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. 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 (although obviously I can't eat fried chicken nearly as much as I'd like). If you ever want to get on my good side, send Popeye's or Church's (that's right, I said Church's) and a pair of Christian Louboutins.
Lo Fun Fact #3
Never show up unannounced or without a Pepsi. Better yet, how about not showing up at all?
Lo Fun Fact #4
I hate the telephone. Don't get mad if I don't call you or take a long time to return your calls. I don't call anyone. Don't call me asking why I don't call. Just don't call, okay? (Exception: I will happily take all calls related to business or to share fun/exciting/major news. I'm just not one for jawing on the phone just to be jawing.)
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. I'm always on my laptop and connected to the internet as I work and when IM's pop into my screen out of nowhere, they break my concentration and often startle the sh*t out of me in the process. So don't do it. 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 and a cat, all of whom I love to pieces. I had a bird (a Roller pigeon that I rescued in LA on New Year's Day in 2004) named B-Bird (what? that's a good name!) who passed away in February 2009, which broke my widdle heart in half. He loved me so, as I did him. If you meet me and ask me about my dogs and cat, we'll be instant friends, and if you ask about B-Bird, I'll probably hug you (unless you smell...wash first). If you meet me and ask me why the f*ck I have four five six dogs and a cat, see the above fun fact for how I will respond.
Bring It On!!!

An interesting new report just came out...


Doctors: Cell Phones Increase Risk of Being Killed by Lightning

Those closest to me know I can't stand cell phones (I'm not much of a phone person at all), and the thing that bugs me most is when someone stands or walks near me, then starts talking on their phone. It's intrusive and assumptive. Why would you think that I, or anybody in the area, want to hear your damn conversation? Go in the corner somewhere, or better yet...just shut the fuck up. Text message. Damn.

Where's lightning when you really need it? Ughhh!!!

(Sorry for the rant, y'all. I just hate the way these contraptions have come to be abused. Of course, long-time readers of The Lo Zone are aware of this, as evidenced in this post from when I was on tour back in February.)

    This isn't a race-specific issue. Offenders come in all colors. A BRUDDA yapping on a cell is just as offensive as anyone else.

    first it was using a cell phone causes cancer...

    then talking on a cell phone while pumping gas create an explosion...

    now, you're at risk of being hit by lighting while on the cell phone? nevermind being outside to start with and probably walking near taller objects which attracts more lightning strikes than anything else.

    i understand that florida has the most lighting strikes than anywhere else in the country. and i'm in agreement with ya boy from UF, vladmir rakov.

    but if a lightning strike can "pop" you while your on a cell, chillin' inside the house? then i'd say forget the cell phone. time to get right with the Lord! 0;-)
