The Obama bashing is LAUGHABLE!

via facebook.com

I was scouring Facebook AGAIN, and ran across the image in this post! I immediately LMAO! I do like Obama, but you got to admit, this makes you want to laugh! But it's sad to think people are so stuck on "what he's doing wrong" but its stuff that is just coming down the pipes from the Bush Administration! Or things he has yet to change that have been going since Bush SENIOR! SMH! Its so laughable!

He isn't perfect & he isn't a miracle worker; so people need to just give the man a chance! DANG, its only been like A YEAR! Best believe the same people bashing President Obama were the same ones giving President Bush ALL KINDS OF CHANCES to KILL their sons and daughters, drive up gas and oil prices and KILL our economy! But then turn around and BLAME Obama when he only JUST got here! We were in a recession BEFORE Obama! We gave concessions, bailouts, etc BEFORE Obama! The Census was being done before Obama's PARENTS were even THOUGHT OF! Come on people GROW UP! Turn off Fox News and get an opinion of your own! SMH!

And one other thing... for all the people who are so stuck on Obama, POSSIBLY being a mason, or apart of a secret society! You need to GROW UP TOO! Remember, Bush Sr AND Bush Jr are ADMITTEDLY part of the Skull & Bones secret society! Oh, but I guess that's OK! SMDH!

"Take My Son" (an inspirational story, with a surprise ending)

* Please note, I was sent the following story via email from a good friend of mine. I hope you enjoy!

Take my Son

A wealthy man and his son loved to collect rare works of art. They had everything in their collection, from Picasso to Raphael. They would often sit together and admire the great works of art.. 

When the Vietnam conflict broke out, the son went to war. He was very courageous and died in battle while rescuing another soldier. The father was notified and grieved deeply for his only son 

About a month later, just before Christmas, there was a knock at the door. A young man stood at the door with a large package in his hands. 

He said, 'Sir, you don't know me, but I am the soldier for whom your son gave his life. He saved many lives that day, and he was carrying me to safety when a bullet struck him in the heart and he died instantly... He often talked about you, and your love for art.'

  

The young man held out this package. 'I know this isn't much. I'm not really a great artist, but I think your son would have wanted you to have this.' 

The father Opened the package. It was a portrait of his son, painted by the young man. He stared in awe at the way the soldier had captured the personality of his son in the painting The father was so drawn to the eyes that his own eyes welled up with tears.

 

He thanked the young man and offered to pay him for the picture. 'Oh, no sir, I could never repay what your son did for me. It's a gift' 

The father hung the portrait over his mantle. Every time visitors came to his home he took them to see the portrait of his son before he showed them any of the other great works he had collected. 

The man died a few months later. There was to be a great auction of his paintings. Many influential people gathered, excited over seeing the great paintings and having an opportunity to purchase one for their collection. 

On the platform sat the painting of the son. The auctioneer pounded his gavel. 'We will start the bidding with this picture of the son. Who will bid for this picture?' 

 

There was silence.. Then a voice in the back of the room shouted, 'We want to see the famous paintings. Skip this one.' 

But the auctioneer persisted. 'Will somebody= bid for this painting? Who will start the bidding? $100, $200?' 

Another voice angrily. 'We didn't come to see this painting. We came to see the Van Gogh's, the Rembrandts. Get on with the   Real bids!' 

But still the auctioneer continued. 'The son! The son! Who'll take the son?' 

Finally, a voice came from the very back of the room. It was the longtime gardener of the man and his son. 'I'll give $10 for the painting...' Being a poor man, it was all he could afford. 

 

We have $10, who will bid $20?' 

Give it to him for $10. Let's see the masters.'  The crowd was becoming angry. They didn't want the picture of the son. 

 

They wanted the more worthy investments for their collections.  The auctioneer pounded the gavel. 'Going once, twice, SOLD for $10!' 

A man sitting on the second row shouted, 'Now let's get on with the collection!' 

The auctioneer laid down his gavel. 'I'm sorry, the auction is over.' 

 

'What about the paintings?' 

I am sorry. When I was called to conduct this auction, I was told of a secret stipulation in the will. I was not allowed to reveal that stipulation until this time.

 

Only the painting of the son would be auctioned. Whoever bought that painting would inherit the entire estate, including the paintings. 

 

The man who took the son gets everything!' 

God gave us His son 2,000 years ago to die on the cross. Much like the auctioneer, His message today is: '"The Son, the Son, Who will take my Son??? 

Because, you see, whoever takes God's Son gets everything. 

FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, WHO SO EVER BELIEVETH, SHALL HAVE ETERNAL LIFE...That's Faith, That's Love, That's Everything!

HOT MUSIC REVIEW - Still Standing by Monica (@MonicaMyLife)

Still Standing by Monica

via en.wikipedia.org

In the last couple weeks, I have been listening to a lot of mixtapes, a lot of rap music, and missing out on some of the mainstream or commercial music! LOL! "Missing Out"! Yeah right! But you know what I mean! Anyway, I decided to take my chances with a few new releases and ran across this latest offering from ATL's finest, Monica! It is entitled, Still Standing! Recently, she started a new reality TV show (of the same name) which I have also yet to watch, probably because I am so damn tired of EVERY star, has-been and in between getting a reality show! My LIFE is a reality show enough, with all the DRAMA I hear about or go through! But I digress!

Anyway, back to the music! So, Still Standing! I would like to say, IT'S FIRE! If you can say that about R&B! I love R&B so I was already excited to see one of R&B's most talented Princesses return to the game! At 15, in 1995, Ms. Monica was THE HOTTEST commodity in the game! And I would have to say, thought it is short with only 10 tracks, this latest offering definitely re-seals the deal that she is one of R&B's HOTTEST (and not just because at 30YO she is DA BOMB!).

So WHAT DOES STYLEZ THINK? I have to say I enjoyed 8 of the 10 tracks, and even the ones that weren't the best, they were tolerable! I commend her and her team for making great track selections that I felt maintained her youth, but without making her sound like she was trying to revert back to her style as a teenager! The tracks are lively, which is a direct contrast to Alicia Keys' latest, but still hold true to R&B without getting to much like Pop offerings! Nor does it stray to far into the Hip-Hop genre, even though the title track does feature ATL's adopted son Ludacris (please don't argue this point, he stated it hisself, he IS NOT originally from ATL, he's from Champaign, IL!).

Anyway, if you haven't already, get out and cop that STILL STANDING by Monica! I am sure you won't be disappointed!

The N-Word! How does it impact YOUR life?

AS ALWAYS, I was scouring the FB posts and came across this pic (above!). I was like, whoa, why did someone post that! So I noticed it was my girl Telisha (of GoddessIntellect.com fame) and knew it would be on some, thought provoking, emotional, other worldly type ish! LOL! So I decided to look into it further! But she didn't give us the social commentary, she just made the PICTURE the commentary! So I was impressed as always.

Then I started reading the comments that came before me! One of them got me GOING (as always)! LOL! It wasn't a bad comment, it was just that the commenter said that they were surprised that, by now, after all these years, society still has yet to take the power away from this word! So, here is my reply, let me know what you think:

Actually, its not up to society to take the power away, its up TO YOU! Don't let WORDS, or even some people, make or break you! You have to remember that the love you have for yourself (and better, the love your God has for you) is MORE IMPORTANT than the love a PERSON can EVER bring you! You have to TAKE the power back from that word, and make it as unimportant as seeing the word CUPCAKE scrawled like that on a wall! You'd still wonder, WTF is wrong w/ the person who wrote it, but you'd care less about the "message" (or lack there of!). I have TAKEN the power away from it. I don't use it or its "endearing" alternative (nigga) in conversation either. I really feel like it's a word someone made up (yes, to hurt my people) but it's made up nonetheless, therefore... it's POWERLESS! I don't make time for ignorance, and this is definitely the epitome of ignorance; so there is never a reason for me to be upset by it! Well, outside of upset that society HASN'T convinced the perpetrator that its time to GROW THE HELL UP, get a job, get a clue and get a life! SMH!

Google's April Fool History

April Fool’s Day is the day of enjoyment in which people make fun of each other. It is a great day where we make pranks inside the offices, homes and markets. Not only these places but web is also enthusiast on the April Fool’s Day. One of the examples is Google. They have been elaborated their pranks over the years. There is a history of pulling the April Fools day pranks of Google. With an April Fool’s day prank Google each year decides to play a joke on the world for the entertainment of its users. Since 2000 the world has been pulled by the April Fool’s day jokes by Google. This year prank by the Google is the announcement of changing its name to Topeka. Some of the pranks that Google made in the past years are as follow.

MentalPlex (2000): in which brainwave activity, past browser history and mouse movements could be scanned by Google for figuring out where you wanted to go.

Pigeon Based Ranking System (2002): it was announced by Google that pigeons would be used for pecking away randomly on their computers on order to find websites. They claimed that information would be grabbed randomly by the pigeons thus more meshed web would be allowed. That was a well thought idea for a prank.

Google “Moon” Jobs (2004): This was the prank made by Google to the job seekers and was a part of the companies “Google Copernicus Hosting Environment and Experiment in Search Engineering (G.C.H.E.E.S.E.)’.

Brain Drink That Makes You Think Faster (2005): in this it was claimed by the Google that the DNA code of the human could be read with a special sensor o the lip of the bottle of Coca-Cola. The size of our DNA is just 3 Gigabytes as described by the Google.

Other pranks made by Google in the years 2006,2007,2008 and 2009 were Google Contextual Dating, Google Toilet Internet Service Provider, Google Worldwide Rickrolling + Other Pranks and Google Chrome 3D Browser respectively.

After my last couple of posts, I became nostalgic and wanted to get a list of great Google pranks, and found this list! I definitely look forward to seeing what the 2012 prank will be, seeing that it's the year predicted to be the end of human kind! I am sure Google is going to go ALL OUT for presumable their "last" prank! LOL!

April Fool's Revisited - GOOGLE CADIE's Favorite Places - Binary Perfection

Binary perfection

I received an e-mail from a prince here asking for money. I concluded that he was a legitimate source - as his lat-long coordinates are in perfect binary.

via maps.google.com

I was perusing some of Google's BEST April Fool's jokes, and came across CADIE (http://www.google.com/intl/en_us/landing/cadie)! I LOVED this joke and was going through some of the links provided by CADIE (the panda loving, Artificial Intelligence system from GOOGLE Labs!). On the Google Maps in particular, you can find a tag for the Lat-Long Coordinate of Binary Perfection (somewhere in Nigeria! x_x) , which CADIE proclaims that she received an email from a prince asking for money (LMFAO) and she felt he must have been legit because of his lat-long position! LOL!

There is also a SPECIAL SURPRISE mentioned in Area 51, as well as an even BIGGER surprise for you when you visit the link listed under Redmond, WA! LOL! Check it out today!

TOPEKA (the search engine formerly known as GOOGLE)

A different kind of company name

4/01/2010 12:01:00 AM

Early last month the mayor of Topeka, Kansas stunned the world by announcing that his city was changing its name to Google. We’ve been wondering ever since how best to honor that moving gesture. Today we are pleased to announce that as of 1AM (Central Daylight Time) April 1st, Google has officially changed our name to Topeka.

We didn’t reach this decision lightly; after all, we had a fair amount of brand equity tied up in our old name. But the more we surfed around (the former) Topeka’s municipal website, the more kinship we felt with this fine city at the edge of the Great Plains

via googleblog.blogspot.com

In it's infinite wisdom (and ultimate humor), Google has "officially" changed its name to TOPEKA! Yes, Topeka, as in Kansas! In what is being seen as another in Google's LONG history of FANSTASTICAL (sic) and elaborate April Fool's Day jokes, Google is dedicating this name change to the city of Topeka, due to it's unofficial name change last month to Google, Kansas! Topeka is vying for a spot on the list of cities that may receive 100GB Fiber connections to the internet, sponsored by the Google, uh, I mean Topeka, or ... WHATEVER!

Enjoy your April Fool's Day 2010, it appears that Google is! Or Topeka... OR... I'm confused! SMH!
