pass the dutchy redux

I was standing in my driveway one day when a car with two young ladies pulled up asked me where was the funeral gathering for so-n-so was.well i don't know so-n-so nor where they lived.you see in the black community we have a after party and we have a after funeral.and there are some people who follow funerals just for the gathering afterwards .The thought of free food make some people do strange things.i have crashed a couple of family reunions myself. But when you have been driving for hours in way back Georgia and the kids are hungry and the nearest restaurant is a kajillion miles away and you see that church sign that's says so-n-so,s family reunion you just pull in a say hey cuz I haven't seen you in ages. I bet you don't remember me, guess who .You just keep talking while the kids fill their paper plates and run back to the car.then on as if on Que you say where's those brats of mine. they are so wild, let me go find them.then its back on the road again and damn if the little hellions didn't get anything for me, just a lot of sweets.i might be the reason why the people at reunions wear family t-shirts now they should start doing that at funerals.you never know who,s there to pay respect to the decease and who,s there to pay respect to the chef. theres a lots of food at black funerals most are the type that probably killed the decease,pigtails, pig feet,well lets just say the whole hog and chicken cooked in every conceivable way. But no fish I don't know why .You would think that that,s what they would need to feed the multitude of people who didn't know the decease but all agree to a man that his people can show throw down in the kitchen

trip to albany

its friday and inspite of an impending storm i made that trip to Albany to pick up my daughter for spring break there will be none that booty shaking in Cancun for her or girl going wild in Daytona either well shes not that type of girl anyway shes not really into wild behavior or as she says acting stupid anyway we did find a fastfood takeout called hip hop chicken in east Albany Ga couldnt find the burger pimp though

spring is in the air

yep and soon i,ll be picking up my daughter from albany state university and people girls do not travel light. so i had to rent a mini van and for a teenage freshman with stuff it was too mini,they are going to deep clean the dorms so i have to take everything she says,and i,am not just talking mini frig and microwave i am talking clothes and shoes and everybody knows shoes plus teen female equals not enough room.but i could understand i was a teen once in the far distance past and i know that shoes and outfit must coordinate. anyway if you make that trip down rte 82 stop at the burger king in hinesville and give a thumbs up to the troops getting breakfast they arent marines but they are alright.and when you pass by the paper mill in jesup look down at the river and see if you can see blinky the three eyed fish and the cotton fields along the way waycross is a pretty interesting town to stop in and has alot of interesting places to visit it has a river that flows through town and a lot of nice places nearby

cats away

i took my troubles down to madam ruth well not really but i did take my cat down to animal control. you see i have to many cats so i thought one of them will have to go deciding witch one to give away wasnt hard the pregnant one has got to go i know it seems cruel to put a woman out when shes full of babys but being known as the cat lady isnt so great either besides i already have seven cats suppose each of them have seven kits that might be good for meeting men on their way to st ives but do you think they would date a cat lady. cat woman maybe. cat lady i dont think so. well the burly looking lady. yes she was burly looking , takes one look at the cat and says did you feed this cat .i wanted to say no the cats fat because shes retaining water .i should have said what the hell does that got to with it take the damn cat. what i did manage was a weak yes.she looks down at me, did i mention that she was burly, and says you fed it its yours. i said yes maam.i took her to the animal told them i found it and they said they cant take founded cats so iam stuck with a cat thats about to drop a load and the other cats dont like her maybe thats why she went out and got pregnant she wanted to have someone to love that ll love her nah she was just a cat in heat and iam the cat lady

a rose

have you ever watch single rose in a vase its a beauty to behold. no i am not trying to be a poet the rose i am thinking about is my brother. he was diagnose with liver cancer and the doctor said he had only three months to live.well the doctor call it right three months later my brother died. like a rose in a vase my brother slowly faded away from me. he was strong but his strenght his reasoning and his ability to comunicate fell away like petals from a rose.i wont dwell on his dying too much. i still have the memories of all the good times, the funny times, and the hard times i gave him when we were little he was my big brother thats what little sisters do give their big brothers a hard time.well i guess now you know why i havent written in a while. anyway remember to stop and apreciate the beauty around you and if you have a big brother gave him a big hug and while you are doing that sneak a kick me sign on his back and if you have a little brother well just give him a nougie

sayifah's rant

sayifah's rant did this month started out with a bang or what? every body that went quail hunting with dick cheney says what.bang of course.i dont maybe some yelled duck and instead of bending down he went hmmm duck, hey thats a bigger bird.i guess the next time they get taste for quail theyll go to krogers.the hunters say the farm raised birds dont taste as good as the wild ones and they say the same about turkeys but until they find a flock of turkeys thatll stay still long enough for me to hit them with my grocery cart ill keep buying my poultry from the supermarket.its agood thing they werent hunting wild boar(no not Jimmy Carter)i have heard that if you miss them they will attack you and running for a tree isnt the same as running for office.running around shooting a gun like he was in the army.i had to say that because my son is a marine semper fi
