it's in your eyes

I see it. You see it. It can't be denied.

Look closely. Deeply. It's in your eyes.

The love and adoration you have for your man

You shower him with the love that nobody else can

Physically, emotionally, connected to a bond that can't be denied

Love is being worn on your sleeves and you wear it with pride

Those eyes pierce through him and touch his soul

From the first date, it was with him whom you thought you'd grow old

You've both enjoyed the trials and tribulations that you've shared along the way

You have that real love and forever it will stay

The good. The bad. The ugly. You've seen it all.

Through it, you both stood tall.

You're unlike most people who would run to the nearest court to make it end

The love stayed strong because your were comitted to your best friend

The epitome of success

Thirty plus years of marriage and you passed the test

When we look at you, it's what we aspire for all marriages to be

Your love is never hidden. It's bright, visible for the world to see

It's never been about kids, money or careers

True love stands the test of time through the years

You both could part tomorrow but the love would never demise

For we will always see your love...because it's in your eyes.

5 questions NOT to ask a man...

5 Toughest Questions Women Ask


There are five things that women should never, ever ask a guy, according to an
article in an issue of Sassy magazine.

The five questions are:

1 - "What are you thinking?"
2 - "Do you love me?"
3 - "Do I look fat?"
4 - "Do you think she is prettier than me?"
5 - "What would you do if I died?"

What makes these questions so bad is that every one is guaranteed to explode
into a major argument and/or divorce if the man does not answered properly,
which is to say dishonestly. For example:

1 - "What are you thinking?"

The proper answer to this question, of course is,

"I'm sorry if I've been pensive, dear. I was just reflecting on what a warm, wonderful, caring, thoughtful, intelligent, beautiful woman you are and what a lucky guy I am to have met you." Obviously, this statement bears no resemblance what so ever to what the guy was really thinking at the time, which was most likely one of five things:

a - Football
b - Baseball
c - How fat you are.
d - How much prettier she is than you.
e - How he would spend the insurance money if you died.

According to the article, the best answer to this stupid question came
from Al Bundy, of Married With Children, who was asked it by his wife, Peg. "If I wanted you to know," Al said, "I'd be talking instead of thinking."

The other questions also have only one right answer but many wrong answers:

2 - "Do you love me?"

The correct answer to this question is, "Yes." For those guys who feel the need to be more elaborate, you may answer, "Yes, dear." Wrong answers include:

a - I suppose so.
b - Would it make you feel better if I said yes.
c - That depends on what you mean by "love".
d - Does it matter?
e - Who, me?

3 - "Do I look fat?"

The correct male response to this question is to confidently and emphatically state, "No, of course not" and then quickly leave the room. Wrong answers include:

a - I wouldn't call you fat, but I wouldn't call you thin either.
b - Compared to what?
c - A little extra weight looks good on you.
d - I've seen fatter.
e - Could you repeat the question? I was thinking about your insurance policy.

4 - "Do you think she's prettier than me?"

The "she" in the question could be an ex-girlfriend, a passer-by you were staring at so hard that you almost cause a traffic accident or an actress in a movie you just saw. In any case, the correct response is, "No, you are much prettier." Wrong answers include:

a - Not prettier, just pretty in a different way.
b - I don't know how one goes about rating such things.
c - Yes, but I bet you have a better personality.
d - Only in the sense that she's younger and thinner.
e - Could you repeat the question? I was thinking about your insurance policy.

5 - "What would you do if I died?"

Correct answer:

"Dearest love, in the event of your untimely demise, life would cease to have meaning for me and I would perforce hurl myself under the front tires of the first Domino's Pizza truck
that came my way."

Somebody is pregnant.

It aint me! LoL

Actually I don't think it's humanly possible for me to be pregnant.

However, my wife is. Yes...we are expecting our fourth (and last) child. After churning out 3 block headed boys, we'll be having a girl. The streak is over. LoL

Funny thing is that I didn't know it was the MALE who determined the sex of the baby. Don't blame me...I got a "C" in sex ed in college.

Nevertheless, I ask that you keep us in your prayers. I will admit that it was hard to keep this a secret. LoL. Sharing the news with the few who've known for a while was kinda tricky. It was hard to tell one person. And it was difficult to try to "sneak" and buy 5 cigars for my OCEAN CREW without them noticing. I even had to show a few of my BBM friends a picture of the ultrasound because the didn't believe me. They all know I'ma jokester! LOL. Nevertheless, I'm sharing the news with y'all now. In the process, I found out that 2 of my peeps are pregnant as well. Something in the water? Hahahah

Can you imagine how it'll be for this lil girl with 3 older brothers? People say I'ma spoil her. Hmmm. We'll see.

Picture me doing hair! Funny, aint it!

Here I am. Here we are. You see us as we take our stand.

You look with amazement. But you don't know this man.

Fearless. Powerful. Destined for success.

You can step to me if you want but I don't take no mess.

Never bitter. I could never be mad. It's just not me

I am the man that some wish that they could be

We are far from the dudes that you see on the 6 o'clock news

Ask me and I blow you away with my political views.

You see my walk. You love the way we bop down the street

Put some music on and watch us vibe to the beat

The mind of Martin, Malcolm, and Barack

The fight and drive of Tupac

We have what the young kids now call swag

It's just confidence. Admire it. Don't hate...don't be mad

Lover of our queens and those who preceded us to pave the way

You can try to kill me and my brethren...but we're here to stay

We are fathers, husbands, brothers, friends...all of the above

Our women stand by us and adore us. They always show us love

I see you staring, watching every move...just like you're a fan

Who am I? Who are we? We are what you wanna be but can't be. The intelligent black man.

What do you define as a real date?

Name 2 great places to take a date

If a person doesn't call or txt 2 days after a date, what would you do?

isthatyochick

I saw her.

I wasn't looking for her but I saw her.

She looked good, too.

One day last week, I was flipping through the channels and I saw her. There she was...in the middle of a rap video that came out in 2001. As usual, she was featured in a video that showed off her body but the song had nothing to do with the video. Typical for most rap videos. But she had IT.

Nice firm hips...

Toned and tanned legs...

Pressed long hair (or weave...i can't always tell the difference)...

Breasts that were more than a handful...

An azz that was meant for squeezing...lol

Lips that you could kiss all day.

She had IT! She had the kind of body that most men would drool over. In fact, more than a few men HAVE drooled over it. I asked myself..."Man, what is her name?" Who knows? Who cares? Do you see that body?

I really couldn't rememeber her name. She was a video vixen. Some women don't like video vixens. Most men love em. As I watched her dance and gyrate, I asked myself, "Wonder what she's doing now"? I mean, I'm SURE that she's not doing videos anymore. The shelf life for video vixens is not that long. What do you do when your body and face ain't the hottest on the block no more? Do they settle down and look to get married and have kids? Do they try to get into acting? I was once told that "women have it more difficult because they are always comparing themselves (and their bodies) to what they USED to look like." Well I guess that makes it tougher for video vixens who have to "retire".

Do they have a pension plan? What's next for them?

Can they go back to being a "regular chick"?

Will the regular chicks ever show them some love? Prolly not. LOL. Don't worry video vixen...the men love ya.

Are we products of our environment?

Are we victims of circumstance?

Maybe we're somewhere in between?


Relationships are a funny thing when you think about it. Especially when it comes to marriage. You have a man. You have a woman. These two people grew up separately and have lived vastly different lives. They find some commonalities within each other that brings them together. They grow close. Love ensues. Then they decide to spend the rest of their ENTIRE lives together and expect it to work. Sounds perfect, right?

Right!

LOL!

I'm being funny but you get my point. I was having a conversation with a good female friend of mine and we were discussing marriage. During the conversation, I realized how "different" some of my views were on marriage. These views were shaped by the marriage that I saw crumble right before my eyes. My parents divorced when I was 14. It came as a total shock. One day we were a happy family. The next day, they sat me and my younger brother down to tell us that they were getting a divorce. It hit me like a ton of bricks. They never ARGUED and yet they were splitting up? You don't understand how things are when you're that young. You learn as you get older. I've done a 10 yr bid in this marriage thing. LOL. I've learned some valuable lessons over the years. Marriage is hard. It's work. It's work...even when you don't wanna work. Just like love. Love is the ultimate verb. It's something you DO. Marriage is rewarding, tho. I hear people talk all the time about wanting to get married. There's nothing wrong with that. The question is...do you want to PUT IN THE WORK?? It's like saying..."I want to be in the NFL". But if you're not willing to get your body in shape, then it's all pointless.

My parents had a messy divorce. Dad got married again. Mom is still single. I don't think they were ever the friends that you need to be when they got married. Did they rush into it? I dunno...I wasn't here. I can't say that they hated each other when it was over but there was some extreme dislike. But a funny thing happened some 13 yrs later...they became grandparents. It was then that they had something in common. They went from being distant strangers to grandparents who marveled with pride about their new grandson. I laugh at them now. They talk all of time. Safe to say they are friends now. Last year, they came to my house to celebrate Deion's 5th grade graduation. They actually stayed under the same roof...for the first time in more than 25 yrs.

Friendships should come before marriage. A strong friendship is the foundation. Always keep that in mind.

As for my parents, it came after marriage. And I'm cool with that.

What was the best album of '94...Ready to Die, Illmatic, or southernplayalisticadillacmuzik?

#idontknowwhatyouseeinhim

Y'all know me.

I'm a hip hop head.

Always have been.

Always will be.

I was having a conversation the other day on twitter with my fellow hip hop heads on twitter...@rashanjamal, @lyric2go, and @eclectik. Rashan made a comment about a rapper and he said..."i don't know what y'all see in him." It wasn't a diss. He was merely stating that some people are popular in rap and he didn't understand why because they lack talent/skill. I totally understood him. It got me to thinking. There are a few cats who make me say...#idontknowwhatyouseeinhim

Lil Wayne - not sure when he became heralded as "the best rapper in the game". I still remember him saying "wobbly, wobbly, drop it like it's hot." Wayne is decent but he's extremely lazy as an MC. Best in the game? Shit, he wouldn't make my top 30. Wayne's a rapper. He aint no MC. There's a difference.

Rick Ross- overrated

Sheik Louch (from the LOX) - Never felt him. He always seemed to be overshadowed by Styles P and Jadakiss

Plies - what is he talkin bout?

Anybody with "Lil" or "Young" in front of their names - you're too lil or too young for me to listen to you

Nicki Minaj - take away her looks and what do you have...Charli Baltimore - 2011

E-40 - I just can't understand his jibberish

Brett Favre - yeah, I know this is 'sposed to be about hip hop but I dunno what y'all see in Brett Lorenzo Favre. I can think of at least 10 QBs I'd take over him. Favre took too many chances with the ball



Jim Jones - talentless

Drake - is he a rapper or is he a singer? Is he Fabolous or Tyrese?

Gucci Mane - why ask why?



Fat Joe - can't ride off Big Pun's coattails no more

Waka Flocka - see Gucci Mane

Maybe it's just me...but...idontknowwhatyouseeinhim or her.

i forgot

Sometimes you gotta open your eyes. You get a better understanding that way. I recently had to visit my oldest son's school to complete my parental mandatory volunteer hours. Deion, age 11, is in middle school and the volunteer hours are a prerequisite for attending his theme school. On this day, I was assigned to help out the in the cafeteria. Simple assignment. I had to help clean the tables once the students had finished eating. This was cool because it allowed me to have a seat on the stage and watch the the 6th, 7th, and 8th graders. I found the next 2 hours to be very interesting. I watched as the kids came in. The cool kids. The nerds. The girls. I was within earshot of the kids as they came in. As I played with my blackberry, I listened to some of their conversations. They ranged from being very silly to very serious. I even heard one 8th grade girl say..."He asked me if he could get some." Wow. These kids are different from when I was a youngin.


Or are they?


I mean, it's a typical theme school. A school of kids from middle to upper middle class black families. Not ONE tough kid in the whole school. LOL. Seriously, I don't think one kid (including Deion) could have survived a week at my middle school. Don't get it twisted, Williams Middle School in Florence, SC (my school) could never be confused with NYC or LA but we were tough. There a lotta soft kids here. Maybe it's because their parents are soft? Then it dawned on me. I forgot. I forgot what it was like to be that age. I can't imagine how it feels to be 11, 12, or 13 yrs old right now. I'll be the first to admit that I'm hard on Deion. I want him to be great at whatever he does. I'm hard on him about his grades because he's an 'A' student. You can't bring no 'C' in my house. Deion's the oldest so he has to set the example for his brothers. That said, I realized everything aint easy for him. He's better off than I was at his age. However, it won't be easy. The world ain't easy. He'll have the same peer pressures that I had. Drugs, sex, cigarettes, alcohol will all be there. I told him the other day about how I had to do my research by using something called an "encyclopedia" but he has the Internet. That makes it easier for him.


Technology is great but you can't lose your creativity. Kids don't know how to MAKE up games to play. They'd rather be in front of a tv than to be outside. Nevertheless, Deion is not in an easy world.


Spending time at the school reminded me that I forgot what it feels like to be a kid again. So the next time he makes me mad, maybe I won't yell at him. Or...maybe I will but I won't yell as loud as I normally do...
