yEP! Wendy got handed the golden microphone! She will have her own talk show in 2009!
I hope the scandal nonsense is fixed or handled by then! And where is your movie Ms. Williams? November maybe??!!
Next!
Barack Obama is 5% behind in the polls! Whose polls?
Are you telling me that he is not getting votes from the White Democrates? Strange to me that Hillary Clinton has to be placed on the ballot for the Dems…to discuss.
Personally, anything like this makes me uncomfortable…how about you?
Next!
Martin Lawrence, John Travolta, Macy, and Tim Allen….what a great all star cast in “WILD HOGS!”
Martin Lawrence was great!~ A good look! I know, I know….I purchased it! in Holliwood Video!
Great and funny flick indeed! I loved it! I keep rewatching it over and over.
I love John Travolta…(did you see one of his earliest movies…called “BOY IN THE PLASTIC BUBBLE?” jOHN Travolta was a “sleeper”—and a keeper back then!
Tim Allen….I love his Santa Clause! He is cute in his own little way. I am glad to see him doing well.
Mr. Macy…also another cutie-patoOtie! Very silly, yet innocent and childlike in his mannerisms!
Go rent this flick…I AM almost ready to go out and get a Harly Davidison so I can get on the open road myself..and save gas at the same time!
NEXT!
CHILD ABUSE….PARENTING CLASSES…FOR ALL MOTHERS TO BE …NO MATTER WHAT THE AGE!!!!
The news about the dead toddler is taking my heart away! I cannot voice or write my words of what I truly feel about the circumstances that I heard discribed by 1010 Wins today. But I will say this….can we stop our moments of selfish giddy behavior when we hear that a baby is being born to a family and then run the famiy, the family friends, to PARENTING CLASSES….PLEEZE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NEXT!
GOLF….AND COLLEGE SCHOLARSHIPS….THINK ABOUT IT !
I will fill you in on this later….

UNIVERSE AND WEAVE IN HARMONY
TOUCHING is strange.
I run from being touched
Possibly afraid of
my own reaction
Possibly afraid that
it might feel too good
So his hands were gentle
his voice stroked the
side of my neck as
he bent over and whispered
something in my ear
I fought the feeling
and I was angry at
myself…for fighting it
for being committed
to MORAL VALUES
for being committed
to religious beliefs
I will not falter…
I will not fall.
ALTHOUGH TEMPTED
i will not crawl
beneath the power
of the temptation
I will stand with
head held high
And later…I truly will
let out a deep, full sigh
For yes I was hurt by your blunt
display…I wanted a different,
much different way…
Yet deep within…there
was another spin
My heart said no….no….NO!
Songs of love, wedding bells,
engagment rings, buying a new house
the first baby….then the loss of my
husband….
And now this….ONE man now approaches and
he does not want to start a family,
he does not want to get married,
he does not want that first baby
he does not and will not buy me
and engagement ring.
He simply wants my
body….or what
he perceives is my body
from what he can see through
my clothes.
My feelings are hurt…my soul is burnt
my heart bleeds…for what I lost.
We, my husband and I would
have made love all night
and then the sun would catch
us laying in each others arms and
talking about the day and our lives together…
My husband would arise and shower.
I would lay and slumber longer
I would be rosed by bacon and eggs that
my husband would serve
me in bed
Now….our marriage, our
relationship is DEAD—
DEAD…due to catastrophic disease…
Lost is my lover, my best friend…my husband…
and NOw I ponder..
the value of my life…
under this new world order…
do I allow myself
to be short changed
and live life according to
limitations of feeling used,
and undervalued?
In my dreams…I experience
intimacy…but not hurt feelings
In my dreams… I remember my
true love…my lost love…My husband….now
gone….So
that human touch, that slight embrace, around my
neck, that whisper….
has awoken a spirit of
urgency…but
yet i with draw and
remember you….
IN MY DREAMS.

Well, I have heard it all, and seen it all now! Have we reversed back to the Jim Crow days again?
What is this with the book on Obama? Why are people stating that he is muslim. Is it a crime to be a muslim? Where have the rights, and values of individuals decreased to? How can someone smear a presidencial candate to such a level.
If Barak Obama did not know he was in the furnance of racism…he definitely knows it now. —They are throwing stones and accusations. This is being done because they want power in their hands so that they can do what they want.
They want everybody to believe that they are the good guys. And it would appear that as soon as they get “in” they will turn on us as well. This is a difficult world that we live in. These people who are writing this stuff do not care about Obama’s wife, or children.
They do not care about the effect of this evil campaign on his American Born and raised children. I can see that Barak has strong family values…I hope that he talks openly with his daughters, and of course they know the truth of who they are and who their mother and father are.
But it has got to be difficult to be so young and hear suck terrible things about one’s father….especially in such a public way. You do not have to like Obama….but think about his children for a moment.
Think about his White grandparents and his half sister. What did these people do to deserve this assult on their personal beliefs and values? Is it a crime to be an Mix-race European/Afro American and be in the running for president of the United States?!!!
Let us move forward..according to 1010 wins today 8/16/08..a pigeon was found covered in purple paint walking around in a park yesterday in Queens New York. Why would anyone want to harm an animal is so beyond me. It is so very sad.
A baby was shaken to death yesterday—also reported by 1010wins news this morning. Another news story that I cannot stomach very well. Does anyone get a talk before they take these newborn babies home? When I gave birth to my son, I was told to treat him like a king! Not to allow him to control me…but that he was a little king in the house hold. Give him love and affection. Babies cry…that is normal.
Where is this logic that if you shake a child harshly that it will stop crying? This hurts my heart so deeply. Oh, it is becoming too, too much. The human baby should be placed on the endangered species.
We need to place all expectant parents in parenting schools…I mean it. Proper care and maintance of new borns and what to expect as the child matures and grows. Also the topic on what constitutes CHILD ABUSE. Educate people and then that might decrease some of these very dangerous and fatal actions by relatives and parents.
Yesterday I traveled up to Nyack. I had to run to my college. Nyack College. I went across the Tappanzee Bridge. Strange bridge…really, it was rather odd. It was more like a road across the water…with a little bump, or hump of a bridge formation that they made as the “bridge” part. Nyack College has a GREAT AND EXCELLENT PROGRAM…for ADULTS who want to complete their education. I had 69 credits. They accepted my credits and then placed me in their program for ADULT AND CONTINUING EDUCATION/DISTANCE EDUCATION. The college professors drive all the way from their residence in Weshchester, and come to Queens or Longlsland to teach and great topic. ORGANIZATIONAL MANAGMENT. I give more detail in another blog later…but the course includes a thesis of about 100 pages or more, business ethics, and detailed writing and reports that is completed in 14 months! The College also has a program for Masters Degree as well. I write give more detail later..But go online to www.nyack.org if you want to know more! I loved every bit of the 2x a week course work! Great professors and Great classroom experience as well!
I got lost trying to come back from Nyack. I ended up in Woodbury Commons. Woodbury Commons looked very nice indeed. I could not stay….I had to cash, so no shopping for me. I met a nice lady at the information booth who gave me the directions back home.
Please don’t ask why I could not figure my way out….I never said I was that intelligent. I left home at around 1:30 yesterday and did not walk back into my house until 10:00. Traffic was terrible due to the rain, and storms. But I am home. Thank the Lord! I think my son Jay Jewelz enjoyed the ride…even though we kept arguing about whose fault it was that we got lost…but we talked and laughed our way through it!
As soon as we got home we had pizza with my Mom and just thanked the Good Lord that we made it home safely in all that rain.!
See ya there!

It really is quite simple. Oprah has come to the top…sort of like Martin Luther King….She has been to the mountain top…and she has seen things most of us only dream about. So what do we hold on to? We hold on to our faith. We will fight for our faith. Some people die for their faith. What happened to Oprah you ask??? HAS OPRAH BACK SLID???
Oprah has been through a lot of negative experiences in life. Her past sexual abuse experiences have helped to shape her views of the world.
I believe that her heart is in the right place. However, strick Christians would not agree. However, is Oprah obligated to “preach” the gospel that she does not completely agree with? Does Oprah call her self BORN -AGAIN? I do not believe that I have ever heard Oprah refer to herself as being, “SAVED” have you???
So why do we as minority folk, African Americans…believe that Oprah is leading people astray? You have to be a Pastor, or atleast claim yourself to be a Evangelist atleast…inorder to lead people.
Oprah Winfrey is a television talk show host. She just happens to be African American, she just happens to have come from a “Christian Background..” But the last time I checked…most African American Denominations that are Baptist, or other wise…believe that a SINNER must confess his sins to the Lord Jesus in order to be saved. You should not term yourself a Baptist…if you have not confessed your sins and accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior.
Has Oprah ever discussed that on Television? I do not believe I heard a show about her “confession of her sins and receiving the “SHED BLOOD OF JESUS” upon her life and soul for the REDEMPTION OF SINS…HAVE YOU?
So before you can call Oprah a LEADER IN THE CHURCH…you must examin her life as what we are so LOOSELY terming CHRISTIAN LIFESTYLE….
What makes a person a spokes person of Christain Ethics….what makes a person a spokes person in the Christian Church….There are many who would argue that Gay people cannot be considered Christian. So let us not banter the term of Christian around so quickly….
I believe that you cannot call Oprah anything until you have examined who she really believes her life to be patterned after.
Since Oprah does not have a congregation of followers…per se’ than let us assume that she is no different than the people that we have conversations with around the “water cooler” or “water bottle” at work.
Everyone is entitled to his or her own opinion.
Can you ram your religion down someones throat????
You must LOVE PEOPLE INTO THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN….YOU CAN NOT CHASE THEM DOWN THE STREET AND SCREAM AT THEM.
Look at the Old Testament….the Prophets were always the first to get killed? Why? Because they told people things that they did not LIKE OR WANT TO HEAR!!!!
Some prophets were stoned to death.
Lets say Oprah started telling people to stop wearing body tatooes. How well would that go over?
How long would Oprahs talk show last if she told people that they BETTER STOP HAVING SEX BEFORE MARRIAGE…OR SEX OUT OF MARRIAGE, OR CHILDREN WITHOUT BEING MARRIED?
Oprah is trying to make a dollar…which is a freedom that we enjoy in this country!
Do you think she is trying to offend her audience and then loose her ratings and her beautiful homes etc., etc.,
Of course she is not going to say that.—So Oprah Winfrey is a DIPLOMAT….OPrah is a diplomat.
She will not change her views or discuss her personal relationship with God on major television networks…therefore she will only say things that will not offend …but bring people together. Especially people who would not believe in God or even try to change their life style at all.
So in essence…CAN YOU CATCH MORE FLIES WITH HONEY…THAN WITH VINEGAR????
Of course you can!
So, am I stating that Oprah is trying to EVEN CATCH ANYBODY AT ALL?
no, i DO NOT BELIEVE SHE IS ATTEMPTING TO CHANGE THE WORLD THROUGH RELIGIOUS THOUGHTS…but she is trying to bridge the gap between good and evil deeds, and helping the global commmunity.
I think she has a right to her PRIVATE THOUGHTS on this issue. Does she have to confess her SALVATION in front of an entire nation?
Has every Christian reading this blog…OPENLY CONFESSED YOUR SALVATION TO YOUR PLACE OF BUSINESS OR WORK LATELY? HOW MUCH DISCUSSION ARE YOU ALLOWED TO ENGAGE IN BEFORE SOMEONE FILES A COMPLAINT TO EEO ABOUT INAPPROPRIATE RELIGIOUS TALK AT THE WORK PLACE?
I believe that we can look up to Oprah as a role model for young African American girls and boys to follow down the road to success through hard work. However, I would not try to fit Oprah into the role of the CHURCH EVANGELIST at this time.
What do you think????

UNIVERSE AND WEAVE IN HARMONY
is strange indeed..This JUST IN—AS REPORTED IN NEW YORK CITY…BY 1010WINS RADIO………:
BERNIE MACK HAS PASSED AWAY. I ENJOYED HIS television show, the Bernie Mack show. He interacted with his “wife, and adopted kids in a very natural way. He always brougth a chuckle and a smile to my tired work worn spirit at the end of the evening.
He had pnuenomia. It will be great loss to black comedians and all comedians. As they say in the hood….WE JUST LOST ANOTHER OLE’ G! (TRANSLATION–OLD GANGSTER) SUPPOSEDLY A ENDEARING TERM.
HE also played in THE OCEANS ELEVEN, TWELVE, AND THIRTEEN MOVIES. BERNIE ALSO DID A PERIOD PIECE REGARDING BLACKS IN SWIMMING COMMPETTION. Bernie Mack had a interesting way of pulling the audience into his world. I liked him and I know the world of intertainment has suffered a great loss. —You will be missed Bernie, you will be missed.
Next, I went to the movies the other night with my son. We also took his friend Michael. My son is fifteen…but he does not mind “Mommy” taking him to the movies sometimes. At times he and his friend Michael, contact their “girl” friends and guy friends from their previous school Grace Lutheran of Queens Village, and they go to the movies.
But the other night it was our turn to go to see THE MUMMY! It started out being a bit corny with the typical English husband and wife characters. Then the interesting part….the Chinese Mummy played by Jet Li!. It was rather interesting. I had really planed on going to sleep during the movie.
But it actually kept my interest. I liked the Yeti! They were cute, appealing….and enjoyable to watch. Great Computer work! I loved the use of the TERRACOTA ARMY! The ending of the movie was not as good as I expected. It ended with everybody dancing. BORING! I mean, like look… This young woman who had been immortal and had guarded the Mummy, now is dancing?! Okay…what happens next?
Let’s move forward. PAWLING NEW YORK. Have you been there? It is beautiful! The Gordon Kent New England Tennis Camp is there. My son received a scholarship from the USTA (United States Tennis Association–Eastern Division) — My son Jay Jewelz ( psudeo name of course) was there for 13 days. He came home a much darker kid, relaxed, happy, and begging for more next year!
He had won a mug for his efforts with name of the camp on it. He received a t-shirt, a tennis baseball cap, thermos with the logo of the camp on it, and even a video of hisskill ability and training that he received. They even had him dance a little on the video so you can see his happiness at being in that location. My son wished he could stay a few more weeks.
That is the best option….better than the fresh air fund. The tennis camp has goals, and ideals. I was never comfortable with sending my son to the FRESH AIR FUND…. only because my child would be living and breathing the air of another family that I do not know. But the Tennis camp was on the grounds of the TRINTY SCHOOL IN PAWLING NEW YORK.
My son and all the other over night campers stayed in dorms. They took the kids to a movie (Batman), the mall, they had parties for them, and most of all…..played…tennis, TENNIS, TENNIS, TENNIS!!! 5 HOURS PER DAY!!!! He received personalized instruction also. My son told me he took two showers per day, had great food. Jay Jewelz told me that the chocolate milk was great tasting.
They woke up daily to the rolling hills and valleys of Pawling New York! America the Beautiful! I enjoyed the ride up there. 65 miles out of New York City! I even enjoyed the ride to get there. My son really loved it. He met tennis players in their teens who were for Europe. Some spoke French!
What a great experience!!! I am so thankful for the opportunity that my son experienced. I will pay for the camp next year….Thanks USTA!—AND PARENTS….LOOK FOR FREE PROGRAMS IN YOUR NEIGBORHOOD FOR TENNIS! IT IS WELL WORTH IT. LOOK UP NYJTL.ORG—-THERE ARE MANY PROGRAMS OUT THERE. (New York Junior Tennis League)
SEEK THEM OUT! YOU AND YOUR CHILDREN WILL BE HAPPY!!!
OBAMA WATCH….This is not news…but a discussion I had the other day while at work. I was talking to a carpenter. This man and I met and agreed on certain topics about life in our current world. However, when he and I discussed Barak Obama…..this man actually stated that he believed that Obama was Muslim.
He was very concerned about this belief. He said that is had nothing to do with race…but that he believed that OBAMA was muslim and that was a cause of concern for him. I tried to explain that Obama was raised by his white grand parents in the United States.
This man did not care…he believed that he was musilim and did not have America’s best interest at heart. I stopped trying to convience this gentleman that his views might be wrong….I let it go. Instead we talked about road rage, dog eat dog…rat race, family, maritial issues, kids, etc.
But I just could not get over his belief that OBAMA is a closet Muslim. This man showed real fear! WOW! Should I really be surprised?
Personally, I have my questions about Obama but, the name he was named by his white mother, his mother was an anthropologist, who traveled the world, his mother did not changer her religion, he was raised in the United States most of his life…because he longed for stability….I wonder, I wonder….”DO PEOPLE JUST WANT TO BELIEVE THE NEGATIVE OR WHAT?”
John Edwards and cheating on his wife? What else is new? I have not seen any politician who has not admitted to having cheating yet! The worse of course is that Mr. Edwards cheated while his wife was ill.
However, my voice teacher who was married to a pscyhologist….her husband cheated also while she was undergoing treatment for breast cancer.
It is unfortunate…but the human EGO…AND SEX drive do seem to have more control over all of us…than we would want. I hope they can recover from this.
MEDICAL MINUTE: I have to tell you I had a MAMMOGRAM THIS WEEK! I was more scared not to go…than to go.
When I heard that Christina Applegate had been coping with illness of breast cancer, and that my doctor had been after me to get it done….I finally gave in. My selfesteem went up.
I felt relieved. But I am still waiting for the test results. I told several ladies at work. Did you know that one woman asked for the information of where I went to get it done?!
Wow! I did not realize that my actions could affect someone else! So that is why I am telling you. LADIES…TAKE CARE OF YOUR BODIES! GO GET YOUR MAMMOGRAMS DONE….It is not painful….it is uncomfortable…but I did not feel any pain.
The technician was pleasant and nice to talk to. The woman was so professional I did not feel embaressed. (((I do not like being disrobed—for any reason except the swimming pool)))—So please go….your life, my life depends upon it!
What is going on in Russia? Stay tuned to your radio!!!—Cable tv etc.
Oh…did you notice the GAS PRICES? I actually paid 4.13 at the pump. Great….keep going down, down, down!
