Magic pill that saves on fuel

As gas prices soar to dizzying heights, the need for alternative ways to save on fuel is higher now more than ever. Here in Phoenix Az, the gas prices are already at 3.5 and  moving dangerously towards 4dollars a gallon. More and more poeple are abandoning their cars at home to take the bus. Everytime you stop at a gas station to pack the tiger in the tank, the bite in your wallet is harder than that of an alligator.  Now a research company has produced an organic capsule that will not only increase the your gas mileage by about 14%, but also clean your engine and make it run like new. This is what the world has been waiting for (well of course except the gas companies). When my husband first mentioned it, I was abit skeptical. Then he put the pill in his tank after filling it and he is still going and his engine (and believe me his car is not brand new) is running like new.

The capsule works by improving the vehicle’s combustion and lowering the temperature in the exhaust pipe. As a result your car uses more of the gas you put in, giving you more miles and a cleaner engine. The product is also environment friendly as it reduces toxi gas emissions. In my view, this is the second most exciting inovation after the computer and Internet (well and the wonder Bra). Click here for more about this pill (and how you can make money out of it too) or to simply buy the pill and other environment-friendly products for your home and car.

Obama is not black!!!

Why is everyone going around claiming that Obama is black? Black people want him to be black  (perhaps in the hope that he can relate to them and represent their needs and perhaps even play ‘pay back time’ with them) and for some reason or another white people too seem more comfortable beleiving that he is black ( can’t figure out a reason why)! Could it be because as humans, we have a penchant for controversy? The presidential race would have less controversy or intrigue if Obama was perceived as the zebra he is… black and white. The issue of race should not even be popping up during this race, because Obama is a balance between black and white. If we chose to refer to Obama as a black presidential candidate, we might as well refer to him as a white presidential candidate.

Some people may “so what if he is not black?” So race should not be an issue in this campaign. So white folks should have no fear that if or when Obama becomes president ( and I doubt he will) he will be shooting for black supremacy and playing pay back to white folks for injustices that black America has gone through- he has allegiance to both races. And lastly and more important to me, so people should not support him basing on his skin color. That is a very shallow and immature basis for choosing a leader. African Americans should be able to recognize and support him for what he represents rather than his skin color.

Lay low, Rev. Wright!!!

He has been silent, but now he is speaking out. Rev. Wright, Senator Obama’s pastor who put him (Obama) in probably the hottest soup he has been in since the campaign began is now on TV talking about those controversial speeches posted on Youtube. He says that he and Obama speak to two different audiences in two different words (paraphrased). He speaks as a pastor and Obama speaks as a politician. The good ‘old uncle’ as Obama previously refered to him is doing more harm than good to his sheep’s campaign. Whether his comments where taken out of context or not is not the issue. The issue is that it caused a storm and Obama had managed to quiet it after his moving speech on race. The last thing America or Obama’s campaign needs is for the Wright debate to be reawakened. That comment about ‘different worlds’ only makes out Obama to seem like a two faced person who says one thing and believes another. That does not help Obama’s campaign. If Wright has such a close relationship with the Obamas and indeed wishes him succeess in the race, it would be a smart thing to lay low until Obama has won or is thrown off the race. If does not have to take back his words if that is inded what he believes. He just needs to lay low. In the meantime, Rev. Wright and Black America in general should move from crying over the injustices inflicted on them by white folks in history, lick those old wounds and move on. Life is too short to spend whining about such issues. The fact that a black man is running for president just goes to show that things are better and that ebony and ivory can live together in harmony. (Am black, so am not being racist here).

Computeraised kids

I am watching Oprah right now (..isn’t every female?) Nate Bertkus is talking about hitech gadgets in the home. The Burke-Contes family has a hi-tech ’smart house’ in Seattle. Everything is computerized. The childrens watches are ‘keys’ to the house. Basically they wave their watches at the wall and bang..the door opens. The grocery list, sleep and shopping list is all computerized. The system makes the shopping list and even recommends stuff that the family might need. Apart from the fact that ‘Cleopatra’ the talking computer is hotter than Posh Spice and might pause a threat to wife, I am amazed at what technology has come to. Some really nice stuff. Makes life alot more convenient and if I had extra money to spare, I would probably pimp my house abit. I am also a little apprehensive about what this is going to do to children. If children come home and are welcomed by a ‘Cleopatra’, take instructions from this computer and basically are being parented by computers, what is going to happen to them? Isn’t this taking it a little too far? When do these parents ever get to play Mom and Dad? Do these children ever get a hug or kiss from their parents or have any meaningful conversation with their parents?  Will these children ever be able to relate to their parents or real people in the real world? Will they ever learn to ‘use their heads’ to make responsible decisions? Is ‘Cleopatra’ equiped to answer their questions about boys, sex, respect and all the things people need to know to make the right choices for their lives?<p>Already kids in America are being parented by MTV, the internet and a zillion other crazy TV programs as parents get more and more busy with their careers. Computerizing the entire house is not going to make things any better. No wonder kids in this country are so messed up, lossed and lacking in self esteem and identity!

How to cheer up your sulking wife

It may be an anniversary forgotten, a promise broken, or voice raised; the men in our lives have a way of pouring cold water on our moods. Personally, something as simple as a voice being raised at me just dampens my mood and puts me in quiet mode, sometimes lasting the entire day. Like many men will say a quick sorry and expect life to go on as usual. For me and for many women, that is simply not enough. Often times, men do not realize that it is the little things that can lift a woman’s mood and make her feel loved and cared for. Guys are likely to make sexual advances at their women, hoping that it will cheer them up. That works for men, not for women! When a woman is low emotionally, sex is the last thing on her mind! Guys here are some 10 things you can do to cheer up your woman, when she is low, for whatever reason…More
