Ok,

Amateur night is set. I am working on some new material now.

I was thinking about the hood jokes, and I think I may get shot for telling them!

But as each day goes by, I do not feel like doing it no mo'.

tamra,

Word, and on the real, they also think single people don;t have no f-ing problems...like we have a tree int he house growing money and shit.

I can not stand begging as family members. I can not stand begging ass people period. GET YOUR OWN SHIT and quit trying to get mines, dammit!

tis2flyyy,

oh I know what you're saying, but if I'm not sitting on top the world, I like to create as few problems as possible. friends and family would come to me for things and assume I was never in need. you know why: because I only had me to take care of, and I was told this directly as they were borrowing.

does money fall out the fucking sky for single people? where the fuck do they think we get our money from and that life is a non-stop party and everything is fucking free, and bills are non-existent or dirt cheap.

it's even harder on your own. so I tried as best as I could to avoid as many problems as possible. I lived the days starving when those same family members weren't around. I lived the days walking when those same family members weren't around. I did w/out many of days. so I understand the story. however, it lost me because before I would have went down to a dealer and brought a brand new car I would have made sure I had the insurance for it since I wouldn't be able to afford the loss if I'm already in a hole. and esp. being black and driving while black, you should have insurance.

now if it was a used car, and I had just enough for the car and food, fuck it, I'd get the insurance ASAP, and doing things for others also w/cars would have to wait. that's just old school keeping it real. or like they say: help somebody trifling out and get fucked every time.

all I'm saying is when you're having hard times, times are made harder from choices. shit happens, but you don't have to make shit happen.

tamra,
You know, I do hear you on that because all three of my cars stay insured and I do not drive all three, I am only one person! Oh make that four cars, as my son's car is on my insurance too!

But to be honest, when I was young-er (as I am still young, shoooot!), I did not have no damn car insurance....sheeeiiiittt, I was lucky if I had enough money for pampers and toilet paper!!! THOSE things used to be considered luxuries.

I am not even trying to floss, I know about being broke and F&)*CKED up, that is why I can write about it. Of course, today, I am making major dollars, my business is doing great (thank GOD), but it was a time when I was scambling, tripping about if the lights and gas was going to get cut off. People leaving Pay or Quits on my door.

I am not tripping on you or nothing, and I guess I am just agitated, but I just HATE it when people be like trying to floss and shit like they are ABOVE the hood and they ain't NEVER had no problems in life and they don't know about hard times. Again, this is not directed at you. I am just making a comment. You know I am not talking about you, cause I KMOW your ass done hard a hard time.

If your ass is black - you know about hard times. I talk about hood shit because the news is full of bougey shit. Don't nobody in the hood give a damn about Cheney 'bout to have a heart attack or if Natalie's will ever be found in Aruba or who killed Jo Benet Ramsey or world affairs or the triclke down theory!

That hood news, is the business....in the hood and the venue of amatuer comedy night is where? In the M-Fing hood.

I go up in there talking all proper, like my education afforded me, and I might get shot!

tis2flyyy,

hey if it's faster to get across the street by walking anyway possible that's me. it's just that i've never been that irresponsible when it comes to car insurance. it's like going to vegas and just throwing hundreds on a table. it's also called bad luck. don't have something happens, do have nothing happens. I'd rather have and 1 less thing to worry about.

when you're on your own and have to take care of yourself, you like to avoid problems, not make more. otherwise you're just digging an avoidable grave.

robfharris,
Bet, you are on!
Thanks for posting your reply.

Tamra,

I just knew you would say that! For some reason, I get the feeling, you do not even JAY walk, do you? Ok, thank you for your honest reply. I am gonna keep that in mind.

A little too hood, huh?

tis2flyyy,
All I have to say is... I really want to smoke with you one day. You get 'different' weed and I want to smoke inhale of it.

tis2flyyy,

oooh this wasn't real. my bad. then it's some funny ghetto stuff, but some people wouldn't understand it.

because I've never taken a car off the dealer's lot w/out insurance, or ever been w/out insurance. it's that Murphy's Law factor.

I guess you use it to make a funny to define "Murphy's Law". *shruggin*

bcddjjsc690,
Naw, just going to use the material in an amateur night comedy routine - out here in LA, where the shit will mean something to somebody. You see, everywhere does not have a ghetto like LA. I mean, they have ghetto's, but not LA ghetto-fied ghetto's, ya know?

Maybe that is why people have NOT posted back. Too freaking 'hood' for them.

Sorry ya'll. I rep's the hood, so sorry I left out something for the liberals and squares. I am a professional, been to college, all of that. But I rep's the hood. Never forget where I came from or at least NEAR where I came from! HAHAHAHAH

UPN/ WB My hopes are big, but not that big! I just want to do a little skit in a comedy routine, that's all.

I am going to tell you something. The only part of the story that is true, is the homey going to the projects to drop them kids off. I made up the rest.

I told you, that choice cush makes the mind do thangs....

Thanks for replying Man. You saved the day for me. I was almost going to give up on the amateur night. It is on Jan 28th. I am gearing up for it.

tis2flyyy,
It was funny ,sad for the homeboy , it might play well in L.A. but the rest of the country is another matter ,unless your looking to go straight to the WB./ UPN ,

Plus are you willing to battle with all the black liberals on the sterotypes? By the time this gets edited by the
networks.You might not recogize it , but the premise is good.It's a good start .
