happy thanksgiving!
we have much to be thankful for over here at the BuzyFamily and we would like to take the time to thank you all for reading us, loving us, supporting us, or possibly even hating us. sometimes life's not long enough but it's still too short to not be thankful for every second. trust.
hope you guys like the new song. not exactly thanksgiving, but it def puts me in that state of mind.

Happy Thanksgiving!!!
For many Americans across the nation Thanksgiving is a time in which the family comes together over a wide variety of rich and flavorful foods to be one and give thanks for their many blessings. It is a special time of the year in which friends and family, most of which often do not come together in such large numbers during any other time in the year, reach out to each other, share thanks and just kick it for good ole time sakes. When I think of Thanksgiving I get the image of a family in a big house, kids running around, the aroma of all types of delicious foods in the air, the men in the living room watching the game and having drinks and the ladies in the dining room sippin drinks and talking bout the kids and the food....its the onset of a very nostalgic time of the year, a period in which many lasting memories can be made.
However, as America has faced many changes over the last eight years, this holiday season may very well be a very tough, sad, and challenging one. It is no surprise that many American families haev lost homes, jobs, and savings. The economic depression has been devastating for many of us across America. Its something that we are constantly being reminded of in the media and it seems like the country will need a miracle to rebound from such a depression. In all of these things I wish to encourage us as a people, to learn to be a little be more interdependent, share, and care more for our neighbors. Take responsibility for your neighbor. Invite a friend who you know has no local family to share the holidays with, feed a homeless person even if you just bring them out a plate of food...but if we take positive approaches to "these difficult times" we can reach out to and make a impact on the lives of those who suffer most during a time of year when people should be joyous instead of depressed and hopeless. Much love, blessings and health to everyone during this holiday season!
Be Blessed

It's Been Awhile.........
Unfortunately I have not contributed to this blog as much as I anticipated but to be honest I have been going crazy sending out resumes, filling out job applications, and speaking to friends and family about potential job opportunities. On top of the job search I have been studying for the MCATS. The other day in the while sitting in the chair at the barbershop, my barber told me to wait and see how everyone will start calling at the same time. Well, he must be a damn psychic because yesterday I received two back to back calls for interviews. The job search is looking a bit more exciting despite the economic situation. So many people keep telling me that people arent hiring, instead they are firing and I have a few friends whose positions have been threatened by the economy. One thing that is for sure is that if I land a job, that pays well, and has excellent benefits, I am truly blessed. It shall come to pass....

and they wonder why new yorkers are so stressed out
another day another terror threat. don't get scared, because that's what terrorists like. but just take this as a reminder that time waits for no man and tomorrows not promised so if shes still alive shoot a call to your momma. ok that last part was a murs quote, but you get the point.

welcome to new york city
spotted new knick cuttino mobley on my way to the train last night. he had just finished shopping at saks with his mom and female companion and was hailing a cab up to bloomingdales. way to stimulate the ny economy cat. no security, no entourage, just a normal guy out spending thousands of dollars. so i welcomed him to new york as he was getting into the cab and went about my merry way. seems like a nice guy, i hope that heart issue they are talking about isn't anything serious. go knicks.

new york knickerbockers
the new york knicks have bartered their best players along with any chance to win in exchange for $28 million in cap space, make two blockbuster trade. gone are jamal crawford and zach "z-bo" randolph, soon to be replaced by al harrington, tim thomas, and cuttino mobley. mixed reviews, but i'm all onboard the orange and blue train and the kool-aid is oh so good!

damn, it's been over a week since i blogged...
but figured this was as good a reason as any to get write. so the roots got into a bus accident in paris. bus actually did a complete flip and dudes just got a couple of bumps and bruises. good deal. but waaaay more important than that - the roots will be the house band for "late night with jimmy fallon" when fallon takes over for conan (who is taking over for leno) next year. seriously, this is the most awesome news i've heard all week. i still won't stay up consistently to watch this show, but it will definitely be dvr'd regularly just in case. two thumbs up nbc!

stop telling me you have news and then informing me the states are too close to call!
if they are too close to call then stop pretending to call them!
btw, it's patriotic to drink bacardi during the election right? puerto rico being a commonwealth and all...
in other news, i'm keeping my fingers crossed on the new york senate race. honestly paid no attention to it due to ny's shitty political behavior over the previous year or so, but it's pretty damn important.

with the pressure of the nation on his shoulders this afternoon, barack obama took a step back - and drained the three. that's right. obama took some time out to clear his head with a game of basketball on chicago's west side with a group of friends. i love this man.
and if you don't like that, you don't like nba basketball!

where o where has our little bush gone?
i'm humored by the fact that dubya hasn't made any public appearances in 5 days, even cancelling a scheduled white house briefing. sounds like mccain is trying to get as far away from bush's shadow as possible. don't blame him, but it is amusing to see exactly how far the republicans have fallen.

for all you impatient voters...
eager to get results. concrete results will not begin to come in until after 6pm when indiana polls close.
btw - here's a quote to keep in mind today
"if everyone is thinking alike then someone isn't thinking"
- George S. Patton (1885 - 1945)
remember, we're all in this together. republican, democrat. liberal, conservative. black, white. we all have the right to choose who we vote for. and today's winner will be the person that was democratically chosen by the american people (well the electoral college, but that's ideally the same thing. notice the emphasis on ideally.) try to show respect and restraint when expressing opinions today. we all want the same thing - a better tomorrow. we might not all have the same opinion on how to get there, but the best we can do is cross our fingers and cast our ballot. again, we're in this together. regardless of who wins. let's act like it. a nation divided will not stand.

this was supposed to be published about 2 hours ago but blogger erased it, thanks
just got in from voting. stood in line for about an hour. and loved every second of it. no complaining. no grumbling. all smiles. very proud of my parkchester neighbors.
also proud of dixville notch and hart's location, two small new hampshire towns who kicked off Election Day 2008 at midnight. these tiny towns have given obama an early lead in the popular vote, combining for a 32-16 vote in obama's favor. this is particularly impressive, given a strong history of republican support from the two towns.
now its your turn. vote. si se puede! yes we can!

barack obama casts his own ballot with his daughter by his side. a proud moment.
bring your kids with you to the polls. stress to them how important this is. make sure that this monumental turnout we are seeing is not a one-time thing. the children are our future. make sure they understand their responsibility.

What Ever Happened.......Alf?
I came across a website called Hulu.com which I thought was pretty cool because it has a collection of different current and past video clips. While browsing the video clips I could help but notice that they had an extremely large collection of Alf episodes...now if im not mistaken, watching Alf takes me back to like 11 years old maybe younger lol sheeeit but it also makes me think of other shows like Thundercats, Heathcliff, Fraggle Rock, that show with the little white girl whose dad was a glowing stone, In living color, You Can't say the on television....What ever happened to all of those classic shows...Name some others...I know I had a few favorites...Does whats on air now compare to what we had back then? U tell me...Be blessed!
