While driving to work today, this song came on. It’s called “Wake up everybody” by Harold Melvin and the Blue notes”. Believe it or not, this is an oldie, but still a goodie. Now more then ever, these lyrics make so much sense. We all need to wake up a bit. All of us.
Till next time….
Wake up everybody no more sleepin in bed
No more backward thinkin time for thinkin ahead
The world has changed so very much
From what it used to be so
there is so much hatred war an' poverty
Wake up all the teachers time to teach a new way
Maybe then they'll listen to whatcha have to say
Cause they're the ones who's coming up and the world is in their hands
when you teach the children teach em the very best you can.
Chorus
The world won't get no better if we just let it be
The world won't get no better we gotta change it yeah, just you and me.
Wake up all the doctors make the ol' people well
They're the ones who suffer an' who catch all the hell
But they don't have so very long before the Judgement Day
So won'tcha make them happy before they pass away.
Wake up all the builders time to build a new land
I know we can do it if we all lend a hand

Get paid to blog
All righty folks. About a month ago, I got my first check as a writer. By that I mean that I got paid to write for the first time in my life. How you ask? Easy, I signed up with this company called “Gajillion.com”. (click on the link)
What they are is a company that realizes the power of bloggers. They know we hold weight with our words. Hence, they use us to get the word out there for their products. This simply means you are given a product to try and then you write a review on it. Moreover, here is the process for which they go by; they set you up with an “Encounter link” that you place in your blog for your readers to click. Now each click generates .15 cents for you. Not bad, considering that “Google” does something similar called “Ad Sense” in which they place an ad in your blog and you generate .10 cents per click.
With this company, you get a whole nickel more than with “Google”. You can also reject any job that is tossed your way. Translations, no obligation makes this a kool gig. I mean for just trying something out, and writing a review on it, you can generate a few extra bucks a week. Moreover, this company pays. I am living proof of that. I photo copied my check and invoice for proof of my first payment as a writer.
“Bloggers” hit this site of “Gajillion.com”(click on the link) for more info on it and be sure to tell them that I sent you.

My last free thought
My last free thought
Our world, as we know it
Has changed
With everything around us
Rearranged
As Nostradamus scripted
“Man made mountains shall plunge into the sea”
And now were all afflicted.
Some of us still in shock
Mouths open
As if they’re sucking on a cock
War is upon us
As written in some crazy scriptures
Now all we can do,
Is to look back,
At our old pictures
Or recall from memory
Sit down and tell the horrendous story
If the writings on the wall hold true
For a long time we all will be feeling blue
“Twenty and seven years”
Is what was written
All this chaos for what I say
Lets just be kids
Go outside and play
Go quick before the sun goes out
Don’t listen to the wrong people
Scream and shout
Our world has changed
With everything around us
About to be rearranged
Good luck to us all
Hoped you enjoyed your last day of freedom.

Missed being robbed by mere minutes
Today started off well, then got crazy for a bit.
Here we go. I go do laundry in the morning at my local Laundromat. Now I have a unique way of doing my laundry, being that I hate to sit and wait I just drop it into the machine and leave.
You see I hate to sit and wait. So doing laundry only takes me an hour or so. I put it in the was for 22 minutes exactly, I leave go get a coffee come back and switch them to the dryer for 40 minutes, then drive home and chill for the time.
Well today I did just that, but when I put my clothes in the dryer and left, two minutes later the place was held up at gunpoint.
I came back to get my clothes 40 minutes later to find it swamped with cops. I get informed of what transpired then questioned as to who I am and what I am doing here. After a lil show and tell with the cops I head home buggin a bit.
I missed being robbed my mere minutes. Wow is today my lucky day or what?

Allergy advice
Ok here we go, for a quick laugh check this out. My girl was having allergy problems the other day, so I offered advice.
One being to clear up your sinuses just do a headstand over the toilet, dip your head in and flush. That should clean you out. All the water circling around should get all the mucus out. And to keep it all away, just get some chicken urine. That really works. Their urine keeps all allergies at bay.
She sent me to hell quickly. But I ask you all, did I offer good advice?

A short simple recap
Hello all. Been awhile since I sat down and wrote to my fans. How are you all doing? Hope you all are doing well. A lot has been going on since we last chatted. Don’t really know where to begin or what to write about. But I will tell you all this, I got me a new job. Yes! Finally I am employed once again. Been with them now for 2 months. I was unemployed for three, now that sucked a lil bit.
Grant it I was able to rest up, but let me tell you, it gets boring real fast. And me, I don’t sleep in, so that part I didn’t even register. I was up everyday bright and early sending out resumes, or desktop support to my clients. Did not rest at all. I actually sleep more now with a job, then when I didn’t have one. Odd huh?
Well I wasn’t going to get political but I must ask, what is up with “John Mccain” picking that lady as his running mate? Is he that desperate for the minority votes that he added her to counter “Mr. Obama”? She is a bit attractive I might add. And why remake “90210”? What’s next, “Melrose Place”? Are we that starved for new ideas?
Well not much has been going on in my life. I am dating this girl. That’s new. We’re taking it slow, as in getting to know each other, known her for a bit now, but not in an intimate relationship fashion. Taking it one day at a time, see where that leads me.
Got paid to write, which most of you know, and I thanked all of you for that. But other then that I have been bored as hell. Seems as if my life for some odd reason is at a stall at the moment. Maybe I need a lady to jumpstart my life, or some sort of divine force to point in me In the right direction, or I should just grow the fuck up and realize that I am living and this is life, we make the best of it. Ah well.
One thing that I am really looking forward to is “Football” season. Thank God for winter and its glorious sport. Oh and fall, I love fall. Well before I continue babbling I will let you all get back to your lives. Thank you for your time.

Perpetual Stalemate
Perpetual stalemate
That is what I am in
Stuck in a rut
Not a normal one
But a mental one
Feel as if I am lost in a thought
However, I have no thoughts
Therefore, I guess I am just lost
Lost in a perpetual stalemate
No movement forward
No movement backwards
Just the same going on and on and on
Boring huh?

Theme song for my nuts
Hello all, for a quick laugh keep reading. I was on “Yahoo” instant messenger with my friend “Ann” the other day. She was telling me how she wants to bring her boyfriend to NY and do the tourist thing. I told her bring him up to NY and show him all the sights, but he needs to come to NY number one tourist attraction. My nuts!
That is when she got mad, and told me I was gross.
I say to her, “Ann relax, my nuts are a huge tourist attraction. People come from all over to see them. They take pictures of them, they sniff em, they even bring their own Q-tip swabs to swab em and go home with some “Ball sweat”
This was her reply,
“Ewwwwwwwwwwwww, you are so freakin gross James, I am going to sign off now, thank you for making me sick”
“No ann. relax, seriously it’s a huge tourist attraction, I even have my own theme song”
She quickly signed off, so what did “James” do. I called her, just to sing my song. Its based on the “Juicy Fruit” theme song, being that the song seems dirty as is, I changed it up and it seemed to fit.
Here it is folks, enjoy.
Take a sniff
Pull it out
The taste is gonna move ya
Once you pop it in your mouth
James nuts
Are gonna move ya
Taste like salt
And goes right through ya
James nuts
The taste the taste the taste

Farewell to the mole
Last night, my heart dropped. I mean dropped hard. I felt like crying. Let me tell you all why.
As most of you know my boy, "Paul" was a contestant on "The Mole" an A.B.C. reality based game show. I do not watch those shows, but my man was on it and I had to show my support.
Well I was caught up in it, I found myself a fan of the show, well more of a fan of his. You see, he made the show interesting. He gave it that special something that those types of shows lack. I call it "Realism". He was himself the whole time, a pure and utter dick. I loved it, he gave them all a little taste of our world. In addition, it came through loud and clear on the television screen. I know I am not the only one to feel this way about it.
Ok, I know I am rambling, sorry, on with last night. So I am at my computer playing a game, not really paying attention to the show at the moment because I honestly thought that "Paul" was going to win, or that he was the mole, so I sorta zoned out towards the end of the show, the part when they take the exam and eliminate somebody. I thought it was a given that he would survive to see another day.
Nope! Not this time, all I hear is,
"Paul, you have been eliminated"
Oh no, my heart dropped. I felt like crying, my pal is not the mole, nor is he the winning contestant. Damn, life is not fair. I called him immediately to see how he is doing and to see if what I just watched was correct.
Yep, he verified it for me, I told him I feel like crying, and he said he did also, but to make sure I watch the conclusion of the show to see how close he was to winning.
Huh?
Keep watching it?
Are you crazy?
I cannot stand these types of show, and now with you off, I truly have no reason to watch. However, I will, just to see who wins and who the mole is, and to find out what he was talking about. However, before I leave I will say this, Paul, after all this, I must admit, you may not be the man, but you definitely are one of the men. Thanx for the laughs, and you worded it best on your way out, you found out how important your family is, and you do have a beautiful family. "Tori and Alexa" are just gorgeous.
Therefore, I will wish you and your family all the luck. (Even if you did dump me for her, which is in the past though) You are a winner in our hearts buddy.

A star is born
Tonight if you watched "The Mole", you witness the birth of a superstar. Paul Grassi is that next star. When they showed his family on the now infamous "Train scene" that was just the beginning of his birth to stardom. When his cute lil girl did her finger flip for the door to open and the door opened, "America's" heart swelled. Then you see the look on his face when the door opened.
Whoa! Right there, a star was born.
Not only is he a good looking young man, but his wife is stunningly beautiful and that little girl of his was just beyond words.
Right now at this moment, his stock is at an all time high. Paul, cheers to you. Moreover, double cheers to you and that beautiful family of yours. Good luck to you on the show, and may luck follow you after.
Just remember to sprinkle some "Gees" on me.

Who is the sick one. him or her?
Ok, here we go once again with more questions from “Jimmy Vee”. You know you love em, don’t lie.
Well today’s question is simple. A man is sitting at a red light in his car, waiting for the light to turn, but while he is waiting, he decides to pick his nose. Now he is picking it the entire time, with no remorse mind you, just picking. Ok, now my friend is sitting at the same light across from him grossed out. However, she continues to look. She then sends me a text message detailing this, calling the man gross.
Now you all know me, I respond to her text by calling her gross for watching. She replies with “it’s like watching a car crash”. In other words, she could not turn away. Therefore, I say to her, you are a sicko. He is assuming that he is not being watched and he is in the privacy of his car, so he decides to pick his nose. No, harm no foul, but you looked, noticed he was picking, and then you continued to look. So who is the sick one then?
Him for picking or her for watching?

"Johanna" live at the "Bayou"
It was Friday night June 27. My friend “Melissa” and I head out to the “Bayou” in “Mount Vernon” to go watch a show. Were going to go watch “Johanna” and her band perform there. I had told her prior that she was in for a treat. However, boy was I wrong; we were both in for a treat.
This young lady hit the stage with a vengeance. She rocks! Her voice is beautiful. She is extremely personable, has an amazing stage presence, and her band does not hit a bad note. This was by far one of the best live acts I have seen in a long time.
From the first to the last song, you are glued to your seat. You just want her to keep on singing. For the moments that she is performing, everything in your life fades away. Not many artist performance can keep you enthralled for their whole set, but she can.
She even did an “Alicia Keys” cover of her song “No one”. In addition, I must tell you, her version sounds as if it is her own song. She sang the hell out of that song. This lady sang the hell out of every song. In addition, her band, oh my, they are incredible musicians, and this is coming from a musician, so I know when a band misses a note or messes up. These guys simply rocked.
I had to buy her album at the end of her second set. Yes, folks I sat there for two sets. My date was so impressed with them that all we spoke about the rest of the night was “Johanna”. Guys, word of advice, a “Johanna” show, is the perfect place for a date.
I will be putting out a review on her album shortly, but in the mean time, just peep out her page and sample some songs. You can even go to www. iTunes. com and do a search under her name or search for the album titled” Why would I sing”. And if you hate itunes like I do, you can get it at http://cdbaby. com/cd/johannamusic . You will not be disappointed. Trust me, have I ever lead you wrong?
Right now, all I can say is that she encapsulates love beautifully. Her CD has not left my player since Friday night. Moreover, it will not leave for another month or so.

What will be will be
What will be will be
It is no good to think long and hard about what might happen in life.
Just get on with it
That is what they say.
And I do
Day by day
I do my best and see what comes.
I suppose that is sensible.
It could always be worse, that is what I tell myself.
Sometimes I lie to myself just to get through the day.
Does that make me a liar?
Everybody lies.
Sometimes it is a nice lie.
Everybody lies.
Doesn’t make them bad
And it doesn’t make them sad
The truth shall set you free
That is how it goes right?
However, the truth don’t come so easily
But at times
What will be, will be.
Till next time...

Not Happening
“The Happening” did not happen at all. This was a horrible, I mean horrible movie. This movie tells you the ending in the first ten minutes. This movie was so hyped, that I knew it would either be really good, or just plain awful. And I was correct, it was just plain awful.
This movie makes me wonder if anybody reads scripts anymore. This movie had a good cast, which leaves me to believe that they did not read the script. Because had they read the script before agreeing to do it, I bet, they would not have acted in this crap.
M. Knight Shyamalan has lost me as a fan. I have tried to give this man a chance, but with this movie, he has lost me. I will never pay for any of his movies again. This man has not made a decent movie since “The Sixth Sense”. However, Hollywood refusing to infuse new blood keeps giving this man money to make garbage films. Films with so much potential as seen in the trailers but is nothing more then a waste of time
“Mark Wahlberg” whom I consider to be a decent actor, really flopped on this one. He played such a horrible leading man. From the get go I wanted to walk out, after hearing his little whishy washy voice. It was as if his character was written to annoy the audience. And boy, did it annoy me.
“Zooey Deschanel” played her usual spaced out self, nothing to brag about or to put on her resume. This movie had nothing, and I mean nothing special. It was just a total let down from beginning to end. And Hollywood wonders why “Bootleg Movies” sell. It is simple. Make a movie worth paying $12.00 for, and watch people shell out money for it.
On a scale of 1-10, I give this movie a two. People save your money and do not waste your time, remember, you wont get your two hours of lost life back, so do not waste it on this movie.
Till next time.

“Mark Wahlberg” whom I consider to be a decent actor, really flopped on this one. He played such a horrible leading man. From the get go I wanted to walk out, after hearing his little whishy washy voice. It was as if his character was written to annoy the audience. And boy, did it annoy me.
“Zooey Deschanel” played her usual spaced out self, nothing to brag about or to put on her resume. This movie had nothing, and I mean nothing special. It was just a total let down from beginning to end. And Hollywood wonders why “Bootleg Movies” sell. It is simple. Make a movie worth paying $12.00 for, and watch people shell out money for it.
On a scale of 1-10, I give this movie a two. People save your money and do not waste your time, remember, you wont get your two hours of lost life back, so do not waste it on this movie.
Till next time.

My Freind Jim Was Crazy
Hello all, I have been working on a book that is about me, but written from a friend's point of view and has his opinions about me. Well here is the opening to it I hope you all enjoy it and I would like to know what you all think about it.
Thanx.
Till next time....
(Excerpt from "My Friend Jim Was Crazy)
Never in my wildest dreams did I think that I would become "Jaded"? Jaded towards society. Moreover, lo and behold, my friend "Jim" got me there. I knew this man since childhood. In addition, even back then he did not fit in anywhere. Therefore, it was understandable that this person was "Jaded".
My friend Jim is crazy.
Thanx.
Till next time....

My friend Jim is crazy.
Not crazy in the Looney sense, hmmmmmmm, well maybe at times, but most of the time he was a pure genius. Some of the things that would come out of his mouth would astound others and me. He had this knack for saying what was on people's mind, and for being brave enough to say it.
I have never met anyone in my life, so secure in his manhood that he would grab a man's ass, simply as a joke, to get a reaction out of them, without thinking anything of it. Most people thought he was gay, or that he was hiding in the closet or something, but the fact that he could do those types of things and not get bothered showed, just how secure he was in his manhood. However, if you touched him in the ways that he would touch any of his friends he would flip out. Odd huh?
I have never run into anyone as "Crazy" as Jim was. Actually, I am going to stop calling him "Crazy", Jim prefers the term "Free Spirited". I like that one also; it seems to fit his personality more. Jim does come across as a free spirited individual. His points of view are so out there, I mean he sees things without blinders so to speak.
One example come to mind was how he described women to me many years ago, he said, "All women are whore and they can't be trusted, right down to grandma. She did her thing back in her day"
That sent me into a straight up, "What?"
Then he continued, but we will get to that part later on. My main reason for writing about him is some of the stuff that comes out of his mouth just baffles the mind. This person is no idiot this man reads a lot. Not textbooks or stuff pertinent to his life, like self-help books, or books on any job he is involved in, but books on life, and religion. This person is a professor of philosophy and does not see it. He is so open to other points of views, and sees both sides to every coin so to speak.

love scene
All righty, here we go once more with insane but meaningful questions from “James”.
Let us say you are an actor. Your next movie is gonna be big, your getting paid well, around 2 million I would say. Now your sibling, (a.k.a. brother or sister, depending on what you have) is also on the same movie. Now that is awesome, both of you making millions and about to be on the big screen.
Now here is the decisive factor. You have to be in a love scene with your sibling. It is not a porn scene; it is a love scene, similar to the one in “Monsters Ball”.
Pretty much, what I am asking is, can you do a love scene with your brother or sister?

Deficate for cash?
Ok here we go again. I asked Dave if I give him $200 bucks a week, could I watch him shit once a day, all in the name of science.
Ok, after you stop laughing, here is his reply
"Hell no, I'll send you a video feed of me shitting for $100"
A video feed I said. "Come on, that's lame, the experiment consist of me sitting in the room and watching you, taking down notes that explain what your doing and what I am seeing." He once again gladly sent me to hell. His thought is that I am some freak, I told him "Dave it's all in the name of science, this is a way to help people get over stage fright, and to find out the differences between men and women in the toilet doing the same thing.
His reply was "James that sounds more like a scientific experiment on seeing how crazy "James" is and also its an invasion of privacy, fuck science." He continued, "You really are a sick fuck. You need help James. To watch someone shit. Why?
After I stopped laughing, I asked him,
"Dave you really wouldn't let me watch you shit for $200 a week? Seriously, no video, so there is not any danger of it appearing on "youtube" or anything like that, just me taking down some notes. Medical notes at that."
"James no is my answer"
At that moment, my roommate happened to walk in and ask, "What the fuck are you guys talking about in here?"
I explain to him what we were discussing, he starts to laugh, and as he is laughing I ask him the same question.
"Jay, would you let me watch you shit once a day for $200 a week?"
He replied nonchalantly,
"Sure why not? That's a sweet deal"
Now that is my boy.
Now comes all the questions, and comments from them.
1)How many shits do you get to watch? My reply was "just one shit a day for seven days, basically a week's work. Seven shits I would say."
2)Can I choose which one to allow you to watch? "Sure we would set it up in advance of course"
3)The morning shits are long, you had better pack a lunch for the morning ones, and mine are long. "Ok, lunch for a morning crap? You're in there that long?"
Therefore, I ask you now, my readers, would you let me watch you shit once a day for a whole week for 200 big ones? Once you stop laughing let me know what your answer is. Thanx
Till next time….

T-Mobile equals bad business.
T-Mobile is not Kool. Not Kool at all. I have been a loyal customer since 2001. I make every payment, some late, but I do not miss any. Now this month I paid them. I paid them on the eighth. Now I went over last month on my minutes so my bill was a bit outrageous. So I pay my monthly bill and say to myself, “Self, you’ll pay the whole thing off on either the next bill, or the week before its due. According to them, my bill is not due until June 6.
Well, lo and behold, they start texting, a week after I made my monthly payment, telling me that I need to pay immediately. So I thinking to myself, “Self, these guys are nuts”. I go to the website to check when my next payment is due, and bam there it is, June 6.
So I go and pay my “Con Ed” and my “Verizon” bill thinking that life will be good. I go on a few job interviews, put gas in my car, you know, do my thing. I stay on the grind, getting a new job is my main priority. So my mind had been preoccupied with tons of things running through it I sign in to my unemployment lat on Sunday, around 10ish.
I am thinking that my money will come in on time, because I signed in on Sunday and all will be well. But no! Not in “James” world. Things gotta go wrong.
My unemployment check is supposed to be in my account on Wednesday morning, but being that I signed in late it gets pushed back a day. No worries I say, I got some cash on me, everything is paid off and I should be good. I go to make a phone call and bam! There is this unfamiliar sound.
“Do dee Do, your call cannot be completed at this time because your service has been temporarily disconnected, and you will be transferred to our automated system to make a payment”
Huh? Is all I can say. They cut me! Those bastards cut my phone service. I check when my next payment was due and it reads once again, June 6. What the hell are these guys doing? I made a payment this month, I am not running anywhere, nor am I hiding. They cut me before my next payment was due. I tried calling them, but my phone wont make any outgoing calls. Even the 611 feature does not work. They really cut me. These bastards, that overcharges at every given chance, give me shitty reception, with shitty service, and I still pay, cut me. I am appalled.
Wait until I get them on the line. I will rip into them, and force them to severe my contract. This is not the way to treat your loyal customers. At least wait until I pay or don’t pay my upcoming bill.
Damn you T-Mobile!
Till next time.

Grilled Chicken Wrap.
“Wendy’s Grilled Chicken Wrap”
Today I will talk about this, now the reason I am even discussing it is that it let me down. Here I am at home watching TV on my couch, and every other commercial is a “Wendy’s” commercial, showing off their new “Chicken wraps”. Now I am hungry and it is looking good. Time goes by and my hunger subsides.
Bam! The damn commercial is back on.
“Ok, this wrap looks kinda big in that ladies hand. Hmmmmmmm, I think I am feeling hungry again.”
Well I sit there for a minute or two thinking it over. Should I go to “Wendy’s” is all that is running through my head. Nah, I don’t feel like wasting the money nor the gas, but damn, I am hungry and would you look at the TV, there is the answer, get a new “Grilled Chicken Wrap to go”.
There it is, my decision is made, that wrap looks like it’s a nice good size, I get me some fries, or nuggets with it and I’m good.
Off to “Wendy’s” I go.
I tell you, I get to the place and the “wraps” look good on the signs. I place my order, get my food and I run to my car. Man, I am hungry, cant wait to get home and chow down, I stick my hand in the bag to get me some fries and I pull out the wrap. Would you believe that this has to be one of the smallest “wraps” I have ever had. I nearly stopped in my tracks when I got a look at this. Oh man, I am fuming now, this commercial mislead me, big time. This lil ass snack is not going to do anything for me. Damn! I knew I should have checked the bag before I left.
Well to end this rant, or sort of rant, I will tell you all, do not! I repeat, Do not, get your self a “Wendy’s Grilled Chicken Wrap” if you are hungry. The “Wrap” is strictly a snack.
