Gone for Too Long
By Urban Thought at 15 September, 2008, 2:09 pm
Please allow me to apologize for my absence. It would seem that life has consumed all my free time and I have been unable to actually blog.
I’ve also neglected everyone on my RSS reader. I haven’t frequented many sites in the past month (or should I say most of the summer).
Between traveling and my forever [...]
Free Write: Summer
By Urban Thought at 6 June, 2008, 5:33 pm
Summer is slowly creeping upon us and I can see the sexy already. I can feel the heat, the water, the sand that summer is famous for. Life is about to get bonkers. If you thought Spring Fever was something wait until you get a load of a blazin summer. At least that is how [...]

The Glory Of The Morning
By Urban Thought at 18 April, 2008, 9:16 am
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 [...]

MOM: Come on, let’s go!
CHILD: But I want to play with the flowers.
MOM: They’ll be here when you get back.
If you could only see the joy in this child’s face as he was playing in the grass, messing with what he thought to be flowers.
If you never made it out of the ghetto you too [...]
Summer In NYC
By Urban Thought at 29 June, 2007, 3:14 pm
Loud screams, crowds of people, the heat is on. It’s a fight. Everyone appears to be wet or about to be. No, no blood in sight but there is a gun involved. No one is getting hurt, unless it’s their ego.
It’s a water fight and the gun is actually a super soaker.
This is one fight [...]
London 2012 Logo Revealed, Disappointing
By Urban Thought at 6 June, 2007, 9:59 am
Londoners don’t like the new 2012 Summer Olympics and rightfully so. As the olympic committee tries to appeal to a younger audience they have disappointed many in the UK. I’m not there but I can understand the disappointment. Although graffiti is art it has no place in the Summer Olympics, at least not yet. At [...]

By Urban Thought at 17 March, 2007, 12:00 pm
While a Bronx blaze took the lives of nine people, eight of which were children, Mayor Bloomberg found himself in the warm climate of Miami. Did this sit well with New Yorkers who find it hard to believe that its own Mayor wouldn’t be on site lending his support, grief, and sympathy for the lives [...]

Dr. Scholl’s Where Are You? There are only a few things I don’t like about summer. One is those whom where tank tops and shouldn’t; two, those whom think its OK not to where a shirt outside. And three, the people who where sandals and shouldn’t.
Thank goodness for Autumn and Winter. These are the [...]
The Truth: Does it really hurt?
By Urban Thought at 14 September, 2006, 12:43 am
You watch TV and you see The Truth commercials and you ask yourself does it really hurt smoke a cigarette? I cannot knock someone for doing what they enjoy. But ask yourself how wrong can these commercials be? Are they speaking the whole truth and nothing but the truth? And after all these years of [...]
