24 Season 1
I wrapped up Season 1 of 24 just last week and now on Season 2. Besides Season 2 “Day 2” already having a lot of moments of “Holy Shit!”. Here’s a brief run through of me and Season 1. Jack Bauer could get Hilary Clinton to suck his dick if the state of the country depended on it. Is there anything this man can’t do?? I’d gladly die in battle with this...

For Muslims, growing numbers, and growing fears →

Anger begins with madness and ends with regret.

2pac - Me Against the World Album Link
I haven’t listend to this album in ages but that’s no matter because listening to it now has much more revelance than it did to me back then. I’ve always been one of those “I’m east side till I die” idiots and truly never cared for the asshole 2pac was. I…

The Lonely Planet
I wonder, Earth…..All alone like no other around you. The same but different. Even with your closest companions, one is too cold, the other a bit hot and the others, well they exist and live in the same house. All with an existence, condition, determined by their position over the solar land. But oh no not you, you know you’re unique. There’s no other like you. With the mind of...

Toronto Poised to Hike Recreation Fees to Find... →
For all those who take full advantage of recreation programs, love pulling the fire alarm during someone’s else’s final exam, or like to get married and then quickly divorce. It’s going to cost just a tad more. Love how Ford holds a promise. No hike in taxes! Everything else however……

Why Chinese Mothers are Superior →
Reading this article brought a lot of childhood memories on how my rents raised me. The training was definitely different. Although of West Indian heritage, the article more or less still breaks into the mind set of my parents and how they approached my upbringing. Looking back at things I’d have to say they were right on a lot of it. Article also discusses how a lot of Westerns just...

Through my eyes: Why Westernize The World? →

What I Remember 1992 -1996: Era of I Don't Give a...
I start with this era first because it’s the one that I remember so fondly. Pop culture had its biggest influence on me during this period and still resonates with me till this day, and although many can view music and society as growing ever more commercial during this time, there was a “big fuck you!” attitude going on. Everything that was bad, was popular and no one knew where this unrest was...

Evil
Always I hear about the evil of the outside world. Even when people discuss personal evil they don’t truly explore what is evil. Unless only in an extreme case, one is often dismissive to the true presence of it in ones daily life. A lack of understanding is no ones fault but a lack of recognition is. Evil of course, is just a word to represent that which is unwanted and when applied...

Goodbye "Nigger" →
Changing the voice of the past to suit the sensitive issues of the present. How are future generations to determine a true sense of who we were if we treat all matters as delicate.
Empires of the past practiced similar liberties with their history books, often recording only the brightest of their societies and military conquest. Observing the history of the last century, this train of thought...
