Just for people of color.





LOVE BLACK FOLK! -
THERE'S NOBODY LIKE EM'


With black folks, everything starts late! Everything ends late. Time is just a thang!

Black folks' philosophy about time is, "We may not be on time, but we are in time, and we don't want to miss anything."

Black folks arrive late for weddings, funerals, and Sunday church services! And then act like they are on time!

Black folks will go to social functions, particularly at church, and not stay for the program, but want to wrap up some food to take home as if the event is fast food "take out."

When some black preachers can't think of what else to say during a sermon, will say, "Look at your neighbor and say, 'God loves you!"

Every black family has a preacher...

When a lead choir member can't reach a high note or has forgotten the words, the choir members will get filled with "a holy ghost," get happy, shout and not have to finish the song.

A black gospel choir can sing a three word song for twenty minutes.

In the black church, the announcements are longer than the sermon.

Black folks cry and pass out at the funeral, but are fine and laughin' at the dinner following the interment.

The black church takes twenty minutes to take up an offering at an afternoon program and only raise $76.34! (don't forget they take an hour to count it again after church).

Black folks will ask grandparents to watch their kids while they run an errand but don't pick them up until two days later.

Black folks eat "fried" bologna.

Black folks refer to diabetes as, "Sugar."

Don't ask black folks for the precise time. They respond, "Almost a quarter after...." or a "little after two."

Black folks will eat ferociously at the family dinner, and then have the nerve to start wrappin' stuff up in foil to take home.

Black cashiers always seem to have an attitude.

Black folks sell CDs, potato chips, nabs and sodas out the trunk of their cars after church and at the football game.

Black folks have at least one person in the family who still wears a Jheri curl.

Black folks stay engaged for six years and never get married.

Black folks will have the telephone company shut off their house phone, but still have a cell phone on.

Black folks put hot sauce and ketchup on everything!

Black folks have at least one family member that "almost" made it to the pros.

Black folks will owe you and everybody else in the neighborhood money but can buy a new car.

Black folks re-use ZipLoc baggies, paper plates, plastic forks, spoons, and knives.

Black folks put thin left over bars of soap in jars or plastic containers, run scalding hot water over them to melt them down to use as dishwashing liquid or home made bubble bath.

Black folks won't throw anything away! The rationale is that you never know when you might need it!


IN SPITE OF ALL OF OUR PECULIAR WAYS, I STILL LOVE BLACK FOLKS! DON'T YOU?? lol

YOU'D BETTER CUZ YOU IS ONE!

Go on and smile...It is not that serious!

"Those who read are those who lead,
Those who don't, are totally deceived.
How will you grow, if you don't know?"
............... Words of Wisdom................... Peace depends on the existence of love.

To Be 6 Again...


A man was sitting on the edge of the bed, observing his wife, looking at herself in the mirror. Since her birthday was not far off he asked what she'd like to have for her Birthday. 'I'd like to be six again', she replied, still looking in the mirror. On the morning of her Birthday, he arose early, made her a nice big bowl of Lucky Charms, and then took her to Six Flags theme park. What a day! He put her on every ride in the park; the Death Slide, the Wall of Fear, the Screaming Monster Roller Coaster, everything there was. Five hours later they staggered out of the theme park. Her head was reeling and her stomach felt upside down He then took her to a McDonald's where he ordered her a Happy Meal with extra fries and a chocolate shake. Then it was off to a movie, popcorn, a soda pop, and her favorite candy, M&M's. What a fabulous adventure! Finally she wobble d home with her husband and collapsed into bed exhausted. He leaned over his wife with a big smile and lovingly asked, 'Well Dear, what was it like being six again??' Her eyes slowly opened and her expression suddenly changed. 'I meant my dress size, you idiot!' The moral of the story: Even when a man is listening, he's gonna get it wrong.

Call Me

If one day you feel like crying…
Call me.
I don’t promise you that I will make you laugh...
But I can cry with you



If one day you want to run away, don’t be afraid to call me.
I don’t promise to ask you to stop, but I can run with you.






If one day you don’t want to listen to anybody; Call me and… I promise to be very quiet…




But… If one day you call and there is no answer…







Come fast to see me….

Perhaps I need you!!!

6 secrets to saving power

Saving staggeringly high amounts of energy is now as simple as unplugging your computer.
Back when electricity costs were relatively low, easy eco-friendly initiatives like unplugging weren’t as high a priority. Yet recent surveys have revealed that around two-thirds of businesses are now paying more attention to energy efficiency than they were just a year ago. Some companies are motivated to act by rising energy prices; others have a genuine commitment to lowering their carbon footprint.
Read on to find six easy ways to save a huge amount of energy at work – and at home, too. You’ll reduce your electric bill, and also help the environment.
1. Simply unplug your appliances
It is a common misconception that hardware uses no power when not switched on. Many appliances continue to draw a small amount of power when they are switched off – and that little bit can really add up. Studies have revealed that a shocking 75 percent of electricity is used by hardware that is turned off.
Have you ever noticed that your mobile phone or iPAQ charger is hot to touch even when it is not in use? This is because it draws energy the entire time the device is plugged in.
To avoid this costly power drain, simply unplug devices from the wall every time you finish using them. This might initially be a difficult habit to get into, but soon it will be second nature and you’ll notice a fantastic difference in your electricity bills.
2. Switch to power-saving settings
You don’t have to be an IT expert to improve your PC’s energy efficiency. With any desktop PC or notebook PC running Microsoft® Windows® you can quickly reset its energy-saving settings.
Just go to "Start" and click on "Control Panel", then select the "Power Options" menu. Here you can reduce the power you use by changing your energy-saving settings from "idle" to "standby". This means every time you take a break and leave your PC running, you use 20 to 50 times less electricity.
To save even more electricity, reduce the time delay before your PC switches to a power-saving mode. See your "Power Options" menu to make this quick change.
3. Turn-off your screen saver
Another efficiency tip is turning off your screen saver. Studies have revealed that monitors using a screen saver eat up much more energy than those in standby mode.
4. Backup during the day
Even more power can be spared if you schedule your computer’s data backup during your workday – for example, during your lunch break. Doing this means that you won’t have to leave your computer on overnight, and you have an excuse to take a proper break during the day.
5. Buy energy-efficient products
These days ENERGY STAR® qualified office equipment is easy to find and affordable to buy. It provides you with dramatic power savings, as much as 90 percent for certain products.
HP designs its wide range of ENERGY STAR® qualified office equipment to provide highest performance with lower energy usage. For example, new server and workstation systems are designed to maintain power efficiency while meeting the needs of high-throughput, data-intensive applications.
6. Complete the conservation cycle
Whether you work with a large enterprise, a small- to medium-sized business, or have a home office, when you are finished with your hardware or printing supplies, remember to recycle them. Check out HP’s trade-in, donate and recycling options for your used computer or printing hardware, batteries and HP printing supplies.
And don’t forget, once you have disposed of your old equipment, you can purchase new energy-efficient solutions.

Tips for lowering gas prices



May be worth it!


THIS IS NOT THE 'DON'T BUY' GAS FOR ONE DAY, BUT IT WILL SHOW YOU HOW WE CAN GET GAS BACK DOWN TO $1.30 PER GALLON. This was sent by a retired Coca Cola executive. It came from one of his engineer buddies who retired from Halliburton. If you are tired of the gas prices going up AND they will continue to rise this summer, take time to read this please. Phillip Hollsworth offered this good idea.This makes MUCH MORE SENSE than the "don't buy gas on a certain day" campaign that was going around last April or May! It's worth your consideration. Join the resistance!!!! We need to take some intelligent, united action. The oil companies just laughed at that because they knew we wouldn't continue to "hurt" ourselves by refusing to buy gas . It was more of an inconvenience to us than it was a problem for them. BUT, whoever thought of this idea, has come up with a plan that can Really work. Please read on and join with us! By now you're probably thinking gasoline priced at about $2.00 is super cheap. Me too! It is currently $3.49 for regular unleaded in my town, Seattle.Now that the oil companies and the OPEC nations have conditioned us to think that the cost of a gallon of gas is CHEAP at $1.50 - $1.75, we need to take aggressive action to teach them that BUYERS control the marketplace..not sellers. With the price of gasoline going up more each day, we consumers need to take action. The only way we are going to see the price of gas come down is if we hit someone in the pocketbook by not purchasing their gas! And, we can do that WITHOUT hurting ourselves. How? Since we all rely on our cars, we can't just stop buying gas. But we CAN have an impact on gas prices if we all act together to force a price war. Here's the idea: For the rest of this year, DON'T purchase ANY gasoline from the two biggest companies (which now are one), EXXON and MOBIL. If they are not selling any gas, they will be inclined to reduce their prices. If they reduce their prices, the other companies will have to follow suit. But to have an impact, we need to reach literally millions of Exxon and Mobil gas buyers. It's really simple to do! Now, don't wimp out on me at this point...keep reading and I'll explain how simple it is to reach millions of people!! I am sending this note to 30 people. If each of us send it to at least ten more (30 x 10 = 300) ... and those 300 send it to at least ten more (300 x 10 = 3,000)... and so on, by the time the message reaches the sixth group of people, we will have reached over THREE MILLION consumers .If t hose three million get excited and pass this on to ten friends each, then 30 million people will have been contacted! If it goes one level further, you guessed it..... THREE HUNDRED MILLION PEOPLE!!! Again, all you have to do is send this to 10 people. That's all! (If you don't understand how we can reach 300 million and all you have to do is send this to 10 people.... How long would all that take? If each of us sends this e-mail out to ten more people within one day of receipt, all 300 MILLION people could conceivably be contacted within the next 8 days!!! I'll bet you didn't think you and I had that much potential, did you! Acting together we can make a difference. If this makes sense to you, please pass this message on. I suggest that we not buy from EXXON/MOBIL UNTIL THEY LOWER THEIR PRICES TO THE $2.00 RANGE AND KEEP THEM DOWN. THIS CAN REALLY WORK.
