Happy Birthday To The FLOTUS!

In addition to today being the Dr MLK Jr, day holiday, it's also the day that Michelle Lavaughn Robinson Obama arrived on the planet .   The Princeton and Harvard Law grad, mother of two beautiful girls, happily married wife to President Barack and the statuesque and glamorous First Lady of the United States was born in Chicago in 1964.

Happy birthday Madame First Lady!    May you have many more.

It's Sade's Birthday!

Happy birthday to Helen Folasade Adu, known to the rest of the world as simply Sade.

Y'all know how much I love her music and wasn't letting today pass without at least doing some kind of shout out birthday post to her.

Happy Birthday Tona!

Had to give a TransGriot shout out to one of my fave musicians on her birthday.

You know I've been chronicling Tona Brown for a while on the blog,.  She's not only an accomplished and talented classical musician, she is evolving into one of our community's up and coming leaders as well.

So I couldn't let today slide by without wishing her a very happy birthday.   

May this one be peaceful, low stress and full of blessings.

I also hope and pray that the upcoming New Year be a blessing filled one for you as well.that not only puts more money in your purse, but brings you one step closer to fulfilling all your career and personal goals.

Happy birthday Tona!

Happy Birthday Flo Jo

Today would have been the 51st birthday of Florence Delorez Griffith Joyner, known to the world as Flo Jo, who was born on this date in 1959.

The Los Angeles born sister not only brought the glam factor to women's international track and field (athletics) competition, but the world record class speed and talent as well.

Her 100m and 200m world records still haven't been touched.by female sprinters, and she was a once in a generation talent.

Rest in peace FloJo.   You are missed by your legions of fans around the world.
