Twitty Tuesday #12: West Coast Edition
Hello Jenny Marie PR Blog Readers! This is CKTwitty reporting from the West Coast! As you can probably tell from my tone of writing, I'm very happy and cheerful and it's all because I've been enjoying a lot of sunshine, the ocean and yummy Mexican food over here on the West in San Diego, California. I just have to say that San Diego has the BEST Mexican food ever! I have been craving an authentic pollo asado taco from a "mami papi" Mexican restaurant, since I moved out to New York last year, but I'm sad and disappointed to say that there are no good, cheap Mexican restaurants anywhere to be found in the state of New York! Take a look at this picture of a pollo asado taco from El Cotixan, which is the go-to spot if you are craving a burrito or taco after-hours and/or after the club scene when you get those wonderful drunk munchies we've all experienced. This restaurant is the perfect hang-out, it's open 24 hours, it serves the cheapest and best Mexican food in Southern California (according to many people), and you can get a huge stuffed taco for about 3 bucks, an enormous burrito for less than 5 dollars and super nachos, layered with flavorful carne asada, cheese and guacamole, for about 5 dollars. Something new that I tried at El Cotixan was a giant, battered fish taco, with spicy pink sauce, salsa, guacamole and cheese, for only 3 dollars! The taco just melts in your mouth and, to say the least, it's an "orgasmic" experience. The Mexican food here is so delicious and cheap that I find the idea of going to an expensive Mexican restaurant an absolute crime. I think it's horrible that we don't have Mexican food like this in New York and something needs to be done about this! Since I can't bring this deliciousness to y'all, here is a great guacamole and chips recipe you can make at home on your own:
* 2 Avocados
* 1 Chopped Tomato
* 1.5 Teaspoons Salt
* 1 Teaspoon Lemon Juice
Mix all ingredients together and eat with corn chips.
Enjoy!!!

Politikin with the G-Man: Nightline This is Why
G-Man's Statement: "I saw this clip from ABC News and it disgusted me. Yet another news piece on black women, specifically high achieving black women, being unable to find mates and how this is all the fault of black men. Why do these segments constantly put ALL the onus on black men and ignore that the interviewees are FUCKIN CRAZY?!?!?
One of the women said she JUST recently changed a REQUIREMENT that a man be 6'5" or above. ARE YOU FUCKIN SERIOUS?! Then another said she used to have a 50 requirement list. WTF? I struggle to list 7 prerequisites for a desirable woman!
1)Honest
2)Trustworthy
3)Intelligent
4)Physically Attractive
5)Well Rounded Personality (can be funny, laidback, outgoing, assertive, etc. whenever appropriate)
6)Reasonable (willing to compromise)
7)Financially/Professionally Stable
Those are seven dealbreakers for me right there. To me, if you can find a mate with those qualities that loves you as much as you love them, you should be ecstatic and hold on to them for as long as possible. What the fuck else is there? You're gonna turn down someone with all those qualities because they're 6'1"? Word????
If people are REALLY interested in coming up with solutions for the problem of the deteriorating black family, they'd be EVEN with criticism and address black men AND women. But AGAIN, no one called out these women for their ridiculousness and what THEY were doing to prevent themselves from finding happiness. If only black male problems are focused on, nothing will ever change."
Avatar = *Yawn X 10*
Ok...let the "I'm hating" comments begin. I had a chance to see Avatar over the weekend and my eyes became heavy like I was a 5 year old watching the last episode of TGIF.
The cinematography was excellent, special effects and all that jazz two thumbs up. It was just a little too long & boring to me.
Highlight: Zoe Saldana still looks hot even as a weird blue rasta alien. I prefer her role in "After Sex" when she gets down with Mila Kunis...If you haven't seen it...I suggest you do lol

Do you have Panty-Dropping Eyebrows?
Ok...let me explain. I was talking to my bro @MrGChristopher about this the other day and he was absolutely...confused. There are certain traits that can break or in this case MAKE a man more desirable. EYEBROWS. My sidekick @cktwitty got into the discussion and helped me pick out a few examples of men with "Panty-Dropping Eyebrows"
LET ME MAKE THIS CLEAR! PANTY-DROPPING EYEBROWS = NATURAL EYEBROWS
PLEASE REFRAIN FROM THE SUAVEMENTE WAXING/PENCIL THIN LOOK

Brittany Murphy will be Missed :(
My friend Erin told me the sad news about Brittany Murphy passing away yesterday. She was only 32 years old. I have a soft spot and I think most girls my age do too because we remember first seeing her in the cult classic we all love, Clueless
My gals & I all watched Clueless last night in memory of Brittany. Prayers go out to her family.
Is Asher Roth on Fire?!!!!
According to Popcrunch.com, Asher Roth may love something more than "college" *giggles*
Popcrunch.com is reporting that Asher may release an E! Special revealing that he is *clears throat* GAY! Personally, I am not surprised at this one at all. I always thought there was a fine line between frat boys & homosexuals.

About The Underground Clown
Frank Kozlowsky and his business partner Craig Mills (Brooklyn, NY Natives) wanted to create a clothing line that not only represented their personalities but also where they came from. Growing up in Coney Island, there was no surprise that owner Frank Kozlowsky would be influenced by clowns. The collision shop owner is widely known for his customize car designs and even got one of his custom cars featured on MTV. One day, he decided to turn some of his ideas into T-shirts.
“Why a clown? Clowns are often portrayed as emotionally unstable or even psychotic. The jester was the only one who dared talk back to a king. In fact that was his purpose, to think outside the box…” said Frank Kozlowsky.
The Underground Clown developed their very first T-shirt in early 2009 and is now quickly moving into hats and accessories. A portion of the proceeds will go to Mr. Cory “Face” Pelzer, a dear friend of owner Kozlowsky.
“A son, little brother, gentleman and dear friend, to numerous charities, funds and causes worldwide for a better world, and to add a bit of light to a world that is sometimes viewed as dark,” said Kozlowsky.

Twitty Tuesday #9: Cheap Eat of the Week Coco Roco
It's Twitty Tuesday! Today's topic is Cheap Eat of the Week!
If you're up for trying some South American food, then you should check-out this Peruvian spot: Coco Roco Restaurant. With two locations in Brooklyn, Coco Roco offers a delicious ethnic cuisine at a reasonable price. I highly recommend trying the tender half-chicken, which costs $7.00/half-chicken, along with a scrumptious side dish, such as the fried plantains, fries or yellow rice, in order to give you the ultimate Peruvian experience. This meal is sure to satisfy your taste buds and fill you up. For contact info, locations and menu options, check-out http://www.cocorocorestaurant.com/

Where to Grub in NYC?: Gyu-Kaku
I had the pleasure of going to Gyu-Kaku last night for dinner. I really enjoyed it. Gyu-Kaku specializes in Japanese Barbecue...meaning there is literally a grill in the middle of your table. The chefs prepare & season the meat but its up to you to cook it (which I don't mind considering I like my steak medium mmmmm). Dinner will run you about $100-$150 for 2 people.
Recommendations: DON'T GO THERE WITHOUT TRYING THE KOBE BEEF
Happy Birthday Jay-Z...My Fav Video...
