Buckwheat was the coolest Lil Rascal

When I first started this blog, I promised myself it would be about just random stuff and not all one-sided. What better way to express myself and not have to get any flak about my views, I can read your comments and leave it at that. Whether they are good or bad comments, im just geeking off the fact that someone is reading my stuff. OK now that we have that all cleared up, it seems like I could dedicate my whole blog to stupid thing people say and do. Im being politically correct by saying people. Im actually getting tired of certain people thinking they can just say anything and its cool. The dude Dog thought he was black because he grew up rough in a bad neighborhood? WTF. This chick Carla Dartez apparently didnt see anything wrong with calling a black lady Buckwheat? Even from one black person to another this is considered a diss. I was in Elementary school several,several,several years ago and that was one of the first cracks I received from this kid named Mark Turner on a cold rainy Wednesday right after lunch on our way to Social Studies and he was blacker than me!

Are Dog and Carla apologizing because they see the error of their ways or because they got caught? The only reason Mark Turner apologized was because Ms. Slade overheard him.

G-Burgs most wanted



Ive been getting so much feedback on the talking "white" blog that it opened up another can of worms. Not only do I apperantly talk "white" but since I grew up in the "burbs" I dont have the authority to speak on the state of Hip Hop or the plight of the blackman or wear Timboes or even bump my music at loud decibels....all of which I do on a regular.

I used to get sucked in that trap of trying to justify my blackness, but I guess being older and wiser now I realize that my life was so good growing up because ma-dukes wasnt havin it. I grew up in the burbs because mom made sure I grew up in the burbs.

Black or White?



www.cnn.com/2007/US/11/06/missing.woman/index.html?iref=mpstoryview


OK - I hate when people pull the race card and some of my best friends are white so that means Im not racist!(right?) When I was reading this article I couldnt help but think this guy is guilty as hell. This is coming from scootermonk who honestly believes that OJ is innocent. I wanted to see what this guy looked like partly because Im nosey and partly because I wanted to see what color he is. Imagine my surprise when I couldnt find one single picture? HMMMMM? What color do we think he is?

I would love to say I told you so but everyone already knew this outcome. right?

No I dont have my law degree and the only bar I passed is the one on Fairmont Ave. (because they have crazy hours) but this dude is oh so guilty.

http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/law/11/13/missing.wife.ap/index.html

My mother always told me to tell the truth, but my boys always told me to deny till you die if questioned...always stick to your story!

My degree from Special Victims Units University tells me this dude is innocent

Im so Hood!!





Quick Friday afternoon blog....

I got accused of talking "White" by one of my boys last night. At first I brushed him off like "whatever dude", then I asked him what exactly is "talking white?" Does he mean because I speak correctly? Does he mean because I know how to put my words together or because I dont use the word "be" every chance I get? I remember how my mother, father, aunt, uncle, grandmother and grandfather use to correct me all the time. I can talk slang with the best of them but even then I speak it correctly. My boy said he speaks correctly at work but on the weekends and when he's hanging with the "fellas" he can relax and speak however he feels? Call me crazy but when your home on the weekend (with the kids) isnt this is the time you should really be on your correct speaking game.

OK - so ima bout to hit up the brew spot then bounce to the cribo. Ill holla atchoo cats latah. peace Dawgs!

J.M.J - E.P.M.D and Jigga Man





I had a couple things to talk about today and they all happened to be Hip-Hop related,I decided to combined them, so just work with me. Today is the anniversary of JMJ's death. Run DMC is one of my all time favorite groups. NUFF Said!

EPMD is my all time favorite duo. Yes, better than Pete Rock and CL Smooth, yes better than OutKast and YES better that Kid N Play! YEP I said it, Kid N Play.

Jigga Man is coming to Baltimore and all the tickets were gone before they even got here. I thought I had some pull in this town ,but even my ace in the hole hit me with the Flava-Flav..."I cant do nuffin for you man"

Till they do right by those INDIANS!!



The Washington Redskins got crushed by the Pats last night. It was terrible and being a diehard Skins fan, I turned the cell phone off around half-time.

My homie Mark swears that "til they do right by dem Indians everything they touch gone fail." Maybe he's right, I never really thought about the name because it dosent really affect me personally. Is it racist or am I turning into Jesse Sharpton? How would I feel if a team was called the Nantucket Negroes?

Katrina VS San Diego Wildfires




"See what had happened was" Katrina hit unexpectedly, but we learned from our mistakes so when it happened in Cali we were prepared. Some of you might think this is a black or white thing or an affluent vs lower class thing but you dead wrong. Right Abdul?

Lucky Dube - Back To My Roots (Live)



I got a call from the wifey this morning about Lucky Dube's death. I went on-line and realized that he was way more than just a reggae artist. He was the African Ambassador. A pioneer whose unique sound and righteousness won fans worldwide. Similar to one of my favorites, the late great, Peter Tosh, he was a victim of senseless violence that takes the lives of my brothers on a daily basis. This true DREAD will be missed. "LUCKY today, LUCKY tomorrow, LUCKY FOREVER!" JAH BLESS, his widow, children and fans. In a sign of solidarity and sadness, all are encouraged to light a candle and participate in a moment of silence on Wednesday, October 24th, in remembrance of Lucky Dube, (1964 - 2007). My boy Abdul dedicated his on-line radio show to Lucky, check it out.

Less work on the DNA double helix and more work on the common sense gene. This guy might as well have said black people are "nappy headed ho's" oh wait somebody else already said that one, or maybe,look at black peoples hips and thighs,they are bread differently, oops that one was used also. Who's more intelligent now Dr. James Watson?

Say It Aint SOOOOO!!


I think I knew deep down inside that Marion Jones was guilty, but she is in my top 5. I held out as much hope as possible, even when her husband tested positive, I was like thats on him. Even when Victor Contee (Balco Labs) was like she definatly used "The Clear", I was like Hes lying. Even when she tested positive but somehow beat the case, I was like "told you so".

Is it me or are our black athletes going through it right now, I dont even have enough energy to start naming names. Come on Barry,dont let me down.

The Juice is Loose

If that's OJ's S&%T, they must acquit!!
I still like the Juice and I still think he is innocent. If some shady dudes had my stuff, I would want it back also. I would probably have gone about it a tad bit differently but hey, I'm just Scootermonk. After much debate, we have officially welcomed OJ into our illustrious club. Its not as easy as one might suspect (no pun intended) to become a card carrying member of the grown men with childhood nicknames club. Welcome Orenthal James!

Black Man BEWARE!!!

UHHH OHHH - Baltimore might finally be on to something here. Just think about it, who knows a blackman better than a blackwoman? Lets face it, the blackman is driving black on black crime through the roof, the blackman is driving the murder rate out of control, the blackman isnt putting said "foot" in blackboys said "behind" when they mess up in school. If Mayor Dixon is anything like my mother or the mothers of most of my friends then B-More will be in shape in no-time. It has been my experience that the people who know how to push the buttons that get me back on point the most are my mother, my mother and my mother.

Who better than this crew to whip this African American city into shape. They can be compassionate as well as no nonsence. As far as all the Nelly Naysayers out there...Blackwomen have been dealing with you for generations.

Jena Six

RALLY THE TROOPS ON JENA!!!

Hold on, this was a school fight right? I mean how many school fights have I been in? How many have you been in? How many times have you run outside after school to see a fight? How mad would I be if there was a noose hanging from a tree at Gaithersburg High? If there was one hanging, I guarantee that after the Friday night football game ,in the McDonalds parking lot, it would have been on like popcorn!

So everytime someone tells me they dont believe in Affirmative Action and black folks are always crying about being treated unfairly and slavery was over 400 years ago and we need to get over it and stop asking for hand-outs, I will refer them to the Jena Six, I will refer them to Amadu Diallo, I will refer them to Abna Luima, I will refer them to any Katrina victim,I will refer them to any blackman over the age of 60, then I will refer them to the McDonalds Parking lot on a Friday night!
