Interview with my Dad

This was an interview I did of my dad talking about the things he remembers during the 60's.

Do People Change?

Do people really cgange after something bad happens? I really dont think so. Most of the time people say they've "Learned from their mistake" but in reality a majority of people dont. Look at me for example. My first speeding ticket was in my '94 Mustang GT 5 liter. I was in ARCADE (haha) racing this cat, doing 97 in a 55....caught by a GSP. Woops....! Now dont get me wrong, I still speed, but I'm always watching for cars with the lights on top. So with that given, I dont think all people really change. I mean look, no body is perfect.

Affairs

I think we need to chill with getting in other peoples business. We've healped so many countries, and we dotn ever get paid back. Look at France, we've saved their butt a few time and they want to back down wiht us or try and start something all the time. Yeah right... Iraq? Man how we've done good for them. And their still screwing us on oil prices. Eventhough thats prob not their issue, but they can help us out some. Cuba is also another piece crap of a nation. They always want to try something with all these other nations, like cough cough....us! We could blow them off the planet if we wanted. But their scared....homeboy has already stepped down from his position b/c he knows waht we could bring.

Getting in other peoples business

Jumping in peoples business isnt always the best thing to do. Sometimes its ok if you wanna help your friends and you dont get too involved. Im sure Ive been in someones business, we all have at one point or another. But I honstly cant remember a certen time I was. I get really mad when people are in my biz and dont need to be. Im a very private person so I keep my business to myself.

Richest People

I really dont care about the rich people in our nation. Mainly because those people like to flaunt there financial status, and that just gets on my nerves. My dreams are to become a cardiologist or an Radiologist, make my own bread (money) and open my own custom car shop down the road. So with that said, I dont envy them in the least. Alot of people get their money by scamming others, like by sueing others. Thats easy, I can do that. If you really wanna feel good about making your cash, do something honest, help others with your wealth. If it were me, I would help people in my career, as well as donate to people that are less fortunate.

Middle School Fight

One of my first fights was at Burney Harris Middle School. Some races normally dont get along if you know what I mean, and if you know me then you know one Im not to fond of. I always had my white friends, and my black friends. We always looked out for each other. The hispanics never really liked me because I have an attitude and I really didnt care what you thought about me. So they thought it would be a good idea to try and jump me because I always screwed with this one dude. He was a smart alic to me, and like my dad always says dont get mad, get even. So I always did. Word in the halls he and some of his friends were gonna jump me one day. Not scared at all, I just hit up my friends and made sure they knew because they wanted a reason to do something. So one day after lunch the hispanics left the caf early, me and my boys were coming down the halls to go to our next class. We saw about 5 or 6 of them blocking the halls so we couldnt get through. But uhh....we wernt having that. I said "You might wanna move...homes" One of em' smarted off someting in spanish (I guess b/c they're to scared to say it in english) and Id had enough by then. So I grabed dude by the back of the head and slammed it into the locker, hard enough to break his nose pretty well. Then like 3 more of them stepped up....so did my my boys. I had like 20 something cats on my side. Then they felt worried that they were going to be late for class. I think they got a little scared. The relationship seemed pretty good after that, they never messed with me after that. So always keep friends that will always be there when you need them. As well as always be that friend that will be there when they need you.

Slide or Die

Supra's Top Ten List

The Pain and the Excitment

Growing up in the early 1800's Hmm.....
This seem to be a very fun but cautious jerney. Trying to fight for what I believe in, being shut down at times, people trying to take over my land. I feel very confused at times. Do I fight or do I give in?

This seems to be going through alot of minds back in those days. You have the excitment or fighting for what you think is right, for your land and love ones, as well as fighting for the people to come in the later years. This seems to be pretty cool being bad and not giving up. But there's a price to pay for all of this....and it's called pain.
Think of you land being taken over by your enemy, think of them killing your family for fight for whats right, think of being somebody's slave for the rest of your life. When you really think about it all, it really sucks. People dieing for just associating with you. Those people getting shafted for getting the worse end of the deal. We've came along way, and if you really think about it, it still happens today. Reamember, for every gain, there's a loss.

Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death

I learned that people back then were real. They stood up for what they believed in, and worked together. Something we dont do much of today because we're to worried about our own backs. They demanded for what they believe in and wern't scared about anything. They were strong and never seemed to back down no matter the circumstances.

I'm suprised that we got away with all of this and have so much we have today. They never seemed to be intemmidated, and I wish that we were still like that today. Most power figures today won't take to many chances because they are to worried about their reputation.

About the Duties of Husbands and Wives

This just talked about the lines between husbans and wives back in the 1700's. A wife is to be treated as the husbans own flesh, but not as a slave. Both should be loveing and careing. The husban was head of the house. They should never be physical to eachother.

We kind of got the same going on today, but some husbans are not as loyel and good as they were back then. Most are still marked head of the house, but women have real working jobs now as aposed to working in the house. Alot of the wives still cook today and keep the house clean while the men still go out and make a good portion of the money.

When is Breaking the Law Justified?

1. I think the Gov should be in control, without being over controlled
2. Shouldn't always be out for getting our hard earned money.
3. They shoud keep up safe, not keep things from us.
4. Help us in the long run insted of always screwing up because they got the power.
5. Provide for the less fortinet.

I would deff join a revolution to fight our Gov. I mean, if your not doing your job at your work place, then why should they pay you, why should they waste their time with you? If it's gonna cost you money as well as aggervation then its not worth your while.So the way I look at it, if the Gov. isn't doing their job, then we need to "assist" them.

Immigrating 2 Jamaica/Bahamas

People wanna come to the U.S. because it's a free nation and the opportunity we have here as well. They want to better themselves, so they come here legal or not. When they come here, they have to leave their homes and family behind most of the time, but when they come, they gain a new start as well as a green card. If your in my country you need to be legal.

If I were to immgrate, I would prob have to go to Jamaica or the Bahamas. I love Rasta music in the Rasta colors, and it seems like a pretty cool place to be. Now the Bahamas, beautiful water and sceneary. I just have always loved the tropics and palm trees.

About Tha King

Just a normal teenager getting through high school. It's my last year...thank God. Other than that, I like messing with my cars, love drifting and street racing. I've got a '89'Toyota Supra TT and a '90 AE92 Toyota Trueno (Corolla). I just sold my '94 Ford Mustang GT 5.0 to a buddy of mine, but hope to get it back sometime down the road. So as you can see, I love cars. I hope to have my own custom car shop in Tampa one day.
