NOW AT 'EUR THIS N THAT': The Fake Drama Over Mrs. Obama's Shorts

     *People just seem to wanna bitch and moan about any ol' thing. We mean, really, was it a slow news day? Not to say that EURweb and affiliates have never pounced on a hot story that, in essence, was little more than smoke and mirrors.

     But really, the First Lady's choice in shorts and curves is a top news story? Really? No, we don't think so. But we got to thinking about who would fan the flames of such a normally low profile story.

     The other day we recall a commentator on one of the major news networks ask the question "Are those the hips of a first lady?" He then shook his head and brandished a Cheshire Cat grin and proceeded on with the story. From the look on his face he was obviously tickled and, dare we say, titillated by Michelle Obama's choice in wardrobe.

     A First Lady that breaks the mold and is actually (gasp) sexy? Why is that a problem? Yes, the late Jacqueline Kennedy-Onassis was a pretty woman and for a long time has been considered the most visually appealing First Lady of all time, but Michelle Obama is a sister with considerable curves.

PLUS: Black Billionaires Make Forbes List, But Only Two Americans

     *Recently Forbes released it's annual list of the richest people in the world, with Warren Buffet coming in as the top dog with a whooping $62 billion in total assets with Mexico's Carlos "Slim" Helu is next with $60 billion and, despite being worth $ 2 billion more dollars this year than last, Microsoft's Bill Gates is "only" third on the list with $58 billion.

     But with all the successes that people of African descent have been making as of late how many of them can be found on the list? Quite a few!

     They're led by Ethiopian-born on Mohammed Al Amoudi, who made his funds in construction and real estate before investing in the construction of Swedish and Moroccan oil refineries and owns Svenska Petroleum and ranks 97th on the list.

     He is also the largest private investor in Ethiopia, putting money into such diverse assets as a hotel, gold mines and a food processing plant.
