Genie...

There were 3 friends stranded on an island. Exploring the island, the 3 men found a bottle so they opened it. A genie came out, and she said that she would grant them 3 wishes.
The first man said, "I wish I was with my family" then poof he was with his family.
The second guy said "I wish I was in a bar with my friends" then poof he was gone.
The third guy was feeling bad and the genie asked, "What's wrong?" The man said, I'm lonely I wish my friends were here. Poof, his two friends were back on the island.

Hey no pun was intended at you alright Jinni, this is just only directed towards men.

The Love You Never Tasted


He said:
She is as delicate as a dove’s wing,
I desire death now more than anything.

My reply:
I trained my heart for you
And now she will not move
For any other love
How ever true.

A year or two I wasted
And then I drank it up,
Love which is love, a cup
You never tasted.

Tell Him, O' Night



Tell him, O night,
How your black sword has killed my golden days
And your black brush obscured the smooth delight
About my eyes dim ways.

The breasts of my distress
Are pressed against the thorns of appetite,
Desire my food and my drink sleeplessness;
Tell him, O night.

True Stories About Racism

Below are two stories on racism that i recieved from a colleague. I wonder if it is true of this is just another hoax to rile up and hate each other. Buuuut as its' about hatred and all, I thought I'd just put this one in on my blog and see what happens. Well, the email did say pass on the message and what better way to pass it on than by the good graces of the world-wide-web. So here goes nothing and my everything. Enjoy the read...
Story One:
I'm sure many of you watched the recent taping of the Oprah Winfrey Show where her guest was Tommy Hilfiger. On the show, she asked him if the statements about race he was accused of saying were true. Statements like"..."If I'd known African-Americans, Hispanics, Jewish and Asians would buy my clothes, I WOULD NOT have made them so nice. I wish these people would *NOT* buy my clothes, as they are made for upper class white people."His answer to Oprah was a simple "YES". Where after, she immediately asked him to leave her show.
My suggestion? Don't buy your next shirt or perfume from Tommy Hilfiger. Let's give him what he asked for. Let's not buy his clothes, let's put Him in a financial state where he himself will not be able to afford the ridiculous prices he puts on his clothes. BOYCOTT. PLEASE SEND or DONT THIS MESSAGE TO ANYONE YOU KNOW. Then send it to the whole community that's not white people and see the result. We have to see the result of unity. Let's find out if Non-whites really play such a small part in the world. Stop buying any range of their product, perfume, cosmetics,clothes, bags, etc...
Next Story:
Scene took place on a British Airways flight between Johannesburg andLondon. A White woman, about 50 years old, was seated next to a black man. Obviously disturbed by this, she called the air hostess. "Madam, what is the matter," the hostess asked. "You obviously do not see it then?" she responded. "You placed me next to a black man. I do not agree to sit next to someone from such a repugnant group. Give me an alternative seat.""Be calm please," the hostess replied. "Almost all the places on this flight are taken. I will go to see if another place is available." The Hostess went away and then came back a few minutes later. "Madam, just as I thought, there are no other available seats in the economy class. I spoke to the captain and he informed me that there is a seat in the business class. All the same, we still have one place in the first class." Before the woman could say anything, the hostess continued: "It is not Usual for our company to permit someone from the economy class to sit in the firstclass. However, given the circumstances, the captain feels that it would be scandalous to make someone sit next to someone so disgusting." She turned to the black guy, and said, "Therefore, Sir, if you would like to, please collect your hand luggage, a seat awaits you in first class."At that moment, the other passengers who were shocked by what they had just witnessed stood up and applauded.
Both the above are true stories. If You are against racism, please send this message to all your friends; I am not going to tell you whether or not to DELETE this OR to FORWARD it.

Wise Words

The wise will keep
His treasure hid apart;
True gold is hidden in the heart,
A miner never had to dig so deep.
