(Audio) I got on Charles Barkley about saying 'hood', last night. Weight Watchers might

take umbrage to SOMETHING ELSE HE SAID THOUGH..

“I’ve been on weight watchers three months, ” he said “I have to lose two pounds a week. I’m at 38 pounds now. They come and weigh me every two weeks. I ain’t never missed a weigh-in. Never going to. I’m feeling much better. But I ain’t giving away no money… I’m not giving away no free money. I thought this was the greatest scam going— getting paid for watching sports — this Weight Watchers thing is a bigger scam.”

Before you say it, I LIKE CHARLES BARKLEY. I like his candidness (rather his willingness to be that way) as more folks should be that way. I'm sure he doesn't 'care' what Weight Watchers thinks in the 'end' but I also think that Charles likes that check. (C'mon now, you know Charles isn't doing this FOR THE FREE!) So....that said....I don't think this is the 'smartest' thing he has said.

The 'hood' issue I had last night? Just wished he would have used the word heart or grit. I GOT WHAT HE WAS SAYING but saying it like that implies everyone from there has that. That is CLEARLY NOT THE CASE. Just ask all these cats running around talking about all the 'lames' in the World. Again, I got what he was saying. You need to be tough (ATL was playing soft) but to imply that toughness ONLY COMES FROM THAT AREA is absurd. In addition, for some, THAT AREA DOESN'T INCLUDE RURAL POOR AMERICA so you have to be CAREFUL EVEN WITH THAT. Now I know CHUCK MIGHT INCLUDE THAT WITHIN HIS DEFINITION OF 'HOOD' but for the folks who have NEVER BEEN OUTSIDE OF THEIR CONCRETE HOOD, they might not get it. He is on TNT. It is important that he make the distinction to me anyway. (Yeah..yeah..I know..some of you don't give a fuck. Got it. I do.) Not only that, I have some affluent country white boys that will knock your dick in the dirt for FUN. @ toughness. So yeah, I'm not really trying to hear all of that. Again, I KNOW CHARLES KNOWS SOME TOO! He is from Alabama! His 'core' audience may not though. That's all I'm saying..

Support

Let me be clear. I need you to SUPPORT the artist whose music you see/hear in the music player here. Some of them are my FRIENDS!! I want them to make money. So while I may put up a link here or there that they didn't 'endorse', it is only out of the love for their music and the fact that I want you to SUPPORT THEM. So please do. Seek out their music. Some of them are VASTLY UNDERRATED and your FAVORITE MUSICIAN loves them. So it isn't 'talent'. It is exposure. Which is all I am trying to give them here.. SO SUPPORT THEM!!!

Pictures/Women. I post 'em up ON THE REG. I post 'em, pay the compliments I want to when necessary and leave it at that. Period. If you happen to be the 'man in the young lady's life', don't worry dawg, I don't want your woman. I'm good.

If the fact that I do post up women means that you don't 'respect' any serious topic I discuss then your 'Fuck You and your respect ' is in the link below...Go ahead and read it....I think that should about cover how I feel about what 'you think'..

As for the 'woman' who are afraid of being 'exploited' by a site like the one I run here..Or who feel like I 'stole' your pics or something along those lines.. I have addressed you as well...

UPDATE: The Internet World has evolved. I will leave the disclaimer up however as most of you know, press is press to most people.

I do occasionally interview folks so browse around. I don't call them interviews though. I call 'em 'Chats' 'cause that is usually what is like. Not claiming to be some CNN reporter over here. Just asking questions that many of us want answers to and some questions that some of you don't THINK TO ASK OR THINK CERTAIN FOLKS ARE GOING THROUGH/THINKING ABOUT/DOING. I like to dig deep so if you agree to an interview, be prepared. I might ask you anything. I probably will stay away from the majority of the 'standard' questions though. Just bare that in mind.

The popular posts usually contain enough POSITIVE examples of how this works great for both THE BLOG and the subjects of the posts. Usually, those post are a DIRECT RESULT of support from the young lady via a posting on THEIR OWN TWITTER, blog or Facebook. So thank you for that IN ADVANCE (and if you have done so in the past..) for that mutual support. It is appreciated. Truly.

Oh and one more thing...

I DON'T WATER MARK PICTURES THAT I DIDN'T EITHER TAKE OR WERE NOT ORIGINALLY GIVEN TO ME. I have seen folks RUSH TO DO IT and it is pretty damm sad. Not my style. I am not a fool. I know that most of what I do in regards to pictures can be replicated so there is no need to act like I'm out here doing more than what it is. I provide a space to see a collection of pictures in that regard. Nothing more. Nothing less. Watermarking pictures that aren't 'mine per say kinda comes off a little pompous to me. That's just me though..

I want you to be able to tell when I do TAKE THE PICTURE without me saying as much. What do I look like watermarking your pictures up if I didn't 'take them'?

You see the watermark on a picture here with the blog's name in it? Then you know I took the picture in some fashion. Screen shot. With the camera phone. With the Canon or the web cam. Or it was given to me for exclusive use. (At least at press time)
