MY TWO CENTS!!!!


This Chris Brown and Rhianna story is really starting to wear me out. I am tired of everybody's version of what happened. I am upset with the photo shopped pictures floating around of Rhianna beaten to a pulp. Why have our lives become consumed with this so much that someone would take time out of their day to come up with a fake picture with fake bruises. Come on people that is not nice at all and it's really rude. I know that with being a celebrity this is the part that is the ugly side of the fame, but let's keep in my mind that these are real people.

Today on the news they were discussing if his music was going to be pulled out of rotation...WTF. Some of his sponsors are trying to cancel contracts. This is really getting out of hand.

I do not condone domestic violence and this goes for both the man and the woman. Women should not think they can hit a man and he is not supposed to swing back. Everybody should keep their hands to themselves. I had a conversation with a female today and she asked me what I would do if she punched me in my face. I told her that I would whupp her bleep. She was shocked and I don't know why. I was told not to start a fight if you wasn't going to finish it.

I don't know what happened between Chris and Rhianna and neither does any of these people that keep making up their version of the story. I hope he is not made an example of for this.

Excuse me, but did you say you were a WITCH???



My close friends and I made a decision to start trying different things. We are beginning to feel the change of times in the night life of DC and there is really nowhere of interest to us.

Friday night, I attended a Happy Hour for a local gay newspaper. It was a different crowd, but with a few drinks and appetizers it was all good. I am usually not good at networking functions so I just pretend to be a celebrity; smiling, waving and giving short answers to questions.

Well, to get to the purpose of this blog let me tell you that I met a WITCH or a former witch...............aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh. My friend and I are having a rather interesting conversation with this guy and he begins to tell us about his past relationship. When we asked him how it ended he starts with "well I used to be a witch and I banished him from my life" I was trying to be as adult as I knew how because the was rather a serious moment for him, but it didn't work for me. I snickered and giggled as discreetly as I could. When asked what the banishing spell consisted of I thought I heard cat tails and mice, but it was the liquor because he said something about candles and feathers.

I think this experience classifies as doing something different for the next three months.......lol.

HAVE YOU EVER MET A WITCH? ARE YOU A WITCH?

LOOKING FOR LOVE IN ALL THE WRONG PLACES



I will never claim to know all there is about love and relationships, but I feel that through some of what I have experienced I have gained some valuable insight. The dating game is more complicated than ever in the gay. With the various means in which people choose to meet, hook up, or whatever they choose to do. People who are actually looking for love get caught up in the madness.

It seem as though everybody is online, cruising the park, strolling through the bath houses and mackin at the club. So it's really hard to know who is who and what they really want from you.

I was having a conversation with a friend that found himself on an adventure in a local bath house. Now I am not one to judge anyone's activities of pleasure. We all have our "thing" and shouldn't throw rocks while living in glass houses of our own. Well, this friend gave me the run down on what happened that night, but at the end of the conversation he told me that he exchanged numbers with his conquest and was kind of looking forward to getting to know more about him. (RED LIGHTS ARE FLASHING EVERYWHERE)

Of course I tell my friend that this was not a good idea. Again, I am not judging either party, but I would think that in those places you are there just for the nut. I have never been to a bath house, but it makes sense to me. Certain things you leave where you find it. I know that my friend is going to do what he pleases and that is fine. People should make their own decisions, but as a friend I have to stir his mind to think logically.

His argument was that he could have met him anywhere and my comeback was, but you didn't so let's talk real talk. Through his conversations he is finding some pretty cool things about this guy..blah blah blah. I just think that what people do in their spare time says a lot about who they are.

It's too early and may even be presumptive, but I know my friend is looking for love and I just don't want him to be blindsided after a few months of dating this guy. I will be there for him no matter what, but if I can help him avoid unnecessary drama I would like for him to listen to me and make a wise decision.

2009 COMMIT AND BELIEVE

2009 has come and 2008 seems like such a blur. For the past two years I have made the decision not make a list of resolutions. I know the areas where I need work and most of those same areas end up on this list EVERY year. So instead of taking the time to list out these things I have decided to just simply live and make improvements one step at a time.



I feel that 2009 should be the year to COMMIT and BELIEVE. Many people pray for and dream about many things without making any efforts to get their hands dirty in the process. Faith without work is dead and that’s what I know. If you are not going to put in work at some point in the process then there is no need praying about it. If anything your prayer should be, “God give me the mind to WORK for the things you desire for my life.”



My personal opinion is that it is time to believe God for the impossible and the unimaginable things that are pressing in our lives.


We are about to inaugurate the first African American President and some may say it was because of a vote, but I believe otherwise. The bible says that the first shall be last and the last shall be first. Yes, the people voted, but many many people’s hearts and minds had to be changed before they went to the polls; black and white.

Now is the time to decide what side of the line you want to be on. Do you want stand on the side of the blessed people or the side of the stressed people?



COMMIT AND BELIEVE!!!!!!!!

TO GIVE OR NOT TO GIVE...............Life after your death


After seeing the movie Seven Pounds I had a brief discussion which lead to organ donation. I was asked if I had sign the organ donor card with my drivers license. My response was no immediately as it has always been and I think I have been a little jaded by family members views and opinions about the subject.

I have always heard them say that if you sign that card and something happens to you the Doctors may not try everything in their power to save you. People in my life have said that if your organs match you might get the plug pulled on you....LOLOLOL.

I admire those people that have signed those cards, but I just don't think that I could do it.

MOVIE REVIEW: SEVEN POUNDS

If I am a good 45mins into a movie and I am still not sure what the hell is going on, then its not a good movie. I know there are some people that thought this movie was really deep and touching. I AM NOT ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE!!!!

When I heard that is was directed by the same director of Pursuit of Happiness I was reluctant to spend my money. Pursuit of Happiness was a bit better, but there was something really annoying about it.

I think I am going to have to add Will to my list of least favorite actors in Hollywood. The last few movies that I have seen from him were really lacking. I think Will takes these pseudo deep roles to make himself appear to be a serious actor. I don't knock his talent, but these roles are not showing his talent.

So he allows a dying girl to fall in love with him, commits suicide and gives her his heart. How mushy and full of crap? LOLOLOLOLOL He gives a blind man his eyes that he should have given his nose to.........LOLOLOL. I know that was mean, but did you see that nose on Woody?

For those of you who got what I didn't get out of this movie feel free to convince me that it was a good movie.

I CHOOSE TO SAY....................( The Vent)


How do you feel about people using the word lifestyle verses just saying this is my life?

Let me tell you how I feel! I don’t see anything wrong with using the word lifestyle when referring to how I live my life as a gay man. If Webster defines the word as a way of life that reflects an individuals preferences or values then what’s the big deal. My life is a reflection of the things I prefer.

Maybe someone can break it down for me because I don’t see the difference. I am living my life according to the things I prefer; my choices. No being gay is not a choice, but I choose my lifestyle. I choose what I let influence the way I live my life. No my sexuality doesn’t control my life, but it majorly influences it.

My lifestyle is my life……………………..
