Here we go again........

I am Ward (and I still don't get involved in politics!!!)

what Ward is Wondering now???????

*Some people are upset about Stacy Dash deciding that she is not voting for Obama this time around. Who really cares, its her choice to vote or not vote anyway right? I think its just a ploy to get free press and a new acting gig, besides she has married 3 white men already! *How is it possible for some of the world's dumbest people to get into leadership roles. (Karrie Hibbard this means you-lol). Is it timing, sympathy or sexual??? *Is it better sometimes to pay full price rather than getting the hook up. I mean the man may tax you more, but he will do what he promised and give you documentation while the other man has no problem over promising you and under fulling your needs. *If everyone knows they can die at any given moment, why do we always treat loved ones so bad? *What makes brothers who get large sums of $$$ forget about the sisters? *Is racism gone or does it wear blue uniforms now? *If over 50% of marriages end in divorce, are the couples who remain married happy? *Why do I miss Chocolate stars? *What up with men and these prostrate exams? There has got to be another way (4 reelz) *I am amazed how many people want that stupid I*phone. Don't you have an Ipod and Ipad already? *Why does the dude have to be a mind reader in the relationships? *Why do Gay people think its cool to hijack the rainbow for their cause? Didn't God say it represented his promise to never flood the Earth again? *Why do people lie to you and really think you believe them. Just ell the freaking truth already. *Why do people argue on Facebook..........still? *How many new talk shows can they come out with and never run out of stupid guest. Heck Ricky Lake is even back. Steve Harvey is trying to get Oprah's old audience (and seems to be winning). I am Ward....

I love cars, but wonder about the buyers eye meet!!!!

The ups and downs of being a small time car deal can literally drive a man to drink (well Kool-Aide with extra sugar if you are me!). I have been buying and selling cars since I was 19 years young and I don’t see any signs of slowing down at this time. I feel the hunt for me comes when I find that rough looking car and turn that sucka in 2 the bell of the ball! I differ from other small car dealers in the sense of actually making repairs to the units I move. Sure I could get more profit by selling a car that has obvious issues because I may never see that buyer again right? Wrong? People are crazy in the late 2012-Trust and believe that bruh. Once I sold a beautiful Chrysler 300 with dark tinted windows (Wardy trade mark), 20 inch chrome wheels and tires, blue xenon head/fog lamps, sub woofers and Kenwood everything and not to mention a fresh paint job. I sold this car below wholesale because the buyer was young and knew a family member. Dude got the car and was loving it because he posted 23 pics on his Facebook account like it was his girlfriend. All was good in the hood until the alternator went out on this car. Of course I had him sign an as is waiver on the car, as all dealers do, but he was able to have his mechanic go over the car before buying. Dude declined and rolled off into the sunset with his sounds shaking the streets on Napptown like a mini earthquake. Anywho, back to the alternator: Dude called me with his dad on the 3 way telling me how the car was a piece of crap and how I should return the money because his son is a broke college student. I asked what happened and I was told and then asked of me was I gonna do the right thing???? I calmly replied that the son had purchased the car and it was now his and titled in his name a week ago. I said the car was fine for me but I would purchase a new alternator and have it installed at my costs. I told them it’s common for small things to break on a car at any given moment. I also told them it’s not a good idea to run the car stereo with the car off for hours as a DJ both. That is when the fireworks began. I got cussed out and my life threatened because they claimed they got the car fixed and wanted $1200 from me or all the money. I tried to explain the part cost $40 and $25 to install and that they got over charged. They didn’t care because I should have told them the alternator was going out? 1st of all, how would I know that considering I just had driven the car to Chicago with my family with no issues???? I was unable to make the customer happy and I was disappointed considered I had put everything in the car to make it a great buy. Again, it’s just the nature of the beast. People feel comfortable taking certain liberties talking crazy to people because they think you are soft or not important. I thought about giving him all his money back, but he still wanted me to pay his mechanic all the money for nothing. I accept his anger but didn’t like the taste it left with both of us. I still enjoying selling quality used cars, but now I am more cautious and make sure I say this car is not new, does not have a warranty and depending on you treat it may not last as long if you’re not careful. I have also learned that it’s better to put a car on the rack at the shop before you buy to help avoid problems in the long run. I hope that hot headed customer doesn’t run into the wrong person in the future because I see bad things resulting from a negative attitude. I am Ward……

A smile.....

A smile costs nothing, but gives much- It takes but a moment, but the memory of it usually lasts forever. None are so rich that can get along without it- And none are so poor but that can be made rich by it. It enriches those who receive, without making poor those who give- It creates sunshine in the home, Fosters good will in business, And is the best antidote for trouble- And yet it cannot be begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is of no value Unless it is given away. Some people are too busy to give you a smile- Give them one of yours- For Jah knows that no one needs a smile so badly As he or she who has no more smiles left to give. I am Ward

Some reasons the men folk get tired of women (only the crazy ones!!!)

"You see us as projects you can 'fix.'" Women see potential. They see rough edges, and they want to sand them off. This makes us crazy. We don't want to change unless we want to change. We have chosen our car, hair, friends, home and hobbies because we enjoy them. "Your expectations are set by Hollywood and sky high." They've been fed a fantasy about romance and passion for so long that when a REAL act of love comes down the pike, he notices that the tread on your tires is low and buys a new set, it hardly even registers. "You're always looking down the road." Women tend to think about the next major step in life. Men tend to think about the next major meal...There is a female drive to get answers to questions like, "What ARE we?", "Are we exclusive yet?", "Are we going to get married?" that makes it seem like they aren't enjoying the now and only worry about the future. Trust me, eye got this one a whole lot without effort on the other end-lol! . "You use your emotions as a weapon." I suppose it isn't your fault that during an important conversation about the future of our relationship you start crying, but surely you understand that this derails the ability to pursue the issue at hand. To make matters worse, you want us to have a long emotional response rather then few words or silence. "You like to play coy." This game where you pretend you don't care and secretly hope we chase you down is for teenagers. Enough said. "You have a complicated set of double standards." I could write a novel on this one. We only need look at the example of going dutch on a first date at lets say "the dairy queen". You offer to split the check, and if we let you, you hold it against us. Really? You demand, quite rightly, to be in on all important relationship decisions, yet when we take you out and ask, "What would you like to do tonight?" you are angry that we haven't taken charge of the situation. It's a confusing set of double standards and antiquated rules that make it very difficult for us to know which move is the right one. Some women want the perfect date but incapable of planning one themselves. . "You want us to change, and then lose respect for us when we do." I have a cousin that met and married a woman who wasn't thrilled that he is a rapper. She was a bit threatened by the attention he received and his time spent pursuing this. She told him, "I really wish you didn't rap," and because he loved her, he quit. Within a few months this woman was confiding to her friends, "I'm a little less attracted to him because he quit rapping, and just did what I asked. Now, he just hangs out at home." Of course eye am just saying this from the limited # of people eye have encountered, but I am sure you can testify that I am right suckers..... I am Ward......

I saw the WNBA champs put it down.....

So I bite the financial bullet and paid a $100 for my tix and saw how champions do what they does! It was so loud in there that I still can't hear today!! It was a good game. I don't think most men realize how good these women are. Heck, it was at least 6 dudish looking females that- were very tall and scary looking! Nonetheless, I had a great time and I had floor seats too! Saw some celebrities and plenty of gay women-lol! I am Ward...

Museum of Science and Technology in Chicago!!!!

Had a great time in Chicago with the family. Saw live chickens hatch (took an hour), walked inside a live tornado, saw a huge submarine, a train that was nice and shiny, and plenty of other great things. I highly recommend all families to check out the science and industry museum. I am Ward......
