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.
Beware An Angry Black Woman Wielding A Big Stick (Or Something Similar)...

...'cause she will (eventually) whoop. your. ASS.

Especially if she's got a bit of a chip on her shoulder about playing the person who'd just beaten her sister, and she's also feeling a bit touchy about being slammed with a racist remark by a heckler in the stands.
"The guy said, 'Hit the net like any Negro would.' I was shocked," Williams said. "I couldn't believe it. I had to do a double take. I think I hit a double fault on that point."

...

"I shouldn't have let it bother me, because growing up in Compton we had drive-bys," said Williams, who was raised in Los Angeles. "I guess that's what my dad prepared me for, but I'm not going to stand for it."
That's alright, girl. You showed 'em who's boss and got the heckler thrown out of the game.

Now that's civil rights!!!

    I'm surprised the guy said it, but I shouldn't be. People will say and do anything these days. I bet you he thinks twice before saying something like that again.

    Well, it's interesting that he used the word "Negro" Perhaps he thought he was being pc or something. Who knows, but I am glad she kicked ass

    LOL, Juan! i thought that was funny too! i may not always be a fan of some of the Wms Sisters' fashion choices;-), but I LOVE how they both are so SMOOTH & confident about their skillz...whenever i've seen them in interviews & people question their ability or whether they are in the game as tokens - they quietly have said, "meet us on the court & we'll see."
