Everywhere you turn, the word recession is being used and for those truly pessimistic types, the word depression is being used. As the experts argue about the economy, us regular folks are getting worried. If the experts are up in arms, maybe we should be too. CLICK TITLE TO VIEW THE REST OF THE ARTICLE. </div><div><span class="fullpost"><br />This worry is starting to seep into our everyday routines. One big thing that can be negatively affected are our relationships. Romance seems to suffer when the finances aren't in a favorable place. This is something I discovered recently when I met a nice guy who told me he wasn't in a place to date right now. Apparently women who live in Atlanta like to be taken out for dinner and he can't afford that right now. So we have parted ways, but I digress.</span></div><span class="fullpost"><div><br /> Although we may be accustomed to romantic relationships suffering when times get tough financially but we may not consider other relationships suffering as well. It is entirely possible that our friendships could suffer when times get tough. If you are going through financial straits but you feel like your friends are hanging in there, you may become jealous of them and the financial security that you perceive them having. Or you may feel like you have to pretend like you can maintain the lifestyle you had before your financial situation changed. This can cause resentment towards your friends as well. </div><div><br /> If you are going through difficult financial times, try not to take it out on the people close to you. While you don't have to sit down with your friends and lay out your financial difficulties, be honest. Be conservative with your spending and focus on improving your financial situation. Let your friends know that you have to be conservative. They will understand if you have to cut back on your social spending. </div><div><br /> In these shaky economic times, you have a lot of things to deal with on your own. Don't let your relationships suffer. Your relationships can be an important stabilizing factor in your life. Keep them strong and healthy. It will definitely help.</div><div><br />-Source <a href="http://www.examiner.com/">www.examiner.com</a></div><div><br />This was a great article. I swear the majority of people I have spoken too within the last month relationships have ended. The main reason I am hearing is stress and fighting b/c of money issues. People we are all going thru it seriously. The economy is fucked up in a major way. Don't let the recession end your relationship. Just think back to how your relationship was before the recession started this year and money was not an issue. If you were extremely happy at that time...hold on to that. That shows that you had a solid foundation. Try to communicate to your mate and help each other get thru the stress and strain of a recession. Don't add to the number of people who are no longer due to break ups. It is going around like a epidemic..</span></div>ClassyDeevahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12612155445376246498noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8547384962014402538.post-64722859925856304642008-11-28T12:07:00.001-05:002008-11-28T12:10:12.561-05:00Bags By Chilli<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/qz4RZ6elLrE&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/qz4RZ6elLrE&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>Check me out in this interview. <span class="fullpost">.</span>ClassyDeevahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12612155445376246498noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8547384962014402538.post-25157461089854373622008-11-28T12:00:00.003-05:002008-11-28T12:03:54.306-05:00Porsche Foxx gone from V-103 again!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://alt.coxnewsweb.com/shared-blogs/accessatlanta/radiotalk/upload/2008/11/1126_porsche_fo/porsche-foxx-1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 225px;" src="http://alt.coxnewsweb.com/shared-blogs/accessatlanta/radiotalk/upload/2008/11/1126_porsche_fo/porsche-foxx-1.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><p><strong>Porsche Foxx</strong> is gone from V-103 —Â again. Her boss Reggie Rouse sent out an email this morning confirming her departure.</p> <p>I have no details otherwise. She’s already been taken off parts of <a href="http://www.wvee.com/pages/97174.php">the V-103 Web site, such as this list of Veejays</a>. Her name is still floating about though on some pages. </p> <p>Foxx was on air several years in the afternoon slot until late 2004. She was arrested for a DUI with pot possession and no license. She eventually had some jail time, probation and rehab. </p> <p>. In 2007, V-103 gave her a second shot, this time at mid-days. She has been on for about 17 months. She’s had solid ratings, in line with the rest of the station, which is consistently No. 1.</p><p><span class="fullpost"><br /></span></p><p><span class="fullpost">Source: AJC-Access Atlanta.</span></p>ClassyDeevahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12612155445376246498noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8547384962014402538.post-53816987758325770682008-10-08T20:22:00.003-04:002008-10-08T20:28:43.791-04:00Say What Now-Age Ain't Nothing but a Number<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK7BfnR5RjV-snLT_UPOtKlUeQbhm_UcVXd0Uz65Xw1t4f4z5zcjr0jhlfLsHjGa2ZujPM2zHqUCuwo9BThwxnyx1HiH9LCGXzLhuc31QP_PeOlm722m4fPoRiq4zMvaAMySg-b_ifxEdM/s1600-h/BG+Alone+2.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK7BfnR5RjV-snLT_UPOtKlUeQbhm_UcVXd0Uz65Xw1t4f4z5zcjr0jhlfLsHjGa2ZujPM2zHqUCuwo9BThwxnyx1HiH9LCGXzLhuc31QP_PeOlm722m4fPoRiq4zMvaAMySg-b_ifxEdM/s320/BG+Alone+2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5254943093123924914" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">Tune in this Sunday at 6 PM EST as we discuss younger men and older women with model Brandon Gregory<br /></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:130%;"><a href="http://www.blogtalkradio.com/classydeeva"><img id="btnBlogShow" alt="Listen to " say="" what="" now="" with="" classydeeva="" on="" internet="" talk="" radio="" src="http://www.blogtalkradio.com/img/180x60_callmyshow.gif" border="0" /></a></span>. </div>ClassyDeevahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12612155445376246498noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8547384962014402538.post-30458353657703901872008-10-05T20:48:00.002-04:002008-10-05T20:52:28.842-04:00SNL VP Debate:SNL Palin Debate<a href="http://tv.spreadit.org/snl-vp-debatesnl-palin-debate-october-4-video/"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://i295.photobucket.com/albums/mm157/THESPREADIT/s-SNL-VP-DEBATE-SKIT-large.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Click on picture to view video. <span class="fullpost">Source <a href="http://tv.spreadit.org/">http://tv.spreadit.org</a> .</span></div>ClassyDeevahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12612155445376246498noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8547384962014402538.post-61499795316499950502008-10-01T23:48:00.000-04:002008-10-01T23:50:37.711-04:00It is not good for ya!<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/BHHXBHq-Btg&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/BHHXBHq-Btg&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> <span class="fullpost">.</span>ClassyDeevahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12612155445376246498noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8547384962014402538.post-60818448595764239502008-09-07T12:09:00.003-04:002008-09-07T12:16:18.609-04:00Say What Now Tonight<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWEpryE7Xjh9btSHkiRfFTqW1VO2rePE8L5aQ444WX3FVhxwfus43o-X56EXb8zItI_QNzfXMzlxtRf3SDN5N0RVutRVgrR7uHQJTCN5H_WNAlXENKJlYUScg1jkwwiQcD3Q0rwFIL3w2O/s1600-h/logoswn.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWEpryE7Xjh9btSHkiRfFTqW1VO2rePE8L5aQ444WX3FVhxwfus43o-X56EXb8zItI_QNzfXMzlxtRf3SDN5N0RVutRVgrR7uHQJTCN5H_WNAlXENKJlYUScg1jkwwiQcD3Q0rwFIL3w2O/s320/logoswn.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5243312888432369538" /></a><br />Topic "ENVY ME" Rahiem Shabazz founder and CEO of Rasha Entertainment & Cri$tyle who is an in demand song writer.

"You can get excited about coming back and running through the tunnel one more time."<br /><br />Agnone said that Strahan struggled deciding whether he could give 100 percent mentally.<br /><br />"In the end, he felt he could not get back to where he was," Agnone said.<br />. <span class="fullpost"><br /><br />SOURCE: ESPN.COM</span>ClassyDeevahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12612155445376246498noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8547384962014402538.post-73120729722704990102008-08-22T14:04:00.002-04:002008-08-22T14:05:36.408-04:00Say What Now-Leaving the Baggage<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8Neo7OXFVrAaN25-_mne-tlvcHaKB51dC9AHksSwxh3CbWiegb0IoNBXbJIlRFMaJnoKdUxP_9mp-z6ttPUgSvqRm2v_bz7WU3mT2j61fS_H24YMN50sJBbadQVp5KA6arMRWVGrTl7s5/s1600-h/saywhat824.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8Neo7OXFVrAaN25-_mne-tlvcHaKB51dC9AHksSwxh3CbWiegb0IoNBXbJIlRFMaJnoKdUxP_9mp-z6ttPUgSvqRm2v_bz7WU3mT2j61fS_H24YMN50sJBbadQVp5KA6arMRWVGrTl7s5/s320/saywhat824.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5237404693786732306" /></a><br />Our special guest is relationship columnist Carol Marika. . <span class="fullpost">.</span>ClassyDeevahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12612155445376246498noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8547384962014402538.post-78314294665394901992008-08-19T00:05:00.004-04:002008-08-19T18:49:12.551-04:00ClassyDeeva speaks with Love B.

Funny man Bernie Mac passed on. I can think of many times when I was down and popped in a Bernie Mac movie that had me laughing like crazy. . In 2001, <a class="mw-redirect" title="FOX Network" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FOX_Network">Fox</a> gave Mac his own sitcom called, <a title="The Bernie Mac Show" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Bernie_Mac_Show">The Bernie Mac Show</a>, somewhat based on his own life. In the show, he suddenly becomes custodian over his sister's three children after she enters rehab. It was a success, in part because it allows Mac to stay true to his stand-up comedy roots, breaking the <a title="Fourth wall" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourth_wall">fourth wall</a> to communicate his thoughts to the audience. The show contained many parodies of events in Bernie's actual life. However, the show was not renewed after the 2006 season. Viewers were left without a conclusion for the series, and no ending to the storyline where Bernie and Wanda were trying to have a baby. His character on The Bernie Mac Show was ranked #47 in <a title="TV Guide" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TV_Guide">TV Guide</a>'s list of the "50 Greatest TV Dads of All Time." <span style="color:#ff0000;">~CLICK TITLE OF POST TO VIEW ALL~</span><span class="fullpost"><br /><object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/RviYo3WsqjU&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><br /><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/RviYo3WsqjU&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>.</span></div>ClassyDeevahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12612155445376246498noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8547384962014402538.post-13111173144777577292008-08-08T16:47:00.002-04:002008-08-08T16:51:48.910-04:00John Edwards had a jump off *SMH*<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdtsl5r06Zs6eEsK68x9UMhssQDtBkj1FBBkQZ3-EDaEnNBWjiHIK5P1in1hswiLx1c_rwm3tlvrycOYh1Ar-t8Rjze3TDw52e8-pHsarOO_VqUin-3pVGtkfo0JrkqCEfjaDdYhrGVMOt/s1600-h/2038411241_a9190c6f1c.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5232252388595120530" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdtsl5r06Zs6eEsK68x9UMhssQDtBkj1FBBkQZ3-EDaEnNBWjiHIK5P1in1hswiLx1c_rwm3tlvrycOYh1Ar-t8Rjze3TDw52e8-pHsarOO_VqUin-3pVGtkfo0JrkqCEfjaDdYhrGVMOt/s320/2038411241_a9190c6f1c.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Former Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards on Friday admitted to an extramarital affair while his wife was battling cancer.
