Random Thoughts And Observations

What Da Hell!! KiKi Freedman, local candidate here in Austin running for office, is trying to dismiss comments made earlier in the year on CNN...said it was taken out of context...DUH don't they all say that! I found it interesting as well that he commented on the fact "when i first said this, it wasn't a problem. Now, its getting closer to election time and they (media) is finding everything they can."
So was it really taken out of context? He is not denying he said it at all. What did he say, you ask? He was on a talk show on CNN discussing his position on several platforms. The host (can't remember the name) asked about sexual predators and sentencing. Now Kiki is known to be colorful character who quite frequently says some off the wall stuff. I mean he walks around in all black with matching black cowboy hat, smoking fat ass cigars...seriously. His comment was, yeah throw them in prison and throw away the key (here is the punch line ladies and gentlemen) then have 'em listen to a NEGRO TALK TO HIMSELF ALL THE TIME.......
uh.....what the hell is that suppose to mean?
like did he just say NEGRO? probably the closest word to NIGGER he could say w/o actually saying the word, ya know. and the talking to himself...whats that all about?
shaking head...crazy mofo!

Today, in North America, is the first day of Ramadan, an Islamic holiday lasting through October 23rd. I have known a lil about this, but thanks to Angel, i am reminded just how imortant this time may be. It is a time of fasting and prayer, and since the same day it was mentioned by Angel, and the same day i refound (lol) a small book on fasting and prayer...i figured i better listen to the spirit.
It is also a time of self-control, and to cleanse the body and mind. Damn, and i need some of that fo sho!
Before the sun rises you are to enjoy a meal called sukhoor, then no other liquid or solid is to enter your mouth until after sunset...when you enjoy the meal called iftar.
I figure this also will be a good time to start eating healthy again, and to cut the meat out during this time.
more prayer and reconnecting with God, and my own inner spirit...nothing but good can come from this.
Thank you Angel for planting the seed.

Almost 2 pounds of weed, 2/3 pound of mushrooms found in Willie Nelson's tour bus...he is given a misdemeanor?
-----------
A SCHOOL TEACHER ignores flashing lights and bus stopping to pick up children. speeds around bus and knocks an 11yr old child out of his shoes, now in critical condition. no charges have been filed yet. police allowed the damn B**** to leave the scene...oh and did i mention she was talking on her cell phone at the time of the CRIME!!
------------
Fed up!!
Ramadan, Perfect timing!

Right to Kinky. What the hell..talkin to himself? Not only is it offensive but it makes no got damn sense.

Good Luck with Ramadan...I am not strong enough for that...although I do have to say I hardly eat more than a meal or two a day these days. I will be working on cleansing however. I am gonna start spending some of this alone time in meditation. Havent for awhile...started praying again without tryin to figure it out.

Aint this the second time good ole Willy been caught with weed? And it is a scary visual to imagine him on shrooms.

It continually amazes me how different laws are applied to different people in the same situation...and I am not just talking about race. It seems crazy to me that laws seem subject to interpretation...dont they all go to the same academy??

i'm here to support you boo. interesting when people say they "couldn't do" Ramadan. its sole purpose is patience, faith, and commitment. like i said, i'm not Muslim, but i can get with the praying and fasting...especially if it helps me focus and centers my spirit...! :-)

I heard Kinky's comment when he first said it and his idea that the worst thing you could do to a person is have him listen to a "negro talk to himself" says a lot about Kinky.
