Summer In NYC

It’s a water fight and the gun is actually a super soaker.
This is one fight [...]

Finding Love in the Big City, Part I
06.22.07 | Permalink | 5 Comments

So in a city of 8 million possible love connections (well maybe 4 million as that eliminates women and children) I am starting to wonder if I’m just too picky to find love. So what does love look like - that last embrace or googly-eye thing as your subway pulls off or grasping your partner’s [...]

06.19.07 | Permalink | 7 Comments

If it isn’t one thing, it’s another. Bottled water may be bad for your teeth according to a news report, I listened to last night on CBS2NewYork.
As summer hits we all look to stay hydrated. Water has always been the healthiest substance for your body. But leave it to some scientist to tell you that [...]

I know being a father is a hard task sometimes. But why would you ever put your baby on the ground and then turn your back to him/her?

Living in the hood, you’ll find many things which shouldn’t be found in respectable living places. I’m not sure what respectable living entirely consists of however, after living with white folks for three years out of my life some things I see in the hood, throughout my building, and outside for that matter, I know [...]

Knock Knock: Go Away!
06.14.07 | Permalink | 5 Comments

I’m not sure if Jehovah’s witnesses in my neighborhood actually work. Maybe they get paid for knocking on my door. Who knows what the deal is? At any rate, I wish they wouldn’t step foot near my residence. I want to put a sign on my door that says, “Don’t Knock Here. I don’t want [...]

2012 Olympics - HIP HOP Does It Again
06.11.07 | Permalink | Comment?

With Hip Hop under attack for misogynistic lyrics and content, artists that seem to be “faking the funk” and a seemly lost generation of kids whose apathy only matches the amount of platinum teeth they have in their grillz or their success equaling how many BM’s or BD’s (Baby’s Mommas/Daddies) you got, [...]
