All these LEGAL drugs killing off the American youth of today. That's a damn shame. Where is marijuana in all this??? Just sitting back in the corner not killing anyone, not addicting anyone, and not ruing lives. And it's still ILLEGAL!!! Plus the legal drugs are so easy to obtain cause all they have to do is get a script for them and sell 'em.

I don't pop pills at all cause i seen the damage it does to a human soul. I choose to go all natural when it comes to remedies.Too bad these billion dollar drug companies don't don't care. Marijuana is suitable, i don't need pharmaceutical,lol. Check the bible; "every seed-bearing plant that is upon the surface of the entire earth and every tree that has seed-bearing fruit."....marijuana bears seeds right???Marijuana is suitable, i don't need pharmaceutical,lol.SMOKE DA HERBS!!!

That man is the most amazing preacher on the planet. He doesn't push his religion in your face to try to convert you. He's straight foward and real. It's like God's speaking through him to me. He made me create a relationship with God and now my life is really nice!! Im not Christian, but he's gets my love.He made me stay positive and become the victor, not the victim. If i met him i'd prolly cry all over him,hahahaha!!He's a true blessing from God.

I suggest the WHOLE WORLD get his new book. It's like the new Bible.

BUILD GIANT IONIC BREEZE AIR PURIFIERS!!!!hahahaha!!! Have like 40,000 of them in India and China and like 100,000 all over America. Thousands more elsewhere around the globe. Primarily economically developing cities that burn coal.Have them run on solar power and have then caged in away from perching birds.It might just cool this place down. Have them running 24/7. Get the fire department to hose down the giant filters everyday for like an hour.It might be just the solution we need.

 If we have the power to "HEAT UP A PLANET" and we're just microscopic organisms compared to the whole universe, we can damn sure "COOL DOWN A PLANET". Our brains (and the Sun)play a big role in global warming. So the smarter we get the more we can prevent. But eventually the sun will explode and burn all nine planets, ha!!

BLEEP are these guys doing in Iraq??? Don't we have the WHOLE U.S. MILITARY(the strongest in the world, by far) guarding diplomats in Iraq. They said they're  ex-navy seals.....  what the heck we need EX navy seals for?? We have young, well-trained, fit navy seals already in the Navy. So why do we need Blackwater giving us a bad name in Iraq??I think they should stand trial for what they did. They look like a bunch of skinheads with guns if you ask me, hahahaha!!

What's up with that strange name, also??Blackwater, what happened to Whitewater?? hahahaha!!.....if water turns black, what does it resemble??? think about it....

You know I was going to blog about this one. OMG!! Those country white folks are still a**backwards down there  in LA. What makes you think there wouldn't be racial tension by putting nooses on trees after the black people sat there. pretty darn stupid!! I'm glad he got his a** whooped so it teach his redneck a** a lesson!!! That sucks the black guys getting charge with some B.S. charge and the whites don't get charged for the nooses. The nooses AUTOMATICALLY sets off any black person and shouldn't have be done. Just because the black folks wanted to sit under the tree where the whites sit.. the whites figure it's their territory and no one but whites can sit there. I got a message for that.....THAT'S THE NATIVE AMERICANS' TREE  SO IF YOU WANT A TREE TO SIT UNDER AND CLAIM, GO BACK TO EUROPE WITH THAT B.S., PILGRIM!!!!! rrrrrrr...im not racist but , F***, it's 2007,can us black folks get some justice around here??????

From the famous words of Rodney King, "Can't we all just get along"!!!!!
 

 On the eve of the Ethiopian exhibit,Lucy, most are gonna here the name there and become curious. so here a lil excerpt i got from tha net....so, HAIL HAILE!!

The facts of his life are well known. Haile Selassie's influence on the world is his most enduring legacy. Born Tafari Makonnen in 1891, Haile Selassie came to be identified inextricably with Ethiopia. Only rarely in the modern world does the story of a man become so closely linked to the story of a nation. It is said that great events beget great men, but they beget failures as well, and the boundary between the two is often defined by singular acts of courage. These the Ethiopian Emperor did not lack.

Not surprisingly, the fortitude of the man sometimes referred to as "The Lion" inspired Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King and even Malcom X, each of whom corresponded with Haile Selassie --who advocated civil disobedience when it was necessary to remedy fundamental social injustice or restore freedom to the oppressed. The Emperor's presence at President Kennedy's funeral is still remembered. It seems somehow appropriate that the motion picture Born Free was filmed in Ethiopia during Haile Selassie's reign.

One speaks of leaders of men as though their public lives were completely divorced from their private ones. For a hereditary monarch, this should not be the case. What his children think of him is as important as what everybody else thinks. Haile Selassie was a devoted husband and father. His wife, Empress Menen, died in 1962. His sons, Sahle Selassie, Makonnen, and Asfa Wossen, had a great sense of duty to their father and to their people. Of his daughters, Princess Tenagne, in particular, excercised various official duties.

Haile Selassie ascended the throne in the era of polar exploration and slow communication. Africa's oldest nation was little more than a footnote to the great stories of the day --something that Americans and Brits read about in the pages of the National Geographic. Some people still called the country Abyssinia. In certain countries far beyond Ethiopia's borders, segregation and apartheid were long established and little questioned. Most other African "nations" were colonies. Even at home, slavery was technically still legal.

In such an era, words like "pan-Africanism" and "civil rights" were little more than esoteric philosophical notions entertained by an enlightened few. That a country as backward as Italy, whose widespread poverty prompted the emigration of millions, would seek to devour a nation like Ethiopia, was an irony too subtle to raise eyebrows outside the most sophisticated intellectual circles. With British backing, Haile Selassie returned to defeat the Italian army which, in the event, the Allies never viewed as much more than a nuisance. The British themselves considered the Ethiopian campaign in its strategic context --as a way to free the Red Sea from possible Axis control-- as much as the liberation of a sovereign nation. To the Ethiopians, it was as much a moral victory as a military one.

The Emperor's speech to the League of Nations denouncing the Italian invasion is remembered more than the aggression itself. It prompted essentially ineffectual international trade sanctions against a European nation but, like the Battle of Adwa four decades earlier, represented in a tangible way one of the few occasions in the modern era that an African nation defied the arrogance of a European one.

There were very few world leaders of the post-war era who had actually led troops in combat. Haile Selassie and Dwight Eisenhower were exceptional in this respect, which partially accounts for their close friendship.

Even when the foe is truly formidable, courage has a psychological side that has little to do with combat or physical victory. One may seem defeated materially without being defeated morally. Perhaps it's a question of confidence, values or knowledge. Haile Selassie's greatest strength was as a builder of bridges --across rivers but also between cultures. His travels took him to many countries, and he became one of the most popular heads of state, and one of the most decorated men in the world.

It was during one such voyage, in 1960, that he had to rush home to confront an attempted overthrow of the existing order. This perhaps served as a reminder that the most dangerous revolutions are found in one's own house. The sovereign who was once known as a reformer now found himself resented by many members of the very social class his economic and educational policies had helped to create. Internationally, however, his prestige did not suffer. The Emperor established the Organisation of African Unity (OAU) in 1963, with a headquarters in Addis Ababa.

The revolution of 1974 was supported by outside forces, and while its roots were domestic, its covert objectives cannot be said to have been supported by more than a small fraction of Ethiopians. Truth be told, administrative practices which worked well in 1950 were terribly inefficient by the 1970s, and a series of problems were cited as a pretext for a full scale coup d'etat. Ethiopia's pre-industrial economy was no better prepared for Marxism than Russia's had been in 1917. Communism's ultimate social and economic failure, in Ethiopia as well as in Russia, certainly indicates democracy's superiority, whether that democracy is embodied by a republic or a constitutional monarchy. The Derg's alliance with the Soviet Union made Ethiopia the instrument of a foreign power, precisely the thing Haile Selassie resisted.

He had a Solomonic pedigree, but Haile Selassie was a man of the people. Perhaps that's how he should be remembered.

If you don't believe so, go view the Lucy exhibit at The Museum of Natural Science on August 31.Then,you'll see why us Jamaicans praise Haile Selassie the First aka "Rastafari", King of Ethiopia. I heard Ethipoia is the only place where christians, jews, and muslims live in harmony. why's that?and supposedly that's where the Arch of the Covenant is held aka 'The 10 Commandments'(that's a big deal). Also, Ethiopia is refered to as The Cradle of Mankind, housing  the richest and most priceless artifact in human history.

Hmmmmmm.....I wonder which city on earth  is the "Holy City", not Rome.

Hire all these hundreds of millions of immigrants from Mexico that want to contribute to this country. Pay them the wages they pay the Chinese workers(or a tad bit more) and fill back up them factory jobs. Make more products here and abolish Free Trade. America could export more goods to other countries that are safe and durable. Cause we don't export BLEEP, we just get imports...steady spending money. That would in return, make our dollar stronger and our economy better. We need to have greater ties with Mexico instead of being bullies to take on China's B.S.. What if we're trying to deport our economic solution??

And another thing, if American workers are pissed cause their jobs are being given to immigrant workers, no offense but...STEP UP YOUR GAME!!! GO TO SCHOOL AND GET A DEGREE IF YOU WANNA MAKE MORE MONEY!!!America's changing and you have to make a quite bit more money these days to survive. If not, we need the millions of immigrants to help sustain this growing, demanding country.

We don't need BLEEP from China!!! We have Mexico and ALL of Latin America to get our goods from.Plus Africa, too. Anything you can produce, grow, or catch can be done in Mexico, Latin America and Africa. Build up Africa's and Mexico's economy instead of making China stronger so they can just poison us. We aint never gonna learn until we stop being racist and greedy. That's the REAL problem, i don't give a s**t what any of you bloggers say!!! F*** that!!
