Comment: This is a doggone shame.>>>>>NEW YORK – A man stabbed a city bus driver to death over being denied a free ride, then escaped on foot Monday in the first killing of an on-duty New York City bus driver in more than a quarter-century, authorities said.
The man got on the bus in Brooklyn shortly after noon, swiped an invalid fare card, sat down and asked for a free card to change routes.
The driver, 46-year-old Edwin Thomas, told him he couldn't get a transfer because he hadn't paid; the attacker then punched him and stabbed him in the torso in front of other passengers, police said.
The attacker fled, and Thomas was taken to a hospital where he was pronounced dead. Police are offering a $12,000 reward for any information on the culprit.
Passenger Benjamin Stacking told television reporters that he heard the commotion.
"It's crazy because the bus driver was cool," Stacking said. "He let me on. I was 50 cents short. He let me on and gave me a transfer."
Thomas was a seven-year, "valued employee" who will be sorely missed, said Elliot Lee Sander, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority's executive director and chief executive.
"Bus operator Thomas was killed while serving the people of New York City," Sander said. "This is an extraordinary tragedy for the city and the MTA."
The MTA said the last killing of an on-duty city bus driver was in 1981.
Gov. David Paterson and Mayor Michael Bloomberg issued statements mourning Thomas and praising his work for public transportation.
"In Edwin's memory, I ask all New Yorkers riding public transit tonight or tomorrow to take an extra moment to say 'thank you' to our New York City Transit workers and I ask everyone to keep Edwin Thomas' family and loved ones in your prayers," the mayor's statement said.

Comment: LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – A television anchorwoman killed in her home had been sexually %*$aulted and beaten so badly in a suspected burglary that her jaw shattered and she broke a hand while trying to fend off her attacker's blows, her parents said Monday.
"This monster stole my daughter's innocence," said Patti Cannady, the mother of Anne Pressly, on NBC's "Today."
"He took her life. He took her identity. He took our lives," she said.
Police Lt. Terry Hastings did not dispute her remarks and those of her husband, Guy, but declined to offer specifics about the attack. Police and prosecutors have refused to say whether Pressly, 26, was sexually %*$aulted during the Oct. 20 attack in Little Rock.
"A lot of those details, we want the jury to hear those first," Hastings said.
The 26-year-old anchorwoman for KATV died Oct. 25. An arrest warrant used to pick up Curtis Lavelle Vance, 28, was released Monday but doesn't mention a sexual %*$ault.
Vance has been assigned three public defenders, who began talking with him Monday afternoon. He remains in jail without bond and has yet to enter a plea in the Pressly slaying.
If prosecutors don't seek the death penalty, Vance will face life in prison if convicted of capital murder. In addition, he faces rape and residential burglary charges in Marianna, about 90 miles east, Detective Sgt. Carl McCree said.
Police worked for weeks without a named suspect in the Pressly slaying until DNA collected at Pressly's home matched a sample from an unsolved April rape in Marianna. Authorities there suggested officers investigate Vance, a suspect in several burglaries.
Vance denied his involvement in Pressly's slaying and allowed a DNA sample to be tested, police said. The DNA matched evidence taken from her home, and investigators now say they've solved her case "with all scientific certainty."
McCree has said Vance became a suspect in the burglaries there after his girlfriend sold allegedly stolen items to a pawn shop, though none of Pressly's possessions turned up.
Patti Cannady said she found her daughter in bed, bloody and beaten, after she didn't answer a wake-up call. She said every bone in her daughter's face had been broken.
"Her jaw pulverized so badly that the bone had come out of it," Cannady said. "I actually thought that her throat, it possibly been cut, but that was possibly the first knockout punch. Her entire skull had numerous fractures from which she suffered a massive stroke."

Comment: SINGAPORE – Oil prices fell to a 3-year low below $48 a barrel Tuesday in Asia, as more bleak U.S. economic news and plunging stocks markets darkened investor expectations for crude demand.
Light, sweet crude for January delivery was down $1.50 to $47.78 a barrel, the lowest since 2005, in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange by midafternoon in Singapore.
The contract plummeted overnight $5.15 to settle at $49.28 after more signs of a weakening U.S. economy sent the Dow Jones industrial average down 7.7 percent.
Most Asian markets also sank Tuesday, with Japan's benchmark Nikkei 225 index falling 6.4 percent, the Korea Composite Stock Price Index sliding 3.4 percent and Hong Kong's Hang Seng index dropping 4.8 percent.
Oil investors have looked to equity markets as a barometer of economic growth sentiment.
"The basic story remains the same; consumption worries continue to depress the oil market," said David Moore, commodity strategist at Commonwealth Bank of Australia in Sydney. "Recent data out of the U.S. and other countries backs up the view that consumption is weakening."
The National Bureau of Economic Research reported that the U.S. economy has been in a recession since December 2007 and the current downturn will last until the middle of 2009, the most severe slump since the 1981-82 recession.
What began as a financial crisis in the sub-prime mortgage sector has spread throughout the U.S. economy, including industrial production. The Institute for Supply Management said its gauge of manufacturing activity fell more than expected to 36.2 in November. A reading below 50 indicates the sector is contracting.
The Commerce Department reported that construction spending dropped by 1.2 percent in October, bigger than the 0.9 percent decline many analysts expected.
Meanwhile, expectations of another production cut by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries has failed to spark a rally in prices.
OPEC Secretary-General Abdullah El-Badri said the group would likely reduce output quotas by between 1 million and 1.5 million barrels at a meeting on Dec. 17 in Algeria, according to a report on Iranian state television Monday.
OPEC, which accounts for about 40 percent of global supply, cut output by 1.5 million barrels a day in October, bringing total cuts to around 2 million barrels a day this year.
"We think by next year OPEC will be somewhat successful in tightening supply and underpinning prices," Moore said. "You have to wonder where the oil price would be now without the OPEC cuts."
Moore said he expects an average oil price of $74 a barrel for 2009.
In other Nymex trading, gasoline futures fell 1.83 cent to $1.09 a gallon. Heating oil dropped 2.24 cents to $1.59 a gallon while natural gas for January delivery slid 8.7 cents to $6.52 per 1,000 cubic feet.
In London, January Brent crude fell $1.88 to $46.09 on the ICE Futures exchange.

Comment: NEW YORK – Tina Fey's husband is talking about something the "30 Rock" actress would rather not discuss: the scar on her left cheek.
In an interview in Vanity Fair, Jeff Richmond says a stranger slashed Fey's face when she was 5 years old. He says the incident occurred in the front yard of her house.
Says Richmond: "That scar was fascinating to me. This is somebody who, no matter what it was, has gone through something. And I think it really informs the way she thinks about her life."
Fey says talking about the attack would seem like exploiting it.
Says Fey: "It's really almost like I'm able to forget about it, until I was on-camera, and it became a thing of `Oh, I guess we should use this side' or whatever. Everybody's got a better side."

Comment: Good Morning World, Especially Georgia. I hope all those who voted for Barack Obama in Georgia will go out and vote for Jim Martin today. It's not going to be easy, but Barack needs all the help he can get. Republican policies have dominated our nation for too long and we have lost our way. We need to get back on course so that we can reclaim our dreams of peace and prosperity in this nation and the world. Obama nees help in the Senate and the House if he is going to be able to be effective. Let's give Mr. Obama what he needs to get our country back on course. Don't for one moment think that your vote today doesn't matter. It does, today more than ever . . . . VOTE JIM MARTIN AND KEEP YOUR GUNS, KEEP YOUR RELIGION, KEEP YOUR FEAR AND GIVE ME THE CHANGE. GO JIM MARTIN IN GEORGIA. WE NEED YOU TO BARACK THE VOTE IN GEORGIA.

I got a gut feeling that the Dems will pick up in Minnie so it all boils down to GA...you can see the desperation in the GOP's eyes. They will use this race as a way to counter Obama. Spread the word, get folk to the polls, give them a ride, the black vote is what will send this home. And they (GOP) don't think ya'll be interested to vote in this runoff(since Barack won presidency) so show them WRONG! BARACK THE VOTE!!!

Comment: Hey family! RANDOMNESS: I would highly recommend purchaseing Webroot Spy Sweeper with AntiVirus for your home PC. I thought that Norton was good, but I ended up having all kinda of viruses and adware on my PC --106 as a matter of fact. My PC was slow, pop ups were coming up (although my settings were high), porn ads would pop up (although I ain't a Red Tube fiend like my FFA fam)... It was a hot mess. The sweeper was on sale for $29 at Best Buy. Wise purchase if you ask me. ANYWAY--- TRUE BLOOD FANS-- I like the show, but it doesn't grab me like The Wire. The first couple of episodes were kinda slow and those fake Lousiana accents irritate me--especially Tara's. I love LaFayette! lol Anyway, yall do know who is bleeding in the back of that car, right?

Comment: Pirates fire on US cruise ship in hijack attempt NAIROBI, Kenya – Pirates chased and shot at a U.S. cruise liner with more than 1,000 people on board but failed to hijack the vessel as it sailed along a corridor patrolled by international warships, a maritime official said Tuesday. The liner, carrying 656 international passengers and 399 crew members, was sailing through the pirate-infested Gulf of Aden on Sunday when it encountered six bandits in two speedboats, said Noel Choong who heads the International Maritime Bureau's piracy reporting center in Malaysia.
The pirates fired at the passenger liner but the larger boat was faster than the pirates' vessels, Choong said.
"It is very fortunate that the liner managed to escape," he said, urging all ships to remain vigilant in the area.
The U.S. Navy's 5th Fleet, based in Bahrain, said it was aware of the failed hijacking but did not have further details.
Ship owner Oceania Cruises Inc. identified the vessel as the M/S Nautica.
In a statement on its Web site, the company said pirates fired eight rifle shots at the liner, but that the ship's captain increased speed and managed to outrun the skiffs.
All passengers and crew are safe and there was no damage to the vessel, it said.
The Nautica was on a 32-day cruise from Rome to Singapore, with stops at ports in Italy, Egypt, Oman, Dubai, India, Malaysia and Thailand, the Web site said. Based on that schedule, the liner was headed from Egypt to Oman when it was attacked.
The liner arrived in the southern Oman port city of Salalah on Monday morning, and the passengers toured the city before leaving for the capital, Muscat, Monday evening, an official of the Oman Tourism Ministry said Tuesday. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media.

Comment: The head of a shipping agency branch in Salalah had contact with the liner there.
"They talked about pirates opening fire at their ship off the Somalian shores," Khalil Shaker told The Associated Press by telephone. He said he had no details of the attack.
It is not the first time a cruise liner has been attacked. In 2005, pirates opened fire on the Seabourn Spirit about 100 miles (160 kilometers) off the Somali coast. The faster cruise ship managed to escape, and used a long-range acoustic device — which blasts a painful wave of sound — to distract the pirates.
International warships patrol the area and have created a security corridor in the region under a U.S.-led initiative, but the attacks have not abated.
In about 100 attacks on ships off the Somali coast this year, 40 vessels have been hijacked, Choong said. Fourteen remain in the hands of pirates along with more than 250 crew members.
In two if the most daring attacks, pirates seized a Ukrainian freighter loaded with 33 battle tanks in September, and on Nov. 15, a Saudi oil tanker carrying $100 million worth of crude oil.
Ukraine's Foreign Ministry spokesman Vasyl Kyrylych said Monday that negotiations with Somali pirates holding the cargo ship MV Faina are nearly completed, the Interfax news agency reported.
A spokesman for the Faina's owner said Sunday that the Somali pirates had agreed on a ransom for the ship and it could be released within days.
Somalia has not had a functioning government since 1991, and pirates have taken advantage of the country's lawlessness to launch attacks on foreign shipping from the Somali coast. Around 100 ships have been attacked so far this year.
Somali prime minister Nur Hassan Hussein said Tuesday that his country has been torn apart by 18 years of civil war and cannot stop piracy alone.
"This needs a tremendous effort," Hussein told The Associated Press. He has appealed for international troops, as his government's Ethiopian allies have said they would pull out their forces by the end of the year.
Ethiopia, the region's military powerhouse, has been integral in boosting the government. But Islamic insurgents have now seized control of all of southern Somalia except for the capital and the parliamentary seat of Baidoa.

But on some real talk...I remember back in late '96 I was traveling up to New Jersey to see my dad when I decided to use a back road in Delaware instead of the 95. It was raining very heavy, like monsoon heavy. Instead of waiting until the next day I headed up. Cars were driving slow and clogging up traffic so I turned off the main road (Route 13) and used some backroad that I thought would've got me closer to the Delaware Memorial Bridge. Never made it...car stalled out in a huge body of water in some Delaware lowlands and I had to swim close to 500 yards in dark, murky freezing water and walking several miles to a service station. I thought I was going to die that night while I was swimming because the current was strong with the water pulling me towards the Deleware Bay...

Contrary to the norm on college campuses, our Sigmas were the most popular frat while I was there during 1992 - 1997. Now, it could have been b/c the Kappas and the Ques were always on probation for foolishment, but I digress! hehehehe

My dream was to marry a blue collar worker from Bridgestone. They made nice chedda and worked 3 three 12 hour shifts and then 2 12 hour shifts in rotation and mostly at night. I thought that would be the most delightful marital situation.

Comment: Yelleyw, my parents put me and my brother in swim class -- he learned but I didn't. I never got in the water -- I'd scream bloody murder when they tried to put me in it! My dad tried to teach me, my cousin tried to teach me when she was a lifeguard, my next door neighbor tried to teach me. I just don't have the capacity to WANT to learn to swim, it's terrifying. PLUS, I'm not messing up my hair just to say I know how to swim.

Comment: DJ-- That is absolutely HORRIBLE! See, something like that would be my worst nightmare. I almost drowned when I was about 5 at Sesqui Park(remember that park near Columbia?). My cousin swam out and saved me. I never had the desire to swim again. LOVELY-- My F4A sisters in Cali did NOT tell me that I had to cross a bridge to get to Fairfield last month. AND, they had the nerve to call me WHILE I was driving across the bridge. I almost pizzled my pants when the phone rang because I was already nervous. That is one of the things that I am not looking forward to when I move out there. In order to go to San Fran, you GOTTA cross the Golden Gate, San Mateo, or a few other bridges--unless you drive about an hour out of the way. AND, if you want to catch the train into the city, that sommabish goes UNDER WATER in the San Fransisco Bay to get you across. And, knowing my luck I will be on the bridge when an earthquake decides to hit. Dayum, I am scaring myself! lol

I know the daily swim lessons in the summer and the weekly lessons year around will pay off some day.

While it's not high in the air like the Golden Gate or the Verrazano (NYC) it's low to the water and like 20 miles long! There's a point where your on this bridge and all you see is Cargo ships and water! I'm talking about being in the middle of NOWHERE! And you almost drwoned at Sesqui? Girl, that used to be my SPOT!

My parents had us in EVERYTHING as kids and I'm glad cause I have no prob swimming, skiing, biking, etc. LAWD>> Well almost drowning as a child is a legit reason for having a fear of water. In middle school they were teaching us how to raft so they had big ol rafts in the pool. I was clowning around with my friends and got my leg wrapped in that roping on the side and fell in and couldn't get out for a min cause I panicked. Everyone thought I was playin but when I finally got loose I was buggin out. I already knew how to swim so I wasn't scared of the water but I stopped goofin off after that.

Comment: 12, WELCOME BACK!!! >Nubs, The Chesapeake Bay Bridge is in Virginia and connects Virginia Beach (Southside) to the Eastern Shore of Virginia. It's used as an alternate route to traveling up I-95N to get to NYC and other northern points. About six, maybe seven years ago it was a two lane bridge with one lane traveling in each direction. Everytime you passed an 18 wheeler your car would be sucked into the trailer's drag. Now, they've added another set of bridges so that you have four lanes traveling North and South except for when the bridge goes under water into the tunnels...yes, tunnels! And two lane tunnels at that! There's been alot of people that have died on that bridge. >HK, Hallucination Jones? *lightbulb going off* I'm feeling that!

And she wonders why I still call her Mommy Dearest.

Ok, so one sunday, me and her were cutting up. her father was preaching hard...you know, the rear of the back and the hand of the ear kind of preaching. The church was right with him, shouting amen and hallelujah. Something had happened, and my friend and I were dying laughing. In the middle of his sermon, in the same preaching voice, the pastor said, "And un Beh-ver-lee uh, when I get home un, I'm gonna wear you out un" and kept right on with his sermon. I looked at her and busted out laughing, but she was in tears.

Comment: *dramatic entrance* Hey my babies:-) I missed y'all like CA-RAZAY!!!! Okay, here's the gist of everything...And y'all know I'm dramatic, so bare with me...Lemme give you the bulk of it first...PART I---I had an almost near death allergic reaction to a medication that was prescribed by my renal/kidney dr. approx. a month ago. It all began back in April when I went to one of my quarterly visits and he had done some labwork on me and stated that my uric acid was high so he wrote me a prescription for a drug called Allopurinol. So, I back in April I went to get this drug filled at Walgreens...I went to pick it up and the lady was like "Ma'am, are you picking this one up for gout"??? I was like "WTH...GOUT???" I ain't got no gout! So, I told her that I'd just leave it there, must've been some sorta mistake...fast forward 6 months later to my Oct. checkup...my dr. asks me if I've been taking the allopurinol and I said 'no, I haven't because the lady said it was for gout and I don't have gout'. So, again, he urged me to take it...Now, I began taking this medication around the middle/end of Oct. and then one day, actually Sun., Nov. 16th to be exact, WHAM! 'Member I had passed out at church??? I already gave y'all the spill on that, I went to the ER, they told me I was dehydrated, yada yada yada...Okay, so I took off Monday Nov. 17th & Tues. Nov. 18th. Came back to work on Wed. Nov. 19th. And I was cool...so I thought. People kept asking me how I was doing and my response was "Ahhh, I'm okay...not 100%, but I'm okay." So, I actually laid off all meds for that week...but I began taking my high blood pressure meds & the allopurinol once again on Sunday night, Nov. 23rd. The next morning, I felt sick...as if I had some type of virus or something...so I went to see my primary dr. She told me that I had a virus and prescribed me something for it. One thing that she did do, which saved my life, is sent me to the lab after my appt. to get some blood drawn just to be on the safe side. So, tues. rolls around, I'm still feeling sick...Wed., it's WAY worse...I had diarrhea & vomiting all throughout tues. night/wed. morn. and I couldn't walk w/o feeling as if I was gonna pass out...I kept feeling hot & cold and I had the chills. He had to go to work so I had him to take me to my momma's house and I just laid down in her bed for a few hours. Meanwhile, my primary dr. called me and said that my bloodwork looked really bad and that my liver enzymes were up EXTREMELY high and that I needed to get to the ER IMMEDIATELY! She thought that it was possibly Hep. C.

I sang with the great Mattie Moss Clark (their mom), and this is the God's honest truth...if your section was off key, she would throw a shoe in your direction. Sis Clark didn't play. She would give Twinkie the blues.

Comment: So, I went to the ER, didn't have to wait for 80 hours cuz my dr. had faxed over all of my paperwork...When I went into the ER, my blood pressure was 66/39. I was fading fast...They gave me emergency IV's and they were monitoring my health closely trying to figure out what the problem was. After being in the ER back room for about 6/7 hours, they finally checked me into ICU. They had to send me to ICU because my blood pressure was not staying stable by itself, they had to give me meds to keep it from going back down that low. So, yes kids, the ICU is were I spent my Thanksgiving. It wasn't all that bad...my family all came up there and brought me Turkey food but of course it just wasn't the same. So, I spent another day in ICU, then I was later as.signed a room on Friday. After various blood work & labs, they finally reached the conclusion that I had a severe allergic reaction to the allopurinol. I broke out in a disgusting rash all over my body, including my face. So, to fight off the allergic reaction, they gave me prednisone, yes, steroids. So the adverse reaction to that is, yep, you guessed it 25 LBS WORTH OF WATER WEIGHT!!! So, everything on my body is swollen from my snausage looking toes to my dimpled baby doll hands. My knees, my stomach, my back, my neck, my face, ERR'THANG, IS SWOLLEN! And to top it all off, the prednisone makes my sugar SKYROCKET so now I'm on insulin and I have to check my blood sugar 4x per day. Thank God that he has kept me sane through this ordeal because it's a helluva lot to bare and it's extremely overwhelming to go from losing 17 lbs, to gaining 25 lbs of water weight and swelling within a weeks time. Also, going from not having sugar to having sugar, even if it is temporary, is overwhelming. But that's the least of my concerns. Now, my kidneys are even more so outta wack because of this shock to my body so I'll be visiting my kidney dr. moreso now to try to get everything back on track. My liver is back to normal, praise God, one less thing to worry about, but I definitely need continued prayer. I thank God for being right there next to me and I thank him for my life & my family. I also thank him that they're weaning me off the prednisone slowly but surely (over 2 wks) so then my sugar will be back to normal, my kidneys WILL be back stable, and I will no longer feel as if I'm a stuffed Turkey:-) The End...

There are always a few in a congregation who don't even pay attention to the sermon, but just like clockwork, they will plug in a catch phrase.

Our salaries will remain the same. She said at 4pm today our president will meet with the company. There will be a staff reduction. I could tell something was going on with her today because she wasn't her usual chipper self. She had quite a few closed door meetings and her office door is never closed. I don't believe I'm one of the people being laid off PRAISE GOD! However, I will have to help out some of the directors from time to time....Yesterday I was thanking God that I had a job and that I had benefits. I am glad he spared me. My boss isn't doing so good. She didn't want to let anyone go. Although I don't know who it is. This is sad.....One good thing I found out today, I was made an offer for part-time employment which starts this weekend. The timing of that is good. I can pay down my debt and save....this economy will rise again that's for sure.

Is it a new trend for these latino immigrants to revisit their former employers and kill them. Two last week alone. One in Chevy Chase(a doctor and his wife) and a little old lady in maryland up the street. They had been altering her checks and even used her money to buy a car.And had the nerve to kill her and burn her crib to make it look like a fire. WTH

I started crashing house parties on Fort Jackson. Does the name Scipio ring a bell? First name starts with an R? That's not who I hung with but that's who was shooting up the parking lot. Dude was wildin' and got locked up for shooting up some kids on Broad River. I heard a rumor that he was on SC's Death Row, I dunno how true.

Reruns of Steve Harvey on BET??? I'on think so! I actually do my body good by walking (wobbling) around cuz everything is so swollen that I look & feel like one of those floats in the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade. >ylawd, girl you can stiff it out! LOL Oh, and throughout this entire ordeal, my 17. y/o daughter has been holding it DOWN! She's been the lil' lady of the house. Here & hubby have been goin' at it cuz he says she thinks she's grown, but she's was just tryna be responsible and she definitely did the damn thang! GON' HEAD PD!!! And my baby boy made sure that all of his school clothes, undies and socks were clean and laid out each night before AND I was told that he cleaned his ears too, YIPEEE!!! For real though, my babies held it DOWN! Hubby was a nervous wreck! LOL He did his part too of course, but my babies truly came through. I'm so proud of them:-) >creneej, you think they'd let me fall? Hell they might...I do have all this extra girth on right now so I might night be the lightest to catch right about now...*waving hard* Hey letmein! Girl I'll be alright...I just ain't neva been on the 'juice' befo so I had no idea what to expect.

Comment: Ok, ok, ok. I can't leave. Um what's up with the 3rd degree. Is J77's position more sacred than any of our's. I understand what y'all are saying about kids being taught etc., but I'm thinking and hoping that we all got sense enough to know right from wrong and do our jobs in the process. Truth be told any of us who are punching someone else's clock may want to take a second look at how much time we spend here, if it comes down to ethics. I'm just saying that it seems odd to me that we have singled out a particular individual to criticize their time on the board, yet have not look at our on. But I didn't think that is why we were here on the board. I'm not interested in how much anyone posts in relationship to the job they hold. I'm hoping everyone uses common sense and good judgment while they are on this board. But if we are going to single a person out for the type, contents, subject, etc., of their posts, then we need to hold the mirror up to ourselves first. This just got unfun.

The choice is up to you but don't think you won't be asked questions out of the ordinary. We try not to get as deep as the other boards but we do have our days where we want to know. I remember getting my *ss chewed out when I first started reading the F4A and I made the mistake of saying that if I found a wallet with $400 in it, would I give it back. I said no and LORD and behold YLAWD was all over my black %*$! LOL....like I said, you can roll with us or roll without us but I know for a fact that the love here is better than all of the other boards combined.

Comment: well then i'm sorry you take offense. AGAIN, IF and i do mean IF you are a teacher, then you should not be on here posting all day and night, and you were prior to last week when you were off and this week now. you're not so slow w/ the comments being made, but question why we feel that way? as a mother of 2 Black boys, i have a serious issue w/ any teacher who has online cyber-beefs via myspace at the age of 31, or is in any blog whining about the lack of good men, and why they seem to attract losers. i was nice last week w/ responding but i've lost my patience w/ the bullshyt. you get what you put out there. noone and i repeat NOONE wants to be with someone who whines and complains about every dam thing and then switches up. now if u get upset, 2 tears in a bucket and shorty says fukkit. u asked for advice, and you're going to get it. if you can't take it, too bad. just because u choose not to ask a question doesn't make anyone else wrong for asking it.

I am nice and caring about everyone but when I feel like I am being talked asbout I get mad. I just request that you ask. If anyone had asked before all the comments had been made there would have been no need for me to get angry. I would have answered and that would have been it. Even yesterday when it became obvous what the deal was, I started no drama and was not going to start any today either but my hand was forced.

Javonne, I think most of us have desk jobs and deceptively looking busy is easy for us because we just have to sit at a desk and not have much interaction with others. I personally dont care what you do, it has no effect on me but I guess people were just curious because teacher usually means standing in front of a class lecturing or working with kids in a hands on kindof way. Your situation is obviously different so dont take offense, just change the topic.

Comment: Here is the tip of the day for Tuesday December 2, Stress Management:
Year end can be a difficult time in the world and can cause a lot of stress. Here are four solutions when dealing with stress.
Avoiding hassles - This can help you to eliminate some of the minor irritations that lead to chronic negative stress.
Controlling lifestyle change - Don't change your entire lifestyle because one of the variables are different.
Take a break - Sometimes you need a little distance from your problems to figure out how to deal with situations effectively.
Finding help - This is the best known solution when you feel overwhelmed or unable to deal with stress on your own. You can start by approaching your supervisor/manager or CompuPay’s Human Resources department. Communicate your stresses and work together to find a solution

However, what the hell happens in my life at 3:40 is my damn business and it does not concern you or anyone else. I asked for advice, got it, and moved on. you are the one still harping on the %*$! DAYS later. let that %*$! go just as I have! I have been praying to forgive and forget all of the things from my past...just as I told someone yesterday. However, some days are better than most and I have had some bad days. But praise God that I have been able to feel a manifestation that God is coming and helping me through it all. If you can't get with it, ignore my posts and keep it pushing.

I am now at a point where I teach tchaikovsky and the nutcracker to my kids in honor of christmas. in January I will be back to lecture, play and playing the piano. if you see me on here for a log period of time, something special is happening, a field trip or a video or something. when you lecture kids for months they shut you out. a teacher must change u how she teaches in order to keep the kids interested. There it is. all in a nutshell. there is more to it but too much to tell. videos are my only downtime most of the time.

OK let me clear the air here. I KNOW that my silliness/sarcasm is simply that...sarcasm and sillines. I like to laugh and make others laugh. But to be honest, I don't care what you or anybody else is doing on YO' job. I'm thankful for what I have a career which I love and grateful all of you have jobs (except for those who are posting from prison *sideeye*) & we all can share resources. But what I can't appreciate is the constant belittling of my brothers b/c of 1 failed relationship or some other azz clown who doesn't know how to treat a woman. And if he doesn't know how to treat a woman, he's not taking care of himself. I love all of you that's real talk...but I'll be dammed if I let anybody come out of pocket. It's offensive. EFF THAT. Y'all know I don't mess too much cause i don't do petty. But I'll pull a razor and lemon out if I must. I'm done...Have a happy period...ALWAYS!!!

LOL I don't expect anyone to understand but I have spent a large part of my life doing for others and neglecting who I was. I ws always afraid to stand up for myself and what was fair to me. I let people walk over me because I wanted to be understood guess. I bent over backwards for everone but it NEVER seemed to be enough. about 6 months ago I decided that it was time to change and let all of the bullshit from my past go...and it has taken me this long to finally see all the hurt and anger and fear leaving me. LOL I knew once I decided to change that I would be tested. some tests I have failed...but I passed this one. standing up for myself, saying what was on my mind even in the face of adversity. God is so awesome! so yeah...I'm FABULOUS! ;-)

Comment: JAV, i do understand a lot more than u think. my thing is this. you present yourself to be a nice person, w/ a lot of baggage who deals w/ a lot of unnecesary bullshyt, and asks for advice for the same situation repeatedly. it's not that i don't care for you. i just think that at this age and stage of your life you should want and should have better for yourself than a lot of the stuff you say. the whole myspace situation should never have happened b/c you need to understand that you have to look out for you. a grown man can take care of himself, and that's what really got me upset w/ you. not @ you per se, but the fact that you let it bother you that much. until you get it in your mind that you deserve more than this, you will continue to get the same shyt. i don't like to see people run around aimlessly. you have talent, there's no reason to waste one minute on your time on anyone (including family) that's not worth it, and that includes speaking on it b/c if you're speaking on it then it really is an issue. my temper gets me into trouble more often then not, but i wasn't saying what i said to be mean, i'm saying it b/c you have to take a hard look at the picture you present to others. if you don't like it then you have to change it. it's been an ongoing process for me, but again i don't like seeing people waste time b/c that is one thing you don't get back.

Comment: Creneej: I understood. that desire for change had already come. Don't take it the wrong way but today was my test. God was testing me to see if I was REALLY ready to let go. and I passed. I thank you and everybody else for that because it was NOT an easy test. Sure I could have cursed everybody the hell out and told you all to kiss my %*$ but that was me in high school. LOL I let that person go years ago. However, I lost a lot of me when I got sick and that was when all of this drama started. I NEVER had this much drama. I realize now it was just God bringing me closer to him and showing me just how I looked to others. that's why I decided to change. after quite a few months of tears. the drama jus kept coming and coming until I saw no way to get out at all. but I got stable in my disorder and okay with not being able to have children. and I dust myself off and kept moving...but in the wrong way. I went into raising my son....I went back to school to get my masters...all to cover up the real issue...I was hurt and have wayyyyyyyyy too much pride to tell anyone or even let it go myself. it's been hard but I see the finish line :)

Comment: Ok, I got called away, but am back...um, what does IT taste like? It depends? Certain foods alter the taste, especially fruit. Strawberries are great. But, if swallowing is truly not your thing, then you can fake it...when it happens, let it run back out while you continue to swab. WAS THAT TOO GRAPHIC? Use your hand to work it in like lube. Trust and believe he'll just appreciate your action that he won't be too concerned about where it went.

Comment: Can I add something about life and change? Here's my thinking: You can't be strong practicing weakness. Everybody talks about change, reads about change, prays about change, but fails to follow through on change. But, to be better, or to be the person you want to be, starts with change. One day I just said I'm not doing this anymore. And i didn't. Best thing I could have done. If you want to be something than what you are, you stop doing what you're doing. Its a commitment, and it don't come easy, but it won't come at all if you don't make effort. A friend told me a long time ago: Penny, you run with too many people who want to keep you where they are. Cut them lose, b/c they are tying you down. I did. I was without friends for a minute, but I started making progess towards goals I had set for myself. You eat an elephant one bite at a time.

Comment: Lovely...I think it has to do with a person's skin type, how they take care of themselves, etc. With my two c-sec, I have a bikini cut that has a little crease. It goes from hip bone to hip bone...but has shrank (or hips got bigger) over the years (my baby is 20). Now a friend of mine had a c-sec, and her stomach looked terrible. She had a wrinkled tummy with saggy skin. When I was pregnant, my mom made me slather my belly with vaseline...and I work control top pantyhose. Now times are a little different, but I say moisturize, moisturize, moisturize...I have 7 sisters, and all of us who gave birth have smooth bellies...

Comment: Name: Penelope Comment: Ok, I got called away, but am back...um, what does IT taste like? It depends? Certain foods alter the taste, especially fruit. Strawberries are great. But, if swallowing is truly not your thing, then you can fake it...when it happens, let it run back out while you continue to swab. WAS THAT TOO GRAPHIC? Use your hand to work it in like lube. Trust and believe he'll just appreciate your action that he won't be too concerned about where it went..........I lost my lunch, breakfast, dinner from last night and Thanksgiving dinner as well. I think I may have dropped two pounds.

Comment: Aw 12, don't be that way! You still a 12 girl! I think it has something to do with skin type though. But, I am the queen of moisturizing, and when I was preggers, my belly itched so bad that I was prolly using a jar of vaeline a week. I think some folks I knew used Mother's Friend (I think that's what it was called) but all my sisters (I'm the baby) swore by plain ole petroleum jelly. My mother was always telling me to rub it all over. The backs of my arms even. I don't know if it work any better or worse, but as I said, i have 7 sisters, and we all have really smooth skin. Even our feet are smooth. I didnt think much of it, then a couple of people told me tht my skin is really soft. So, maybe moms was on to something.

Comment: WONDER IF THIS WOULD BE A GOOD TIME TO TRADE UP? MIAMI — Max Rameau delivers his sales pitch like a pro. "All tile floor!" he says during a recent showing. "And the living room, wow! It has great blinds."
But in nearly every other respect, he is unlike any real estate agent you've ever met. He is unshaven, drives a beat-up car and wears grungy cut-off sweat pants. He also breaks into the homes he shows. And his clients don't have a dime for a down payment.
Rameau is an activist who has been executing a bailout plan of his own around Miami's empty streets: He is helping homeless people illegally move into foreclosed homes.
"We're matching homeless people with people-less homes," he said with a grin.
Rameau and a group of like-minded advocates formed Take Back the Land, which also helps the new "tenants" with secondhand furniture, cleaning supplies and yard upkeep. So far, he has moved six families into foreclosed homes and has nine on a waiting list.

Comment: Uh-oh. Bama of the week week week Plaxico Burress is up a creek without a paddle. Mayor Bloomberg is out for blood. Per CNN (they're doing a story as I write this), Mayor Bloomberg of NYC is investigating not only Plaxico (what kind of name is Plaxico?) but also the other two players that were with him, as well as the hospital. Something about someone not wanting treatment (Plaxico?), a coverup, and the fact that in NY, an unlicensed gun requires an automatic 3 1/2 years in jail.

Comment: Speaking of being thankful and grateful. I went to the doctor today for my annual checkup. Since I'm self-employed I don't have health insurance because I can't afford it. I've had some issues in the past year, and praise God my fibroids still aren't growing. And my doctor gave me some information to call about getting a mammogram from one of the community mobile units sponsored by a hospital. If I went to the hospital the mammogram would be hundreds of dollars. So, I thank God for a good check-up and for not having any health problems that need to be addressed.

Don't knock it - I get a sack full of muscle relaxants EVERY time I take a cruise, and I've done that thing six times, thankyaverymuch. What I don't get is this.

In fact, don't go to places that require you to have your "bizness" with you! There are entirely too many nondescript membership only places in NYC that he could have gone to with his fellow players and entourage that would have catered to his every need and then some. Idiota!

Comment: I'm done commenting about Plaxico's situation. I said what I had to say and right now I guess I'll wait to see what unfolds from his situation. I hate to see that this has happened to him especially being a local product of the 757 (VA) but I'm a HUGE advocate for personal responsibility and whether it's Mike Vick, Allen Iverson or even my own brother when you're wrong, your wrong. Apologize, ask for forgiveness then stand up like a man and take that punishment. I'm old school when it comes to manning up.

Comment: *still in lurk mode* okay..i finished reading your posts. TO CREENJ AND PENELOPE>i agree with your posts. and to add to that the experiences we go through is all a part of growing. no matter how old we get in this life we continue to grow in ourselves and as we grow we experience all kinds of things in our lives. the main thing is that we LEARN from those experiences and never try to repeat the mistakes we made. sometimes we do repeat them and we tend to make mistakes again, but we must learn and regognize to know we must not do it again. no one is perfect on this earth. we all have shortcommings and downfalls, we do and say silly stupid things without thinking. but untill we think before we speak and act then we have made a change not to repeat. so i say ditto on your posts. it was on point. JAVONE>you are young still and you are still learning about you. the journey can be bumpy at times but just as long as you love yourself and never let insecurity and low self esteem engulf you, you will be the best that you can be. life is a joyus and crazy experience with a lot of ups and downs. the main thing is do we have the strength to handle it. and with the grace of God, we can. cause when all is said and done, when it gets too dayum hard you go to him and have a good talk out. beleive me, i had many convos with him. so it's all good.

Comment: Black Testicles
A male patient was lying in bed in the hospital, wearing an oxygen mask over his mouth and nose, still heavily sedated from a difficult four-hour surgical procedure.
A young student nurse appeared to give him a partial sponge bath. 'Nurse,' he mumbled from behind the mask, 'Are my testicles black?'
Embarrassed, the young nurse replied, 'I don't know, Sir. I'm only here to wash your upper body and feet.'
He struggled to ask again, 'Nurse, are my testicles black?'
Concerned that he may elevate his vitals from worry about his testicles, she overcame her embarrassment and sheepishly pulled back the covers.
She raised his gown, held his penis in one hand and his testicles in the other, lifting and moving them around.
Then, she took a close look and said, 'There's nothing wrong with them, Sir!!'
The man pulled off his oxygen mask, smiled at her and said very slowly, 'Thank you very much. That was wonderful, but listen very, very closely...

Comment: Be, are there any worthy pervs in the house, or are they all scrubs? If there are worthy pervs, you could always go get a fresh wax job - say in the shape of an arrow pointing downward - and then pull a Sharon Stone move from "Fatal Attraction." Never pull that move on a scrub, though. That can only be pulled on one who is worthy. Just a thought.

Comment: JUICE>what? you know, you are right! there is a silent version of the Wizard of Oz. i remember they were talking about it when they were doing a documentary on the movie. did you know Buddy Ebsen was supposed to play the tin man? when they spraypainted the silver body paint on him he almost died from suffocation. the paint clogged up his pores.

Comment: The quality of swallowing is 100% dependent on the diet of the provider. If the provider sustains themselves on junk food and not enough water, the "gift" will be tart and not tasty. However, if the provider partakes in a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, LOTS of water (at LEAST 10 glasses per day) and quality lean meats, the gift can be quite tasty. Again, this is 100% dependent on the provider. The receiver will never know this until said package is delivered. One bad experience can turn the receiver off for life, hence, the need for chipmunk cheeks until she can reach a napkin, sink or toilet bowl.

Comment: I dropped my wallet in a gas station this summer while traveling. I didn't realize it until I arrived at my destination three hours later. Praise God the store manager found it in the back of the store (I dropped it at the counter when I paid for my stuff) and locked it up in the safe. Someone had taken my money but none of my cards or license. I didn't care about the money, I was concerned about how I would get back on my flight without a drivers license. I kept checking my bank and credit card accounts online to make sure no one was using them. The number listed for the gas station was incorrect so I called the Cracker Barrel restaurant across the street where I had eaten. One of the managers drove over there and found out the store had the wallet. I gave him a thank you card with a check in it and told him if he ever needs anything to not hesitate to call me. There are still some decent, kind and compas-sionate people in the world.

Comment: See, Rah understands! Be/Yelley, I had absolutely no problem sharing with the ex-boyfriend that while I share the same love for the fast food runs that we were going to have to eat more healthy. Case in point? Anyone see Chris Rock's latest comedy special, "Kill The Messenger?" What did he say at the end about "happy committed relationships?" What did the gal do that made him stop in the middle of the comment and holla, roll his eyes and twitch like he was about to have a full body seizure? Trust, when ex-boyfriend's diet changed, the full body seizures were on like Donkey Kong. Oh, how I seriously wonder sometimes if I should move back to Toronto... smile.....

Because we do choose our actions. My aunt apologized to her kids for getting back together with her husband/their father.

Comment: See Ame that's what I'm talking about. Folks act like the other person in a relationship is to blame. Perhaps it they had used better judgment their circumstance would be different. I'm not saying its always one person over another's fault. What I am saying is that folks can't go around blaming everybody else for what they-themselves did or did not do. People do that because then they believe it releases them of their responsibility in a certain situation. I say grow a pair or put your bigt girl panties on and do what you need to do for you.

Someone I could at least see myself spending 90 minutes with to have dinner, let alone taking the time to have the arrow wax and then recreating the Sharon Stone interrogation - cross and recross my legs scene for in a meeting. Naw, just take that slice of advice and sit it on the side of your glass. It will come in handy one day. I'll just wait right here for you to come back and share **wink**

Comment: Lovely - The post-pregnant stomach depends on the person. One friend has 11-year-old twins and she still has a pooch with the dark stretch marks. She's a slender girl, and they were big babies. However, I think exercising before and after pregnancy can help. Another friend rubbed olive oil on her stomach during both pregnancies to avoid stretch marks.

Comment: Pen, yeah....as far as Keith, I suppose if that's your life, that's your life. And, remember when JC was sick, for the undisputed King of Gospel to be dying of HIV/AIDS would have been too much of a bombshell for the Gospel Music world to handle. Still would if an official press release happened. So, the underground rumor mill just rolls on years later. I remember when he died - it was on my birthday. So sad.

Comment: Yep MissCharli...it was sad, but many folks didn't know he was sick, let alone know that he was HIV + and had AIDs. Being from the Church of God In Christ, sex back then was more taboo, especially gay sex. Rev Cleveland was considered to be one of the greatest gospel artist of all time, and he did take gospel music (as we know it today) to a-whole-nother level. Yet, all that he did has been squashed because of how he died. You don't really hear to much about his legacy at all. It is more like a quiet acknowlegment, but certainly not one that someone will give tribute too.

Comment: Hard to find a lot of that old music. The James Cleveland recording stable recorded on Savoy Records, which was bought by Malaco Records. Malaco for some reason will not re-release a lot of that stuff. Maybe it's because much of it would have to be digitally re-mastered and placed onto CDs (remember it was all on LP and ca-ssette) Don't know why - they could make TONS of money. But, I suppose they believe that this new generation only wants to hear the new folks such as J. Moss, Kiki Sheard, Tonex, etc.. Not so! If we don't know where the heritage of the music is, we'll never know.
