I like this.  Read it. It's especially cogent after having watched a clip of the rapper Waka Flaka explaining why he isn't interested in getting his GED.  Especially :).

Racial stuff

The etymology of the n-word...from bad to good?  I'm leaning more towards no.

I think I like her...

There's nothing special here, just a young kid who I think is cool and not necessarily because the New York Times does...I think moreso because she seems to be herself and is being appreciated for it...

My first blog

So I consider myself old though a 40 year old would consider me to be young.  I don't know really what to write but if this is any remembrance of my college days, it reminds me of Xanga.  I don't know if people use that site anymore or if it exists.  Well there you have it.  I feel like I'm beginning again and there's nothing really for me to say.

I am 25 and I want to rule the world.  I'm too old for these things, but maybe it's still possible.  I would like to be an iCon.  Sorry Steve, I know the world is kind of swagger jacking your ingenuity right now.  Even me I guess.  Rest in peace wherever you are...
