Yeah, I figured as much. I've read through some of the old threads. The subject is a great source of entertainment. I'm jealous of religion to the extent that I wish AfroAmericans would put as much effort into building our infrastructure as they do in their beliefs.

It must be his ghost because the FBI claims that young fella is all bones now. Gators and wild pigs had an early Thanksgiving.

Yeah no....y'all won't be getting any more federal holidays under any circumstances whatsoever. If jesus comes back on a non-federal holiday, folks still gotta go to work or use a sick day or vacation day to hang out with Him.

I admire the scholarship @Chevdoveputs into these threads. I'm a bit surprised @Pioneer1 debates the subject of religion considering he reads/listens to NF Jr.

Yep. I see the ads and figured it was par for the course in maintaining the site. I understand the mixed feelings. But, every little bit helps as long as you don't have to dress like Wanda.

Gotcha. Point taken. No worries.

Pioneer, rest assured that a lazy and stagnant business won't last very long. Most business cards aren't worth the paper on which they're printed. I toss a lot of them into the garbage can. . Whether it's brick and mortar or an online business, there are costs associated with running it. Opening a McDonald's franchise used to require about $100k in start-up money. It's probably closer to a half a million now. Granted, nobody's gonna open a food service business online but instead of looking for a brick and mortar building, some folks will start with a food truck. They can do pretty well showing up in busy work areas around lunch time. Same food. Different delivery model. Again, it goes back to vision and scale. When the business requires moving into a building the owner(s) will know.

Surely, no need for Netflix if that particular TV show ticks all of the boxes.I just provided an alternative if it doesn't.

IMO, maturity and a real desire to work together and procreation agreed upon usually leads to a better outcome. People turn out better when they're created out of some kind of love and raised with it. Those oops babies have a 50/50 chance of getting the love and support needed to become well adjusted and productive members of society. Most dysfunctional people can be traced back to the crash dummies who created them.

Alec Baldwin fatally shoots woman with prop gun. A terrible accident/tragedy that doesn't happen too often. Reads like someone mixed up guns on the set. Safety first.

Netflix is probably the best place to start. Between the search engine and categorization of programming and recommended viewing based on habits, it will provide a list of content matching the criteria.

The late Dr. Frances Cress Welsing said black folks shouldn't procreate until they're at least 30 years old and married. That would definitely solve a few problems and prevent crimes.

Everything is about scale. Not all businesses require a physical location which generally means more overhead and operating costs. However, that doesn't preclude an endowment by way of each and everyone making a charitable contribution to AALBC and spreading the word of its existence. The internet created a paradigm shift in the way businesses set up and operate. It's definitely a win for smaller businesses. Post pandemic, the future will be less buildings and more shared spaces (hoteling) and remote work. Again, AALBC will be a fine institution as long as we the people continue to put our proverbial 2 cents in it. Of course, that has to be adjusted for inflation.

As a s8x partner, I can see where a woman's politics wouldn't matter one iota. No real conversations required. However, if she's a mate, her thoughts could make for some head scratching conversations at the dinner table which might even lead to arguments. No good per NF Jr. A woman who looks nice and is feminine and intelligent with no drama still comes a dime a dozen or at least a nickle a half dozen.

I'm a Corona dude but I could turn up a Steel Reserve 211 for the General. I blame the media for giving it bandwidth especially using the General's passing.

I guess the question becomes what are we drinking and pouring out for Gen Powell since his thread has become a watering hole.

There's a few more like "I Almost Got Away with It" and "Murder in the Thirst". The funniest part to me is how any of these people really think they're going to get away with their crime. Technology has only made it easier for detectives and forensic specialists to do their jobs. The dumb sh8t people do and trail of clues they leave behind usually don't take more than 15 minutes to solve. The 1st 48 is hilarious especially when they get folks in the interrogation room. Eventually, the story doesn't add up, their head drops, true confession and they go out in cuffs.

Cynique, I think you've covered the bases in providing excellent advice to young ladies. if I may tell young fellas overflowing with testosterone how they should interpret this PSA: Hunt thirsty well beyond menopause cougars. Buy a pair of rose colored glasses to make them look vivacious and a tub of K-Y Jelly to make them more pliable. If you're really lucky, she'll love to f8ck and cook and may have a few coins too. Do not spend the night as you may not appreciate how she smells and prepares for bed and/or how she looks in the morning when she awakes. I think we've provided some good advice to both sides of the aisle. Hopefully, they'll heed it and be great.

Lenny White's drum solo is killin'. However, when Lenny put on that outfit, I hope he didn't think or believe he was killin' the game fashion-wise. Then, he's wearing a head condom, er, bonnet. These must be his grand chillun walking around in public wearing PJs, bonnets and Crocs.

Celebrities are super rich. They are not wealthy. The Carters have rapped and sang and danced their way into a huge bag of money. No doubt about it. But, they didn't have to lighten up in order to get it. The beauty of Hip-Hop music is that it was street. Folks didn't have to sell out in order to get paid from it. Jay-Z could be himself and make it based on his gfit for lyrical wordplay. In fact, he still hasn't changed much. I don't see him becoming white. He hasn't gotten a lip reduction either. OTOH, Jay-Z's wife has fallen into the entertainment trap. She too made a fortune prior to this latest round of whitening. But, there are folks in her ear leading her to believe "darling, this makeover will be beautiful". I don't think she's whitening on purpose. Between the rise of Hip-Hop and fall of the King of Pop, I thought black folks would learn and understand that they could be unapologetically black and successful at the same time. It worked from the late 1980s through early 2000s. For the most part, many black entertainers are staying true to themselves. Lizzo hasn't become bulimic or aneroxic and/or whitened herself...yet.

So, this week, I managed to watch an episode of this show. It does contain the typical escapism i.e. blacks folks doing white people sh8t. Sure enough, the alphabet soup community has managed to infuse themselves in it too. Beautiful young black sistas who are being cast...a, b, c, d, e, f, g.... Again, I'm not surprised considering who's behind the show. Sad.

The wonderful thing about the news is that it doesn't have to be fabricated. The stem cell and Botox shot POTUS PJB (Papa Joe Biden) feels some kinda way about folks not getting jabbed: https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-says-police-officers-first-responders-should-be-fired-for-refusing-jab By default, this could happen if enough law enforcement and first responders walk off the job. Now, I'd imagine they would deploy their skillset on the underground/black market i.e. work for the militia groups in their respective communities. But still, it ain't the same as being able to call 911 when the baby stops breathing or grandma falls outta her chair lift and can't get up and Life Alert doesn't work.

Candace Owens is so smart that she's dumb. Same goes for Sen Ted Cruz. Instead of solving problems in their own backyard, those two crash dummies have nerve to speak on Australia. Not a good look at all. Then, they wonder why folk hate Americans. Being arrogant, nosey and stupid aren't endearing human qualities. Candace and Ted both need to take several seats.

Unless they decide to retire from the entertainment business, there's no telling when the bosses are going to let them chill and live off interest and dividends. Excuse me Mrs. Queen Bey, where's that gotd8mn album you owe me to fulfill your contract.

@Mzuri, My humor is never directed at anyone here. But, I see that Pioneer has a funny bone too. Nah bro, I'm not buying the dim bulb one bit. You're tracking for the most part. As long as you don't make that Meek Mill artwork your screensaver. I figure anybody over a half century years old has guzzled down at least one OE 800 back in the day.
