shysternomics
2007-10-08 22:38:00 According to the Merriam-Webster online dictionary, a shyster is a person "who is professionally unscrupulous especially in the practice of law or politics." Being from the dirty, i have met a many of shysters both in the streets and in the work place. From my recollection, the governor of Mississippi gives new meaning to this word.We all recant of August 2005 when Hurricane Katrina “Dropped the Bomb” on parts of the Dirty. It was one of the catastrophic storms in the history of the U.S. In many places, it did so much damage that it lead to the displacement of tens of thousands of people. In fact the U.S. Census Bureau, noted that after the event, the population of the state of Louisiana declined by 219,563 (almost 5%). Almost 80% of New Orleans was flooded (neighborhoods that ranged from 75 to 100% African American – see pg 2) by Hurricane Katrina, with some parts documented to have been submerged under 20 feet of water.Total city of NO displacement was close to 500,000 perso...
aint nothin' like the real thang baby
2007-10-06 07:09:00 Some times you think you have heard it all, like when my employer told me I had to ask permission from them to make any loot on the side. Or about 16 year old Pleajhai Mervin, who had her wrist broken by a school guard for dropping her cake.But what is astonishing to me are these self-righteous puritanical hypocrites that want to impose their views, no matter how fascist on others. This past Monday, the United States Supreme Court decided not to hear a case that challenged the state of Alabama’s decleration of sex toys as being contraband.The high court upheld a lower court ruling against Sherri Williams, owner of Pleasures stores in Huntsville and Decatur. The law (Alabama's anti-obscenity law) was enacted in 1998, bans devices “designed or marketed as useful primarily for the stimulation of human genital organs.” LOL. So if you want one, the state will likily loose a modicum of revenue since folks will have to get their toys from out of state (the law permits folks to buy s... More About: Baby , Real

2007-10-01 21:09:00 Just a query, we all know about sperm banks, but tell me this, is it possible to become a licensed independent contacted sperm donor? I mean, why go to a bank, albeit the selection is vast, when you can select the make and model of your sperm – both on and offline. I figure like this, I am a good person, and I think I have high octane, mandingo, zulu, put it on the plate super duper loop-t-looper sperms. And stating such, why can’t I be an independent sperm contractor for that corpus of women that may desire to have a child, and may desire certain qualities in their sperm that love in all cases may not predict such qualities to evince. I figure high IQ sperm. PHD sperm, and raw dawg country Memphis Nigga sperm may have a price somewhere in the sperm market. And add African American, 6-2, 180, and no diseases to the aforementioned (albeit there is a thin line between brilliance and insanity).I could also give discounted prices since my overhead would be low (no pun intended) b...

where dem dollars at
2007-09-26 04:17:00 Boy oh, boy, I’m glad my broker honored my request to put a quarter of my account in pounds and Euro’s each. Im certain by now you have heard that the dollar dropped to $1.40 against euro.This slide has been goin on for about 3 or 4 years now, but never has the change against other currencies been so dramatic. This was after the Federal Reserve cut interest rates in the beginning of last week.The query is multifold, inclusive of asking what does it say about Greenspan's successor, Ben Bernanke. Not only do we have to worry about the decline in the greenback, but add to that the bust in the housing market and a reduction in manufacturing, this should have a major impact on the U.S. economy.My concern is that politicians are not even talking about the importance of having a strong currency for the country during the current political dialogue. Especially since it has been reported that China has stocked piled about $200 billion US dollars. Then there is the Arab move to confound ... More About: Dollars , Doll , Lars
bling 4 a king
2007-09-24 05:09:00 I am not ashamed to say it but to me, most folk who seek fame over character have little or no integrity and low self-esteem. This is particularly true by my speculation for entertainers and athletes.Many of us know that we are in a very different era in America. For the first time, a man that looked like me is being honored via a memorial in Washington, DC and his name is Martin King Jr. I look very highly at Dr. King, not only for his astuteness as a scholar, or the fact that he is like myself, an alumnus of Morehouse College, or even his letter from a Birmingham jail, but because with all of is faults, he was a man of character and integrity.People say that we need to support the memorial to Dr. King and I agree. They are holding concerts and asking for loot left and right. I just don’t know why it is so hard for us to get the loot we need with all of this so-called new money in our community. So I just say this as a challenge. I Mean, I would like for folks to show me they ain... More About: Bling
lucky # 6
2007-09-20 04:55:00 I know a lot of folks up in arms over what happened a year ago around this time in Jena, Louisiana. I am too; I’m just upset that stories like this don’t get coverage on Nancy Grace or Larry King, not even Montel. But what would one expect?Based on this, it is obvious that O.J. Simpson stealing his own shit back (if such is possible) is more important to white news media outlets – yep I said it WHITE. So I suspect that means what I am about to introduce now, albeit I feel the average reader knows about it, will be on television around next year (2008) this time. Last week, Megan Williams (in hospital bed photo) found out first hand what it means to be ignored and treated like a chattel. And according to police, it’s likely that it all was the result of her being an African American woman. The 20 year-old was forced to eat animal feces and to lick up blood. She was also sexually assaulted, made to drink water from the toilet and had her hair pulled out. In addition to the afo... More About: Lucky
the new super hero
2007-09-19 19:21:00 Growing up I was a big fan of comic books. I loved the super hero’s and arch villains even more. I didn’t lean much for DC comics and the likes of Super man and Flash, but towards the Marvel group with Luke Cage, Black Panther, Iron Man and the Avengers. Although I haven’t picked one up in a while, I do see a new Super Hero or super villain arising on the world stage – China.The way I see it, China is about to move in front of all these rinky dink powers of the G-8 great west delegation. And they doing so with professional criminal without a criminal record accuracy. You can start off with the Yuan. It was devalued for the first time in a decade in 2005 when the changed it from being valued on the dollar to a group of currencies.Since then, the Yuan has appreciated 6.35 percent against the US dollar and this past July hit a new high against the US dollar given a trade surplus at mid-year projected to be US$100 billion. But that’s not all. If that wasn’t enough, they start...
makin' progress
2007-09-13 18:35:00 One could argue that since we declared war, invaded and subsequently occupied Iraq, that things have been getting better (that is if you are a recovering cocaine addict as is our current head of state). Otherwise, such an assertion would be fatuous. Every since major military operations ended in Iraq some four years ago, we have still been conducting major military operations. Not to mention, inconsistent and running water, electricity and high unemployment was unheard of prior to our invasion and is now a daily reality for some 70 to 80 percent of the Iraqi populous.Add to that the fact that the government we installed is basically dissolved, with leading figures such as Judge Radhi al-Radhi, who ran the Public Integrity Commission set up by Paul Bremer recently resigned due to death threats (a fortune for him since a substantial number of politicians we have installed have already been killed).We were told that the troop surge was supposed to reduced the insurgency and create an e...

Kicking In Doors
2007-09-11 22:07:00 Main, it is getting rough out this camp. In the last month, I have heard stories from several of my boys about folks bum rushing cribs in Southwest Fulton County down her in the ATL. One of my folks say his boy was in the house when a crew of four bussed in the door and started running through his crib. Since he was home they scatted out with the quickness. Another associate of mine had his car stolen and the crew was using his car to do more jobs.Many of them are young boys with no respect or no remorse, figuring its best to be gangsta and take another person stuff as opposed to work for it. Not to mention, there have been crews hitting Big Lots, CVs’s and fast food joints. They are so brash that on camera they have been caught wearing the same thing – white T’s and Atlanta Braves caps. Add to the mix, the recent increase in stealing ATM machines by dragging them out with trucks and with fork lifts, seems as if no young brother desires to earn a living unless it is by doing d...

So Jones, main, a nigga love music main.I realized that after I had my interview with Shorty-Lo, his album coming out in a few, and him and Born Immaculate, just as Lil Mark, Short Greg, Fabo and the Legendary Mook B, and I go way back.

I mean they used to recored in My studio in 1988, b... More About: Life
Worthless Negro
2007-08-31 16:03:00 On this gloomy and inclement day in Atlanta, it has just dawned on me that that I have joined the ranks of the worthless Negro . See, I do not expect everybody to understand what I mean. Some people will never know what I am experiencing now because they have never had to provide for themselves or their family or be the single care giver of a household; and may have others to shoulder their burden by protecting them from bills and the pressure of having to provide everything.But me, there is rent/mortgages to pay, auto bills, daycare, tuition, putting clothes on my family’s back, keeping food in their stomachs and a roof over their heads with electric, phones, gas, and the water running. True, I still have lot coming in and I am a hard worker, but more is always a plus and needed.See, I was taught that the measure of a man was how he provided and protected his family and how he takes care of his children. It is just that as a man, the only thing I was ever afraid of was not being a... More About: Wort
the adulteress
2007-08-31 06:17:00 I have always wondered if it was possible for an adulteress to actually value and respect the sanctity of a monogamous relationship and or marriage? I have also wondered if an adulteress can change her ways? I have come to conclude that the answer is no, for once an adulteress always an adulteress. For she will always love that married man first above all other men or else they would have not knowingly started the relationship or be able to cut all ties completely with that man.For an woman that sleeps with a married man will always have some kin and affection to that man and will do anything to keep ties with that person. Now I know you are saying this is not all women. And I agree, but for the woman that knowingly interacts with a married man, and if that man may have some fame or recognition to his name, I will venture to say she will never be faithful and trustworthy. She will always stay in touch with that man, and when things do not go her way in life she will look to him for ... More About: Eres

More articles from this author:2007-08-31 00:23:00 Believe it or not, having no government in Iraq at the moment means more problems for the folks we consider our allies, Especially Pakistan. Pakistan, a country that is run by a man that took over in a military Coup and still prefers to wear his military uniform as opposed to a suit and tie. What’s the problem you say? Well let me put it like this.In a speech to the European Parliament foreign affairs committee last year, Pakistan’s President General Pervez Musharraf blamed the United States and the West for “breeding terrorism in his country by bringing in thousands of mujahideen to fight the Soviet Union in Afghanistan and then leaving Pakistan alone a decade later to face the armed warriors,” according to an article in the Pakistan’s Daily Times published last year.Now these same forces, once friends to the US are our enemies and we put them in place. The situation is precarious for Musharraf since they are trying to push him out of leadership the Malcolm X way – by a... More About: Amour 1, 2, 3 |
