Free Writing: Hate

I believe this to be my third attempt at free writing. I know I’m supposed to freely write without thinking of punctuation and spelling/grammar errors. I’m going to do my best to adhere to those guidelines. Subject: Hate Time: 10 minutes Hate is a strong word. I tell people that all the time and they [...]

The Glory Of The Morning

This is straight off the cuff. No editing. No spell check. No going back and rethinking thoughts. I may do this more often just to keep me going but if you don’t like it than so be it. If you are feeling it then holla for me one time. If you are feeling it greatly [...]

After The Holidays

After the holidays it always seems that there is more work on your desk than when you last left it. To keep up with that work I’m going to take a break from blogging this week. There is so much going on right now in my life that I cannot seem to keep up with [...]

A Man…

Free Writing: Haters All Around

NEW YORK – A judge gave a 240-year prison sentence Wednesday to a black man who took hostages in an East Village bar, injuring several with bullets and kerosene, while telling the patrons that “white people are going to burn tonight.” State Supreme Court Justice Maxwell Wiley told Steven Johnson, 39, that he had forfeited [...]

Love Is In The Air (And It Stinks)

It’s Valentine’s Day, whatever that means. Consider it the best thing to happen to the floral industry since soil and water became best friends. Of course, we cannot forget our friends at Hallmark for saying those special words for us that we can’t come up with on our own. I’m all for relationships, when they [...]

Election Day 2006

Election Day is finally here. I haven’t had a chance to vote just yet. After work is the best time to go. The good news is I won’t have to wait online. The bad news is there will be more election workers than voters. The people in my community don’t vote as they should. Two important [...]
