Procrastination allows you to find the best things sometimes. So, naturally I have to share this with the masses. Everyone and their mama knows about that trick Sallie Mae. If you don’t know her, well, you are a very fortunate individual. Here, rapper, Dee-1, a New Orleans native and former math teacher celebrated his desirable […]
Tuesday Food for Thought
For the past two weeks I have been waking up around 5:30 am. I do yoga and/or a more high impact workout, shower and hit the books.

White on White Crime Terrorizes Waco in Twin Peaks Massacre
The above title would be the headline if crimes committed by White people were presented with the same level of alarm and fear as crimes committed by Black people. Nine men were killed in a gang fight involving knives and guns and what I find disturbingly not surprising is how the media downplayed this overt […]
