Afternoon Edition - 5/19/05

Vonzelle Gets the Boot – Two Left; One Week
Vonzelle Solomon, the remaining African American contestant on season four, American Idol, was given her walking papers last night. The 20-year old For Myers, Fla native was a letter carrier before making it down to the final three on Idol. Next week, the remaining two contestants, Bo Bice and Carrie Underwood will perform on Tuesday and the new American Idol will be announced on Wednesday’s show.

Over the Edge
Pepsi announced it will be cutting Pepsi Edge from the Pepsi line-up. Pepsi Edge was a mid-calorie cola concept introduced over one year ago. Pepsi admitted the product was a failure.

Last Call For Queer As Folk
Five years after the groundbreaking Showtime series, Queer As Folk began, it is ending. Sunday, May 22, 10 p.m. is the premiere of Queer as Folk’s season five – it’s last. I was always a fan of the show for its subject matter, realness, nudity and complete disregard for PC. The show never featured any minority characters – a drawback I was willing to overlook. If you’ve never seen this series, it is a true eye-popping-must-see. Season 1-4 are now on DVD.

On Blast
Beginning tomorrow, I will begin taking one question per day from the Morning Edition "comments" section to be answered at each Afternoon Edition posting. Call it your Urban-No-Nonsense-Dear-Abby-With-A-Penis column or just…. On Blast.
So post your “Dear Cocoa” questions and watch to see whether your question is chosen and answered at each Afternoon Edition. We might all learn something when you’re put On Blast!

Keep passin’ the open windows…

Dear Cocoa
Does one have to scream to satisfy a man in bed? I have a friend at work who wants to take me home and make me scream at his place in New Jersey, but I politely declined and told him I was sorry he had to share his bed with fire engines. Please advise...
Smooches!

Dear Cocoa,

In your opinion, what's the best brand name condoms and lubricant?
