• Looking For Love

    Many songs say “love takes time,” I’ve been waiting for a very long time, and have yet to find that person who can fill the emptiness in my heart. I’ve been blessed with the best group of friends in the world, and I know that no matter what…they will be there for me through the…

  • 2014 in Review

    On the whole, 2014 was a very good year. I’ve had a lot of fun times, more than my share of laughs, and have started to treat myself to a few little luxuries. Yes, I know that self-indulgence in excess is a bad thing, but this is the guy who hasn’t bought a Christmas present…

  • Happy Birthday to Me

    I have just hit one of the milestones in the age category. I am now 30 years old. I can no longer think of myself as a young adult, or even as an up and coming professional. I am here. I am at the age where responsibility drops on your shoulders like a ton of…

  • The Truth Will Out

    I have always lived by the idea that, “If you can’t be good, be good at what you do.” The idea behind it is that it is impossible to always do the right thing according to everyone else’s standards, but it is at least good form to do the deed so that you can point…

  • Why did I make you Black?

    Get off your knees and look around, Tell me, what do you see? I didn’t make you in the image of darkness, I made you in the likeness of ME! I made you the color of coal from which beautiful diamonds are formed. I made you the color of oil, the black gold that keeps…

  • Patiently Silent

    This is dedicated to the girl who changed my life. Thanks for being my friend. I could only wish we could be more. I’m no knight in shining armor. I’m just a scholar with degrees. Armed with my whit, my charm, and humor I defeat my enemies. I will fight in any battle, I will…

  • I Gave At the Office

    This poor fool got well and truly screwed. He thought he was going to help these ladies out by being a donor. Rather than just giving genetic material, he might have to donate child support payments for the next few years. The Kansas Department for Children and Families filed the case in October 2012 seeking…

  • My Self Reclaimed

    When I was a child, I was told that a man had to be strong. He did not show any emotion; did not let things bother him; and above all did not cry. He was supposed to be the model of stoic fortitude. Society depended on him to act instead of react, and he was…

  • Driving The Speed Limit

    A trooper noticed a car full of elderly ladies driving 22 miles per hour down the highway and decided to stop them. As he pulled them over and approached the car, he noticed that they were all wild-eyed and shaking. He got to the window and asked the driver “Ma’am, do you know why I…

  • Hankering for Hoe Cakes

    All my friends know that I love to cook. I see it as my therapy, and a tasty way to exercise my creativity. I will cook anything, but some days I just want comfort food. I just want some fried chicken, Macaroni and cheese, Greens, and some Hoe Cakes. Yes, you read that correctly, Hoe…
