers at the end of the day don’t lie, the gap is still vast and not looking likely to shrink anytime soon

More up to date news, Obama won the elections and so the race thing came up again and so some news paper I was reading yesterday went to great pains to show that despite Romney’s perceived favour from white Americans, the whites didn’t vote for him in 5 of the 9 swing states, so I think the whole think was just shit stirring as the Brits call it. It ain’t about the race dude, the people just weren’t filling your swag!
