The Politics of BusinessYes the business of politics and the politics of business, because both go hand in hand now, their now almost inseparable. Case in point, now more and more businessmen are going into politics, where once upon a time, it was mostly lawyers & history majors. For example look at, mutt romney who is trying to capitalize on this trend. And he might be the worst businessman of all, a true capitalist, a real live "Gordon Gekko" a corporate raider (go rent or netflix wall street the movie) if don't believe me, go read up on him, bain capital and their policies. And the companies they took over and destroyed, and especially read where that work is now. And if your a labor union employee, you better read about him, his vp choice and the ground breaking decisions in Wisconsin and their union busting. Not scared yet, still think that after this election, everything will be alrite. Ok well pay attention to another story, about the worst corn drought in 17 yrs which will mean a HIKE in food prices, because beside being a source of food, corn produces ethanol. So what is the end game here? With all this, is it all just to make President Obama a black man look bad, get him out of office. Because they BLAME for everything under the sun already, or is there something more in the works here. Foreclosures at a record high, wall street & other big name corporations laying off workers, banks going under, the Dow Jones slow. And like a said before HEAVY ATTACKS on the labor force in this country. But what's the real story, what's really going on, besides the rich unwilling to pay their fair share to help move the economy along. Soooo what is it we don't, can't see that is and will hurt us in the long run.....WAKE UP people, stop listening to the one sided media and go get this information your self, STOP getting soooooo lost and wrapped up in all this buffonish reality tv shows, like the one tonight on vh1...VOTE LIKE YOUR LIFE, YOUR CHILDREN, YOUR WALLET DEPENDS ON IT, BECAUSE IT DOES.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09673828489570403832noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2964812705661704459.post-58430662209487104852012-06-04T00:37:00.000-07:002012-06-04T00:37:28.854-07:00Where I Come From........Where I come from.....I come from a time where a village still raised a child, where you knew your neighbors and they knew you, they were almost like family, because you knew them almost as long. I come from a time and place where, half the stuff that's now accepted was NEVER accepted. Boys become men the old fashion way. Where you couldn't wait to grow up, so you could start acting like your brother, uncles or the old Gs around the way. And those same old Gs looked out for you and kept you out of harms way, by sending you home, when trouble was near or by NOT encouraging you to hang on the corner, hit the weed or the forty, like they did or any other activity that you weren't ready for. A place where summer in the city wasn't just a song, it was what you lived for, because it meant NO more school, books or teachers till september. It meant playing in the street, till your mother yelled thru the window, because it was dinner time, then hanging on the stoop or the park bench with your boys till bedtime. Yes summer in the city, where you got your "rep" on what you did in and on these streets, playgrounds, fields and courts (basketball not criminal) Where your "name and rep" got you out of trouble, NOT in trouble. A time where, if boys from another block, neighborhood or project came around your way, it was too ball not brawl, because they heard your crew had "game" and they wanted competition not beef. Where also rolling with your boys meant, looking for girls, getting numbers, and talking to them FACE TO FACE, NOT from behind a computer screen, IMing or chatting. Your boys were your "brothas," you shared things with them, and no one else, they had your back and you had their. A time and place where you learned your basic hood rules from the "CODE" of the street (never snitch on your peoples, mind your business, see and don't see and a few others) I come from a time and place that has LONG since been forgotten. Somewhere that wasn't sesame street, where you know you was 'REAL AND HARD" and fake and phony wasn't respect and you didn't hide behind computers, blogs or whatever they hide behind now. Where the "hot" hood was because someone bought the cops, because of the activity they were involved in, NOT because the new york times wrote an article about it. Where you stayed in your "hood" because it was home, and others never dared to step into your "hood." Where a good "knuckle game" trumped a knife or a gun. And where if you had to fight it was one on one, no jumping in, and usually you became friends afterwards. A time and place where ten years olds, were ten year olds, and BIG MOMMA was just that, she wasn't thirty eight, with three grandchildren already. And BIG MOMMA had the respect of EVERYONE in the neighborhood..... Man I'mma stop right here, because writing this, takes me back to that time and place, that has been LOOOOOONG since forgotten and doesn't even exist ANYMORE, well in our memories, in old pictures, videos, old home movies and movies of that era, the 70s and 80s. DAMN to think of what we have seen and survived though...Imjussayin. Well this is where I came from, where do you come from???

Ok let me explain, right after I got on the job, I was last on the list and a man named Mizell was number one, numbero uno, a fact which he was very proud of I might add. Now because I was last, I got alot of ribbing and ball busting over it, but I was a rookie, probie, new jack and I know that your suppose to "pay your dues" before you get anyway....a fact that's completely lost on these new crop of new jacks, but back to the story. One afternoon one of my training guys introduced me to Mizell as "the last one, mister turn off the lights when your finished" Mizell laughed shook my hand and told me, kid it gets better (after 19yrs I'm still looking for that better, that him and the other old timers talked about) but back to the story. Now from that day forward, I'd run into Mizell and he'd address me as "the last one" and I'd address him as number 1, something he was particularly fond of, but Mizell wasn't number 1 in the system, he was like number 7, and there were five in front of him, an the way it looked they weren't retiring anytime soon, and Mizell was HELL bend too see #0001 before he retired, it was like his obsession, mind you now, Mizell at the time I met him had over thirty years on the job and could go at any minute, but wanted too see #0001 next to his name. Fast forward two years, I moved up a lot, wasn't last anymore and Mizell was now #0004 with just two guys ahead of him, and the number 1 told him that "he'd never see number 1 as long as he was around. But this time Mizell's wife was urging him too retire and move down south, where they were building a house, BUT he wanted to see that #0001. Skip to the next year, finally the two guys in front of him retired. Mizell was now just six months away, till the new numbers came out sooooo he could finally see #0001. Now at this time Mizell had 34 years on the job, and a very excellent record, and only took maybe four sick days. Finally the day comes and Mizell see #0001 number one, numbero uno, and right after he put his papers in and retired, I saw him briefly before he left. Now there's a reason WHY I tell this particular story...... Mizell retired with over thirty four years of service, moved in to the house that he built down south, great right? WRONG Mr number 1, Mizell lived maybe eight months after he retired.......Yeah after ALL of that. Now I'm going too show you how, he effected and touched me. Ever since he's passed away, I've said, I WOULDN'T stay a month, day, hour, minute or second longer than I had too, when it's my time to go, be it retirement or whatever else, I'm OUT that door. I don't need to see #0001, the only numbers or zeros, I wanna see on the ones on a pension or social security check......FEEL ME!!!! Don't get me wrong, I'm NOT in any way shape or form trying to disrespect any old timer, that has done or is doing thirty or more years. Because a few of the ones I know, helped me out when a was a rookie. I'm just pointing out, (wkwd) WHAT Kevin Would Do. I've learned, not everything is for everybody, and I haven't walked a mile in anyone else's shoes......But Imjussayin. I'm GHOST when the time comes no matter the cirumstances.......Peeeeaaccceee and I'm going out quietly, like how I came in. And there'll be NO cake in the break room.......

Words which most people, don't know how too use, or really aren't what the word truly means. Because if they did know how to use it and in what content, it wouldn't be mis/overused.... Hell people scream it, DAMN near from the top of their lung, on just how "real" they are, just about everyday. But hey we live in a "it's ALL ABOUT ME" world anyway right? So why does it even matter. Hell you've heard catch phases such as "I'm sooooo real", "keep it real", "keeping it real" and my personal favorite "real reconizes real"sooooo much....You've even hear it on TV shows, like sportcenter, sitcoms, talk shows and on radio, man haven't we heard enough songs on radio, with some reference on being/keeping it "real"?..... And I'll confess, at times even I get caught up in the hype and say that "I'm real" and that "I keeps it real" difference is, I really don't need to say it because, with me it shines thru, but that's me. Others who alway say it, I can't speak for you, sorry. Now I can speak for a select few.....Like most of the fam, and definitely my cousin Nannette Ms Nicky Ewing aka Realizreal, a few friends too, too many to mention.......But the Question, I really have is WHY oh WHY do people have too scream it, fake it and bring attention to themselves, are they that insecure? Imjussayin....BIG Shout Out to the fam, the "entourage" and all the "real" peeps I know...Keep it real......Imjussayin Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09673828489570403832noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2964812705661704459.post-63861768622373872672012-03-18T23:34:00.000-07:002012-03-18T23:34:38.790-07:00Aaaah The Journeys and Joys of FatherhoodYes as any father will tell you, that's in their child's life, there are journeys and joys. But I can only speak for myself on this. And the journey for me, which began at the age of nineteen, an age where we're still someone's child. Trying to find our independence and preparing to move from teenagers into our twenties and adulthood . Here we are, his mother and I teenager parents. After finding out she was pregnant, that's when the real journey and fear set in. Fear, because if we handle this wrong, we can destroy and F up three lifes. But thank God, we had the good sense that our parents had instilled in us, and great mothers who stuck by us in those tryin years. Now my fear was because, I didn't grow up with a father, he was around me up until I was bout five, than after that I could count on both hands how many times I saw him until he passed away. My brothers and uncles stepped up to fill that void, (that's y I say uncles are fathers in training) Mom did her best to shield me from as much heartache and disappointment as possible, but every once in a while, he'd call an I go running screaming "my daddy comin" and she would brace from the worst......and because of that, that's the reason, why I'm the way, I am today and why I once said at 15, if I every had a child, I'd always be in that child's life, and they would know me and my side of the family. So now at 19, I had a chance, to fulfil those words and promises with my 1st born. His mom gave him my middle name, and his middle name came from our favorite tv show. After we bought him home, from the hospital, the first thing I did, was sit his mother and grandmother down and profess to them, that they'd never have to worry bout their child, that I would always be there. And till this day, I've always tried to live up to that promise....Because I never wanted, to have anyone other than them, tell me or take from me for my child. Now as time went on and we, his mother and I grew apart, we had our ups and downs, our share of arguments and drama, but nuthin like I've seen and heard in my life and it took up until he was five, when we finally got on the same pg, and every since then, I've had as blissfully and peaceful a relationship as humanly possible, now that's was the journey. Now here's the joy. I/we currently have a productive member of society, that we're very proud of...and in fatherhood thats all you can ask for, that your child grows up and makes something of their selves. And also with fatherhood, you must also understand it's a thankless job, that you will get no props, awards like they show on tv shows, mom is always gonna win, be celebrated and such, but with all of that, I can take pride in the fact. I didn't F up, I stood my ground and we (his mother and I) worked together all those years. People I know, also say to me "you did a great job" or "I commend you for rising him".....Ok it's nice to know people notice, but aren't you suppose to take care of your kids? Aren't you suppose to do right by them......I'll never ran from responsibility a day in my life, but I can't take props because his mom and I had the old system. We still had the "village" help raise our child. In which I'll take time out to thank the "villagers" who helped from the grandmothers, brothers, sisters, friends, neighbors, cousins, neices, nephews and speaking of nephews, I'd be a miss if I didn't give those dudes their props, because without them, sum of that journey doesn't go on....now when they were teenagers they were around me quite often.......MAN our stories and tales are legendary, OMG and I'm not ashamed to say, we grew up together. Because I learned just as much from them as I hoped they learned from me..... Their the ones who taught me how to text, use a computer, email, you name it they helped and never complained, when I asked them to show me over and over again and never laughed, when I asked what's the new slang or fashion was....Yes our own personal version of "entourage" as we call it, but I'll save those stories for another time......Soooo as you see these are my journeys and joys of fatherhood..... Imjussayin. And I wouldn't trade a day, minute or second of it.......And this goes out to the "Entourage"(y'all know who you are) his mom, her mom, my BIG Brother( love ya & may he R.I.P. gone baby but never 4gotten still got your dogtags around our necks) Sis & everyone else who were down...(if you feel left out because I didn't shout you out, please blame it on the head not the heart, cause I know who was there back then, and they know too) <br />

What do you do went you're smarter than your bosses. What do you do, when you're tired of being a player, but it's the only game you know? What do you do when you have better plays than the coach and can better reach and teach today's players, what do you do?...Or when you're the coach and can't reach today's players anymore? What do you do, when your screaming sooooooo loud, that it's deafening, but no one hears and not even God listening?......What do you do when everyone is telling you to settle down, get married have some kids....But how do you settle a restless soul? and your prospects and standards don't meet nor match.....What do you do when you've been in something sooooo long and now you have to change or start something new from the bottom? Sooooooo I ask you, what do or would you do? Now there's somethings to ponder, wrestle and think about for a minute. And also ask yourself, do any of these questions apply to YOU? And if they do or they don't ponder this......Before you judge someone else, walk a mile in his shoes and take some days in his/her head.....

So this blog is called Black History 101, because half of us out here, don't know any to much Black History, except what you were taught in school. You don't know beyond Dr.Martin Luther King, George Washington Carver and the peanut. You probably don't know about ALL the stuff and contributions thats Blacks have made in, to and for this country and the world. And we don't even know some of the other inventions that Blacks have created or upgraded and weren't given proper credit because someone else took ALL the credit. Now I'll give some of you, out there some credit, you do know about Macolm X, Jackie Robinson, but do you know about Madam C.J. Walker(the first Black female millionaire who created the straightening comb and other hair products) Langston Hughes(famous writer during the harlem renaissance) Benjamin Banneker, Granville T.Woods, Mary McLeod Bethune, Dr. Daniel Hale Williams(who preformed the first open heart surgery) or even Carter G.Woodson who started Negro History Week, that later become what we now know as Black History Month? Have you even heard of Adam Clayton Powell Jr who served harlem and pass more laws and bills than any other politician in history or of Thurgood Marshall, who before he sat on the Supreme Court, was one of the lawyers responsible for Brown vs The Board of Education. I know we ALL know the story of Jackie Robinson, the first Black to play in the Major Leagues, but do you know of the Negro Leagues? That produced many ballplayers that set records that aren't even counted waaaayy before some of them went to the Major Leagues? Do you know that rock and roll was created by a Black man? that according to Little Richard, who says he created rock & roll. Did you also know that Washington D.C. was designed by a Black Man? See this was WHY Black History Month was created so we could see all the things Blacks have accomplished....Now I remember when I was a senior in high school and I learned that I was going to college, I saw my Uncle James (may he R.I.P.) he said these words to me, that to this day stick with me, he said "go learn about our story, you've learned their's, now go learn ours, because their never gonna teach it to you so you have too read, research and find out on your own" which is the truest words he or anyone for that matter have ever said to me. And from then on, I've put more attention into learning our history, black history, american history. Soooooo support the arts, like black art expo, black plays, movies, things of that nature because if we don't support it, we won't have!!!! And before I forget let me add this, where would we/world be without black people? An my homegurl's answer is,"they'd" still be in the dark ages.....Learn your history because if who don't know your past.....will never have a future....Imjussayin Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09673828489570403832noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2964812705661704459.post-76341277128414428792012-01-29T22:45:00.000-08:002012-01-29T22:45:02.783-08:00Car ShoppingOk currently in the market for a new car. I'm getting a little tired of not having transportation on a friday, saturday night and it's getting cold. Now it's been a minute since I had one, I returned my last one, it was a good car, great body, but it had high mileage, very dependable though and not much wear and tear, but it was a lease with no option to buy. But it just seems like, most of the cars I've had were just leases, nuthin that a really wanted to own. Wait I can't say that, there was one car I had, OMG I loved that car, very low mileage, still had that new car smell, very dependable, only had 1 owner before me, so it hadn't been broken in yet. Man the minute I got the car, I put lojack on it, wasn't taking NO chances ...NO ONE was stealing my car. But I messed around one night drinking and driving, crashed and totaled it, man at times, I really miss that car. But that's the past and we're not suppose to dwell on the past. So one day I walked into a new car dealship, and what I hate about these places are, the salespeople, are either to pushy, stuck up or just not listening to YOUR needs and the kind of car you really want, they're just trying to get you to buy anything, sooooo they can make their commission. And also with most of these "new"cars, they already have recalls or get horrible gas mileage, and not very dependable, especially the american cars, their nothing like an older model. Used cars and used car dealers are NO better neither, they always tried to get you to look at and purchase, an SUV or minivan, because they're sooooooo many of them on their lot. Now I know, I'm not a minivan, fanny pack kinda guy, soooooo minivans are OUT, no matter how pushy the sales person is. I'm more of a sports couple/sedan kinda guy, and that's what I'm currently in the market for. But DAMN, I'm having the hardest fucking time in finding the make, model and year that I REALLY WANT..... Imjussayin, I'm a very wise, experienced shopper, whos' had good cars before. I've had american, foreign, imports and an suv. I know how to drive and how to take car of a car. Ok sooooo I've had a one or two accidents, nuthin major. Hasn't everyone, had at least one accident? Soooooo WHY OH WHY do I keep leasing these used up cars??? And GODDAMN have you read some of these "carfax" reports, Man it scares you completely from purchasing. Like for example; some have been rear ended, head on collisions with engine and major body damage, others have major defects or recalls. What the Hell going on here, that I can't find the car I WANT. And those online car sites, ain't no help at all, they post pretty pictures on their site, but when you go to see it and hopefully test drive it, it's never like the the picture you saw and the carfax never matching the car in front of you. Got me shaking my damn head, sooooo what's a car shopper to do??? Go another winter without a car?....Or pick up just anything, too get me thru the winter, till I find the car of my dreams or one dependable enough that I'd want to buy..........

And what made it worst was she was with a man (probably a lame with NO BALLS) but I digress....but there's NO WAY a woman I'm with, even said it once sitting next to me... NOT Having it. With that said, usually I don't even give chickenhead, hoodrat behavior a second thought, but lately. I've been getting a little ticked. But WHY, is it because I'm maturing or maybe because I see the gap or the divide between black men and women..... That's getting wider than the hole in the ozone layer or the grand canyon. Also maybe what I see is the bullshit in these statements, because most of you women bring all this drama, issues and ain't shit men to yourselves. HELL I swear half of y'all couldn't survive without this shit (drama, issues and no good men) in your lives. Like Kat Williams said and I quote "if you keep saying men ain't shit, then YOU ain't shit because you keep choicing no good n!%@s" Now ain't that MUTHAFUCKIN TRUTH!!! Now not all are to blame for their lot in life, sum just followed their mother's blueprint, sum have been molested, soooo that destroys alot in you and if you don't get help or ever address that issue, it can and will manifest later on in your life and may/will destroy a relationship or have you chosing fuck up relationships. Here's one thing I really need sum sistas to explain to me, like I'm a ten year old. What's up with sistas and their girlfriends??? Please I need to understand this one? Because when I was little, I once heard my cousin say to her homegurl at the time, gurl "let no penis come between us"...granted that was well over twenty five years ago, today shhhiiittt that same rule doesn't apply. HELL do y'all even know that rule??? Now wait I'm not getting at all, just enough....because sum of the shit, I've exprienced and seen with my own eyes WHOA!! Soooo I'm asking what's good, I know there's a man shortage, but to shit on your homegurl WOW But wait it gets better, these be the same chicks that tell you "nah gurl he ain't shit" you know he don't even take care of six kids"...or any other shit they say, straight hating cause they ain't got NO MAN or propects, because you know WHAT, misery loves company....Imjussayin. Sooooo how can you still make a blanket statement and scream "men ain't shit"check yourself first, before you scream anything anywhere...And what's even MORE FUCKED UP is what dudes I know and roll with are saying bout sum of you sistas....AND I'm giving y'all a PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT!!!....Sum of these brothas are seriously looking at the other persuasion and these are stone cold brothas, who DON'T date outside of their race and wouldn't even be thinking this way unless it's really ugly out there between brothas and the sistas. Something is gonna have to give people, and soon because we can't and won't survive as a race, if we don't find sum common ground somewhere....Sooooo you still think "Men Ain't Shit or have YOU even looked at your own SHIT!!! <br />

I mean really know me, or just think you do? I know sum think they do. But do you, do you know what makes me tick, what makes me flip out, am I wild, kool or what? Am I a gentleman or an asshole. Am I a good guy playing bad or a bad boy playing good. What's my favorite food, drink or snack. What's my favorite movies, tv shows or type or genre of music even. Do you know why I "write"what I do and does what I "write", make you look at me any differently? Or do you just brush it off like, he's stupid. Am I crazy or just crazy as a fox. Do you know me? And what do you know about me? So what do you think you know about me? Have you ever had a twenty minute or more, conversation with me? But before you even, answer any of these questions, about me or anyone else.... Do you first, know about your own self? Because remember, you must first know thyself (yourself) before you think or claim to know others. And do you know why your all in my business? Imjussayin.... Now have you ever asked any of these question to yourself? I mean, wake up in the morning or just before you went to bed, and looked at yourself in the mirror. I mean really looked deeply at yourself, and ask similiar questions to yourself, or are you SCARED??? Would the truth scare you? Or do you ever know the truth about yourself? What do you know about yourself? Or are you soooo busy, asking and answering other peoples questions? Sooooo here's a piece of advice, and it's free, start asking yourself sum questions, and trust me it'll help you in the looooonnngg run, because once you know who YOU ARE, hopefully you wouldn't want to be, in someone else's shoes, situation or business .......Sooooo I ask you again, do you know me? or should I ask, DO YOU KNOW YOU!!!!??

The twelve days of christmas and the twenty five days of hell. That means, no good cheer and ill will toward men. Crowded stores and malls, no parking spots looooonng lines. Don't forget the pick pockets, stick up kids, scams and a partridge in a pear tree. That's right, the holidaze are here. And I call it the"holidaze" because, people are in a freaking daze, during this time of year, and not in a good way. We get and go crazy, the day right after we give Thanks. Yes these aren't the old holidays, we grew up with. Those are long over and done...That good cheer and good will, toward men is either barely breathing or plain dead. Holiday shopping and shoppers, nowadays look more like, WWE wrestling matches, especially at any electronics store, toy r us or any other major retail store you shop in or at. Just check out "black fridays" across the country. Imjussayin, and it's adults, fighting like kids over items. That shit got me, shaking my damn head at this time of the year. What's happen to us as a society, what has gone sooooo wrong, to bring us to this? This is why Santa Clarke is writing this, sooooo don't leave out any cookies and milk, cause I ain't coming out dropping off NO gifts!!! BAH Humbug. Lmaooo thought that was funny. But seriously, isn't this suppose to be a happy, joyful time of the year? When and where did ALL this commercialism come from? That turns regular folks into straight ______ (you fill in the blank), when it comes to holidaze? And is it just me or do you feel the same way also? I think Will Smith say it best and I quote "your buying things for people you don't like , trying to impress people who don't like you, with money you don't have".....I think that, kinda sums up the "holidaze".... Well Happy Holidaze to you and your.....

As I'm lookin for seat on the bus, some one comes over and says hi, so I say hi back, she then begins tells me my name, where I used to live and who I used hang with...At this point I'm now scrambling to figure out who this is, and how the hell does she knows my history?...I tried to play it off, and go along, tryin to catch some kind of hint of who she is or was. So we engaged in conversation, but she gave NO clues, hints or anything that might help me. Then two stops before mine she jumps off the bus, sayin only I'll see u later...DAMN!! she left me scratching my head, with my mind racing, workin overtime to figure out, who the hell this was. Two weeks went pass without seeing her. And then like before, out of thin air she appeared on the bus, asking me did I figure it out? Like she was toying with me for her amusement, which to me wasn't funny at all, but like a poker player, I was all in. I asked every question imageable, like a tv reporter, but got nowhere. Finally she said lets have lunch & talk, I jumped at the chance. But due to our schedules, lunch turned into dinner at my place with her cooking. It was a friday evening, I remember it well, she arrived about 6ish, and went straight to the kitchen to start cooking. While the food was cooking, she finally opened up and told me, who she was. See back in the day, when we were teenagers sum one we know, played a dirty trick on her and took advantage of her, because she overweight and wasn't fly. And the reason why, she even spoke to me on the bus, was because, as she told me. I once stood up and fought for her. I thought to myself WOW, it is true 1 person can make a difference. Now as we ate, we caught up on each others lives and before we knew it, we were in my bedroom, now you know what went down sooooo there's no need to explain....Now as night turned into morning, and the sun began coming thru my window. I woke up to notice...she was gone, back into thin air just like she came....I looked for a note, a number, sumthing, but she left nuthing and there was no sign or trace of her....Man for a minute, I started to feel like Eddie Murphy's character in Boomerang, as I sat at the edge of the bed, wondering WHAT THA <a href="mailto:F#@%">F#@%</a>!!! Soooooo ladies at times, it's not just YOU. Men go thru "some" of the same things, they just won't admit them in public.....Imjussayin. Because it happened onenight.....

Yea I'm soooo excited, can't you tell. No really I am *wink wink*. And N.B.A.stands for, I will Not Be Around. Yes that right, I will Not Be Around anymore. Because the ticket price$ are just plain ridiculous nowadays. It's soooo bad, that their actually pricing out the average fan. I'm a knicks fan, and would love to see a game,once in a while, but the ticket price$ at the garden ,OMG are you serious???...And all that $$$ to watch a bunch of overpayed,overhyped and underappreciative athletes, not all of them mind you. But Im jus sayin. This lockout shows,well at least me a few things; 1) sports now is NOTHIN more than a business (if we didn't know this already) 2) NO ONE cares about the fan anymore NO ONE. 3)David Stern might just be the BIGGEST JERK in sports today,this man has had two lockouts under his watch. And right when his sport was at the height of popularity,who let's that happen??? 4)This was ALL ABOUT MONEY. The owners wanting more of it and the players demanding a fair share of that more. Now they say that school is a microcosm of society, it is. But this lockout will go down as a microcosm of todays society. David versus Goliath, management versus union, the 1% versus the 99%. You name it, and it was in this lockout. Now I'm not blaming or faulting the players for getting their fair share, I'm all for that, especially being in a union. But this lockout made everyone look greedy in a time where, being greedy is not exactly smiled upon. This isn't the 80s anymore and the Gordon Gekko type talk is seriously frowned upon, well unless your the 1% (the same ASSHOLES,who'd rather let the country burn/suffer than pay their fair share WOW) I actually started getting use too basketball not being around. College basketball just started, the NFL is in full swing, I still messing around with my new hobby .(I'm still not a Writer though lol) And plus I could cut my cable off or downgrade sum channels till about april, when baseball and my Yankees season starts up again. Imjussayin I just might have to N.B.A this season and n.b.a. basketball period.....

ENOUGH ALREADY!!! Ok I'm gonna speak on this and then leave it alone, its just plain annoying . Now we all know that every generation, has had their thing that drove their parents crazy,like with us, it was the phat laces on our sneakers that we didn't tie up. But that wasn't shit compare to this saggin shit. I mean WHO or WHAT started this trend anyway and WHO THA FUCK co-signed on and said "yeah this seems like a banging ass idea son" I'm rock my shit like this son" REALLY son? And why oh why do brothers always feel the need to wanna identify with "JAIL" so much? <br />
Because that where this saggin and white t-shirts come from. Yes if you didn't know, their both from jail...The sag, because that's what your pant do when you don't wear a belt, they will naturally sag,but this WAAAAYYYY below your ass shit,showing everyone your underwear and ass shit, NO SON its got to STOP. Now that you know where it came from,now the lesson can begin. Lesson 1, alot of these kids walking with their pants waaaaayyy down,either DON'T KNOW or really DON'T CARE that the real sign of how low your pants are, is HOW MUCH OF A BITCH YOU ARE IN JAIL....YES! THATS RIGHT, A BITCH and WHO YOU BELONG TOO,WHO OWNS YOU!!! Soooooo BASICALLY YOUR OPEN FOR SUGGESTIONS. I betcha, y'all dont even know it!!! And I got this straight from sum dudes, I know that just recently "came home" you know what I'm sayin. And if you did or do know this, WHY ARE YOU STILL WEARING YOUR PANTS SHOWING YOUR ASS??? And whats even sadder is,these most of these kids are walking around with NO clue the real message their sending out....So your actually defeating yourself, before you even start. Who really wants to hire you? Who's even taking you serious? when you look like a perp...I also have another question,well two,1st why do these kids ALL wanna follow each other? 2nd what happened to the days of individuality? These kids nowadays are copy and paste,which is just sad...They swear they know everything,you can't talk to them. And whats even scarier is, this is the generation, we'll have to depend on, to take care of us,make decisions for us,feed us and God forbid lead us into the next century....OMFG what a scary ass thought. Because we can't trust them to pull up their pants, and that a simple decision....In times like these,we're always looking for someone or thing to blame,but with this, this is clearly our fault, we have clearly let down and turned our backs on a whole generation. And if you dont wanna hear it or don't believe me. Just think all of the times you were sooooo wrapped up in your own problems,drama and issues and didn't pay attention to lil Rahiem or didn't let his daddy see him or even, let his dad or the new man in your life, handle him early before it got to this point? And how can sum of us make babies,and completely forget about them,like it never even happened. Now you know and see, how we failed a whole generation. OK ok now I know I when left with this one,but after the talk I had with my man Jazz,bout this and being real. I felt compelled to bring it to YOU and let you decide.....Imjussayin Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09673828489570403832noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2964812705661704459.post-58359035054688097292011-11-20T22:31:00.000-08:002011-11-20T22:31:22.515-08:00Just like musicHave ever stop to think what would the world be like without music? Im jus sayin, think about it for minute. Then put down your ipod or mp3 player,turn down your boombox,home stereo or car radio and see what you have? You would just have the natural sounds and noises around you. Now would you enjoy that or would you go and turn back up your listening device? Hmmm crazy thought huh? But music is life. And if you ever stop to think about it, there's literally a song out there that describes almost everything,we do or say. Play this game, next time your listening to music, an sum old songs comes on, try to picture where you were,what u were doing etc? Now did those songs take you back,give you happy memories,sad ones? Put you in good or bad mood? What.did it do for you. It just seems that music always put us in a mood, or in a place whether happy, sad or angry. Like everytime I hear Patrice Rushen's Forget Me Nots, I immediately think of my 8th grade class and our graduation. Music can be like a good pair of shoes or an old friend,that has always been there with you thru thick & thin. As you see I love music, well most genres of it anyway. Because it hypes me up,calms me down and generally sets a mood for whatever I'm doing or thinking. At a young age I was able to appreciate most genres of music, because in my house I heard some of them. Like grandma played religious music,my uncle played and loved jazz,my mom and aunt played r & b,a another aunt played calypso and my brother was a d.j.so as you see music was always a part of my life. And hopefully its been a good part of yours.....So to everyone in the music industry keep making good music and RIP to all those no longer with us, but let their music live on in your hearts,minds and on our ipods,mp3 players,computers and home stereos......Imjussayin just like music Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09673828489570403832noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2964812705661704459.post-1278158919822961792011-11-15T23:16:00.000-08:002011-11-15T23:16:45.297-08:00Death Of "Da GOOD GUY"<div aid="toggleDetails" class="DetailToggle FB ClearBoth" id="mpf0_details" title="Hide details"><div class="FBL"></div><div class="FBR"></div><div class="FBA"></div></div><div class="ClearBoth"><div class="WideMessageBarContainer" id="mpf0_wideMsgBarPlaceholder">Disclaimer....the following blog was writing by Roy"Real Talk"Clarke, and was approved & encouraged by ME!!!

</style> <div dir="ltr"> Hey, how you doing out there? This is Roy" Real Talk"Clarke. I come to you today to talk about the death of a good friend of mine " Da Good Guy" he was real close to me and it is hard to say, but ladies u killed him. Now I know what u are saying, how did we kill him? These days every woman I know is looking for a good guy. Little do they know they're all around them. Women just don't see them. Ladies lets think back to your teens or high school years. You had a guy friend, he didn't dress nice or have alot of swag but he listened. He also cared enuff to bring you soup when u where sick. Now think about your boyfriend at the same time, he was cool, had all the girls on him. He even had good hair. But he never told you "you look nice today" or called you when you were sick. He even cheated on you every chance he got, but you were together for 4 years. Until he went off to college and got a new boo. Now lets jump ahead to your 20's. You got a cool job at the bank,you and your girls go to the club once and a while and your still looking for "Da Good Guy". You have a guy friend who is cool and you know he likes you but you don't think of him in that way. You tell him all the time that the women he gets with isn't shit, cause he does all these nice things for them and they just use him. But when he tells you the same thing you say "NO Ricky really cares about me he is just going thought somethings right now and I have to stand by him". Ricky is a dude you met at the club one night. You got him a drink and took him home to his mothers house. Ricky also has two kids and two baby mama's who can't stand him. But you know what, you love Ricky. While your dating Ricky, your guy friend gets married and moves south with a woman who sees "Da Good Guy" that he is. Ladies does this story sounding familiar. Sorry to have to go hard at you, but they call me"Real Talk"for a reason. Here you are in your 30's ladies, you have started going to church and you have finlly found who you are, but now you can't find "Da Good Guy" anywhere. Once again I must say ladies you killed him!!! He has let "Da Good Guy" in him die and let "Da Bad Guy" be born. So R.I.P to "Da Good Guy" and long live "Da Bad Guy". Part 2 coming soon. I didn't say you would like it. I Just gave you Real Talk....We're (Roy"Real Talk" Clarke & me Kevin"Imjussayin"Clarke) </div></div></div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09673828489570403832noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2964812705661704459.post-33011648149930028972011-11-09T07:41:00.000-08:002011-11-09T07:41:35.924-08:00Fingers In My Cake<style>
</style> Holding court one night with few friends drinking, talking shit. When the questions started why men do this,why dont they that, and the number 1 question women always ask...Why why why do men cheat? Then one of my friend's girlfriend asked this question ;why does a man drop a woman if she's cheatin on him? I thought for a minute....and came up with this. I called it "fingers in my cake" Here's how it goes; you take your favorite cake ,say junior's cheese cake, chocolate cake, strawberry short cake or Cakeman Raven red velvet cake. Now you purchased that cake and bought it home, you take a slice of cake, and put it in the fridge, so now anytime you want it you can stick your fingers into that cake. Now the next two night you take a slice. Now two weeks go by you dont want any cake. Then one night you come home take your cake out to eat and you notice "fingers in your cake"and their not yours, now what would you do? Most of us would throw that cake away because someone else stuck their "fingers in your cake" you don't want that cake anymore . I said this is the reason that I see why guys will kick a women to the curb, because someone else has been were they've been ,and men can't stand that!!! There was silent in the room for a few minutes, then I asked them if they understood what...... Imjussaying.

Now at the lounge laughing, joking, chopping it up w each other. I walked to bar to get a drink...and thats when I bumped into her Ms Understanding....I said"excuse me Ms" Im sorry, she smiled, that smile light up the whole room. While standing there in front of her, I glanced down to noticed DAMN she was the right height and weight with 3heels on, jeans fittin just so right Mmmm, before I even knew it we were havin that love & life talk, we got soooo DEEP into it....we forgot we had friends with us. So I asked if her friends wanted to join my dudes, but she said her gurls wanted to leave"typical". So we exchanged numbers and facebook info. We both agreed to get together later on that week and said good night. Before long we were together alot, meetin and hanging with each others friends and family,having our share of private jokes,cute nicknames and secret code words (don't ask) startin thinkin DAMN is this the one? The one who could finally settle me down. Was Ms Understanding the woman to bring stability into my life? DAMN layin next to her had me having visions of jumpin the broom on white sanded beaches....But jus than sumthing snapped, sumthing happened. For some reasons Ms Understanding didn't understand anymore. Texts and phone calls came less and less frequently... was this really happening between Ms Understanding and I? Then I started hearing that she was hanging hard again with her girlfriends,being seen up in sum young dude face. DAMN say it isnt sooooo, how can my dream turn into a nightmare? Where did I go wrong? Was I too laid back? Or too up under her? WHY did I have all this questions but no answers? Was SHE really Ms right or just Ms right now? .......Or was she just another Ms UNDERSTANDING....Im jus sayin...

Yo WTF has happened. I've lived here all my live in different neighborhoods around everybody and never heard or seen anything like this. Now we always saw roaches but bed bugs HELL NO. So this leads me to believe its"them"who have bought these things along with"them"as"they've"moved back into brooklyn(which for sooooo long"they"had shunned because it had become too"urban") So one day I was havin a debate with an inteligent sista, I said its their fault they the ones bringing these things here,she said no its because of what we're importing...ok thats a reasonable argument but COME ON SON we've been importing stuff for years and never had THIS!!! Like my aunt used to said"they NAAAASSTY JUST PLAIN NASTY" ..This has gotta sum people I know so shook their standing up on buses and trains,and they won't even go to the movies because we've heard few movie theatres as well as a few very popular stores like;victoria secret,abercrombie & fitch and hollister were closed to be exterminated..now you know who shops there right???
