A Class Divided

25 11 2008

It was only 45 years ago a black man had a dream… “I have a dream today!”, he said… He spoke up for what he felt was right, for how he felt the ways of the day deterred his quality of life…

“I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, and every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight; “and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed and all flesh shall see it together.”

His voice was heard, however 5 years after his infamous speech, Martin Luther King Jr. was shot dead.  Why??? because he had a vision? a vision of God’s glory across the land? a vision where people actually saw past the color of their skin? a vision where the place we called home was instead an oasis of freedom and justice?

It’s a daggone shame how discrimination and racism lie so deep in the veins of this country.  People can be so arrogant and condescending and for what??? why???… IT MAKES NO SENSE.. Right now you guys have no idea how I look, let alone my ethnicity.. (unless you know me, then again you may not even know)

Well anyway this brings me to the point of this entry… A day after the assassination of Reverand King, Mrs. Jane Elliot who taught elementary school in Riceville, Iowa decided she needed to do something.

This is the story of how she changed the lives of her students…

It truly is amazing how far we have come… but there’s no denying that we could all use a lesson from Mrs. Elliot

WATCH THE VIDEO AND COMMENT ON THIS ONE GUYS.





Always Sunny in Philadelphia

23 11 2008

This show is soo crude and raunchy, yet I’ve seen all 4 seasons and will probably continue to watch it. It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, is a show that’s a dime a dozen. In its 4th season on FX, the show offers great acting, great stories, ridiculous humor and a viewing experience that really can’t be described.. simply put absurd.

Click on the pic to watch a scene from the latest season finale
(after that stay on HULU, they’ve got a bunch of episodes from all 4 seasons)

19 11 2008

Where have I been… It’s almost Thanksgiving and I’m just finding out that The New Kids On The Block reunited.  Now I’m not gonna lie, back in the day i was quite the fan.  Looked up to the guys like brothers, gettin all the girls, great image, overall they defined ‘cool’.  I guess at first I thought, wow they’re all middle aged men who are just stuntin cause they’re going broke.. but then again it is 2008 and what better time to give it a shot.

hahahahah this whole thing really just takes me back

Weekend Update

16 11 2008

Welp I’m done celebrating the Jets win from Thursday.

What a game… Must say I HATE the Patriots… feels good to be in first place.

Anyway, I’m broed as crap, life consists of school, work, work, and the internet… oh the internet, so easily accesible, fast, and reliable… what would I do without you?

Probably lose weight, read books, and be a lot more healthy…

What else is new… not too much, possibly trying to upgrade jobs, seek some grails, pay down bills, hang out with friends who I haven’t been able to this semester…

By now a buncha you have already heard Kanyes new album, or at least most of it, he’s leaked nearly half of it… and rumor is that the entire things out in cyber space now…

I think I’ll just wait for retail to sit through the whole thing.  All I know is that it’ll prolly be….

this was the last one I post, promise.





HEARTBROKEN…

13 11 2008

Well at least i will be if the Jets lose tonight.. i swear i just don’t get it.. Brady goes down, their running games diminished, their defense is gettin old, yet the Pats still find ways to win.. *SIGH*  Now with Adelius Thomas hurt and the Jets finally looking like their on track.. it’s our division to take…right?

Always hearing stories of people catching heat at their local thrift shops.  Today the Goodwill provided me a pair a one of my favorites ever.  After shipping something to Houston, while walking over to the Goodwill and i said, “Man i need another pair of Bred 13s.” Low and behold…

P.s. Joey Jr. you can thank uncle Benny for not putting up a fight.
