Gambits and Origins

5) The House of Representatives has recently passed The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 a.k.a. Obama and the Democrats' $819 billion stimulus plan.

Without going into major detail, all I will say is that this is perhaps a massive gambit for the Democrats so far supporting this and the Republicans so far rejecting it. If it succeeds in the eyes of the American people, Obama instantly gets his second term without even thinking about it yet. If it fails...

I really don't want it to fail honestly, but you can put it together yourself if they do fail.

I also saw the actual bill that passed the house on Wedenesday. It's 647 pages! Also, Congress just discussed this a few weeks ago at the earliest. Either they are fast readers (which I highly doubt), their team of staff read pieces of it and discussed it together, or they didn't actually read this and only listened to their party leaders and the news on what the bill is supposedly trying to portray.

Either way, if you REALLY want to read it, click here. Seriously though, DON'T and just live out your lives.

4) After a long period of unemployment, I decided to go back to school. I'm currently taking Microbiology at a JC. It's pretty interesting. What I noticed though is that there is a lot of nursing and physical therapy students there. I guess that's the hot job right now in this country.

3) In case you're also wondering, I passed my interview with US Customs and therefore still eligible for the job. Continued prayers appreciated.

2) I woke up early and caught an interview with Larry Willmore on Morning Joe (He's a "reporter" on The Daily Show.). He was talking about his new book I'd Rather We Got Casinos. In it he put proof that Jesus was Black. He gave a preview by stating two pieces of evidence proving Jesus was Black:

(1) By the time Mother Mary was pregnant with Jesus, who the baby-daddy was became a major issue in the community.

(2) Jesus' cousin had a hip-hop name...John the Baptist. This was two-thousand years before Cedric the Entertainer!

It's in the Bible everyone. It really made me chuckle.

1) I have blogged this many times before about the origins of my last name. My cousin was searching stuff on Google, and she came across 4 definitions on Urban Dictionary. While the definitions range from dissing your co-worker for lunch by going with someone more powerful or affluent to a very large deffication (They must have met some pretty shitty Dumos' in real life.), I rather prefer definition (4):

(4) DuMO

The undisputed sex god of all the land.

Dude, he banged 15 chicks last night! He's such a DuMO!

I have found my origins. Thumbs up to that definition!

That is all.
