Food for Thought: Question 1


So as technology becomes more and more a part of our lives.  And those of us who truly know how to use technology to make our lives so simple, I have a very good question to ask.

Would you rather lose the use of all motorized vehicles, all telecommunication devices and computers, or one of your hands?

Motorized vehicles are becoming computer enhanced to start by themselves, warm your ass, and finally include that all important map for men to find their way around, since they don’t like to ask for directions. I often hear some people complaint about how they don’t like cars becoming more like computers with a hard drive in them.  Because some of you may have experience where your car stopped in the middle of the street and caused an accident.  And what is the first excuse that you should use?  It is the manufacture fault!! But why can’t it be the driver’s fault since he or she probably did not completely read the car manual to know how to work the car and use the car to its fullest.  Dealers only gives you clip notes about the car to sale it. I love it when a non-tech savvy person purchase a new technology car and then get mad at the technology.  So not the car’s fault people!!

With a show of hand, how many of you can go a day without using your smart phone?  Millions of y’all cannot go 5 minutes.   Some of y’all are even like me and sleep with your cell phone and\or tablet or laptop in the bed with you, right?  Yeah, I am woman enough to admit that and would often prefer them than a man in the bed with me.   Oops! 

I remember the telephone being a much bigger device that sat on the table somewhere in the corner of the living room or on the wall in the kitchen.  Standing there with the receiver in one hand and your other hand on your hip with an expression on your face as you ask the question “Why wasn’t Bobby Jo smart enough to figure that out?” Or “Where in the hell is Marsha?”

If you really think about it, the game Operation was your computer back then, and today we have the Kindle.  Okay that is my new game board that I can carry in my purse.  All 35 games for now, to entertainment me even when I am on a boring date. 
Because of telecommunication devices and computers, some of y’all do not know how to leave work at work!  Some of you husbands need to explain to your wife that your job is your mistress.  And you are really having a hard time breaking up with the laptop because she does not know how to accept “no” for an answer.  Advice: stop giving her input.

But to lose a left or right hand, then how will I wash the dishes?  I would need to find a new way to put my cousins in a head lock.  You know some people use both hands to get off, I cannot image how will work out.

So to answer the question that I asked, I would pick motorized vehicles because I need my hands to order Uber on my telecommunication device.

Until next time.

Breaking the Cycle!

As a parent we always want the best for our child(ren)., and we start with educating them on things that we think that would be best for them to know as they grow up.  I was still a teenager when I became pregnant with my only child, Nicolas.  Did I wanted a child at that time?  No I didn't and it was my mother who said to keep him and that she would help me raise him.  My mother was also a teenage parent starting with me and a year later came my one of two brothers.  Now you are probably thinking that my mother why didn't she teach me not to become a teenage parent?   I am assuming that and I was right, that she did not know how.  She wanted to do my best with my life but she did not know to explain to me how to go about living life.  Growing up with 3 younger siblings I saw the struggles that my mother went through, and in my head I knew that I was not willing to do some of things that she.  I knew in my head that if I was ...

Can you commit a Crime?

So when I came across this question: What is the most serious law you’ve broken doing something you thought was morally right, wouldn’t hurt anyone, or was no one’s business but yours?  How bad would the punishment have been if you’d been caught and given the maximum sentence? I was first like “Let me get a parking ticket first before I start thinking about doing something more serious that would retain to the law.”  That’s right yours truly here has never had any tickets from the police or even broken any law. I am a chicken shit when it comes to the law. Hell, let me get a speeding ticket while I am at it! There are some of you who are so much more advanced in this law breaking thing. That I am just going to find a corner and sit there. But let’s think about the jury and if you were on the jury, would you be willing to convict a person for something you didn’t think should be consideration a crime?  If you are like me, then you hate it when you when tha...

Family Drama

Hello everyone, I know the that year is coming to an end and everyone is busy with Christmas coming and the New Year coming, oh there is just so much coming at once. I am so happy to get away this coming Christmas that I can not possibility can not find a way to put it all in writing.  If you did not have family drama during Thanksgiving then it is waiting for you for Christmas. And don’t you just love when you have to deal with family drama? Like parties involved expect you to be involve or they get mad because you try to apply some rationality to the situation that they are either not able to see or not willing to admit the solution.This is the killer part ladies and gentlemen, both parties or all parties believe that they are right. Here is anything that is amazing about family drama: if you voice your opinion they get mad at you. And stay mad at you! Am I right? Y’all I got family drama in the house but then again when is there never drama in the house. ...
