Why the Jumpoff May Have It Better Than Wifey
It seems like when it comes to famous men, their ladies and their jumpoffs – everyone acts like the jump offs are the problem. Somehow if he is your man then you’re the winner in the, “I Got Me a Baller,” sweepstakes. The reality of the situation is quite different however. As far as I’m concerned, in the ongoing battle between The Wifey and The Jumpoff – the jump off is the winner, and here’s why:
1. I Have His Heart. Really? So what does having his heart mean exactly? He likes you a lot? He loves you? We know it doesn’t mean sexual fidelity. Does it mean he’ll be there for wifey if she’s sick? She’ll be there for him if he’s sick? What? Does it mean that it’s special when wifey gives him “head”? ’Cause let’s be real…she’s giving him head too. And here’s the thing…what makes wifey think he doesn’t like/love the jumpoff?
2. He Takes Care of Me. Okay…but to quote T.I. – It ain’t tricking if you got it. And anyone whose read any of Karrine Steffan’s books knows that ballers don’t mind dropping major cash on the other woman. So it doesn’t seem like wifey is getting a leg up on the jumpoff in this category either. Yes, if you’re married there are legal protections there (just look at what divorce is costing Tiger Woods)…but it doesn’t stop the jumpoff from getting broke off. And if she’s smart, any big ticket item she gets will be in her name. Legally the wife wouldn’t be able to touch said gifts if they ended up in divorce or upon his death. So you have Louis and she’s has Louis – seems like a draw to me. And if you’re just the girlfriend and not the wife…well…ask the Basketball Wives how well that’s worked out for them.
3. I”m the Mother of His Children. Ask Kim, P. Diddy’s ex, how well that’s worked out for her. Diddy’s jumpoff in Atlanta has his baby too and is getting fat checks as well. Nuff said.
4. Quality Time. So the wifey gets quality time? She goes on vacations and other expensive trips. Sure, but so does the jumpoff. Going back to the Jumpoff Bible…Steffans went on many an expensive trip and stayed in many an expensive hotel on somebody else’s man’s dime. My homeboy used to do marketing and PR for some of Miami’s top clubs and when D. Wade and Hoopz were dating he used to see them out and about….his wife was at home…pregnant…with his other son. And let’s not forget when T.I. was on the Mo’nique show Hoopz was sitting in the front row of the audience. Where was Tiny?
So I ask again: How is wifey the winner in all of this? The other woman is doing quite well. She’s getting money that could be spent on wifey and her kids. She’s getting time that could be spent with wifey and her kids. She’s getting sex wifey could be getting.
And more often than not, the jumpoff doesn’t have to deal with him when he’s tired, sick, injured or what not. She gets all the good times while wifey gets everything else.
So really, what does wifey have that the jumpoff doesn’t have?
His heart?
Yeah.
Okay.

Bankruptcy over Debt Settlement ANYDAY!!!!
Its about time to take the "BS" out of "Debt Settlement"!
Everybody talks about bankruptcy like its such a bad thing. You see more people trying to consolidate their debt. After watching this you tube clip, I will let you be your own judge of that...
One successful female lawyer of color said that 90% of he clients are either white, Hispanic, Asian or "Other", while blacks are believing that BR's are "bad" while these other races are going BR and then on the golf course "debt free" And we sit here and remain enslaved to debt. She did a BR and she just fine!

A Reader's response regarding the Illuminati, Satanic Symbolisms and MORE...
This message post is from someone who commented on the blog I posted titled:
"More BLATANT Illuminati and Satanic Symbolisms from the 2010 B.E.T. Awards"
They asked that they remain anonymous. This is what he had to say...
I hope this message finds you in great spirit and health. i thought of you when i was replying to this other thread i was reading somewhere else, b/c i know you've been making a point to try to "enlighten" people about this spiritual warfare we are engaged in. i'm sure you're finding that most people don't care and think people like us who have this info are "coo-coo for cocoa puffs"...lol. but we are not, it is them who are lost...
Anyway, i wanted to share the reply i gave with you, and also welcome you to repost it if you want, just do so keeping me anonymous....but i felt my reply was in line with properly explaining why some just don't and won't get it...
Niggas are PATHETIC. READ A BOOK and stop leaving your knowledge/education to be dictated by entertainment, media and blog debates. they know niggas don't and won't go read the books so they get your favorite artist to throw you off course.
There are countless books, videos and info out about this shit that existed before niggas knew what the fuck rap music was and before our mommas were babies. Ever heard of The Learned Elders of The Protocols of Zion? Probably not because Jay-Z, Rick Ross or any of your other idols haven't told you to go read it. But you'll go buy what they tell you to buy in their music.
The big problem is niggas DON'T READ SHIT, you livin your life through the words and lifestyle of your favorite artist who will tell your asses ANYTHING so you buy their music, products and image. do you REALLY think a nigga is going to confess his/her loyalty and position with some of this magnitude?
But i have a question. If you're not a GD, would you be wearing your hat broken to the right and throwing down a 5? If you're not a crip, would you be wearing a blue flag while defacing a red one? If you're not gay, would u rock a rainbow bandana?
So why would a person rock a shirt with the quote of A KNOWN SATANIST, us knowing satanism is evil (and then some), if he is not in line with what the quote means? why are you flashing symbolic signs that have been part of these secret societies since, once again, BEFORE there was rap music? if he is NOT a mason or illuminist, he's playing games with you and you're sucking it up.
The flipside to me is that maybe there's a very slight chance he's trying to pull your coattail to some shit by playing with such symbolism, but that side i don't see too clearly.
at any rate, the fact that so many people can sit and defend a person who "walks the walk, talks the talk" is proof that satan is working overtime to confuse your asses into falling in line with a thought process controlled by mainstream media and society.
Most of you niggas running around talkin' bout "FREE GUCCI", "FREE BOOSIE", "FREE WAYNE"..."FREE ANY NIGGA WHO MADE DUMB AS DECISIONS AFTER THEY HAVE HAD CHANCES TO GET AWAY FROM THE HOOD", are the same ones who think people like Jay Z and Kanye can do no wrong. Same niggas who DON'T yell "FREE MUMIA", "FREE SEKOU ODINGA" "FREE LARRY HOOVER", "FREE MUTULU" or anybody who has a real relevant reason to be freed...
This shit is deeper than "Jay-Z is a mason"...there's a network of evil working right now and there's a lot of dumb asses who have been programmed to defend it. If you don't think the spiritual warfare we are engaged in is real, you will when it's time. But by then it will be too late for most of the sheep who bought the mainstream hook and sink.
build on that.

Gulliver Brimstone:FreakShow
Gulliver Brimstone:Freakshow...heres an older piece from last year that I did for my first comic from Speakeasy Primates called Gulliver Brimstone. I did the drawing of course an Scott Claringbold did the writing for it an we created the character design together. At first he was gonna look alot like Hellboy but I decided to change it up alot an heres what I came up with. This piece was done after the first ASH CAN of the comic...there hasn't been really anything new for him lately, but there might be some new stuff comming soon. I will keep you all posted on that. Hope you like this old classic piece!
