Winter has finally come!

For a Time or For a Season


Brian A. "Drew" Chalker

People always come into your life for a reason, a season and a lifetime. When you figure out which it is, you know exactly what to do.



When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed outwardly or inwardly. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, or to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally, or even spiritually. They may seem like a godsend to you, and they are. They are there for a reason, you need them to be. Then, without any wrong doing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die, Sometimes they just walk away. Sometimes they act up or out and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled; their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered and it is now time to move on.





When people come into your life for a SEASON, it is because your turn has come to share, grow, or learn. They may bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it! It is real! But, only for a season. And like Spring turns to Summer and Summer to Fall, the season eventually ends.







LIFETIME, relationships teach you a lifetime of lessons; those things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person/people (anyway);, and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas in your life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant. Thank you for being part of my life.....

Don't know how I really feel about this one. Happy Easter to all!

Check this out!

I've notice  over the past year or so that, whenever the president is explaining the details concerning the new health care law, FOX news will show snippets of his argument then cut away to something else, Now, I realize that the Whitehouse and FOX news are not on the best of terms and I think it would be safe to say that the average FOX news viewer is probably not a supporter of the current administration. However now that the health care bill has become law, wouldn't you think that FOX news would show the president explaining the law in detail? Unless, people have already made up their mind that no matter what, they are going to  opposed this president in everything he trys to accomplish. MMMM! Bring the country to a stand still until 2012 (Election year)??? Grandma used to say that was "Cutting off your nose, to spite your face." Next time you happened to see or hear the president explaining the details on the HC plan, grab your remote and switch between FOX, MSNBC, and CNN and see if I'm wrong. I wish I was!

The Ladies Men????

I learned in elementary school don't get into fights with trnsgender types. Woman's mind with a man's strenght. DEADLY!!! LOL Damn!!!

Ok! I can't lie, she got me!

I was, like most brothers looking at her wares! I should've known Ms. Badu was gonna drop some science. nice vid... I mean nice song! yeah! That's what I meant!...Really! LOL

What more can I say!?

Biz Markie said it best... Damn! It feels good to see people up on it!

Alert! Ma says there's a website that displays all of your personal biz, including pictures of your home... More to follow.

22 degrees on Fort Carson this morning. WHY! I Really don't want to get out of this truck!

Phobia???

I remember reading in President Obama's book "The Audacity of Hope" something about former President Bush having a phobia about shaking hands. Mr. Obama (then a newly elected senator) mentioned that Mr. Bush squirted hand sanitizer in his hands immediately after shaking hands with him. Seems I remember former Whitehouse advisor, Karl Rove stating that this was a lie from Mr. Obama. I wonder...

Cracka Music!

There's a scene in the movie "Menace 2 Society" Where some guys are sitting in a car, and the cat in the backseat with the black nationalist mindset, ask the driver to play a tape. The driver takes the tape, looks at it and tosses it back to his boy and says "You know that shit gets no play up in my ride" or something like that. I remember my boy JB did the same thing to me back in the day (1984) when I asked him to listen to this song called "Owner of A Lonely Heart" by the british group YES. LOL! We would pull up down the street from Miami Northwestern Sr.High (Were we should have been in class) around the time school was about to let out, que up Quadrant 6's "Body Mechanic" and let that bass loose as we drove by the honeys.
(Seems silly as hell now, but it was effective)

My boy, JB wasn't try to hear it back then! If it wasn't on WEDR, or they wasn't bumping it on 15 AVE, that shit got no play! I tried everything to convince him that there was something in that "Cracka music" all to no avail. I thought the drums in The Romantics "Talking in Your Sleep" would do it. Nope! Maybe the technofunk of Thomas Dolby's "Blinded Me with Science" . Nah! Old boy wasn't trying to hear it! I always wonder if now, years later, my boy has opened up to music outside of what he deemed acceptable for rotation in the ride. I still think some of them White boys and girls was up on it!

What were some songs that you thought were "The Jam" that your folks just were'nt feeling? Hit Me up!

Feeling this new HBO series ' The Pacific'. It's like Band of Brothers part 2.

Is the cussing REALLY necessary?

My kids would say this was "Hot". Me?.. Jury is still out. I mean I like a lot of the music that's out now. (I try to stay up on it) It's just that sometimes... The cussing fatigues my ears. I miss stuff like  Con Funk Shun or This late night Miami (80's) classic . When did it become a requirement that you had to be vulgar on a love song? Hit ya boy back on this one. via facebook or Tweeter
