This is DEFCON 1: Alpha Male alert! Some Men have the wrong impression..It's NOT ENOUGH!! .sorry...

Attention! Wait! what time is it? I took too long of a pause. I have to get this 'liquid  fire' mainlined directly into you..'Get in my belly'(s/o to fat bastard circa 1999 #Austinpowers google it) It's not enough...It's just NOT...the math was done on scratch paper by primates! you know, the ones used in all things of relevance..duh(Dancing baby monkey ,monkey riding dog, Jane asking the monkey for directions.."waterfall?"...) It's just not enough to be a man or exist as said one. Here's a thought, why not become the Man you envisioned for yourself..despite what everyone thinks you should be doing to include the parrreennttss!(watch Pursuit of happiness circa 2006 the basketball court scene for clarity..muy importante') Where's the liberation in that? It indulges future speaking points, teaching moments and hale maybe bonding(sarcasm). This morning you opened "your eyepods" to yet another day. You ought to be appreciative of spreading your wings once again.To inhale life's' questions and obstacles then attack them head on like a 'Reality housewife'!..

It's just time young padawan(In my Obi Wan Kenobi to young Luke voice). Another example in my humblest opinion(I'm the author of this soooo) Figuratively speaking Big bro. Dwade to lil 'big azz bro' Lebron also 'figuratively' speaking about remaining in Miami at that time. It's time.. go Become. It's no longer O.K. to remain dormant. You can obviously, it's your life. Why cheat YOURSELF of getting the most out being a fully formed man. The responsibilities/burdens, Ups and the pissed off downs. Then there's falling in LOVE and living another day to repair life after heartbreak/breakup.The journey homeboy! Manhood is a journey and a series of mistakes and ego bruising as you evolve into a Man and 'Become' A King of your own destiny..Mufasa damn it!.
Literally speaking even if you muck things up in the process, It's the learning curve of Life you're creating for yourself.. Go succeed, fail, live and b.r.e.a.t.h.e. life. Exhale others answers of life and go take a few healthy metaphoric 'Sips'..I've been drinking for years friends.   

Watch where you shakin' that... thing!! but definately..SHAKE IT like a polaroid..it's 2016!

"I see you over there watchin', So why not give you somethn' to look at". Must I show you the way? Of course !..I answered. It's not just o.k. to do it, I personally believe it's mandatory...Well I mean if you're able and this isss the Millennium. Even if you never thought you'd see yourself doing it before. I believe in smile therapy as much as anyone, so It's a no brainer to me. What I meant by that statement is to say we all do things we're slightly uncomfortable with(or just damnit don't wanna do it "I'm TIED"..no 'R' needed) to make a stranger, friends or significant smile maybe even keep that #smile goin etc.. My point in mentioning that? Unless you've been on your console gaming every damn day, working or just hanging out with your jackass/Hangover friends too much lately.. Stop rubber necking around it's you NUT! You've probably been oblivious to her humming in the car or doin a lil ditty-bop in the house to her most favorite song of ALL TIME!(be aware of the use of the word all time.. in this context..It just means this month til it's out of her system and then 'On 2 the next one')..But she's #dancing..albeit on beat or verrry equilibrium challenged off! No need to worry about the details now, just get in there bub! before" turtleneck..Steve jobs" guy steps in off the bench...

Getting older for us MEN..is I dunno..Kewl!.....Tune in for more!

I was turning 40! Oh gawwwd..I couldn't believe I was about to lose teeth specifically designed to improve my smile..bump that!.."preventive maintenance" was key, brushing and flossing became more of a religion. Quite frankly it wasn't funny NO MO..too many men I'd known that didn't have Hockey or MMA as a hobby/career were 'bald mouf' (as Sandra Kay would so eloquently put it). It was something that deftly scared the 'ish' out of me.I tend to smile TOO D$MN MUCH! Not to mention I did my share of watching t.v as a kid. plus I really enjoy sports. There was no stopping it from where I was sitting. The Jefferson's (George) and Good Times 'ain't we lucky we got'em'(James..James..JAMES!) was in heavy rotation at my crib.My ole' boy controlled the remote and t.v. guide with every d$mn thing circled already!) 'Money Mike' Jordan was walking on air in the 80's! and 90's with cool azz Bugs Bunny and he couldn't escape the hairline thing. I didn't know what to do! Once the dreaded DNA gene hit or better yet U-N-D-E-F-E-A-T-E-D Father Time. I'm a regular dude (like most) So I didn't have extra to splurge on implants, cosmetic surgeries or Spanx for men... OUT of the 'effin' question( try a mudrun, Crossfit..something that involves an ACTION verb..i.e running,dancing lifting..etc.stop limiting yourself saying you don't have time to improve on you). I watched and implemented examples of men that were aging gracefully..i.e.Harry Belafonte, Smokey Robinson,Rev.Timmie McNeese (My Grandfather)..all had tidbits of knowledge that helped. Then I added that special sauce.... ME! Who else did you think I was gonna say...

Say Man!! HEYYY!..Which "FRIEND" did you ask to co-sign thaaaaat!?!?..

The aha! moment is upon you. At this very moment your outlook on life is paramount to becoming the 2.5 version of yourself(I only know of one guy in the year 3000! and he resides in the A.(tlanta) have been for a while..chillin! (What up 3!) murdered the fur leggings #lightyears.. The biggest mistakes I've seen thus far are MEN confusing 'ish' that's just for chicks.. pink toes. slim goodies ..WOMEEN damn it! That's trending at the moment. If you're like most, we live in the moment..FOR..the moment( at least I do)..I follow a few trends, as most of us do. I'm also mature enough to understand. I know when to practice restraint of certain looks, and for me that's foremost! I've been known to posses a certain young spirit(clothes included) Even though it may be the hottest SH*T IN THEM STREETZ  pimpn!!! #ducklips and pouty lips are a NOOO GOOO  hell naw..cut it out! Who co-signed that look? Which one of your supposed friends said "go ahead press send"?..It was a  joke! they made a funny!?! Hehehahah see just playing?!? No one took you serious. Sharing straight 'gobbage'...FOOL

Manhood O'Manhood where art thou!..YOU START MISSIN..The streetz START talkin..!

Mmmm..I like the sound of that...#MANHOOD( The voice in my head is of Mr.Hand while stroking my invisible goatee...Fast times at Ridgemont High#classic). I was under the impression that entering the "Secret Society of Man" I was 'gettin' INCHES boy! A slew of them, spread all over for good measure..if you must know I was hoping to get...tall..er? Yes taller! We'll go with that(It's still a PG-13 blog). Was I sorely pissed! What I did get was a wealth of knowledge that eluded me..just learning to PEE straight with some consistency "whew" I thought I was doomed!  Side-note: The free spirit in me love the fact that certain decisions were made recently that allowed 'people to be people'. I diiiig! Enough of that, back to my soap box..
I've often contended that I/We as men need change in some areas of our daily..but certain I'll say "FEATURES" should stand as defiant as say a..flag!?! My memories of tough guys did #NOT show them as being unkind or not being chivalrous, quite the opposite..Hale the earliest stories I heard about my Uncle Marvin Sr. was something I used to scare friends in the projects while having 1 up stories. His #manhood was/is intact like a chastity belt. Merle said his nickname was 'Thug be damned' or SUMTHN on the corner(blocks came later ya'hearrrd) don't quote me on the name. You know how 2nd hand info can be( pops is no longer chillin' with us)..
