The Lo Zone

A groovy place in cyberspace run by author Lolita Files. Come on in. Bring some Pepsi.

 
Lo Fun Fact #1
"Lolita Files" is my real name. It is not a pen name, as incredible as that may seem. There are plenty of Files family members and people who have known me for years capable of validating this. As for the "Lolita" part, my mother named me after the movie based on Nabokov's book, although she saw or read neither. To this day, she has no idea what a "Lolita" is.
Lo Fun Fact #2
I love fried chicken and fabulous shoes. If you ever want to get on my good side, send Popeye's or Mr. Chicken (my favorite spot in Cleveland) and a pair of Christian Louboutins.
Lo Fun Fact #3
Never show up unannounced or without a Pepsi (preferably Pepsi Jazz Caramel Cream). Better yet, how about not show up at all?
Lo Fun Fact #4
I hate the telephone. Don't get mad if I don't call you. I don't call anyone. Don't call me asking why I don't call. Just don't call, okay?
Lo Fun Fact #5
I love the internet!!! I love communicating through the internet!!! You can e-mail me and odds are I'll e-mail you right back (if I'm not in the middle of a major project). Makes up for my hangup about the phone, doesn't it? See, I'm not so bad after all!!!
Lo Fun Fact #6
I can't stand IMing. Please don't IM me. You will get the cold shoulder. I don't like giving people the cold shoulder, so please don't put me in that position.
Lo Fun Fact #7
I have four five six wonderful, slap-happy dogs, a bird (some kind of dove/pigeon mix), and a cat, all of whom I love to pieces. If you meet me and ask me about my dogs, bird, and cat, we'll be instant friends. If you meet me and ask me why the f*ck I have four five six dogs, a bird, and a cat, see the above fun fact for how I will respond.

Why not start with the obvious?

Bobby D's shown more black women love than Michael Jackson, Prince, and Tiger Woods combined!!! And he's no dilettante, either. There's none of that creepy black woman fetishism that only involves sneaking peeks at late night videos on BET, having your subscription to King magazine sent to a P.O. box, and dipping your pen in 'ink' under the cover of won't-go-public darkness. No sirree. Ol' Bobby D believes in making honest women of his nubian lovelies. He'll marry one of us in a heartbeat and sport us like the queens we are.

So give it up for the real Italian Stallion. He's been keeping black women satisfied for more than half a century.

Attaboy, BD!!! You earned that Oscar (plus the other one you got).

It wasn't an easy role, but you dared to cross the color line way early, before it was chic to do so. Keep it coming. Us black girls love it!!!
