A Warped POV by A. Dacosta Brathway

December 31st, Saturday... OK. It is only fitting for me to be watching the HISTORY channel, with a program talking about marijuana and how it is distributed throughout America. So, 9 to 1 Blacks & Hispanics to Whites are arrested for marijuana possession. I was not surprised to hear that. But, when I looked up to see a dude delivering marijuana to a cat who called him to bring it by like he was bringing the dude his dry cleaning... OK, hurry up 2011... Get out of the way so that I can make my attitude adjustment for 2012. I'm doing a whole different thing next year!
I ONLY resolution is that I am not doing it like I did previously. I'm flipping my personality! I may become a marvel to modern medical science! I plan to act "chilled" like someone who is on marijuana without smoking marijuana! I understand "double standard" America. I get racism. I know bigots still exist. Yes, I suffer from race, age and general discrimination. I know I'm not liked by everyone. My walk with Jesus Christ is croaked. I'm set in my ways and I don't really give a fuck about much anymore. Those are the qualities of someone who smokes marijuana minus the munchies! So, that's my plan and I sticking to it!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

A Warped POV by A. Dacosta Brathway

December 30th, Friday... It's that time again! Time to make those New Year's resolutions that you know you're not going to keep! So, what will it be this new year? Gonna lose weight? Gonna stop smoking? I know, you're gonna eat healthier foods!
Maybe you'll stop beating your wife! What about child support? How about stopping referring yourself to being a "gangsta?" Are you gonna put on a belt this new year? How about not becoming a "baby daddy" for the fifth time? Will you eliminate larceny in your heart? Will you stop kidding yourself? How about coming out of that "denial" you've been in for awhile? Would you become more honest with yourself? Will you fall in love this time or not fall in love because you don't want to fall into something you cannot fall out of?
I guess what I am asking is, will you be able to stop all the bullshit in 2012?

A Warped POV by A. Dacosta Brathway

November 25th,(Black) Friday... (Why is it called "Black Friday?") Okay, this is the time of year when I see contradictions in Society. Like it's Thanksgiving and people are supposed to be humbled but some seem to be very stressed out and just plain nasty. Crowds of people go shopping for gifts and mob scenes break out at stores with people fighting over material things! And... and, celebrities find it in their hearts to go to missions to serve the poor when the majority of their time, during the year, is to act like "assholes!" (Can you say "photo op?")
Why do I have such a hard time watching this BS transpire year after year? I think if I were in the position where I had to accept a handout, I would have to muster up some integrity from somewhere and not accept a plate from some bogus ass celebrity. (I would probably have the hook up in place where I would be out by where the trash bins are and have my boy slip me a plate through the side door or something...)
That being said, I am not feeling this time of year! I just want it to go away quickly...But, maybe I should not be in such a hurry for it to end. After all, 2012 is the year when the world is supposed to come to an end! Maybe all the photo celebrities will just disappear?
