Danny Glover

Wikipedia is an amazing example of what happens when collaboration goes right.
Urbandictionary.com is when collaboration goes unfiltered.
I enjoy both greatly.

And if anybody knows what a Danny Glover is feel free to inform me.
yes i know I have a typo, but I'm too lazy to change it.

Black History Month

If you ask most people when Black History Month is, a majority of people will know the answer. If you ask a majority of people what comes to mind when they conjure up thoughts of black history and the answers will most likely follow like so:

4 out of 10 will bring up Martin Luther King Jr.
3 out of 10 will bring up Malcolm X.
2 out of 10 will bring up Harriet Tubman.
1 out of 10 will bring up Rosa Parks.

This is fair enough. But ask these same people to name somebody not named Martin, Malcolm, Harriet, or Rosa and the answers will most likely follow like so:

9 out of 10 will bring up "that guy who invented peanut butter" [George Washington Carver]
1 out of 10 will bring up some other person.

For some reason, I feel that there is more to black history than peanut butter and people you learn about in your second grade elementary school class.

Spare any change

If you've ever walked down South University, you have undoubtedly seen Ronnie before. He's a fixture of Dennison archway much like the Star of David with the masonic symbol in it is. Whether you think Ronnie gives the town of Ann Arbor character, or you think he's a nuisance; I fall into the latter category, Ronnie is more or less a local celebrity. And since I haven't seen Crazy Horse in a long time, I think Ronnie is the most recognizable local celebrity we have.
