apples revisited

Could you imagine if Congress spent as much effort trying to find out who really shot MLK / Malcolm X / Biggie / or Tupac as they have on how poorly our American soldiers are behaving in Iraq?

wow. I didn't realize all this talk of women being rotten apples would cause such a furor.... I've revisited my position and have come to a conclusion on the issue...

Those rotten apples on the ground were once on the top of the tree and the apples that were on the end of the low branches that were within reach got eaten. (They were shinyer then a MFer too.)

I truly believe that the crap that women go through on many level is of their own making. They have control over their most powerful possession. It makes men do all kinds of stupid things. The issue is women WANT men to think like women but we do not.

Also, the treachery that they practice on each other allows men to do their thing. Women are their own worst enemies. Granted men should have more integrity but generally we do not. Especially when there is so much tail floating about that is just handed to you. While all this is happening women become rotten apples. Then they tend to bring baggage with them into every relationship.

Relationships take work. All those bright shiny pure untouched apples are ALL the way up on the top of the tree out of reach, hiding out in their apartments going back and forth to work, church, or at the gym with headphones on, etc.... (like I ever go to the gym, but you know what I'm sayin'). If we knew how to reach those apples, we would but until we figure it out, we're going to stick with the ones that fall off the tree.

I probably just made things worse, but..... nevermind....
