LENT

So... It's Lent.  Yes... Lent.  I'm not known for my love of Lent (or holidays for that matter) but this year I was compelled to take on, and, in the process give up something with the hopes of becoming a better human by my good friend and ATL resident Shalaila Clark.  I know, I know... I missed the first (insert correct number) days of Lent but that doesn't count.  For the next 36 days I will write for Lent!! My words may not make sense, they probably won't be sober. Coherence is my goal and I will do my best to share my many, many, many ridiculous thoughts.  

 Tomorrow will be about my weekend (hilarious stories included) so check back for that.  Lent, man.  I suppose this is better than my record 27 other consecutive, successful Lent's where I took it upon myself to give up something I love... Church.

Our Online Image

As I sit here watching SNL & drinking what used to be Absolut Brooklyn , I can't help but wonder why people always find the worst examples of a persons character on the Internet.  YouTube videos publicize our worst moments to causal passerby's, Facebook ends relationships, the media airs nothing but the worst of the days events,  and Craigslist gets people killed...

The film crew simply countered with something along the lines of we give the people what they want to see. Is it human nature to seek out our worst moments? Or is bad news the best kind of news? One of the reasons why I left Facebook was because of my concerns over public image.  Is the person on that profile really me? Yes I'm tagged in the pictures, alongside my real life friends...

Is It Racist?

Today's post begins with a funny story: As we do every Friday, a few of my coworkers and I go to a nearby bar for lunch.  I was in the back seat and my 2 coworkers were in the front seat.  One coworker get out of the car early because he works in R&D and it was along the way to the parking space.  When he leaves it's me in the back, my white coworker driving, and an empty passenger seat.  On some 21st century driving miss daisy shit, he made a witty limo driver joke.  We laugh and pull into the space. As we're pulling in we're spotted and so begins the joke.  We get out and I hear "What the fuck is wrong with you guys.  You're so weird."  As my white driver begins to explain I cut him off and say, "black people aren't allowed to sit in the front seat."  I'm pretty sure I laughed the hardest at that one.  I'm still laughing..   But is it racist ? I'm all for saying what would normally offend people, in jest.  Comedy is t...
