2008.

It’s an election year. For the first time, America may have a woman or a minority in office. As a 27 year old black man, I am glad to be alive during this time of history.

America has green issues. The environment (The Truth Is Inconvenient), the economy (C.R.E.A.M.), and immigration (Green cards).

I for one hope and wish that we as young people get out and vote and stand up for ourselves. As cliched as it sounds, we are the future.

Get your ass registered to vote.

This is NOT funny.

Martha Brockenbrough seems to think that Miley Cirus of Hanna Montana will be the next Britney Spears.

Now, I don’t have any children (yet), but, I do have nieces, nephews and a God Daughter that loves Hanna Montana. I’ve seen the show once or twice and it’s NOTHING like the first time I saw Britney Spears.

Despite that, the main concern is how messed up the Media and Hollywood has become. The Media is just looking to ruin lives of people in the lime light. I think it’s horrible.

So, my dads truck got broken into at Delaware Park. The passenger side window of his Dodge Pickup was broken by the thief and they ran off with some items he had in the car.

You can imagine how much anger this caused my father.

My mom went online to get some quotes from Glass.net. One of the companies recommended was Union Auto Glass Of Delaware. My dad called to check on the quote and give them business. Well, he had a hard time trying to get through over the phone (poor reception on Union Auto Glass’ phone).

After finally getting through on the 3rd call, he was greeted by “Mike”. Mike then proceeded to cuss my father out saying “No, I don’t want your fucking business”, and he hung up on my father.

My father did not deserve this type of treatment. So, in an effort to get the word out there about Union Auto Glass of Delaware horrible customer service, my dad asked me to blog about it.

So, here it is. For all the world to see. Union Auto Glass of Delaware is horrible. Do not go to them for your auto glass repair needs.

I will also place this blog on my Myspace page.

Dear Microsoft:

When we first started seeing each other, I was 10 years old and you were on version 3.1. I remember the day Dad came home with a new computer! All I knew at the time was the Tandy computer with a snowman, painting program.

Dad set you up on the dining room table and we booted you up. I remember having to help mom and dad because they had no clue! First thing we did was go straight to your game section where I discovered Solataire for the first time. Mom taught me how to play that day.

It was THAT day when I fell in love with you, Microsoft.

Fast forward to today and I can’t believe how much I have fallen OUT of love with you.

It just seems like now, ever since Windows ME, you just don’t CARE anymore. I mean, you REALLY let yourself go. I guess I should’ve seen the writing on the wall with the whole “blue screen of death” fiasco, but, like most people in love, I was blind.

There was SOME hope with Windows 2000- XP SP2 and I BELIEVED in Longhorn.

Now, here we are, I am 27, you are now called “Windows Vista”….. and I can BARELY tolerate you.

All of the sudden, you just started to worry about glam and glitter.

I’ve had my eyes on Apple for awhile. I know that hurts you, but, I’m just sick and tired of things breaking, frustration and hopelessness.

I have

• An Xbox 360 with intermittent red rings
• A Zune that was working, but after a horrible update of the Zune software, doesn’t
• A Treo with Windows Mobile 7 (my 4th or 5th replacement from Verizon!)
• ….and WINDOWS VISTA (come on, you KNOW Vista is horrendous).

What am I thinking about? I deserve soooooo much more.

So, Microsoft, what once began as a blossoming and promising love has wilted away.

Please, for the sake of a love lost, PLEASE get it right again!

…because I don’t think I can hold off much longer from biting the apple.

It’s definitely NOT me, it’s you.

You probably use it every day but how well do you
know your Internet?

Ever wonder how all this foolishness got started in the
first place and why? How big it really is?……

We all want things in life that seem impossible to reach. What makes others achieve their wildest dreams while others let it pass?

Guess I should know better than to ask a rhetorical question. There are no short-cuts, no 10 step easy to follow guide, no advice that will make it magically happen; basically, there is NO guarantee that you will accomplish your wildest dreams.

Your only hope is….well, hope.

It’s like death. See, I hope that there is an afterlife or a heaven. I hope there is more to death than just *BAM*, LIGHTS OUT! I mean, why else would we live? Why feel emotions and why continue on? Well, I continue on because despite all I have been through and will go through, I still take the time to marvel at the simple beauty of everyday life.

See, taking the time to live & love life gives me hope that there is more.

Look around you. Seriously, stop a moment, take a deep breath and realize that one day, all that you see will be just a memory. Well, it’s a memory until you pass away and then what? If you have a child, a girlfriend/boyfriend, husband/wife, family member/friend, pet, etc, take some time to marvel at the beauty of this person and seriously appreciate that. For when you take the time to revere in the beauty around you and you show those around you that you love them, those memories will never fade.

I realize that my dreams may never come true. Am I ready to throw in the towel and hang it up? HELL NO. Honestly, God Willing, that day will never come for me. But, if I have to accept the loss, while it may be hard, so be it.

For moments like watching the wind blow through the tree in my backyard, playing with my nephews and nieces, solving a hard problem and realizing the greatness of the mind and God’s creations or spending time with those you love are the moments that matter.

When I die, I want to leave knowing that I gave my all. I want to leave knowing that I left nothing on the table. That I am worthy to be loved and I was who I was meant to be. I want to feel like I cherished life and didn’t let it pass me by. For just living for the sake of living is like waiting to die. How about living for the appreciation to live? Living like (as cliched as it sounds) like today, it all could be over.

You will never be without pain. Without pain, how would you know love? As they say, everything has it’s opposite and without the other, neither would exist. Yin and Yang, Soul Mates, Right & Wrong, Hot & Cold, blah, blah, blah….

Funny thing is, never in my wildest dreams did I imagine things would make so much sense.

….well, at least to me. For you, this all could just be a bunch of ranting and raving.

Man, just stay happy. One day, you will not be here.

Some of these are better than others, but, they are very creative.
