Are we as Americans becoming as stupid as we appear or are we just refusing to open our eyes to what is happening around us.

Black Ink Crew 11--11-13(#BlackInkCrew)
I watch Monday nights episode of the Black Ink and I watch the continue of Puma trying to get his business together and Caesar and Teddy go to check out Puma's soon to be tattoo establishment. Now I have to say that I still admire the way Caesar still tries to work things out with Puma and give Puma his props, although Puma definitely seems to no be having it. What I saw was a lot of work to be done, so Puma place is a work in progress. What I don't understand, not being from the area is why is there so many people on the streets in his soon to be business area, is the area safe for a person to even go in, well I guess since the tattoo parlor will only be open during the day time hours it should be okay, I guess or will they actually try to have this establishment in the evening hours as well, now that is scary. One thing I do not like is pan handlers bugging me when I am trying to enter an establishment, and just seeing them lying around, not knowing if you will be attacked or not is scary enough, I can not wait to see how Puma's establishment actually really turns out. Now as for O's**it, I am hoping he will stay with Caesar, especially since the business that he has established already knows where to locate him and you have to admit that Caesar parlor is in a much more safer area, some where a celebrity would not mind entering or feel comfortable. I know Puma wants to start his own business and that is fine, but why go after the people employed by someone whom you so called a friend of fifteen years. Puma is what a call a sneaky snake and if you ask me my opinion I would say that Caesar is right, Puma had this plan up his sleeves all along. I was really surprise to find that Puma was not a tattoo artist, he was what you call a Public Relations Manager, okay give me a minute I have to stop laughing. Okay as I have learned, public relations managers create and maintain a favorable public image for their employer or client. Now would someone tell me whom was doing whom the favor when it came to Caesar and Puma relationship in the business, because from what I saw Puma stood around the shop making jokes and acting like a fool, not to mention partying on a daily at night clubs. Now maybe Puma had a lot of friends and he use these friends to drum up business, but from what I saw this was not happening at all and I mean no harm, but if I ran into Puma and he was talking to me on the behalf of a business, I would personally run in the other direction in fear of what business would hire someone whom carried themselves as a business man while actually looking like a Puma, yes puma and the hair, the teeth and his dress attire does not impress me at all and you can complain and bicker about who the hell do I think I am but me as a person of color knows that when we carry ourselves as idiots, people look at us like idiots. We have to go far beyond to impress and this include our appearance. I almost burst out laughing when Sassy and the woman who was applying for a job at the shop, she was not a tattoo artist but she wanted a job, was flirting and Puma made the statement, that he will have to take lesson from Caesar and cut that relationship in the work place out, he was not feeling Sassy and this woman flirting. Wow Puma who said he was not going to be as up tight as Caesar and was just going to have fun at his shop had the audacity to talk about lesson on what not to do from where Caesar went wrong, well Puma you should make sure not to hire friends and if you do you better have your policies in place and make sure these friends sign them before you hire them. You have to love people because as the old saying goes it takes all kind and yes it does take all kind to make the world go around. We all want are cake and eat it too, when we get a slice or cake and it is not a big enough size or it is not as sweet as we want it, than we want to talk about how nasty the person whom gave you the piece of cake is, even after they was nice enough to give you a slice. Well I going to take a lesson from Caesar as well and say, good luck Puma, you will need it. Okay bring on the haters, any remarks just post them I would love to hear what you have to say.

The Housewives of Atlanta(11-10-13)
I watched housewives of Atlanta last night and I for one could not make to much of Kenya's apology to NeNe if that what is was suppose to be. What I did like was Nene getting Kenya to meet with all the woman so that she could explain her texting Apollo to the other woman. Now I am by no means in agreement with what Kenya did, but we do have to remember that it takes two and who remembers how Apollo in front of his wife was playing with Kenya. I have to say I was a little turned off with how Kenya did seem to flirt with Apollo, but I am sure Kenya is not the only woman who flirts with Apollo, it is only a matter of how far does Apollo takes it. Now the meeting went okay and I will say only okay, because although there were some shade thrown in all different directions, there were not any actual punches thrown or items and I give the woman a plus for this. Now for me Phadera has always rubbed me the wrong way, for some reason I have really never been a fans of Phadera and that very phony act that she puts on in front of everyone, and for one thing Phadera is never forthcoming about her life either. You will always find out things about Phadera on the down low or after the fact. Like what about her pregnancy, she has seemed to hidden it from the television viewers and why was this, did she not want people to see her pregnant and if this is so why is she on the show. I will have to say what I have said in the past, the show should have kept Marlo and gotten rid of someone like Phadera. For me Phadera is becoming very, no scratch that, she has always been boring and I do not know why the show is keeping her other than her having that eye candy called Apollo which is why the show is working on the angle of Apollo and Kenya. Phadera for the most part could be dropped from the show and we would never miss that turned up nose of hers. Now as for Ms. Cynthia, I love Cynthia and I love the way this woman carries herself. What I am starting to not like is Cynthia's husband Peter. Peter is showing a different side to me in how he seems to put Cynthia's feelings on the back burner and on last night show Cynthia reveled that she had fibrosis, which is something I have suffered from. Peter to me was unfeeling because he made the statement that if Cynthia stopped eating so much her stomach would not swell as big as it is, he was assuming that Cynthia just could not keep the food from her mouth which was making her stomach get so big, what a a**. Now as I was arguing at the television my husband made the statement to say, we man do not know what you mean when you women talk of these female problems. I told my husband that this is true but why not try looking it up on the Internet or talking to a doctor before assuming we are making up these things. There is too much technology and programs on television that talks of these things now that man should not at like a-hole because they are unaware of what we talk about. You as a husband should support your wives and if she is feeling sick urge her to go to the doctor right away. Peter claimed to have a better understanding when he went to the doctor and heard it out the doctors own mouth, but why is that, is that because the doctor has the degree and his wife may made up the problem in her head. Enough about Cynthia and Peter, now on to Kandi and her mother, was this not explosive the confrontation the two had about Kandi's fiancee. Now after listening to mama and Kandi I have formed my own opinion. I can understand how Kandi's feels that her mama Joyce is butting in her personal business and that she is a grown a** woman that is smart enough to handle her own personal affairs but I too understand that mam Joyce is very protective of her daughter and grand daughter and goes on by what Kandi's daughter Riley is actually telling her, I do not think it is the way that Kandi says that mama Joyce is telling Riley things. I think the entire family needs to sit down, this includes Riley because she is old enough, and they need to all talk about how they really are feeling without any interference from any of the others while they talk. I want to first hear Riley talk because I know what every she says Kandi will really listen too. Now I have notice one thing about Kandi and that is she seems to fall in love fast and it is always someone who is a little below her level. Kandi is a hardworking woman and I think she deserves a man that works as hard if not harder and I think people want to see this for Kandi, that is why it is so hard to accept someone like Todd whom seems to be in the house sitting down some where and just always on the computer and now he is going out of town for the reason he says to get more work, what exactly is he talking about. I thought Todd was working on the show itself, did he have to stop because he began dating Kandi, I little lost on this and as to why he has to go out of town for work when Atlanta has plenty of job opportunities for him. As for Porsha and Cordell, I do not know how to take this storyline because there are still a lot of holes in this situation. I want to entire story as to their divorce, I know I hear a lot of people are trying to say that Cordell is gay but I am not choosing to believe that, if you ask my opinion I think Cordell has found another woman, I think the reason he wants Porsha out so quickly is so that he can move the next woman in. It is easier for a woman to say that a man is gay than to admit he might have another woman, especially since Porsha is so beautiful, as everyone keeping saying, he would never let the beautiful woman go if he was straight. I have said this to so many of my friends, that beauty is not everything, beauty does not make a relationship alone. We all know that men want eye candy on their arms but sometimes that is not enough, there sometimes have to be substance. You can be the most beautiful person in the world and have the ugliest attitude and down right nasty ways that makes you ugly in a lot of people eyes.
The Mask Magician Secret Reveled
Does anyone watch this show in which the masked magician revels secrets of how magician's do their tricks and how they are able to fool us. Well I know some people do not like this show for the reason they give away secrets that were close to a lot of our hearts, well want to believe in magic so much that it hurts for someone to say that none of it is true. I am sure their are a lot of magicians that want to kill this magician for telling of the secret to their tricks and this is why the magician remains masked for fear of his life. I for one is one of those people who loved magic, I have always enjoyed watching and has always be amazed and was always curious as to how these magicians did these tricks. So for me I like watching this show and was glad that someone actually came forward to tell how these tricks are actually done, for me this show does not really ruin magic for me because I always knew it was fake, I just did not know how it was done and now because of this show I actually know how some of the tricks are done. Now for me I still want to go to a magic show and actually see for myself if I can actually figure out how the magicians are performing these tricks, it does not bother me having that knowledge of what I watched on the secrets reveled show. Now for some people like my daughter who stepped in the room while I was watching one of the mask magician's show, said why are they doing this someone needs to stop him, does not like to know and she thinks it is right down wrong of the mask magician to revel these magicians secret. I know for some people not knowing is the excitement for them, I guess it is that feel of believing in something that you are not sure if it is real or not. The reason I brought up this show is because I would like to see others revel other shows or things like, how mediums give people readings and how they so call talk to the dead. I happen to see Long Island Medium pop up on television again and I hear the hope in the people's voice that she be giving them about actually communicating with their dead love one. Now for me I am very hesitant to believe that a human on earth can talk to anyone they meet dead family member. So will someone take the time to do what the mask magician does to these mediums and revel to us how they are doing what they do to make people believe that they are talking to their dead ones. I personally do not think people like the Long Island Medium should make money off other peoples grief. People think a lot of time that their loved ones died years ago and that the grief is not still their but you have to remember that when it is a loved one, the grief never goes away and it only takes small triggers to make you think of them again and you become very heartfelt and you get very emotional. You for the most part began losing train of thought because your focus becomes on that dead one again. Now Teressa claims dead sprits follow her every where she goes so this make it possible for anyone she run into love dead one to pop up by her side to talk with that person, through her. I for one is not believing it and I am not believe Teressa and I want someone to have the guts t reveal how she and others do what they do.
The Walking Dead(#TheWalkingDead)
I watched the walking dead last night and I expected some of it, like some of those that were sick actually turning into the dead and almost taking over the sick ward. I was looking for the young girl to actually break out killing zombie to zombie but I guess she is just not ready as of yet. I was looking for the other group that went out for medicine to return as the zombies knocked down the gates but it was left to Rick and Carl to take them on using their powerful assault weapons, which were great think God they had these weapons, I just hope they have more ammo or can find more ammo if they are out. Now I am glad that Sasha made it through because she I think can add to the cast, especially since Rick has banned Carol from the group, Sasha can be that substitute. Now as for Glenn, I am not sure how I feel about him because I really have not felt that Glenn adds to the group other than being a sleep partner for Maggie, so I feel he could be gone and the only one that would miss him is Maggie. Now here comes the group that went to get the medicine after both fights broke out that in the sick ward and that outside the gate, just after the others have gotten everything under control, now they get to help with the clean up. What was so great about these battle is once the medicine has arrive, everyone can be treated and the sick ward is not only looking better the outside is completely cleared of walkers now that Rick and Carl has knocked them off and the gates are down. The prison with the vegetables growing in field is almost looking like a farm, except we get to see outside the prison off in the woods there is this one eye watching and you realize it is the Governor, yes the Governor has now return, something I was looking for but now you think to yourself, what next these people has been through so much and has killed more zombies than their share, why now after a little break has the Governor decided he will again stir up problems for this group. Why can not the Governor go about his business and leave this group alone, the world is full of so many zombies and the Governor decides he wants to fight other humans, I guess this is what you really call greed. It is almost like the Hitler syndrome, you want to rule people and have them follow what you want them to do, you want to have people be your followers. The Governor is a sick man and I am with Michonne, when she was on that journey to hunt down and kill the Governor, she had it right this man will not stop until his is killed. What I will find interesting is when Carol returns to the show, because I know she will, it will be a matter of how she will return. Most people say they do not think Carol will hold a grudge but with this show you never know. Now I am waiting to see what the Governor has in store for next week, time will only tell.

My Blog(1-800-Smack-Me)
I will reiterate as to why I began writing my blog, an the reason for this is because I am getting replies back from some smart azz whom seems to think I am writing of what I do not know, and my answer to this is that you are correct. Most of my blog is written on reality shows I like to watch and what do I write of these reality shows, I write of what I saw and what is my opinion of what happen and what could possibly happen in the future. These blogs of my opinion and my opinion only and what I like most is for the people who choose to read my blogs to write in on what they think as well. So for those who do write in, I welcome it, even if you disagree. The more people who reply to my post the better, I want to here from people and I want to know if you agree or disagree and what is your thinking. So if you do decide to reply you can do so without call my and a-hole, but if you choose to call me an a-hole remember you will be called one back or maybe worse. If I choose to believe that Amazing Race is showing signs of cheating for contestants than that's my opinion, if I choose to say Puma from Black Ink got his a** whipped the other night and Sassy has no backbone, than that my opinion, If say that Peter Gunz is a a-hole and is not a real man, than again that is my opinion. I know the say an opinion is like an a-hole everyone has one, but that is we have freedom of speech in America. If you feel I am an a-hole, than as I say you can say it but don't get mad if I come back at you. You have to remember I like writing and I do not mind writing anyone back, if you have a question ask me. Again thanks to all of you who read my blog and choose to leave replies, I am loving it.

Chrissy and Mr. Jones 11-4-13
Chrissy and Mr. Jones is a great show and like I said before I love these two people but my biggest thing is that I am not hearing them talk of the wedding at all anymore and although I understand that they want to lay of this subject for now, I think they should set a date and it can be in the future but they could have seasons of Chrissy preparing for this future wedding date. Say if Chrissy and Jim decides to get marry in 2015, than we can watch them preparing for this. Wedding does not always have to be, the man proposing and two months later they are getting married. I have never understood these people that jump into the marriage right away anyway like the man will drop off the face of the earth if they do not get married within that two months. I would like the show to have Chrissy start talking and actually playing for a big wedding, and yes I want to see these two have a big wedding. Let a date be set and lets have episodes of her doing little each time to make this wedding almost prefect. I think Chrissy is the type of person who can plan her wedding on her own if she has time, she does not need a wedding planner. I like Chrissy taste and I think she can do a great job, as a matter of fact I think Chrissy would be great a being a wedding planner. Chrissy has a great eye for fashion and this includes a great eye for putting things together. I know that Chrissy said she was not sure what direction she wanted to go in and that she got out of the fashion business, but we all see that Chrissy has a great eye for fashion and putting things together so she could be either a wedding planner and interior decorator. These two jobs are areas I think Chrissy would be great at and she could maybe do a decorating of a celebrity house on an episode and this could be her start. If the show is willing they could pay for Chrissy to do my house, I am willing to be a participant if the so pays for it, wink, wink. I can not decorate according to my husband and always wanted someone to come in and give med advice as to what I could do to make my husband happy with décor. I would like to see Chrissy do something outside the home and as for Mama Jones, she needs to leave that young man alone, because he is all about jumping on Mama Jones band wagon and as Mama Jones would say their no jumping on this potain for that young boy.
Extreme Couponing
I know of people cutting coupons and saving all this money and I have always wanted to do this but just do not have the time or patience to do what these people do to get these coupons and understand all the aspects and rules to using these coupons. I just do have never had that time to dedicate to doing things like this, although am the type of person that when I get started on something I do not stop until I have accomplished everything I set out to do. Now back to these extreme couponing, I love the show and I really like seeing how a lot of the woman with large families learn to beat the economy and feeding their families using these coupons to cut their grocery bills by more than half its price. Now the government could use these woman to help them budget the United States economy. Most of the time we have people in charge with all this education and degrees but if you never had to really scramble to make it in life or had to really budget to feed make sure your children could eat then you do not really have that understand of what it really takes to make this happen and how hard it really is for people in the world today. Anyway back to this show, I am loving how these family began working together once they understand how important it is in saving money and the children even chip in to help the parents go around and find the items in the store, these woman and men have my up most respect with what they are doing and I wish that I had the patience to do this as well, but because I do not I guess I will be paying full price for groceries. It is important for all us to understand budgeting to run our family income and watching these family do what they do with the couponing helps us to understand that these family know how important it is to budget. I am not sure if the high schools are teaching the young teenagers about this but this is one area I think all young teenagers should learn before going into the world and it should be made clear to them that with United States economy today, it is even more for them to understand the meaning of money and saving. I have found myself explaining to my young teenagers why it is important to value money and not just buy things because you have it. I explained to them when they got jobs that what bills that we had to pay and I gave them each a bill, be it a small bill to pay each month so they would have to understand what me and their father go through month after month. This lesson at home has made me confident that my children understand the handling of money, my oldest always make sure she pays her bills first and she knows that what she have left over she splits into a saving. She has the understand that if she wants to do a vacation she can go with us on vacation and we split the cost, it works out great. That is something else families can do they can go of vacation trip with other family members and split the cost, it saves them money in the long run. We as Americans can save if we want to, we have to understand that there are others in the same situation as they are and it is nothing embarrassing about sharing cost on things like vacations or parties, say if you want to throw kids parties together and split the cost, why not. Americans are learning to do what most countries already do and that is they work together to help each other survive. I know we always like to show in America to say to your families or neighbor, look what I have that you do not have, but I do not understand why this matters in our society, why is having more than your neighbor is so import. Lets do like the coupon clippers and show how we can save more than our neighbors makes your special. If a person shows me how much money they save then I am impressed and want to know how they did it.
