Our "Bread n Butter" as people is sex. It's all over the music we listen to, the movies we watch, the ads we see on tv, and hopefully all over our bedrooms too...
The truth however is that many things are better and more pleasurable than sex. One in particular, and quite simple, is a good home cooked meal: Steak and Potatoes. Simple and Satisfying.
I've got ten whole reasons why that meal is better than sex, and I bet you'll agree with at least 7.
1) You can have Steak and Potatoes BY YOURSELF. Need I say more?
2) You can ALWAYS make enough to have leftovers the next day...I love mashed potatoes for lunch, honestly.
3) If you have sex for 30 minutes you'll be tired. If you eat a warm T-Bone and some French Fries, you'll be energized.
4) Honestly, as a guy there's no comparison. Sex will cost you more money, Period.
5) Good sex is way harder to find than good steak.
6) When you're finished, you'll never have to worry about whether a steak was faking it, or if it'll call you the next day. No psychological stress.
7) You can be absolutely certain as to whether or not you've shared it with anyone...unless you have a sneaky dog. But who's dog hasn't humped their girl anyway?
8) You have so many ways you can make it, and its ALWAYS on your terms. Your satisfaction is only dependent on your own skill.
9) If you don't like it, stop eating. Nobody will look at you crazy.
10) This one is the most important: Steak and Potatoes together will NEVER give you herpes.
I hope I've saved some of you a tough decision. Go with the beef.

5 Steps to Being A Grown Ass Man
I've been witnessing lately that many guys simply don't understand what their place is in society. I know very well that there are women that do the same thing, but for the women I do not speak from a place of experience.
Fellas. There are some important things that need to be considered if you're going to call yourself an adult.
Some unqualified guys love to call themselves a "grown men" and I decided to help alleviate that by providing a short list of grown ass man prerequisites.
Step 1: Do your own laundry
- if you have to take your laundry to your mommas house or have your girl do your laundry. You can't even be clean without someone's help. That's not grown n sexy.
Step 2: Get a Job
- we all know the economy is hard and it might take a while to accomplish this step, but if you have no source of income and no savings guess what, you are DEFINITELY not a grown ass man.
Step 3: Master One Meal
- if everything you eat is prepared in a microwave or at a fast food restaurant you have a major issue to be taken care of ASAP. Not everyone can be talented in the kitchen but learn how to make at least one thing.
Step 4: Have Your Priorities In Order
- if you have bills to pay...child support, electricity, rent, water, phone, etc. and you spend your paycheck on buying the cool grey Jordan XIs...you still have childlike responsibilities on the brain. Join the rest of us in adulthood.
Step 5: Move OUT Of Your Momma's House
- this goes without saying...living with your parents is the epitome of "swag less" behavior that hopefully your boys clown you for on a regular basis. Reason being, if you have the nerve to call yourself a grown man and your mother still provides your shelter, you may as well have a curfew. And you better be inside when the street lights come on.
People please, don't let a real life loser tell you he is a grown man. Ladies, help your boyfriends, brothers, friends out and let them know what they should do to qualify. And fellas, if your boy is confused be sure to slap some sense into him.

A Ring Is a Promise to Come Back...
We've all seen the changed relationship status on Facebook which usually is much more than a joke, but what about real...true to life open relationships?
For some, a wedding ring actually is a commitment to be honest, to love and to cherish through sickness and in health, and even after a few sexpeditions with neighbors and friends. Many feel that monogamy is the only way to live, and the only reasonable way to have a relationship...these few people however, the proponents of sexual forgiveness in a relationship would beg to differ.
Understandably so in my humble opinion, because as it appears, the only thing that keeps us from "cheating" in most cases is the effect it may have on our significant other. The significant other in most cases has had similar thoughts which leads me to believe that the truth behind monogamy is that it is entirely society created (my best guess is to protect lineage as it was such an esteemed thing to protect in earlier ages of civilization)in an effort to separate humans from the rest of the mammals.
Oh we're fancy huh? CHOOSING monogamy as a societal norm?
From some of our earliest ancestors, humans have displayed a need for sex for pleasure. How could we forget this?
What are the benefits of a relationship with one person that are unable to be achieved through an open and more "flexible" relationship as some of our more advanced thinking fellow humans? Are they simply crazy for thinking that they should live happily with one person and taking part in extracurricular activities with another? Wrong for having their cake and eating it too? Or are we, the "normal" people doing it all wrong?
"What's an entree without a little dessert on the side?"

Troy Davis Case. Confusion? Pride? Justice?
The death penalty has been a part of our societies for many years, and has been as of the most recent century a topic of very heated debate.
Some of the earliest Death Penalty laws have been found in the Code of Hammurabi (I know some of y'all were sleeping in 9th grade history class so you're going to just have to google search that one)back in the 18th Century BC. We deal most specifically with modern justification for the death sentence so we have to speak on more relevant cases and for that we turn to the heated debate of guilt and its relation to the convictions.
Before I go any further, there is NO REASON to debate whether or not the man is guilty on a blog or on twitter or facebook because we don't have all the evidence. The biggest issue that has been raised is that there is UNCERTAINTY with the conviction. Question, If there have been recantations and changes of at this point 7 out of 9 of the witnesses' statements:
Should the death penalty be continued??
Let me know, we could use the discussion for sure... and for anyone who wants the case timeline from beginning to end: The Troy Davis Timeline

Were the SATs ever this scary?
Months before taking the SAT, my mother started her "you need to be studying" speeches. I'm sure everyone had the same or a similar experience with parents at some point trying to convince you what you NEED to be doing (mind you, I don't even think my parents took the SAT).
Needless to say, I didn't study for the SAT and did quite fine. The morning of, I can remember being relaxed as ever. Who's scared of a test??
That was 2005, in October (it was kinda chilly that morning, honestly) and it was the first attempt with the "new test" that incorporated the writing section. The damn test wasn't even hard. I know some people study for months and prepare for the SAT but in the end I think relaxing is the most important...
HONESTLY, what would you want to look like when you take a test...
OR...
I'd suggest that the best way to prepare for anything is to just relax and not care about it. Either way
What do you think?

Pardon The Jingle...
Please pardon the jingle when I walk, because I live on change and small bills...
The economy as we all know has been less than impressive over the years. People are surviving on very limited income and some with no income at all. For those of us who are unemployed or simply unhappy with what we are currently doing, check this out.
This is a very interesting read and can possibly be something that one or two people might find valuable. Hopefully a few more.

Entertainment or a NEW CAREER?? READ THIS!.
This is a very interesting read and can possibly be something that one or two people might find valuable. Hopefully a few more.
To Clarify...
The premise of my plan is simple. I want to write about something that is going to grab the attention of a wider audience. Maybe it will be about Financial tips or music, or sports, or relationships or health. I'm looking to embark on a project, do some research and provide entertainment.
The ultimate goal is simple,
My goal is to be able to reach a wider audience and eventually promote people like painters, authors, photographers, musicians, etc...and be able to get people to support their craft.
Help me help others.
