My Grand-daddy
I have always been someone who believed that it is greater to serve your community, than to serve yourself. I have always been inspired by the legend of my great-grandfather. He was a community leader and head of the NAACP in Kingstree,SC, he was responsible for getting the mail to run through certain areas of his town,as well as getting the train to run through his town, the train is, to this...
Faith
Most people believe in God without question, and they base it completely on faith without a drop of tangible evidence.However, If someone says they received a message from God, or a child believes in Santa until they are 15 or if someone has a great idea but we don’t understand it, we dismiss them and call them crazy, immature or what they believe is impossible. All these concepts are based...
Happy New Year to the Winners
Many people talk about how blessed they’ve been and how happy they are to be alive to see a new year, but I can’t help but feel differently. I feel like the world has continuously kicked me when I was down and as soon as I was able to get back on my feet life sucker punched me, tripped me, then kicked me in the ribs again.
I’ve had opportunities that I let pass me by,...

Inequality as a Catalyst for Dissolution of...
All relationships maintain a minimum level of of inequality. Those inequalities are what make romantic relationships worthwhile and also are what differentiate them from friendships, where something as simple as missing some phone calls can destroy that relationship, however in romantic relationships there is a tolerable level of inequality. Social Exchange not only create these inequalities, but...

The minute I heard my first love story,
I started looking for you, not knowing
how blind that was.
Lovers don’t finally meet somewhere,
they’re in each other all along.

Flash websites have to be usable too you know!!!
I have come across too many flash based websites lately that ignore the concept of usability. Being a developer who is just getting into the game with Flash development I find it hard to understand how so of the simplest concepts of interaction on the web are being ignored.
I found a few sites(who shall remain nameless, to protect the developer) where it seem like the agency who created it opted...

I'm not trendy...I'm Stylish
Too often these days I see everybody dressed the same…and everybody does the same thing the last guy did. I guess I just grew up different, but when I was growing up we did our best to make sure we had our own style. So I’m not trendy in the any sense, I’m stylish and I don’t just mean in fashion I mean in life in general, I’m my own man at all times, I wear what I...

Obama vs McCrystal, Part 2
Continuing on from my last post…
I wonder if behind close doors Obama is like other black men in the fact that he doesn’t take alot of nonsense from other people. I often wonder if Obama wnats to punch someone in the mouth, like Joe Wilson for example. I wonder if he wanted to confront him mano-a-mano.
I think he does and I think McCrystal would be in trouble if he ever wanted to...

Obama vs McCrystal, Part 1
After watching CNN this morning and hearing the comments of General McCrystal towards our president I’m left with two parallels. The first is that on wondering whether or not the White House is going to be fair and take this issue with the grain of salt it deserves, and do they know Obama is a black man from the southside of Chicago(he don’t play that).
I don’t understand why...
