Now that we’re all settled in to the new blog space and I’m finally able to spend some time making things look more ABW-ish, I’d like to do something about our headers. Currently we have some rotating nature pictures which are pretty, but not very us. I could modify the old header and stick it […]

Like any geek worth her salt, I saw the movie this past weekend. I try not to pay too much attention to casting, spoilers, or even trailers, so I was really surprised to see will.i.am in the movie. As the sole brother, I expected him to make me proud. All I can say is that […] Continue reading →

Something I’ve been meaning to post/clear up for a while. Many regular readers know this, but for those who don’t: there are three women who regularly post on this site.  There’s me, the original Angry Black Woman, then there’s nojojojo/Nora and Karnythia.  For a long time N & K have been doing most of the […] Continue reading →
