National Brotherhood of Skiers

And you thought (''we'' people of color) didn't ski (okay I didn't either :-)) I was first turned on to the brotherhood of skiers back in the mid-nineties when I was living down in Miami by a friend of mine she told me of it and to be quite frankly I didn't believe it but now living here in Colorado Springs it's a great opportunity to get out and network thank you Ella

Appreciation For Life

For me having a great appreciation for life is acknowledging death we all know let me rephrase that some people know tomorrow is not a given each day , I awake and taking in my surroundings I am grateful that I have this day given to me yes , there are challenges to go with each day also also pain and heartbreak but I have found out that any good life worth living without those challenges would be very dull personallyI draw from all of the experiences that I have had and look forward to more experiences hopefully good but sometimes you can't have the good without the bed so acknowledging death does not make me sick it is been my experience that individuals that write suicide letters our crying out for help I am far from crying out for help I have a thirst for life and as a friend once told me "you have to have the courage to live before you can be at peace with death"

R.I.P ,,,,,,,,, Tucker

We are gathered here today to send off our friend Tucker to his heavily mother and father he will now join he was a man with the optimistic attitude despite his handicap concealing most of his pain ,behind a smile never letting anyone in to see the actual pain of many broken hearts he tried as best he could to live his life to the fullest but after trusting one too many times he lost his will to live he always wanted to die with a roomful of children and the grandchildren around his bedside but things did not turn out that way he died the most horrible death you could possibly imagine he died alone no one should ever have to die like this he leaves behind caring friends and family who never really get to know him at all

Hair Hat

Darain Housen shows off his 'Hairy Hat'

DARAIN HOUSEN HAS not taken off his hat for the last 20 years. He bathes, he sleeps and does everything possible in it. It is a perfect fit. But unlike other hats, his is not made of cloth but from the very hair on his head which is why it cannot be removed. Housen has been sporting his 'Natural Hat' hairstyle for the last 20 years. The 40-year-old Barber who lives in Somerset, St. Thomas, said he came up with the idea after some of his friends decided to wear hats to a party but he could not find one to wear. Housen said the morning after the party he clipped the rough edges and then for six months he kept growing the 'peak' but since then he has not made major changes to his 'Hat'.

FLIRT WITH DANGER
The 'hat' has shocked and awed everyone including Policemen, Tourists and Judges. Housen said that he was once stopped by a Policeman while coming from a dance early one morning who insisted that he removed it. On another occasion Housen said he was ordered by a Judge to take off his 'hat' while on jury duty.
Housen said people from all over the Island have taken photos with him but while he has become quite an attraction he has never charged a fee to touch his hair or have a photo of it taken. There is no doubt about Housen's fame as when THE STAR was searching for him in order to do the interview the team only had to mention 'the man with the hair hat' and we were pointed to where we could find him.

Oakland Raiders

The most feared the most hated the craziest fans . these all words used to describe when you're talking about the Oakland Raiders and their fans . especially their fans . I have lived the few places in my life , and seen rivalries with football teams but I have seen nothing like the rivalry between the Denver Broncos (annoying fans) and the Oakland Raiders (scary fans) . the Oakland Raiders fans are amongst the most dedicated and scary that I have ever seen I have a friend named Ron , who is a diehard Oakland Raiders fan . I mean , the whole 9 yards , begins his sentences with "we" you know the type wears a Raiders hat every day simply a diehard fan . last Sunday , when the Broncos spanked the Raiders . a friend of mine called him just to give him a little ribbing and you would have thought she was calling someone who just lost their best friend in a horrible car accident I guess I will never be able to understand what it is to be a true fan . I've moved so many places that I'd just like to see a good football game between two teams doesn't matter who when I was living in DC . I try to get on the bandwagon of the Redskins and must admit being a fan of the Redskins back in the nineties was pretty gratifying for African-American seen Doug Williams . the first African-American quarterback to go to the Super Bowl was really nice and I'm glad I was there in that area . when it happened , seeing them come home watching the parades on television , because of my memory serves me correctly . it was raining cats and dogs . when they came home , and also very cold . but then moving to Miami football was more of a place to go to relax . I saw my first live game their my cousin was playing for the Dolphins at the time . so when someone says hey , you want a ticket . free ticket at that to go sit in a stadium with 78° weather eat really good foods it's really hard to say no . so I have admiration for the true fan's anyone willing to pay the crazy prices of tickets to a sporting event these days , and go stand in a line in the cold and back their team . my hat is off to you GO!! Whenever team , you support , because it takes a lot to be a fan these days

Garden of the Gods History

A lovely place to visit , strangely enough . when you go there , you can hear everything for miles and miles it's so quiet . it is beautiful in the fall , and also makes a nice place for a romantic dinner at sunset . but don't try to stay any longer after sunset . you will freeze your booty off

Clean Joke

It is hard to find a good clean joke these days without a dirty word or two in it, but here is one: Two tall trees, a birch and a beech, are growing in the woods. A small tree begins to grow between them, and the beech says to the birch, "Is that a son of a beech or a son of a birch?" The birch says he cannot tell. Just then a woodpecker lands on the sapling. The birch says, "Woodpecker, you are a tree expert. Can you tell if that is a son of a beech or a son of a birch?" The woodpecker takes a taste of the small tree He replies, "It is neither a son of a beech nor a son of a birch. It is, however, the best piece of ash I have ever put my pecker in." Wipe that smile off your face!

Bill Cosby: Himself (1983)

Bill Cosby: Himself (1983)

Not all of my comedic taste are raunchy , I respect and medians who choose to work without profanity , and I still find it funny . very funny comedians like David Atkins , a.k.a. Sinbad and Bill Cosby . I really do enjoy . I remember Sunday mornings , waking up to rush down stairs to watch fat Albert and the gang . my mother especially liked Bill Cosby , slightly ironic because my mother had a mouth like a sailor and could insult you 17 different ways with a smile on her face . but she would sit down and watch this particular comedy tape and laugh and laugh and I must admit . it was family entertainment , we could invite people over to watch this . it was a very true to life view on family life , with no profanity . I appreciate that

Redd Foxx

Another blue comedian I was very sad to see how his life finally unfolded because he was as a great comedian . my earliest memories of red fox were of sneaking down stairs . just out of my parents view and listening to dirty words back then , I didn't really know how funny , he was . they were just cuss words , but as I got older . I'll learn to appreciate his humor its funny how age and maturity makes you want to look back on things that your parents did and want to embrace what they found entertaining . I can remember my father , cracking out laughing at red fox is humor Daddy . I completely understand now , this man was funny as hell , and I'm sure you and Mr. Fox are having a good time in heaven telling dirty jokes and laughing your asses off

another one of my favorite comedians , just like everyone else I was disappointed when he stopped doing his show on Comedy Central . I hope he has a change of heart and decides to come back to doing television or even HBO something like that , where he can be uncensored , but I'm glad he is doing well and continuing with his standup tour

The Power Of Money

Joke of the day "are you the Doctor"

A father walks into a book store with his young son. The boy is holding a quarter. Suddenly, the boy starts choking, going blue in the face. The father realizes the boy has swallowed the quarter and starts panicking, shouting for help. A well dressed, attractive and serious looking woman, in a blue business suit is sitting at a coffee bar reading a newspaper and sipping a cup of coffee. At the sound of the commotion, she looks up, puts her coffee cup down, neatly folds the newspaper and places it on the counter, gets up from her seat and makes her way, unhurried, across the book store. Reaching the boy, the woman carefully drops his pants; takes hold of the boy's testicles and starts to squeeze and twist, gently at first and then ever so firmly. After a few seconds the boy convulses violently and coughs up the quarter, which the woman deftly catches in her free hand. Releasing the boy's testicles, the woman hands the coin to the father and walks back to her seat in he coffee bar without saying a word. As soon as he is sure that his son has suffered no ill effects, the father rushes over to the woman and starts thanking her saying, "I've never seen anybody do anything like that before, it was fantastic. Are you a doctor?" "No," the woman replied. "DIVORCE ATTORNEY".

Batman Begins

Batman Begins

I saw this movie last night , and in my opinion , it was really good . my friend likes the campy version better you know , with the over exaggerated throwing punches with a large colorful text . but this one was more believable , if there had to be a person like Batman this movie lets you see how he could conceivably exist with all of his gadgets (supplied by Morgan Freeman) . for me and answered questions like , how did the bat Cave get under Bruce Wayne's house? Where did he get his money from? How he is he able to fight all those people , and never get hurt? I won't spoil the ending , but I hope there are sequels to this

The Official Site of the Colorado Avalanche

The Official Site of the Colorado Avalanche

In my endeavor to take in new things and new experiences . I'm going to try to make a serious effort this year to try to appreciate Colorado avalanche hockey if you listen to all the jokes and stereotypes . this is something my people (African-American) normally do not participate in but I was pleasantly surprised to found out . there is an African-American goalie that plays for the NHL . my problem sometimes is the puck is moving so fast I never know where it is on the ice I remember many years ago , when the ratings were sagging and the NHL was trying to get more viewers you could watch a hockey game from home , and they digitally highlighted the puck with a blue streaking affect . who knows maybe at the end of the year . I will be avalanche Fan and a Denver Broncos fan . let me rephrase that some Denver Bronco have a tendency to get on my nerves with the proverbial" we" that is a major pet peeve of mine second to speaking in the third person and also the dedication of some of these individuals is mind-boggling call me spoiled but I could never enjoy sitting in a open stadium with the temperature at 38° and dropping and enjoy a football game . Miami football is so much more relaxing at 75° in a pair of shorts watching a football game . life can't get any better :-)

Joke Of The Day (Wal-Mart)

Only at WalMart One day, in line at the company cafeteria, Joe says to Mike behind him," My elbow hurts like hell. I guess I better see a doctor." "Listen, you don't have to spend that kind of money," Mike replies. "There's a diagnostic computer down at WalMart. Just give it a urine sample and the computer will tell you what's wrong and what to do about it. It takes ten seconds and costs ten dollars....... a lot cheaper than a doctor. So Joe deposits a urine sample in a small jar and takes it to WalMart. He deposits ten dollars and the computer lights up and asks for the urine sample. He pours the sample into the slot and waits. Ten seconds later, the computer ejects a printout: You have tennis elbow. Soak your arm in warm water and Epson's Salt. (Aisle 8) And avoid heavy activity. It will improve in two weeks. Thank you for shopping at Wal-Mart. That evening, while thinking how amazing this new technology was, Joe begins wondering if the computer can be fooled. He mixes some tap water, a stool sample from his dog, urine samples from his wife and daughter, and a sperm sample for good measure.Joe hurries back to Wal-Mart, eager to check the results. He deposits ten dollars, pours in his concoction, and awaits the results. The computer prints the following: 1. Your tap water is too hard. Get a water softener. (Aisle 9) 2. Your dog has ringworm. Bathe him with anti-fungal shampoo. (Aisle 7) 3. Your daughter has a cocaine habit. Get her into rehab. 4. Your wife is pregnant. Twins. They aren't yours. Get a lawyer. 5. If you don't stop playing with yourself, your elbow will never get better. Thank you for shopping at WalMart
