So what?... so what?... so what?.. got a problem with it?... So What If I am?... This was sent to me therefore, In honor of African American Black History month, I salute the African American/Black woman with this beautiful piece of written literature. The author is unknown, but she's out there somewhere.
What If I Am A Black Woman?...
Is it a disease? Well, if it is, I sure hope it’s catching
Because they need to pour it into a bottle,
label it, and sprinkle it All over the people
men and women who have ever loved or cried,
worked or died for any one of us.
So, What if I am a Black woman?
Is it a crime? Then, Arrest me!
Because I'm strong, but I'm gentle,
I'm smart, but I'm forever learning,
I'm loving, but I can also express hate.
And I like to work because
I like to eat and feed and clothe
and house Me, mine
and yours and everybody's,
Like I've been doing for the past 300 years.
What if I am a Black woman?
Is it insane? Go ahead and Commit me!!
Because I want Happiness, not tears;
Truths not lies; Pleasure not pain;
Sunshine not rain; A man not a child!
What if I am a Black woman? Is it a sin?
Pray for me! And pray for you too,
If you don't like women of color
because we are, Midnight Black,
Chestnut Brown, Honey Bronzed,
Chocolate Covered, Cocoa Dipped, Banana Cream;
Big Lipped, Big Hipped, Big Breasted, Thin Lipped, Narrow Hipped, and BEAUTIFUL
all at the same time!
So what if I am a Black Woman?
Does it bother you that much because
I want a man who wants me,
Loves me and trusts me, and respects me
For who I am
And gives me everything because
I give him everything back... PLUS MORE!!
What if I am a Black woman? I've got rights,
same as you! I have worked for them,
died for them, played and laid for them,
On every plantation from Alabama to Boston and Back!
What if I am a Black woman?
I love me, and I want you to love me too,
But I am as I've always been,
Near you, close to you, beside you,
strong giving, loving, forgiving, and caring
For over 300 years, I have been Your Black woman, our Black woman, their Black woman, his Black woman... So Love me for who I am!
just an update of the beauty and beast:
That is where i make some firewood.
Still frosty in the morning, but slowly getting better.

* A mullet is a hairstyle which is popularly described as "Short on top, Long in the back". See diagram below:
* Common names for the mullet include (but are not limited to) : The Ape Drape. The Tennessee Waterfall. The 10/90 (the proportion of hair in front to hair in back). The Mud Flap. 7 (shape of the #) The Long Island Ice Teased. Business on Top-Party Out Back. Achy-Breaky-Big Mistakey. Yep-Nope. (Please don't e-mull me more names for mullets)
* The term Mullet(hair context obviously) traces back to the 1967 prison film Cool Hand Luke, starring Paul Newman and George Kennedy, in which Kennedy's character refers to Southern men with long hair as "Mullet Heads."
-What is a mullethunter
* Mullestache: A molester style mustache worn by MOST mullets. (And cops)
* Mullderline: (Advanced term) That in-between stage in the development of the mullet. Here is a good example.
* Mullshit: (Advanced term)cWhen it's clearly NOT a mullet. Example: Yer hangin' out at Del Taco and and yer friend says, "Look at that mull" and it's obviously not a mullet. You can now respond, "That's Mullshit".uff
* When there is a mullet title with a "ullet" attached to the end, pronounce it "YOU LETT". For example, "Flattopullet" would be pronounced as flat top you let. (As in life, there are exceptions to the rule. Figure them out.)
* I know there are plenty of celebrity mullets. They bore me, hence they are not on the page.
A photo for you all I took at Tralee bay yesterday.

Happy New Year to all on CS!!!!
I didn't do anything. I went to bed early and was awakened by the gunshots. When I finally got out of bed I had a great breakfast (I like to patronize Mom & Pop places so I go to a place called Johnny's Famous Hamburgers in Pomona, CA. Breakfast is served all day).
In a few minutes I am going to watch a bowl game. The ONLY one on free TV. Dang those expensive cable and dish channels! Then because I want to root for Oregon against Florida State I will go to a local bar and watch it there!
What's up with everyone else. Let's post and I will be back later this evening to answer!!
to all Christian believers around the world!!!!!!!!!!!
