One Week Later...


Surprise surprise!!! It's been one week since you went and voted for all you favorite democratic candidates. Anything in your life changed yet? I didn't think so. Maybe we should give them another week. Maybe two. Maybe ol' Ddot is just impatient and we should give them 6 months to get things together. Or maybe folks need to wake up and realize that no matter who is in control things are never perfect and usually get worse despite good intentions by some.

Damn I'm pessimistic.

Nah I'm just realistic. This country is well over 200 years old and the change of power goes back and forth between this group and that group and yet if you ask anybody 30 plus they'll tell you that things constantly get worse despite advances in science and technology. Odd isn't it? I graduated high school in 1994. The bad kids were the dudes that smoked in the bathroom or maybe left school to get lunch from McDonalds. If there was a fight in school it was big news. Now at my old school the kids walk through metal detectors and have a police officer on duty. Same school just a little over ten years later. Amazing. My point? It doesn't really matter. The democrats will ensure you make more money per hour and then tax the crap out of you to start social programs. The republicans cut taxes(especially for the rich) so that you get more money on your check and cut programs because they believe you should do what you want with your money. Both interesting points of view and obviously neither is overwhelmingly better than the other. So keep your vote or die t-shirts. I know plenty of people who voted and died anyway. One.

The Redefinition...Lesson 2...

You think you know what a man is. But you've been brainwashed. You watch too much television, too many movies. Put away those romance novels. I'm redefining what it is to be a real man. Take notes and witness the maturation of a KING.

A real man doesn't need to put 24 inch rims on his SUV. He's secure enough in his manhood to not crave the unnecessary attention. Is that the dude you're drawn to? Then you deserve what you get. I pull up with no tint on my windows listening to some smooth r&b or jazz. Am I boring to you? Then you deserve what you get. Do you spend all your time adding friends to your Myspace page? Well while you're adding random dudes with 10 year old pictures on their profiles to your Myspace I'm carving out my space in this world. Does it turn you on when your "thug" pulls out a wad of cash from his jeans that are falling off his butt? Cool. I rarely carry cash. I settle for platinum and black cards. Yeah a real man has good credit. You have a baby by him and wonder why he doesn't pay child support after full well knowing he didn't pay his bills before the kid came along. You deserve what you get. So what have we learned here today?
