In My Write Mind

You know how most shows hit their stride during their third season, making the first two irrelevant or just plain dull by comparison?

You also know how once an actor signs a long term deal, his skills start to fade and they rest on their laurels and the show’s quality dwindles ever-so-slightly with each passing episode?

Yeah, well … that WON’T be me. Nope. I refuse to get lazy and feel too comfortable in one spot. I refuse to let myself or my readers down. I promise to stay on my toes and stay on the cutting edge.

Da hell does all of this mean? Glad you asked. LOL

It means that, just as was done after Season One — when along with some of my blogger friends, we started a “blog-elution,” moving over to the relatively new community known as Blogsome one year ago — it’s time for this season to end. And oh, what a season it was!!! Twelve of the fullest months of my lifetime to date.

Now, though, it’s time to place my thoughts onto a new tablet, mark some new territory so as not to get lax and take that time for granted.

Gotta keep it fresh. Gotta keep it interesting. Gotta keep it going.

Put it this way: If my first season was the WB, and my second was UPN, this coming season I’m gonna combine the innocence of Year One with the depth of Year Two and form my own personal CW (where, just like the fledging network, I promise to only talk about black people on Sunday evenings … LOL).

Look for me. Fresh look, fresh thoughts, even a fresh new name … but still the same ole Will. Ain’t nothin’ gonna change but the address.

If I were you, I’d ride with me. I’m just hitting my stride.

For info on where Season Three will be airing in your area, please leave your email address in the comments section and I promise to hook you up.

Much respect, my peoples. See you at the launch party!

Peace!

All righty, here we go. Another year, another BET Awards show. Another chance for us to see the network put on its pomp and circumstance, welcoming the best in music, athletics and entertainment to the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles, California.

And of course, I was there watching, riding solo this year, covering it all in what has become an annual running diary. I had to. I only watch BET a few times a year, mostly one Saturday a month around noon to see which aspiring rapper is holding court on “Freestyle Fridays.”

And then the awards show. That’s it.

Not sure what to expect as I settle in for the evening. They promised that this one will be the best one yet. We shall see. Ready? Herrrrre we go!

It’s almost here. And despite how tired I am today, I can feel the energy of what is promising to be one of the best summers ever! It’s gonna be ON FIYAH! And I’m just putting you all on notice!

“Can You Feel It?” *ha-ha-pfff-ha ha haaaa ha ha pfff* (yeahhh … in case you were wondering, that was my lame attempt at beat-boxing … lol)

Remember that song from the Fat Boys? Those were the days. Sigh.

Let’s go … on to the “Knows” for June …
