Loquacious Levity 2-5-2008

I think a rose by any other name would smell different. For thousands of years people have referred to roses as roses. You know the thorns, and you know the colors and of course, you know the smell. There is a certain connotation to the word. Now, lets say we started calling roses- milk and milk- roses. Don't you think milk would start to smell like roses and vice versa?...

So what i guess im saying is...you dont experience words. Just connotations. If you had been told ice cream was poisonous from birth, wouldnt you stay the hell away from ice cream? Wouldnt it smell sour to you regardless of the condition? Or did i just fucking blow your mind...

Or was that the worse theory i have ever had about anything.

Some superbowl commercials cost about 90 grand per 30 seconds...3 grand a second? I understand the price given the number of people that will see it but hot damn i dont think id pay 3 grand/sec for anything. Well, non-sexual that is...

But, that would have to be one hell of a lay though

Happy Black History Month!

I just heard about some virtuous gentleman that was a civil rights activist in the 50's and 60's. Good guy. Powerful speaker, but the poor fellow got shot while he gave a speech. I wonder why I dont hear about him any other time of year? Thats weird.

I know that February is black history month b/c of Lincolns birthday, etc., etc. But, i mean did we have to get the shortest month though? Damn even when america is playing nice, they still fuck us over...

Where the hell is my 40 acres and a mule...

BTW, I would hate to live in an era where 40 acres and a mule represent compensation.

Man, its march 1st and i know i forgot to do something...umm...read some black authors, watched that PBS special about black stars and their ancestors. hmmm what did i forget...

Oh yeah, to bribe my sweetheart for all the fuck-ups thus far and to come...damn...

So if i were broke and couldn't buy a valentine's gift, would that mean i didnt love you...

Of course though if im broke, i probably havent taken you on a date. So shit man you've made it this far...a hug and a lick should do you fine

So its Super Tuesday today. Uh-huh. Riiiighhht....Now remind me why the hell we are voting 9 mths before the presidential election.

Since its Black History Month, lets put a moratorium on the black man=big penis thing. I mean im alright(havent received any complaints) but i get tired of having to live up to the standard...

Oh yeah, another moratorium on the use of the word "racism"in inappropriate circumstances. Just b/c barry bonds has to go to trial, b/c mike vick had to go to jail, b/c a white ref. calls a foul on a black player, or even b/c some jerk like Imus calls someone nappy does not mean that it is racism. No lets reserve that for the inordinate amount of minorities behind bars. Lets reserve that for the lack of minority business loans; the lack of minority home owners. Lets reserve that for our immigration policy, etc, etc. To keep throwing this word around cheapens it. It cheapens everytime a black man was lynched for looking a white woman. It cheapens every time a native american(and thats the only PC term i used on the regular b/c to say indians is actually erroneous given that it was given b/c of a lost explorer) had to walk thousands of miles just to move to another land(the trail of tears: read up on that. it was FUCKED up and my state did that...)...
This word is about hate, unadulterated, turn a good man crazy hate. I spoke earlier on connnotations. Lets not cheapen the connotation of the word. When this word is uttered it should reflect the gravity of the situation it describes...not just b/c you didnt get your way.

This isnt like the term "nigger", niggah, nucca or any of its derivatives, b/c of the fact that the term has been taken back by the people it has been used against(call it empowerment or call it misuse). This changes the connotation of the word...
Now, nigga can be used in its original context, but there again its about connotation. I have no problem with the word used in a slang way. I have a problem though when it is used to convey hate from one to another.

The funny thing is the only difference in physiological terms b/t me and a white man, a hindu man, or an eskimo is the level of melanin in my skin which changes the color of my skin and creates a darker tone.

And, apparently the size of my penis too, but thats up for debate
