Within a week of Memphis, Tennessee's worst mass murder, a culprit has been caught. One of the surviving children was able to identify "Uncle Jesse" as the man who murdered their family. I then saw on the news that Uncle Jesse was among those at the crime scene on the night the bodies were found. It is unbelievable just how insane he had to have been. What reason did he have to even be there? Was he trying to find out who didn't die? Was he taking inventory of his handiwork? I also saw him on the telephone while leaving. I wonder who was he talking to and what was he talking about? Was he comforting a relative who cried "who could do this to those babies" or was he plotting with someone to make sure that the surviving children never said a word? The issue I have with "Uncle Jesse" is why was he even free in the first place?!? For those who have not heard of "Uncle Jesse's" background, here's a little bit of information: ...

It's been a while since I darkened the verbal doorways with some amusing situations. The Memphis Crew knows that there was too much negativity goings on to be too bubbly, but I'm good now. Not much has popped off in the last few, but I'll telleth what I knoweth! *Robert Downey, Jr. goes Black* Dude is going to play a black man in this movie called "Tropic Thunder". He already said it won't be Blackface or "Soul Man" Black, but convincing black. If he turns out to look like C. Thomas Howell did in that movie, I'm slapping three people. Either way, the movie stars Jack Black and Ben Stiller, so God only knows. Right now, it's testing good with real black people. Power to the people. *Bai Ling is a damn fool* This ass here got arrested for stealing two magazines and a pack of batteries. In case you're wondering who this odd broad is, she played in "My Baby's Daddy" and "She Hate Me". I think she mattered elsewhere t...

Memphis has experienced one of the most traumatic experiences in my 25 years. For those who aren't familiar with what happened, here is the information that has been uncovered: *Six people were found dead in a rented home on 722 Lester Street. *Of those six, four were adults and two were toddlers. *Three children are still alive: ages 7 years, 4 years, and 10 months. *The bodies were found Monday evening. Now, there has been information uncovered about the man who rented the home, 30 year old Cecil Dotson. Cecil has already had the privilege of having his criminal record spilled across the internet. As a matter of fact, he was charged in January for aggravated robbery and was due in court on Monday morning. There is yet any confirmation as to whether or not he is one of the victims (as of the time I'm writing this at 16:45 on 3/4/08), but his sister said he had been in the house. What hurts me the most is the fact that as of now, nobody has come forward with any information...

Hello... I'm not going to pull up my chair to the window like half of my co-workers to watch the owl fight with the blackbirds. Frankly, I'm waiting on the loud THUD from another bird flying head first into the window. Now THAT shit's funny. ANYHOO, I'm going to share some tidbits o' news and such. It's been a pretty slow week in entertainment, so I'll share what I got. *New "Dancing with the Stars" lineup* Cristian de la Fuente (?), Mario (come on and braid my hair, man), Penn Jillette (magician), Steve Guttenberg (best known for "Police Academy" and something else), Kristi Yamaguchi (the Olympic skatin' broad), Monica Seles (Tennis player), Jason Taylor (NFL), Shannon Elizabeth ("American Pie"), Adam Carolla (somewhat funny guy from "Loveline"), Marissa Jaret Winokur (um, you may need to Wikipedia that chick), Marlee Matlin (she's hearing impaired and won an Oscar for playing someone hearing impaired), and P...

Read this article. I swear, I can't make this up: (MEMPHIS, TN 2/18/2008) A love triangle turns violent. Two twenty-something women fighting over the same guy. One pulls out a gun and starts shooting. But in this case the guy the women were fighting over is barely old enough to get a driver's permit. The shooting happened the day after Valentine's Day at the Cypress Garden Apartments. "We're starting to get cases on women just like anything else," said Lt. Nathan Berryman with the Memphis Police Dept. "It's not male exclusive crime anymore." Police say 20-year-old Cherry Wright tried to kill her boyfriend's ex during a drive-by shooting. According to the report, she rolled up to 23-year-old Lakeviette Smith's apartment, pointed a gun out the window and started firing at her. The guy they're fighting over was behind the wheel. He's only 15 years old. "He could be 15, he could be 20. You have conflict between people that doesn...

Welcome to Tam's Entertainment News. I figured I'd get a little ingenious with this whole thing. First and fo'most, I need a check-in from the Memphis, TN & DeSoto County crews!!! That was one hell of a storm last night, wasn't it? On the serious tip, we lost about 50 lives last night, with four of them in Shelby County. Please keep the victim's families in your prayers. Also, let's have a moment of silence for the Hickory Ridge Mall and the Taco Bell across the street: Mmph. They were the only one to actually get my burrito right! On to the entertainment. *Michael Jackson's kids* Here's a picture of two of his kids without the masks. I want someone to tell me that they look just like him. Seriously. Who be the pappy? *Brit goes back to the psych ward...and gets out again* Yeah, everyone's favorite Celebutard is officially in and out the psych ward. See, what had happened was..this chick lost her mind again and got put on a "5150 hold...

a nice Valentine's Day poem *ahem* I am not poetic Nor do I proclaim to be I guess I should have more words to say But I don't, unfortunately I look into your eyes Looking for beauty and light Instead all I see is one eye looking straight And the other looking to the right I look deeply at your smile Desiring warmth and hope However I see you left your partial at home And all I see is the back of your throat I reach out for a passionate embrace Craving a tingle or rush Unfortunately, I find your Axe body spray Is covering up barnyard must I reach out to hold your hands In hopes of feeling secure and safe Now I'm at Dr. Champion's getting ointment From when you put those rough sumbitches on my face Baby, I know I ain't poetic I have not one line of prose to utter However, I think I am a little gifted But you are just one ugly motherfucker -T.
