From Teeth and Tongue

Just keep reading on. This is fresh current news that gets more interesting with each article. The writer Beverly Griffin Shippy is an on the edge writer who has been censored for far to long. So the writers flame in me burns constantly. Various newspapers I wrote for in the past have selectively decided not to print my articles for reasons un -becoming to me.

I'm not going to cry foul play. I'm going to solve that problem by continuing to write.

Just read on!!!!!

LA Lakers 2010 NBA Finals

Hello All,
I am digging deep now to try and understand why people riot at the end of sport championship games. They destroy property. Cause thousands of $$$$$$$'s in damages and never pick up the pieces of the hurt they have caused others after the good feeling of victory. Case in point is the Laker win Thursday night 6/16/2010 over the mighty Boston Celtics. A great 7 game series.

People should find another healthy way to celebrate at the end of a win. The feeling of your team winning feels so good while at the same time you feel so bad. Especially if property damage has come to your front door.

According to CS Monitor.com scattered riots happened though out the city of Angels, after the game . Why oh why tear up other peeps stuff. Why not tear up your own stuff. Just have a quiet riot of your very own. At your diggs. Why not burn up something you have been wanting to get rid of and never could find the time to do it.

The next time your team wins a big game try that idea. Burn up your own stuff in a garbage can outdoors. And please stop causing your fire fighters un-neccessary stress they already have just because these professionals put their lives on the line everyday anyway, when riding out to put out fires. Find another way to celebrate. No more fires PLEASE........ And don't break out any more car windows either. Try leaving roses instead of your teams color. Give your local florist something to do. Spread joy and not grief in the same minute space. Lets see. 30 seconds of happiness then 30 seconds of hurt, all within a minute. Try it.

MJ lawyer wants to keep his medical license.

Since the tragic death of superstar Michael Jackson on June 25,2009 at his residence in California. The media has pounded readers with inconsistency concerning Dr. Conrad Murray's last day with MJ. According to the Los Angeles Times Associated Press release 33 minutes ago. It is now 10:00 pm est. in my time zone. Dr. Murray is fighting new efforts to suspend his medical license in the state of California. Filing papers on Friday opposing the suspension effort and accusing prosecutors of renewing an old motion before a new judge, hoping for a different result. Another judge refused to suspend Murray's license, but did order him not to administer anesthetics such as propofol, a drug that was implicated in Jackson's death. Attorney Ed Chernoff argued that restriction is sufficient. Murray has a pre - trial hearing before Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Michael Pastor on Monday in his involuntary manslaughter case. The medical license case is expected to dominate the hearing. Murray has pleaded not guilty in the death of the pop legend a year ago.

In my opinion, it seems to me that since Dr. Murray was paid $$$$$$$$$$$$$ to look after MJ's interest medically and failed to get the job done. A suspension of his license is a lightweight
sentence handed down to this doctor . He should have been locked up a year ago for gross misconduct. He has even organized a fan club in his support. Playing on people's intelligence. Anything to distract the world away from the real facts of this tragedy. I wonder how many patients he has lost in the years of his practice to similar accidents such as the MJ incident. Has anyone looked deep into this doctors profile yet. Is MJ his one and only death of a patient he has been treating ???????????????

If this case keeps moving in slow motion as it currently is going right now. I predict a total acquittal of all charges. Because this accusation is loosing its steam really quickly. Many people have moved on to another story. Will MJ ever get justice. Or will this high profile doctor just ride into the wind. To be continued......................

The BP oil leak.

The British Petroleum oil leak is the latest tragedy to hit The Big Easy(New Orleans). This oil leak is now in its 6th week after the April 20th oil leak explosion that killed 11 workers. BP has failed to significantly stop the worst spill in US history. An oil cap that was placed to plug up a leaking hole has collected approximately 252,000 gallons of oil as of Friday June 4, 2010. It's first full day of use. According to Coast Guard Admiral Thad Allen. The well has leaked 22 million gallons to 47 million gallons since the crisis began according to government estimates. The oil has now reached the shores of Alabama, Louisiana,Mississippi and Florida. It has turned marshlands in DEATH ZONES for wildlife. Some are saying it brings to mind the plagues and punishments of the Bible. This information was pulled from the wires of The ASSOCIATED PRESS by writers Melissa Nelson and Holbrook Mohr. Contributing to this report are AP writers Greg Bluestein in Grand Isle, La.; Eileen Sullivan in Washington; Paul J Webber in Houston; Ray Henry in New Orleans; and Jay Reeves in Theodore, Alabama.


My BLOG says BP with its massive tankers and bottomless money pits, must stay in the state of Louisiana at least until the early beginning of 2011, to make sure 98% of the oil has been cleaned up. The fishermen depend on the gulf as a financial producing vehicle for their families survival. These men and a few women are professionals by trade. The same families are generational . This is all they know. The sea and how to catch fish. The next time you sit in a resturant and eat anything that is salt water and or fresh water entrees. Give thanks to a fisherman.

The sad part about this BP fallout is most people did not realize that these large oil tankers just do not have a back up plan for explosions out at sea.

These oil conglomerates apparently have a nonchalant attitude about accidents in the worlds waters. All they care about is dropping their loads and getting back to reload again. Any incident that happens along the way is just an o o oops. The oceans eco systems and the mammals, corals, fish, birds, etc. and everything else that depends on the ocean for survival is doomed. Thank goodness for the thousands of volunteers in those gulf coast states that are assisting in the efforts to clean up the coast line and the birds etc. that are beginning to wash ashore. These volunteers are helping preserve life.


My only wish for now, is our government does not allow BP to raise fuel prices at the pumps. My other wish list is for our government to force any oil tanker coming into US territory to show the blue prints for a hole plugging disaster. These tankers must have plans on board and the equipment in tow, to quickly get started, with patching up all damages to these steel floating, monster tanker, ships of the seas.

The Big Easy isn't so easy anymore to mirror into. Just a few years ago Katrina came through and re -shaped the bayou state into ruins. Now here comes BP. Who's next.
