my mother

when things get hard for me i would think of my mother .she had a rough life growing up. her life started out easy her dad had a good job which is saying a lot for a black man in the south in the early 1900 hundreds she said he had a car and he worked for the city of savannah. then the divorce i dont what cause my grand parents to breakup but things went down hill from there her mother moved with her and her brothers and sister to new york and would leave them alone at night to fend for themselves while she would go out to clubs. when my mom married my dad her inlaws made no attempt to hide their feelings about her. they were mean to her and to us my mom had to work to support us, appease evil inlaws ,and try to encourage her man to standup and be a man. i believe my dads major problem was that he listen to the wrong women his sisters and his mother. they didnt want him to be successful be cause they hated my mother and they openly showed their contempt for her childern .but my mom was a very forgiving person she would say if someone gives you a stone give them bread she also said that she only wanted to live long enough to see all of her children grown well she got her wish.she also used to say ,ya,ll gonna miss me when i am gone . and you what know she was right

if theres a cure for this

remember the swine flu epidemic of 76 .the vaccine had side some bad side effects. about the same time diana ross had a song out that went, if theres a cure for this i dont want it .iam mentioning this because every drug thats advertised on tv seems to have some side effect sure you might not be incontinent any more but you might have uncontroled fits of vomiting, or you allergy might be relieved but you wont be able to stop farting you could get something to control the gas but it,ll cause headaches . i cant get into this ,you have kill the patient to cure him, mentality the pharmaceutical companies seem to have. the best thing to do is to go to a health food store or find a old person they know a lot about home remedies. its even better to try to lead a less stressful life and eat to live .some people just live to eat , and relax . my momma always said this world aint going nowhere it was here when you got here and it,ll be here when you,re gone

they torn down paradise

yep, they torn down paradise and put up a golf course on hutchison island. we use to go over there to fish on the back river, we would catch red drum ,stripe bass ,flounder ,and with a cast net you could even catch shrimp .you could go back there at low tide and catch shrimp to fish with when the tide turned .now access to the river is blocked by a golf course and all the blackberry bushes have been replaced by putting greens and fairways and what little wilderness thats left will be replaced by a gated cummunity. of course there,s lots of piers to fish from around here but when was the last time you saw a bobcat or deer or even a rabbit around a fishing pier well it,s suppose to be progress i think its excess i have already seen a fox in my yard i guess a bobcat is,nt far behind .

time flys

ah its monday again so quick it seems the older you get the faster time goes by except when you,re some place you dont want to be then time drags it flies when you,re having a good time i guess you get older faster when you,re having a good time if you could get on a dance floor and shake your booty for three weeks straight nonstop at the end of the three weeks you will have a circle of people around you saying go grannie its your birthday and you,re wondering where did the time go. yeah time is fleeting but it can be held captive for a minute.the bait, a smile and a hug for loved one ,a walk around the block,a slice of pie with ice cream and whip cream and ,well you get.just enjoy your self for a minute because before you know it it,ll be monday again

poor bruce

my youngest son farid a couple of years ago decided that he wanted to be a farmer so he got a few chickens well after gathering a few eggs that no one would eat and hatching a few chicks that a fox did eat, well if you can have chickens in the city a fox isnt to far fetch and it was the first one that i had ever seen that wasnt on tv.well after one rooster attack to many he decided that it was time to get rid of bruce the rooster. with spurs as sharp as ginsu knives bruce has become a force to be reckoned with. when you go to the yard to hang up clothes you had go armed for chicken. a broom usually does the trick.but now the enemy has to be arrested,disarm ,and sentenced to the roasting pan, the line has been drawn in the chicken scratch. now who,s gonna do it?

the nerve

my momma used to say girl you,re getting on my last nerve i am not sure how many she really had but i knew the was a line that divided the last one from the first one and when you got to close to that line you would get that warning. she aways said i had a lot of nerve i guess the amount of nerve you have decreases with age because as i have gotten older i,ve found that a lot of people are beginning to get on my last nerve. that bush threating my ssi before i get old enough get it gets on my last nerve, that aflac duck gets on my last nerve, that we have,nt gotten osama but we,re still looking, dude he,s at his momma house living in the garage ok,.and people who think they know whats wrong with black youth because they was one back in 22b.c. oh yeah people in the checkout line who would write a check for a $1.75 cents worth junk. hey i aint got all day you gonna make me miss jerry springer

baby you can drive my car

have you ever notice how your car passengers becomes codrivers when the traffic is approaching from from their side. all heads turn to the right .'you got it this side 'well what about my side.my head is turned to the left how do you know if my eyes are open and what about the back T2 might be gaining on us. but driving fun is when you are driving through the country. the people sitting on their porches would wave to you. people in the city would hardly give you a thankyou wave if you gave them a cut.its like hey where,s my thankyou wave.yeah i like my gas guzzling demon i dont love it. i can never love a pile of scrap metal but it comes in handy. so if i have stand by it in the parking lot with a set of jumper cables hoping someone would give me a jump so be, it because with that engine turns over, girl i am riding

out sourceing

the mesa police are looking to hire a monkey for their swat team. the monkey will be considered the ultimae recon tool.arm with a camera, radio, and kevlar vest.well i guess this gives new meaning to the term helper monkey think of all the unemployed monkeys who can get back to work. lancelot link was doing police work for a couple of seasons, curious george would make a good detective (he so nosey)and maybe bubbles will be looking for a job soon.but i dont know he,s kinda old and this is a young monkey,s job. (this news article later turn out to be a hoax but i had fun with it) (http://www.ape-o-naut.org/ www.ci.mesa.az.us/police/default.asp

working girl

My daughter has completed her first week at work and she is hating it. She don't like cashier work because of the impolite customers. Customers usually complain of impolite cashiers I guess it goes both ways I know she will work it out but I hope she get new job before she becomes a rude cashier. You know, before the I don't want that again take that off,the call for a price check,the what you mean my card did,nt go through.hang in there girl

click >marine mom

m third oldest son came from mos school yesterday .in 2 weeks he'll be heading out for okinawa i can still remember him leaving for his first school field trip to the atlanta zoo except there wasnt a war going on in memphis . i know he will be alright .he s bright, optimistic, and i know he has a bright future, the type of young black man you never hear about in the media. they only show you the shooters ,the dealers, and the emotional confused rappers we should all standup give props to the yuong black men and women who are trying to do something positive with their lives.

hospital fortress

i went to the hospital the other day to to visit a friend. the hospital was on lockdown .''what.?" oh yes i couldnt go pass the waiting room.you see three teens were visiting a friend and one of them was carrying a 9 millimeter gun. a a security guard spotted the gun and gave chase. the kid (14) with the gun was eventually caught outside the building and there was cops all over the place.so as i sat there another teen started to cry he had just been told that his cousin is in O.R. a victim of a shooting. two different situations with the ending. a young black teen in jail or injured.and everybody else pointing a finger.this cant go on

how tell if you are sane

a man goes to his exwife s house douses her and their kids with gasoline then try to set them on fire but his lighter doesnt work she escapes and call the police; he runs away and is sill in hiding .three burglars pay an early morning visit to mc donalds tie up the cleaning guy and make off with the safe. two days later and the safe is still unopen so they call a locksmith who in turn calls the police. now they and the cleaning guy are in jail. you think they still has that locksmiths number ? i am not making this up. it all happing in my home town in the past week. if you never did any of these thing then you are doing alright sanity wise

life

you know life is not without problems but theres alway a ray of sunshine to brighten your day taking the kids to the library talking to good friend even planting a few flowers can make a good day a great day

it takes a village idiot to raise a child

being a single parent is challenging to say the least but without it s small victories you know honor roll cute little awards from the school to frame and hang on the wall, one more and i ll have all the cracks cover up, but went i read the newspaper every now and then i ll come across a mother she dont what went wrong with her child. you mean that brat that used to torment my children every day i told about it and you laughed maybe my i kids should learn to fight unfortunatly too many people seem to think that way around here and it isnt working
