Filter Party SXSW 08

Laughable, obvious, but we all have fallen prey...

I can honestly say I don't browse Oprah blogs, however, CNN and Oprah are bed buddies and I found this article when I was reading the news. I find that I can sometimes be retarded and miss obvious red flags when dating someone, it's all hard to figure at at the time, but after the fact we all have the "Aha" moment.

Anyway, check out this article, it's cool but I feel it applies more to gals that are a tad bit older, so hand on to it for future failed relationships in the future.

Jovovich Hawk Target's GO line

I was talking to a friend the other day and we were discussing our instinctive infatuation with Target's GO line, however, as the line had more and more of a following trends started to look very much the same. For instance, we look at GO line as an affordable way of being stylish and an inexpensive way to buy those items or lines that either we could not afford or we shouldn't be spending our money on anyway. The last few pirate/poet inspired blouses have looked like variations of themselves regardless of who designs them. Aside from that, the fabric looks cheap, the threading looks like you could use it as cheese cloth and so on.
The biggest surprise came when I saw the new Jovovich Hawk/ GO line collaboration. It's very young, it's very hip and yes, it's very LA but not as douchey as you may think. It's a spring fashion line and it's inexpensive enough, yet fashion forward enough for me to advocate for.

My personal favorites are the high waisted denim for under 40 bucks, and the short sleeve scoop neck. Nothing says, "Come and get it boys", like a deep cut blouse just in time for the spring.

American Drug War

It's a pretty fair and safe assumption to say that we've been touched by drugs in one way or another, whether you personally enjoy them or know someone who has been the victim of addiction, the way the government treats drug usage in America seems to be outdated or detached.

The DARE programs from the 90's didn't seem to work well, other than guilt it didn't really make kids any stronger in abstaining. I get that early exposure to drugs is bad, and children need to have a safe environment. I also understand that drug trafficking kills hundreds of people monthly, on an international level, but what I am opposed to is the millions of dollars wasted on drug wars that seem to be going no where.

The way in which we incarcerate people for drug use is not just inhumane, but also very costly. I would prefer it if my tax dollars didn't go towards incarcerating drug users, with solely drug crimes.
