Last week certain news outlets were reoporting on this woman in Connecticut who is divorcing her husband and contesting a post-nuptial agreement she signed.  Her beef?  $43 million dollars is not enough to live on.  She spends $53,000 a week and at that pace, she’ll burn through the money in about 15 years.  After I [...]

[DISCLAIMER: Before anyone goes ballistic about the title of this post, let me explain.  "Our Nig" is a book written in 1859 by Harriet Wilson and is considered to be one of the first novels written by an African-American woman.  Read further and you'll see why I thought it was an appropriate title for this [...]
