Balls, Ass, More Balls and Lebron James - Details at 11!

Maybe I'm just too serious. Maybe I don't know what's news worthy and what's not. I don't know. It could be my heartfelt concern over the number of military troops, or civilians for that matter, that have died since these freakin' unauthorized wars began. Nah...perhaps it's my astonishment that oil has been gushing into the gulf since May and just the other day some reports of oil balls (look that one up in that stupid urban dictionary) the size of a baby gremlin are washing up on shore in Texas! Whatever my problem is leaves me little patience for the bull our media is trying to peddle as news these days.

I mean really folks let's get serious...I like basketball. Well not really but I used to really like basketball - back when it was a game and not a meat market full of over paid, over rated, over indulged boys that cheat on their wives, beat up fans, post naked pics online...and hold a full fledged press conference to say - "I'm going to South Beach!" WTF! Wouldn't a written statement from his agent have sufficed?

Then there's America's First Family....not to be confused with the Obama's. I'm talking about the Kardashians. Kim, Kourtney, Khloe, and the rest of the Armenian empire. If I'd known giving a horrible blowjob, having a fake ass, and hosting my own how-many-brothers-can-I-sleep-with-in-one-life-time marathon were going to make me rich, famous and the spokesperson for cosmetics, fragrances and clothing lines....I'd still be poor as hell!

It's like balls (bouncy ones or those housed in a sac) and who's playing with them are more important than our ecosystem being shot to hell...or our economy and political infrastructure being in the worst shape I've seen in decades....And while I'm at it let me just get one other little thing off my chest.

The first president I can recollect watching on TV was Gerald Ford. I was all of six or seven when he was sworn in as our Commander-in-Chief. And I'm willing to bet my folks didn't agree with everything he did or said as POTUS...or Reagan, or Bush, or Clinton, or lil'Bush...but one thing you had to admit is that the office itself was worthy and deserving of respect.

When Big George Bush gave the commencement speech at my sister's graduation from little Alcorn State University (a historical black college) in Lorman, MS it's was a big to do! This was the freakin' president!!! What happened to that? What happened to the respect...the high regard for the highest office in the land? President Obama may not have been your choice, your candidate or your color...but he is your president....okay, done with that.

Crap....what was I saying about balls!?
