Ok, so a good long time friend of mine is paid child support by his ex-wife. he is a vet, he is a good guy. His ex-wife who sends the small children over looking and smelling dirty voluntarily gave the children to him 5/wk a couple of years back. They are emotionally troubled. The ex wife lied about multiple things, including concealing an pregnancy and not seeking any medical care, and binge drinking during that time. She told her ex-husband in mediation she makes $75/ wk in tips. When run by good friends who have worked in the restaurant industry their entire adult lives, they looked at one another and started laughing. When told where she worked they said even the bus boys don’t walk away with that and that a hostess/server will come away with $70 on a bad night, about $100 on a regular night, maybe $130 on a good night. She also consistently appears to have money for unnecessary items and entertainment and is behind on child support in spite of not paying rent.
Well she is now at BJ’s Brewhouse-she was at CPK for 1 1/2 yrs. It iswrong though, unles you are on the verge of starving to walk away from your financial obligation to your children. I figured peoplewho eat out frequently moght have an idea about tips.

My thyroid was removed 20 yrs. ago; hence, something in my brain tends to hyperfocus on certain details. I am getting treatment for this and aim every day to rise above it. However, it comes out when my boyfriend, who says I am the one, are talking. He has a daughter. Wouldn’t a man be wary of exposing a child to this kind of thought process? One detail – his wife died 7 years ago because she did not talk about her problems and overdosed on prescription drugs. I appreciate your advice and comments! Thank you8.
The Viagra supported grandpa has now entered the young singles bar scene, and besides being raised, he is raising eyebrows by his insatiable hunger for young women. With a big pension to fatten his wallet, he has become the king of sugar daddies and the idol of high maintenance bunnies. Some of the singles bars are flooded with old men on Viagra, and the young guys are standing helplessly by watching their women being taken away.
Grandma has been devastated by her half senile husband going out every evening to the singles bars and leaving her alone. He doesn’t come home until the crack of dawn and is too exhausted to do anything but sleep away the rest of the day. Since grandpa has been on Viagra he hasn’t made love to his wife even once. He claims that she is too old for him and is no longer appealing. She told him if he doesn’t stop running around with all the young bunnies she will lock him out of the house. He says that if she did that he would move into the motel near the singles bar and take his Viagra with him. Grandma has no alternative but to sit home and cry, and attend to her vegetable garden
.
Viagra has broken up more homes than alcohol, and it is even more deadly. It has destroyed the relationships of the most vulnerable part of our society, and that is our senior citizens. Our government cannot let this to continue, but there is little that can be done. Outlawing Viagra would only create an underground market. There is some that say that the police should raid the singles bars and give grandpa a drug test, if Viagra is found in his system he should be forced to enter a rehabilitation program. Others say only grandma should be allowed to have possession of the Viagra, and should only dispense it when he is willing to make love to her.
Part of the blame falls on the young bunnies that are willing to make love to a man that is more than twice their age. They fully realize that they are breaking up a home, and making some old lady miserable. I don’t advocate violence, but if grandma entered the singles bar and hit her husband and the young bunny he was with over their heads with an umbrella, maybe grandpa would stay at home and use his Viagra in a more responsible way.

When people think of Hollywood, the list can go on and on about whom their favorite actors are.
However, when people think of “Black Hollywood,” they can probably list their favorite black actors on one hand. Why is that?
So many talented Black actors today do not get nearly as much recognition as they deserve. They have perfected the art of the profession by proving that they can be versatile and can adapt to any genre.
Allen Payne has proven this repeatedly. The ladies love him for his charm and good looks and the brothers can relate to him because of his “keeping it real” attitude.
Don’t call it a comeback because the brother has been around for years. This veteran actor has mastered his craft and deserves all the accolades that come his way.
Some remember him from his early days of acting as the wisecracking Lance Rodman on the “Cosby Show” and “A Different World.” Others may remember him as the southern – love interest, Jason, to Jada Pinkett-Smith’s Lyric in the movie “Jason’s Lyrics.” His most memorable role that fans of all ages know him best as was Gee-Money in the 1991 hit movie “New Jack City” where he was the right-hand man to Nino Brown played by Wesley Snipes.
This talented brother stars every Wednesday night on TBS as C.J. Payne on Tyler Perry’s new hit sitcom “The House of Payne.” Allen Payne plays the lead role in this comedy where he is a loving husband and father whose world is turned upside down when his wife’s drug addiction causes the family to move in with his aunt and uncle.
Once his wife has been admitted into rehab, fatherhood takes on a completely new meaning for him. Fans can appreciate Payne’s latest role portraying a strong, Black male figure whose number one priority is taking care of his family. Since Hollywood has a way of portraying so many Black actors in a negative way, “The House of Payne” portrays a Black man in a way that has become obsolete in our society today.
Tyler Perry is definitely contributing to shining a positive light on Black males and fatherhood by using an entire Black cast.
When Payne was asked if he thought having an all-Black cast was important, his response was, “I think to show life as a reality is important. I don’t think any of us live in an all-anything world anymore. I think it’s important that art reflects life.”
Payne, 38, was born and raised in New York where he began acting. During his earlier years when most Black males are at a very influential stage, Allen began acting as one of the ways that helped keep him out of trouble.
Rumor has it that he turned down a chance for lucrative, steady work on television to pursue a career in features. Allen Payne has consistently chosen the right roles and has proven that he is definitely a force in Hollywood.
Payne says, “I’m going to do my part and just try to leave a legacy of a brother who worked hard, who understood who he was and spent a lot of time trying to help others reach that same point in their lives.”
