why don't you GO?
I have to get something to eat after this. I can’t do this to myself. just go. that’s a line from one of the new BRAND new songs the band and I are working on. “Go” is actually the name (I say it aLOT in the song, so why not?) I’m no where near completion, but the song of course, inspires me. from my point of view, i see many people who don’t take advantage of...

my night, last night.
great rehearsal. probably the best and most productive one in a looooong time.
and this:
thank god it was a wednesday and not a friday or saturday, I would have gotten home just now. so tell me if this makes sense: it’s 185 dollars to get it out of the pound and 115 dollars for a fine? didn’t I just pay a 185 dollar fine? I know we are in a recession but are...

[1]This is a friendship that evolves slowly, each learning gradually how to understand and appreciate the other. Although these two are completely different, they make a wonderful team once each friend learns to accept the other’s unfamiliar style.
[2]These friends have genuine admiration and respect for each other, but they need to learn to take turns commanding and giving orders.

“Be yourself, don’t take anyone’s shit, and never let them take you alive.”

yes.
what a surprise. don’t know what to think. i’m on the fence about this situation. I don’t think we can endure anymore “nonsense” for lack of a better word. this foundation was fragile to begin with and if we are taking the steps to make it stronger WE ALL have to make it stronger. a new way of thinking has to come into play. things just need to be different. this is a...

interesting hap'n.
SoulSomeThinG929: you're an ethiopian jew?
me: black jew.
me: black native american jew.
SoulSomeThinG929: iriquois? algonquin? cherokee? seminole? sioux? lol
me: the third one.
SoulSomeThinG929: why does every black person i ever talk to tell me they got cherokee indian in their blood?
i know for a fact that a lot of them have seminole
not cherokee
me: well i can't speak for them..
SoulSomeThinG929: because florida was a spanish territory
me: they prob think cuz they have long hair...
SoulSomeThinG929: so black people escaped to florida and mixed with the seminole indians
not the cherokee indians
to escape slavery
me: oh.
SoulSomeThinG929: i studied slavery
i know all about that
me: i see.
lol.
SoulSomeThinG929: i work across the street from the african burial ground
and i don't like how people say barack obama is the first black president and talk about slavery
his father is from kenya that's not in west africa
all the slaves were from west africa
and those are the ones buried in the african burial ground
and the people in the south
and in the caribbean
it's not the same
at least state the facts
people are misinformed about our nation's history
one of the supreme court justices speaks gullah which is a pidgeon language that is mixed with west african slang loan words
and gullah island is off the coast of s. carolina
i'm a nerd
i put you to sleep
me: i see.
SoulSomeThinG929: i'm sorry dwayne
me: i was just taken aback.
SoulSomeThinG929: why?
me: i wasn't for that..
lol.
but i understand..
people need the facts.
SoulSomeThinG929: i wanted to be a teacher
me: why aren't u.
SoulSomeThinG929: but i can't force the truth upon people who are programmed to understand lies that they were taught in their early years
me: u prob could be a better history teacher than the one i had..
true..
SoulSomeThinG929: and black and minority studies is not a big subject
not too many people register for it
they take it as an elective thinking it's easy
but it is actually very extensive
that's why they don't do as well as they should
me: this lady wrote me up in for asking her why to BRIEFLY touched on the civil rights movement in american history. i told her that just because she didnt know much about it doesn't be we have to suffer..
why we*
SoulSomeThinG929: lol
SoulSomeThinG929
me: she was pissed.
SoulSomeThinG929: did you know rosa parks was a member of several organizations before her incident on the bus?
she knew what she was doing
and mlk was in on it, too
it wasn't like he felt that she should be treated fairly
they were all underground societies working towards civil rights until things happened then they used the incidents as opportunities
me: sounds like a good plan.
SoulSomeThinG929: its a good strategy
marcus garvey was a little too radical
me: if we kept that up..
SoulSomeThinG929: and malcolm x was a little misinformed
me: we'd be alright.
SoulSomeThinG929: but he realized it much too late
his rep was tarnished by then
me: hm.
SoulSomeThinG929: the naacp was not always proactive
sometimes the naacp wouldn't cooperate with other organizations
so don't give them too much credit either
me: never did..
they seems to just hop on something when it was publicized or known, instead of taking action..
SoulSomeThinG929: yup
me: on a local or national front..
SoulSomeThinG929: they were never leaders
me: they try to get me to join that forever..
SoulSomeThinG929: it's better to join a community group
then you can actually see the progress made
me: why do i have to pay to make a change..
SoulSomeThinG929: and avoid all the bureaucracy
you shouldn't
me: when i can do that for FREE>
and that's what i did.
SoulSomeThinG929: lol good
okay....brittany looks sad
me: lol.
the REAL SoulSomeThinG929: did she talk your ear off ?
me: yes.

but it wasn't bad. I wasn't ready for it. no warning. just went right on in. wonderful. ppl believe in something multifaceted that has POSITIVE meaning and be passionate about it. we LACK passion sometimes folks.
i need more buddies on iChat who aren’t space fillers. (rolls eyes)

"Annie getcha gun!" Woman killed during KKK... →
just heard this on the radio (do ppl still listen to the radio? that should be in our top news) you know it’s truly bad when you have absolutely no reaction to this. I was like “oh. ok” not for them killing anyone, no one has that right and I hope they burn in hell for it. but you’d be a fool not to think that with the new president elect, these groups will go to great...
