False Profits
There I was, minding my business trying to enjoy my time off in Vegas. I woke up insanely early because my body is still adjusted to the central time zone, decided to watch something on TV to pass the time. I scrolled to the TV guide and thought I was about to watch something interesting on the History channel. I sat down and left the remote across the room, then the program changed to this guy…

Best Read When High
If you find this content interesting, share the post with a friend.
*Hopefully the post is just as sensible sober too though There is a lot of information available. Objective facts, subjective opinions, outright lies, fantasy, fiction and so on regarding pretty much every topic. In this weird moment of piecing things together I thought “maybe we’re all right”. Not in the sense of any of us individually having the correct answer to stuff, but collectively…

Playground Rules
When I was a little kid, loyalty and partnership were not expressed terms amongst my friends. These were the unwritten rules that we operated on, and when broken always led to someone getting punched or body slammed. We were all taught turn the other cheek, but we all failed that class because getting some “get back” was far more important than asking “what would Jesus do” in that moment. In…

Over The Top
To be honest, I don’t know what the threshold is to be over the top with something, but I have been told my views on religion can be considered over the top. Maybe I’m oblivious, but I feel like my views are pretty realistic. Live and let live, no human is better than the next, virgins don’t have kids and God isn’t a jacked, bearded, White man…or even a human for that matter. Those may be some of…

My Compass
When I was talking with my buddy about our respective stances on religion, we mainly spoke about life experiences that got us to where we are. Nothing tragic, just nagging thoughts, observing the natural world and being open to a different path really. I do know of people that have renounced their respective faiths because of bad experiences, but outside of talking shit and watching preachers…

Hell Nah
I had a really good conversation with a friend of mine not too long ago. We don’t talk often, but when we do, they’re marathon conversations. Neither of us subscribe to an organized religion, we don’t really claim to be spiritual either, but that seems to be the commonly accepted term for “I believe in God, but not much of the stuff said about God in holy books”. That conversation made me want to…

What Else You Got?
Not sure why I thought of this but I used to be stationed with this guy that seemed to thrive on asking dumb ass questions. He once asked me, “would you rather get punched in the dick by Mike Tyson or eat Roseanne’s sweaty ass, and choosing neither means you die”…WTF right! When I was 11 years old, Bill Clinton was running his first campaign for the White House. The U.S. was dealing with a few…

Necessary Evils?
When I was a wee tot living with my mother, we didn’t really have many of the things we were supposed to have. We had some cool stuff, but at the price of not having necessities sometimes. I understand why that was the case now, but geez, it wasn’t something I could make sense of back then. In one of those parental moments, I was telling my daughter about life “back in my day” as she looked out…

Save The Date
For the first time in God knows how long, I spent the New Year awake playing games and cracking jokes. I don’t recall giving too much of a damn about celebrating the new year, but not because I wasn’t appreciative of it. It’s just another day to me, but I can appreciate all of the hope people have when it comes up. That aside, I still don’t think anything of these new year celebrations, and I…

Snake Oil
Valentine’s Day is upon us, which means I have thoughts on relationships that won’t go over well 😁 Sometimes it’s funny looking back on what I used to think was wisdom but turned out to be mostly bullshit. Yup, right out the gate with the cuss words, but it’s not going to be too wild of a post this week. I think the cool thing about being young and well-adjusted was the amount of optimism I had…

Old Man Rant
Ever since I was a small kid, I held an affinity for cool and sometimes quirky cars. In addition to thumbing through hip hop magazines at Walgreens, I’d look through Motor Trend or Car and Driver faithfully. Really, any print magazine about cars or hip hop I’d view with no desire (or cash) to buy. Instead, I’d buy some gummy bears or a pack of gum as my way of being an actual patron. This of…

Who Am I Again?
I’m gonna take a break from the horrors of Israel for a minute and do a bit of self reflection. The month of love (and my birthday) are upon us, so this is my palate cleanser post or something. Don’t get me wrong, there’s a lot left in the tank in regards to Israel and Palestine, but I’m going to let this horse rest peacefully…I’ll beat the next one as needed.  I believe deep within this chill,…

Never forget...right?
I was watching this documentary about how John Gotti was convicted, and I was amazed at how many times they missed. Regardless of how good your lawyer is, I imagine it to be pretty hard to beat a RICO charge if they want you for it. Yet, he was able to beat his first RICO case, but barely. All of the writing was on the wall that he was guilty of everything they claimed he did, I mean bodies in…

UN-Do it
When Nintendo first came out, or rather, when we first got a Nintendo, I noticed there weren’t many games that two people could play at the same time. You had the ability to take turns, but not really play with someone. As a result, people got good at certain games free of human competition and that kind of shaped how they viewed the system. When 2 player games became popular and we were able to…

Money for wars
Hopefully by the time this post is published, everything contained herein is no longer an issue. However, my confidence is low on that.  The early portion of my life was interesting and often shocking to people when they hear the details of it. For reasons that I assume now were purely due to mismanagement of funds, when it was just my mother, brother, and I; we experienced days in which we ate…

Good to be back
Adjusting to new environments is something I’ve grown accustomed to doing. I’m probably good at it, not sure if that’s a pro or a con though. My approach is to pay attention to what’s around me, learn the area through exploration and keep my mind open as much as possible. It’s easy to get lost in expectations, the opinions of others, and comparisons to previous comfort zones. Doing so will almost…

Farewell...For Now
When I first started writing this blog, I assumed I’d do it for a year and then call it quits. Then in a strange fit of inspiration, I wrote the first 16 blog posts that came out in about two weeks. By the time the first month was published I had written about 30 topics. There was no direction, just sharing my thoughts for a while, but that inspiration made me want to write more music. So, I took…
