Jamaican Hottie Hotties

The other day while going home from work I encountered an interesting young lady. I had just walked out to catch a taxi. While I was walking towards the bus stop, i noticed her. She was a slim, short, brown girl. I imagine most men would think her attractive, not wow, but, she was dressed neatly and nicely and she looked pleasant. I noticed her particularly because i took interest in the handbag she had strewn over her shoulder. That's how i am, i love accessories, anyway, since i liked her handbag i decided to take in some more of her outfit.

The handbag that started the next series of events was a beautiful brown guess handbag. This was part of an outfit that included, mini Guess Jeans skirt, brand named, blouse, shoes, and belt to boot. Her hair was well maintained and she had her nails both feet and hands done and of course she wore the latest fashion. I thought to myself cool, she doing well for herself. Anyway, we both caught the same taxi, i got in first and got as comfortable and she came in behind me. She sat down and smiled, then proceeded to touch the taxi man. What happened next was what sparked this post, the words that came out of her mouth after words literally shocked me. This expertly dressed young lady touched the taxi man and say "driver a 60 dollar me have enuh, me nuh have no more".

What on earth!!! I couldn't help it, i had that shocked aghast look on my face i could literally feel my mouth wide open looking on her. After i got over the shock i nearly died laughing. I had to call a friend on my cell phone to distract myself because i really never want her to realize i was laughing at her, cause I'm not a fighter. Its ridiculous, the clothes she had on was worth a lot more than the $70 taxi fare. I was like, 'you're kidding me right' i couldn't believe it. But then its so typical. Have you ever been to Passa Passa or any of those street dances? Those girls that live in the 'ghetto' and bawl that "government nah do nutten fi dem" are dressed from head to two in the latest fashions and in the most expensive outfits and they are the same ones who claim they can't afford the school fees and pay the light and water bills. Their priority instead, is to make sure that they are perceived as the "hot girl" who can "hold her man" and can "walk out inna the video light". It's such a tragic state of affairs. This desire to be the Hottie Hottie Jamaican girl wins out over logic and sense. I blame some of that on the music, I'm listening to the radio right now and I've heard, in the past 10 minutes numerous songs about who is hot and hotter than who and have more than who and better than who...and more of the same. It's really sad though. I'm glad i never grew up in that kind of situation with that kind of mentality. Thank you mom.

Things We Say That We Don't Really Mean

People tend to just say things off the top of their heads without thinking about it. I've been victim to this truth so many times myself, its just things that we are so accustomed to saying, its what we've been taught to say, its what comes naturally, its part of society's norms, but if you think about half these things, do we really mean what we say?

Take for example the following scenarios:

1. Someone accidentally opens the door the the toilet that you are in the middle of using, (most likely if you fall prey to a weak bladder and are forced to use public conveniences) and says to you "oh, i'm sorry"
Most people's natural reaction is to say " Oh, thats OK" But come on, do you really mean that? Ok, if its fine let me do it again! We know you don't really mean its ok but we say it anyway.

2. You lend someone a good deal of money, probably a few thousand dollars and they start to verbally show their gratitude.
What is the most likely thing to come out of our mouth? "Oh, its nothing, forget about it"
Ha! yeah right, forget about the fact that i lent you a couple thousand dollars that i worked so hard for, i want my money back! But hey, thats not what comes out, its always the ephemistic version of what you really want to say, one day someone is gonna take that crap seriously.

3. Why do we constnatly go through the ritual of " Hey, how are you?"
Truth is, you dont really want to know, you have no intentions of stopping to discuss how the person really is, what you do instead expect to hear is the requsit "i'm doing ok, and you? and then of course you repeat the "i'm fine" part and mosey on your way.

Its so ingrained in us, we don't even realize. We hardly ever say what we mean, what kind of society functions that way. Most of what we do on a daily basis is for appearances, to follow the status quo and not mess with the balance. Things run more smoothly that way. Try doing it a little different one day and see what happens. Especially the last one. Its tragically funny, because if somone in passing says "hey, how are you?" and you go off on a long explanation of how depressed over the death of your pet pup "twizzle" they'll be spun for a loop and would probably have no idea how to deal with the scenario. Trust me, i've tried it.

What being bored at work does

An Ode to Sleep
by Me.








Oh sleep
how doth triest to conquer me
But alas!
Above thee i shalt rise
Thou hath maketh me week
But alas!
I doth not concede

In my weakest state
shalt mine eyyes lift to blogger
In my weakest state
Shalt my fingers type
In mmy weakest state
doth does maketh me shun mine true work
But over all mine body
Thou shalt not prevail

I shalt dispel thine annointing
I shalt maketh a post
I shalt overcome thee!
Alas, thine only reprieve and victory
shalt beeth
I shalt maketh a post that doth maketh no sense.
Fin!

Miss Teen USA, Miss South Carolina- Related to President Bush?

I wish people would not tell me about these things...I really honestly wish they wouldnt, but they do and, sigh, its just sad. Here is Miss South Carolina in the Miss Teen USA attemptin to answer the judges question. First...Watch


Here is President Bush trying to answer a question from the media at a press conference


Seems like they are in fact blood relatives right, as close as father and daughter.

Neway my first reaction to the Teen Miss Carolina was "WHAT THE ..." Seriosuly, my question is, how did she manage to win the Miss Teen Carolina Pagent...they clearly did not have a question and answer segment. Nehoo after being completely stumped i figured i try and decipher/translate what she was trying to say:

First reference to Osama- she realized she didnt have a clue but she had swatted an aswer relating to Iraq, since they didnt ask her a question relating to Iraq she thought she'd just slip in the Osama bit to make sure people knew she knew about the war in Iraq...

"people out there dont have maps and i believe our education such as in South Africa and Iraq and every where such as"- translation: people don't have maps so they wouldnt know where to find the USA on it and they dont have Maps because its the the South Africans and the Iraqis who steal the maps.

"I believe our education over here in the US should help the US, should help South Africa and should help directly the Asian Countries..."- translation- its a good thing we attacked Iraq so we can get back our maps and start using the education system to teach the US citizens how to read the maps. It wasn't South Africa's fault so maybe we can use our education system to also better their country.

Again i say "WHAT THE..." Oh by the way, does anybody realize how much she looks like Jessica Simpson? Chicken of the Sea... Maybe they are related too....hmmm!

what you see is Not what you get

Usually, we are pretty much able to trust our eyes, but , technology is making it increasingly impossible to trust anything...anything! What you see is definitely not what you get.
Woman, for example to lengths in an effort to "catch a man", they put on so much, that at the end of the day, if they do catch a man, when they remove everything the poor guy would not even recognize the person standing in front of him. Technology has made it possible for us women to temporarily alter our appearances.
Man, we have amassed such a large inventory of things (sorry to divulge the secrets ladies but..):

padded bras/ push up bras
padded underwear
make up
eye lashes
weaves, braids and extensions
silicone
liposuction...I could go on forever...

Some things we have we definitely take off at the end of the day and whoa, whole different woman....other things we can just do, reduce this, fix this, add this....its amazing....

and then there is the retouching of pictures. LOL...the Internet is one amazing place to get fooled.



Check out this beautiful pic to ur left for example. Follow the green arrows, amazing right!





And its not just professionals who can do this stuff, believe me, any photo editing software can manipulate a picture in a couple of minutes to produce anything the user wants.. check this out




Well All i know is, I'm rather weary of pictures and people, who knows what might fall out/ or out of a pretty looking young man/ woman who you are ogling down the road.
