| 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. For as long as she lived, she had no idea there was anything sexual or seedy about being called "Lolita". |
| 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. |

The invitations were distributed yesterday at a big to-do Marvel Comics made about the impending affair.
Per Newsarama.com:Marvel Comics just concluded a press conference to promote the upcoming wedding of the Black Pather and Storm. Participants in the conference included writers Reginald Hudlin and Eric Jerome Dickey, along with the usual Marvel staffers.
And as the accompanying “invitation” details, the build-up to the Wedding will start in March’s Black Panther #14 by Hudlin and artist Scot Eaton, and the February-debuting Storm six-issue limited series by Dickey and David Yardin.
Also part of the mix is the May Marvel Milestones: Black Panther and Storm collecting Marvel Team-Up #100 and 2000’s Black Panther Vol. 2 #26, and a June Uncanny X-Men Annual #1 by Chris Claremont, billed as an “All-new wedding tie-in focusing on Storm’s past”.
The event then cumulates in July’s Black Panther #18, “The Wedding”. This is the coolest part of the invitation:Standing up for the groom will be Reginald Hudlin & Scott Eaton
Giving away the bride will be Eric Jerome Dickey & David Yardin  I'm so excited!!! I'm am soooo going!!! Umma get me some new shoes (we love new shoes!!!), and some African garb, maybe in a nice camel color so I don't upstage the bride, and a big ol' Erykah Badu headwrap, and a, and a, and a...huh? What? You mean I can't actually GO to the wedding? Oh. It's happening in the comic book? Oh. Well, can I still get the new shoes?
This is so awesome. Eric and Reggie, both huge fans of comics, are making history.
Go 'head, brothermen!! Do the damn thang!!
