I know there is always lots of hype from these young rappers that claim to be a pimp.  Lets be real.  Pimping ain’t about making it rain.   That ain’t pimpin that’s simpin.  Let me repeat you might call yourself a pimp because you got lot of girls, but your simp if you spend money on these hoes.  So guess who just got pimped!!!  LOL, these hoes are the real the pimps for taking your cash out your pockets.

So now lets get back to the roots and find out how the pimp game really goes down.  So let me share with you a guy named Iceberg Slim.

From Wikipedia:

Best known as an author of gritty tales of street life and hustling, Iceberg Slim (Robert Beck) sold over six million copies of his books, the most popular being Pimp: The Story of My Life. Since many authors before him had seen fit to record and release spoken word albums, Slim followed suit in 1976 with Reflections, which found him reciting his lurid vignettes over suitably funky backing from the Red Holloway Quartet. The street-tough pimp persona projected by Slim proved highly influential to hip-hop, especially two artists who paid tribute to him through their own names, Ice-T and Ice Cube. Slim passed away in 1992 at the age of 73.

So you wanna find out how the real pimp game is?  Wanna know why people like ICE-T and Bishop Magic Don Juan honors.

Quotes from Iceberg Slim’s book:

A good pimp doesn’t get paid for screwing. He gets his pay-off for always having the right thing to say to a whore right on lightning tap. I knew my four whores were flapping their ears to get my reaction to this beautiful bitch. A pimp with an overly fine bitch in his stable has to keep his game tight. Whores constantly probe for weakness in a pimp.

I fitted a scary mask on my face and said, in a low, deadly voice, “Bitch, are you insane? No bitch in this family calls any shots or muscles me to do anything. Now take your stinking yellow ass upstairs to a bath and some shut-eye. Get in the street at noon like I told you.”

A pimp must be skilled at playing on a woman’s vulnerabilities. In fact, he assesses her psychological state to determine if she is a good candidate for exploitation. The true talents of a pimp however, are in his ability to keep his women happy, command money, and portray a deep mysterious and somewhat mean demeanor about him, one that conveys the message not to cross him. He is then said to be “cold-blooded,” able to turn off any warm feelings and loving affection in exchange for certain emotional and physical cruelty

There are several rules that one must be willing to follow in order to be a successful pimp. The most paramount rule in the pimping game is, “the pimp must get paid”. This means there can’t be any “shame in your game

THis is some beautiful pimp shit. So i highly recommend you check out his book. PIMP: The story of my life. It’ll change the way you think about your approach with women.  This is what I mean when I talk about the ALPHA MALE type shit.

You want to buy a new ride?  Thinking about trading in that clunker.  Tired of your talking about your hooptie?

Well if you thinking about buying a car then now is the best time to buy.  Most dealers are trying to get rid of their 2009 year inventory to make room for the 2010.  On top of that some of these dealers haven’t met their end of year sales goal.  All this means is that you as  a buyer has the upper hand.  It’s time to get busy.  Read over these tips to prepare yourself in getting the best possible deal on your brand new whip.

1. Get a second opinion for the hype. Used car dealers will bombard you with every adjective under the book to sell you on a car—sporty, thrifty, fast, and etc. Don’t take their word for it. Instead, find someone you know, whether a neighbor, a colleague, a family member, or a friend, who owns the same make and model of the vehicle, and ask them for their opinion.

2. Do a background check. One of the most unethical, but legal, things someone can do to you is sell you a used car that’s been in a flood (and sort of repaired), or one that’s had 10 previous owners (none of whom repaired it). To be sure you don’t fall victim to this, track down a history report, including a clearance check on the vehicle title. You can even get some of this information from the seller, simply by asking why they are selling it. You’d be surprised what beans people may spill.

3. Examine for past damage. Used car dealers may also try to peddle a vehicle that was wrecked in a major accident. It’s amazing what autobody experts can do to repair a car’s exterior. So don’t go by the outer appearances of a vehicle. Before you buy it, make sure that it does not have serious damage to its frame, which it would have if it was involved in a crash.

4. Call up your trusted mechanic. Used car dealers, especially the big lots, will say they put their used cars through a “100 point inspection,” or something like that. Once again, a second opinion is in order. Get this one from your own mechanic. He’ll be able to tell how good a shape the car actually is in. Also be sure to ask him or her how often the car had been serviced. A good mechanic can even gauge that.

5. Research for recalls. Needless to say, a used car dealer may sell you a car that’s actually under recall in his mad rush to get the car off his lot. So be sure to call the car manufacturer, or visit their Web site, to see if the vehicle has any active recalls.

6. Avoid the leftover lemon. Along with recalled vehicles, dealers may even perpetrate something much worse on you—sell you a lemon. (By definition, a lemon is a car that’s still under warranty, which has such major problems that, warranty or not, it still cannot be fixed in a reasonable way.) The best way to avoid this is to research in Consumer Reports or the various automobile magazines, which all have yearly reviews of every make and model on the market. They’ll tell you whether a kind of car is known for being a lemon and prone to breakdowns.

7. See through the old paint and bait. Along with performing their “100 point inspection,” car dealers may shine and wax a used car—even repaint it—to hide dents, dings, and rust spots. A keen eye, though, can see right through this.

8. Take the test drive. Once you’ve done all your research, homework, extra credit, and everything else called for in the first seven steps, then comes the fun—the test drive. Drive the car for as long as its owner or dealer will allow you. Then you’ll get a better feel for how the vehicle handles, accelerates, brakes, and otherwise suits your tastes (or doesn’t).

9. Be wary of the pushy seller. At any stage of the game—from the moment you first talk to the seller to the test drive—be careful if the seller gets pushy. Any dealer or seller who is in a rush to move a vehicle should set off bells and whistles. Why the rush? Are they hiding something? In some cases the seller may just be excited to sell you the car—and actually happy for you—but in many other cases, they may be up to something. Better be safe than sorry.

Remember your the alpha male, the king of the jungle.  You make sure that you leave happy and satisfied.

And Finally don’t be afraid to “WALKAWAY” if you have to.

Many people believe that the art of flirting is something that you either have or you don’t. This isn’t true at all. The art of flirting is something, which can be mastered by anyone with an interest in learning how to flirt. It’s a practice-makes-perfect skill, which is learned from the inside out. Everyone masters the art of flirting differently, but there are some basics of the art of flirting which might help you to find the flirt within and bring her out to play.

The first thing to know about the art of flirting is that it’s something, which can be done by anyone. You don’t need to be the most attractive person in the room (and beauty is a subjective quality anyone) and you don’t have to be the smartest, most athletic or most outgoing either. The art of flirting is designed to bring out the wonderful qualities that are unique about you and to let them shine so that others can be drawn to them. In this way, the art of flirting begins from the inside. Knowing the qualities you like about yourself and using them as a basis, the art of flirting is an art of quiet confidence.

But you want to know what to do to let others know that you’re a terrific person right? The art of flirting is an art, which is primarily non-verbal. They say that the eyes are the keys to the soul and you should use yours as a starting point for the art of flirting. Have you ever been glancing around a room, bored and disinterested in what was going on around you when a stranger caught your gaze and held it for a few moments? For most people, this causes the heart to race and the mind to start whirring, wondering what it was about them that caught someone’s attention. People are drawn to others who are attracted to them and you can convey your interest at many levels with the different types of looks you give to people. The art of flirting will incorporate many different types of gazes. If you are in a public setting and just want to catch the eye of a stranger, meeting their gaze and holding it for a few seconds then letting it go followed by meeting it again is the best method. This quickly conveys that you are interested in flirting with them and you will be able to tell from their reaction whether or not they share your interest. More aggressive flirting is done through giving the object of flirtation a look, which says, “I am thinking dirty things about you”. Sometimes this is done with a lingering gaze, sometimes with an up-and-down-the-body glance and sometimes with a stare, which suggests that you are hungry and looking to devour them.

In addition to eye contact, the art of flirting makes use of other types of body language. Positioning your body in such a manner that shows you are open to communication is crucial to the art of flirting. Touching the other person is also a big part of the art of flirting, but it should be done cautiously. You should read the other person’s body language to determine whether they are welcoming the signals you are sending out. You’ll be able to tell if it’s appropriate to touch their arm or lean your leg against theirs while talking. The art of flirting consists of a combination of conveying your intentions while reading the signals of the other person. A successful combination of these two things which stems from a foundation of casual confidence in your own self worth makes the art of flirting enjoyable and fun.

Watch out for lies when online dating. There are certain things which people commonly lie about within their profile. The most common include: Height, weight, age, and occupation. Also be aware that people may embellish a little bit about themselves to make themselves sound better. For example, they may over exaggerate their travel experience, college education, etc… As mentioned before, even some pictures can’t be trusted. Some people use old photos of themselves because they looked better back then. Most important, be aware that some people lie about their relationship status. Married people have been known to state they are single on online dating sites.

Be careful about sharing your email As mentioned, most online dating sites allow you to use an anonymous internal communication system. Make sure you take full advantage of that. If you do start to feel comfortable with someone and would like to share an email address with them, don’t use your regular email address. Set up a free email address that you use strictly for your online dating activities. You can easily obtain one through yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc…

Be careful about sharing your personal information It’s easy to get sweptup and excited about the possibility of a new romance. However, the anonymous nature of online dating sites makes it just as (if not) more important than ever to protect your personal information. Don’t share your full name. Never give out the details of exactly where you work, or go to school. You can say something like “I work at a major downtown law firm.” If they ask, “Which one?” Just politely tell them you’d rather not say until you get to know them a little better. Most people will understand and respect your decision to not share. Don’t ever give out your address. Be very careful about giving out your telephone number. This is especially true of your cell phone number.

Don’t get too serious too fast It’s best to just keep things on the lighter side for a little while when you first meet someone from an online dating site. Keeping things friendly and light will help you to get to know the other person a lot better than just diving into a relationship.
Using an online dating service will help you to find your ideal person for a relationship. By using it to its full potential you won’t have to just “settle” for someone.Unfortunately, there are some people of questionable character in this world. You’re just as likely to meet someone who is up to no good at the gym, bar/club, or even at work as you are at an online dating site. The only difference with online dating sites is the level of anonymity that is provided for users. It’s a dual edge sword. It helps protect the innocent and allows those of dubious character to get away with a little more. These pitfalls and dangers weren’t mentioned to scare you. Online dating sites provide safe, fun, and exciting ways to meet people. Just keep these tips in mind and use common sense. The majority of people on online dating sites are legitimately searching for someone they can connect with, have fun with, and maybe even fall in love with. Maybe that special person they’re waiting for is you!

You know having a good sense of humor is the fruit of life, and this is especially true when it comes to picking up on a girl no matter where the location. Make them laugh, and I guarantee, that you are very close to getting their phone number and even to getting them to go out with you.

But, as we all know, making them laugh, is easier said than done. Precisely for those who find it difficult to come up with something funny to say, I am adding some funny anecdotes and wise cracks that you can memorize and then use in those situations where you need to get the girl in front of you to laugh.

1) The Prescription:
Did you hear of the lady, who walked into the pharmacist and asked for arsenic?
The man behind the counter asked in wonder, “What do you need that for?
The lady calmly replied,” to kill my husband.”
The pharmacist was taken aback,” Are you crazy? Do you want to get us both into jail? And, anyway, why do you want to kill him? Go to a counselor. Get help for your marriage.”
The lady paused and from her purse she removed a set of pictures of her husband and the wife of the pharmacist in some very creative postures.
The pharmacist looked at the snaps, put them down and smiled,” lady, why did you not tell me that you have a prescription?”

2) The Tip Book
A wife calls out to her husband, “Have you seen the book, 101 Tips to Live for More Than a Hundred Years?
The husband sheepishly replies, “I burnt it.”
“What?” the wife shouted out,” why?”
The husband whispered back,” Because your mother wanted to read it.”

3) Range of Food
Looking at his wife fry meat balls in all kinds of shapes and sizes, Tom tapped her on the shoulder, “Why?”
His wife turned,” Because you asked for a variety of food.”

4) Mushrooms
Tom was picking mushrooms from the forest floor with his wife, when she picked up one and showed it to Tom,” Is this for eating?”
Tom smiled,” Yes. As long as you do not cook it.”

5) Driving Around
Tom greeted his wife when she returned home,” So, my dear, how was your first time driving all alone?”
His wife smiled coyly, “Do you want to hear it from me or read about it in the papers?

6) Drama
A couple are watching a film in their local theater when the wife snuggles close to her husband and points to the screen,” Do you think that they will get married in the end?”
The husband sighs,” Yes. These movies always have bad endings.”

7) The Library
Tom visited the local library, walks up to the librarian and asks, “Do you know where I can find the book, the Supremacy of Men over Women?”
The librarian conducts a short search on the computer and looks up,” you will be able to find it in the science fiction.”

So you’ve got that old, worn out, ripped up recliner and your girlfriend or wife is pushing you to throw it out but it is hard because you have so much history with it plus it’s still really comfortable, what do you do? You could bow down like a little girly man and toss out the one true friend youever had they never judged you, was always there to support you during those tough times, and who always knew the right things to say…or you could give your old buddy a facelift and convince your significant other that rejuvenating the life of your chair is good for the environment and good for your soul and if she doesn’t let you keep it than she is no better than an Iraqi murdering, environment hating George W. Bush. Here’s a few tips to and tricks to turning your old chair into a newly improved pimp chair.

Fixing tears or holes in the chair upholstery is easy. All you need to do is go to your local shop and find the same fabric that will match the original color, or if you want to go really wild pick a different color that will also go with it, and then fix the patch or material with the proper adhesive or glue to fit. The fun of this is that you can be as creative as you want to be with the colors and styles, completely redoing the look of your chair to fit your proper pimp look and style.

The next trick to pimping out your chair is lighting—yes, that’s right, I said lighting. Pick out a set of fluorescent colored flashing hid lights or led rope lights or just find some old Christmas lights to wrap around your chair and bam, you done. You can even take it to the next level and add a modulator so that the lights flash really fast, really slow, or even fade in and out to really give it some effect. Your chair will be the centerpiece of the room, less of a chair and more of a flashing work of art.

Last but not least you need some storage. If you’ve got the space and the know-how, you can build your own little storage or even freezer compartment in the bottom of your chair that you could store drinks and food and keep cold with some ice. Besides that, you could just build a simple but effective cup holder into the arm rest, preferably one wide enough to fit a beer in a koozie. And with that you are set with your new pimp chair for laying around getting fat on a Sunday, or any day for that matter.

Hidden Video Cameras: Update

Video cameras were, for the longest time, the stuff of dreams. Super spies had them and master villains. Then, reality caught up with fiction. The problem was at first that they were very expensive and just about the only ones who could afford them were the police and the very rich. Now, hidden video cameras are inexpensive, produce an extremely clear image and are small enough to be hidden anywhere.

Security cameras have no match when it comes to proving your point. Whether you want video proof of someone’s pet doing something it shouldn’t, pictures of someone doing or saying something they shouldn’t or proof that someone near and dear to you is doing something with someone they shouldn’t be, a hidden video camera can prove invaluable. Nobody can argue with a video recoding.

The business environment is really tough right now. Profits are slim or not there at all. If you own your own business, you cannot afford employee theft. One well placed hidden security camera can end all that. An excellent example is someone I know. He owns a liquor store. A lot of stock was disappearing. Try as he might, he couldn’t find where it was all going and who was doing it. One day, he installed a hidden video camera in the exit sign above the rear door. That day, he caught the janitor taking some bottles out in a garbage bag. End of theft.

The hidden video cameras mentioned above are called dvr cameras. They are wireless and have their own on board memory which records to something called an sv card. They are motion activated. If animals or little kids might be around, you can program it to avoid movement in the lower quarter of the field of view. When you think you’ve got your prey imaged, you take the camera to your computer and download the memory.

What you’ve seen here is just the tip of the iceberg of what you can do with hidden video cameras.

Probably the greatest feature of these devices is that you don’t have to worry about placing them where a radio signal can get through to a central receiver of some sort like the first wireless devices that came out. Locate it, hide it, plug and play. Kids and pets can be programmed out.

The imagination runs wild at the prospects of where to hide them, doesn’t it? How about in wall clocks, alarm clocks, exit signs, light fixtures, coffee makers, water coolers or candy bar displays?

Warning! These hidden video cameras will not prevent a crime, just record one happening. To stop crime, use cameras that are highly visible. That’s the subject for another article.
