**Warning..big hole in the wall**We interrupt the regularly scheduled Monday Musings for this urgent news bulletin. No efforts have been spared in making dreams come true. Our investigations have uncovered yet more joyous siblings that were brought together by sheer chance. I believe that original notice was prompted by the mrs. after watching an episode of The View.
Our mission statement is all about the family and we will never give up on helping the world.
I know that some of us have heard that we have a twin somewhere in the world. We may never get to see the person that has striking resemblance to our facial features. So we will try to dedicate various posts to bring loved ones together and reunite siblings that otherwise may not have ever had a chance to bond.
This is the philanthropic side of D.C. I know it's hard to believe but I must help save the world one set of siblings at a time.
So for the fourth installment I give you:
We would like to recognize the efforts of a fellow blogger that came across great information and passed it along to us. While surfing the internet, she came across this obvious set of siblings and passed the info onto me. After verification process was conducted, we decided that it was a clear case of 99.99% certainty.
Ms. Behaving was the first person to send me this link to add to my "Lost Siblings Reunion Day"

Keeping in line with the "theme days" so that I don't drain all of my reserve tank dry from working on book projects, recruiting, and blogging, there shall be another instituted theme day. Today and henceforth Wednesdays shall be named...WTF WEDNESDAY!!!!!
There is no set subject. Anything that is on your mind. It is an open forum where the first lines of each comment start with WTF...now that could mean what the frick, where the frick, why the frick, who the frick, etc., but each comment should start with WTF.
Have fun and keep it as clean as possible, fam.
Have a fantastic day!
At first glance, I thought there was nothing wrong with the picture below. It came to me as a part of an email attachment that many of you probably already saw. The title of the email was..."This is just nasty". Now normally the part of me that enjoys the macabre or the less than savory images is kept in check, but not this time. My curious nature got the best of me.
I opened the email only to be left with my face bunched up like I had just eaten a soup grape candy and my jaw nearly hit the floor.
I blew off the warning and was punished for not adhering to the red flag in my head. I had been introduced to the world of Jenkem or the more comical name...butt hash!
I also notice that a new reader to my blog posted on it at Thembi's WT Eff Wednesday. I love the theme day title. Smile!
Although I have a blog that was prepared to be posted today, my revolutionist ideologies will not be televised! I choose to work and blog hop a little bit. I thank every single person in my blog family for your support and comments.. Several new fam's posts have truly given me more appreciation of all of you.
I shudder to think what can be accomplished in the world of writing if we continue to draw inspiration from each other and support the creative flow in even this small community.
With the risk of sounding soft...I need everyone to keep up the good work so that I can draw from your strengths so that when you need it...I'm right there for you with your own reserves.
Enjoy, fam.
During a visit to our good friend's home last week, the mrs. and I happened to notice a tiny little guy crying to get our attention. We probably simultaneously looked down to notice a little puppy with the biggest eyes looking back at us.
We had been talking about getting another boy Shiba Inu a lot recently. She already had the name picked out and it was a matter of time.
Those plans went right out the door. We looked at this puppy and decided in less than 1 minute that he needed to come back home with us.
So let me introduce to you Celebrity's Lucky Luciano straight out of Cortney Gee's Celebrity Kennel's.

My friends I have come to bear witness to a less verbalized change in the system of dating. The tides have turned! I'm going to take you on my own personal time warp.
When I was a teenager in the 80's, I was about 6'1 and very slender. Dark brown skin, big nose, and kinda shy. That definitely was not the formula to get girls to notice me other than being able to play basketball well and run fast on the track. Yet the physical appeal for the majority of the women was quite different than how I looked in my teenage years. The light complexion, grey or green eyes and wavy/perm looking hair was "in" then. Though I was a jock, I was still missing some of the attributes that attracted girls. Now don't get me wrong, not all of the young ladies were shallow like that and I was veryyyyy thankful for the girls that like the brown skin, average joe's like me.
I found that I became a "good friend" or "brother" type figure to the girls that I had crushes on! Looking back...that was masterfully done! But at the time, I was taking a beating.
In the 80's, there were lots of movies where the nice guy was the friend who watched the beautiful female friend that he loved get played by dudes over and over again, to eventually ended up with the girl. WRONG!!!!!! Hollywood had me set up for failure, Jack!! That shit never happened like that in my life..yet, it made for a happily ever after romance in theory. Even shows like "Beauty and the beast" were popular and promoted that "boy I wish I could be with her" kind of thinking.
Well guess what...LOL..the joke is on the pretty boys now!! You know the ones..the ones that thought that they could skate through life because they were attractive and didn't maximize their opportunities in education or talents in athletics. I'm not hating..just keeping it real! If not for those dudes, the nice guys like me wouldn't be the "in" thing right now. I watched many hearts get broken, over and over again because women coveted that stereotype. Musicians that couldn't sing worth sh*t got over because of their "look"..Al B. Sure is top on a lot of my female friends list..LOL
It was a double edged sword to be a kid in the 80's, compared to now as a grown man. I endured quite a bit of heckling in my teen years to come back and hook up with
the prom queens down the road...(while they still looked good)!!! The tables have turned...now in the favor of the nice guys, good friends and the "oh,girl please..that's just______". By the way, I hated that shit and I know I'm not alone!!!!!!
This time around, the sincere nice guys that treat a woman with dignity, respect and become great friends, don't have to settle for being"oh, he's just a friend". We have a shot because now women think the "pretty boy's" are players because of previous experiences and even worse than that "on the down low".
Inspired to revisit the thought much by recent blogs by Bloopty Bloop's Oct 23rd post..thanks ya'll

For those of you that don't know me. Almost all of you...LOL! I have to share a piece of information that may mean nothing to you, yet it is the root of much agony for me.
I think most people have something that they consider a real pet peeve. I am going to share one of my biggest ones with you. It started a few years ago in Ohio. A fashion trend that irritated me to no end.
Some person, perhaps a teenager started wearing pajama pants out in public as regular attire. At first it was a few kids that I spotted, then it erupted into a city of young people that started coming out of the house...fresh out of bed and sporting their pajamas. In the store, walking down the street, at the bus stop, at the gas station and anywhere else in public view.
Party of six, please.
Wow...it was an amazing picnic at a park on the beach. We packed up the cooler and brought some wood and meat for the grill. Sunny with clear skies accompanied a gentle breeze with temperatures in the mid 70's. The food was straight up "delish". The view was spectacular and these guys got a chance to feel like they were back on the west coast. It was mad cool!
I might need more practice in getting 4 dogs to be still so I could take their picture. LOL!
Have a great Monday!
In the age of creative expression and photo shopping skills, it is very easy to generate a "different" look to any individual. I came across an email and had to share it with everyone.
Being a Poli-Sci major and a person that also loves a good laugh or two, let's be entertained with this game. Let's see who can name the individuals in drag.
smuckers anyone?
60's tv star?
"white chicks" part 2?
Grandma next door?
fashion designer mogul?
80's punk rock duo?

I love watching movies so when we got an invite to go to a screening of Cleveland Native Halle Berry's new film with Cortney and Miss Vickie, I was down like four flats on a dump truck.
Unfortunately, we got to the private screen too late to get in. It was a let down but we were able to get into another movie that was jussssssst starting...better yet...for free!
Ol' School Reel.

Here's a prime example of a WTF moment. WTF does the candy that I fell in love with 30 years ago still make me remember how good it was when i was a kid? Especially at the movies...I'm talking about my(drum roll please)

I was at home recently during the day and happened to catch a Maury Povich episode. This episode had a woman come to show and air all her dirty laundry. She had 13 different men tested to be the father of her child. 13 were not!
I was like "wtf"!!! 13 different dudes for one baby. That was really "special" to me. It was whack how the dude had a short video clip blasting her and her promiscuity. I was really tripping like...damn what city does she live in and did they provide AIDS testing too.
So anywho(man i sound like AB).........
dude starts out about how he has a woman and he's in love....never hooked up with her and "she's a f*****g liar and hoe, Maury!" They show the picture of the baby and the crowd goes awwww and starts booing this guy. I can't front, normally I don't watch this crap but it was kinda entertaining for a minute. Dude brings his woman onto the stage and she acts like she wants to fight the accusing mother whom of course is calling him a liar and saying "watch mothfu****...you gon take care of your responsibility"....So I sit up a lil closer and Maury says"the results are in.....We will be right back after this quick commercial break" I'm like..damn this is fu***d up...I gotta wait too.
Commercial goes off and the envelope is opened and Maury says" You are NOT the father...." mannnnnn this girl goes running off the stage.....yelling , fallin all on the floor and crying...Maury goes after her and comforts her telling her that he wont stop till they find the baby daddy! I got the main idea though....... Just keep giving them names up !!!!!
Here's the only thing I want to tell the many, many women that bring all these dudes to tv and expose themselves on national televison for the amuse3ment of the viewers.....USE RUBBERS!!! DAMN
And to the Fellas....USE RUBBERS!!! PLUS...Stop making your next door neighbor the victim of your quest to break Wilt Chamberlin's record of 20,000 women.
Y'all are playin yourselves because your misery is entertainment for the masses.
This has been my Public Service Announcment!
well...i just happened across a link that had me about to fuggin lose my mind featuring our favorite cartoon rabbit character...Bugs.
Enjoy the lessons that you get from watching this cartoon.
and if that wasn't enough for ya...then how about my favorite viewing pleasure. An obvious person of another persuasion, in "costume"...
is it me? or is there something really wrong with what happened in these images? I wonder if ole boy even tried to do the "soft shoe".
Now I know that these were made in the 50's or so, but c'mon now. Didn't they have any common sense at all? You let me know...
This has been my Public Service Announcment!
Ok, now I feel really bad. I became the bad guy for a moment and did a huge injustice to my fellow black man. Well, how did you do that, DC? You don't have to twist my arm to tell it.(deep sigh)
ok...maybe a month and a half ago I was dealing with a next door neighbor's kid that was throwing water ballons over in our yard when the dogs were outside, riding her little scooter through our grass and coming into our gated yard without permission. And if that wasn't enough, her mother, with whom we never even exchanged names, was often leaving her bedroom window open...which of course opened into our driveway. Apparently she was a loud moaner, because everyone in our home heard her getting "done" on more than a few occasions.
She left suddenly and a new neighbor moved in. They knew each other and the transition took less than a week. This time, it was a guy with his girlfriend and her 4 yr old son. I was like "oh boy, here we go again". He moved in with pimped out vehicles(like in the tv show), braids and a lot of friends that rolled up on motorcycles and other pimped out cars whilst pumping loud sounds at night.
Soon though, the cars stopped coming over and the music hardly ever got loud. We spoke and exchanged names. In reality, this dude has been an extremely good neighbor. I needed a jack and 4-way for my tire one day. He was right there, even offered to help me to the work. He closed my gate when I left it open one day. He is very polite and kind to my family and is genuinely a cool dude. I haven't ever experienced the over the fence/talk neighbor before. It's pretty nice.
I misjudged him because of his looks and what he drives.
I'm guilty. I didn't know that I had a prejudiced bone in my body until now. Who knew? I hope this true story prevents you from doing the same to someone else.
This has been my Public Service Announcement.
Now I can't front and say that I don't have Limewire my desktop. I'd have to say that this hollow victory is the first step in the major bullying tactics. Frankly, this is some BS!!
I know that some of us have heard that we have a twin somewhere in the world. We may never get to see the person that has striking resemblance to our facial features. So we will try to dedicate various posts to bring loved ones together and reunite siblings that otherwise may not have ever had a chance to bond.
This is the philanthropic side of D.C. I know it's hard to believe but I must help save the world one set of siblings at a time.
I love youtube!!! I am going to take a page from some of my newfound blog family members today! I'm going to give you some major nostalgia today!!
I wish that the children of the new millenium could have experienced some of the educational shows that I saw on Saturday mornings. Well, since they didn't have them now..we can bring it to them via Youtube!
This video is for everyone...
WARNING: YOU WILL BE SINGING THIS FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS
It's back!! School House Rock, Son!

Ok, so I borrowed a couple of cliches and strung them together...LOL!!!
I certainly didn't think of myself as the Master but when I watched this movie as a kid---I got extra hyped up. I remember being in my martial arts instructors house asking him if he thought any of those moves were real and he said, "yeah, they're real...real Hollywood." I knew what he meant, but I wanted to think he was wrong so I learned this movie's moves so I could be the next martial arts movie star. It didn't work and I could only do some of them.
In case you forgot what the last scene was like, check it out right here.
What movie did you know all the words and the body movements to? This was but one of mine. What's yours?
Enjoy the clip and the trip down memory lane for the people in my age group. Smile!
Happy Tuesday!!
