Two different America’s
We’re definitely living in two different America’s. I mean this country has always had so many identities over the years and you have to ask yourself…”Has anything really changed?” There’s rich America and then there’s the rest of us. Surprisingly these two America’s have nothing to do with race to an extent. You can have…
Face it…Oprah is trash!
In the “People vs O.J. Simpson” Cuba Gooding Jr while portraying O.J. had one of the most real lines in a TV show ever! “I’m not black, I’m O.J.” The scary thing is, I’m sure that many black celebrities feel this way. One in particular that comes to mind and who I know definitely feels…
My grocery shopping method…
Grocery shopping goes along with this lifestyle change. It’s probably one of the most important parts of this journey. You have to eat. There’s nothing wrong with eating. Yes…you won’t be able to eat as much, but don’t let that fool you. You will still spend a coin. I’ve mentioned how I enjoy grocery shopping…
Why I’m leaving my bariatric program
As much as I hate doing it…I had to do it. And “it” is leaving my bariatric program. After a year and a half, post-op…they’re tripping; like REALLY tripping! I haven’t met with my surgeon in six months. The reason I bring that up is this past Tuesday I was supposed to meet with my surgeon…

90’s hip-hop raised me…Part 3
….in conclusion! “C.R.E.A.M.” – Wu-Tang Clan (1993) – Another self-explanatory song just by the title alone. GET THE MONEY!!! I’m all about my coin and being comfortable.

90’s hip-hop raised me…Part 2
Let’s go.…. “Can’t Truss It” – Public Enemy (1991) – One of the many old-school hip-hop tracks that’s still relevant today. You can’t trust shit anymore, nothing or no one. This was the song that brought this to my attention. To this day…I don’t trust a damn thing. Like they say in the song…”just watch…
’90’s hip-hop raised me…Part 1
I’m a true ’90’s kid to the bone. As much of a history buff as I am…there’s no other era that I would’ve wanted to come of age in. The ’90s were such a fun time. The fashion, the music, the movies, TV shows…just everything going on spoke fun. Hanging out at Northland and City Center…

Thank you Mr. President….
Trust and believe, this will be the first and only time that you will hear me address that fool as “President.” The only reason I decided to use that undeserving title is because I truly want to thank him for a few things. I was thinking the other day about all of the great things…
