I am the final nail...

When the last leaf has fallen, winter is about to begin. When the last buzzer sounds, there is no more time on the clock. When the fat lady sings, it's over. Different fat ladies sing at different points in our lives, so we must always be aware of it. I think sometimes, I turn a deaf ear to the fat lady. But the problem with that is that an even fatter lady will come out and sing next...

I know it hasn't been the greatest of years, but it's important to be thankful for what one has...and I truly am thankful for all the blessings God has given me...esp mom. She got in a car accident yesterday, a pretty bad one. Her and my aunt. The car is totalled, she got pretty banged up, but the x-rays and ct scan all came back negative. So just some soreness, some bruises and a little shaky, but mom's gonna be A OK. Auntie's gonna be okay too, and I'm just as grateful for that. After you take a look at the pictures of the wreck, you'd think it could've been SO much worse...so thank you God for protecting them during the crash...





Thank you God.

I forgot to mention something sad I learned the other day. September 11 - We said we would never forget. They interviewed a bunch of people on TV and people didn't even know what year it happened anymore. Believe it or not, one person said, "September what?" So sad. We know all the scoop with entertainment and who's dating who, but can't remember the date of the biggest trajedy to take place on US soil in our lifetimes...when I think about that I think about my friend Kyle's blog...I've been meaning to include his post for about a month now, but never had time..and it seems quite relevant to post it now...

"On Good Old American Anti-Intellectualism

Albert Einstein was famous in his day, as famous as Paris Hilton is today. Albert Einstein said e=MCsquared. Paris Hilton says, “It’s hot”.

If you are an academic decathlon champion you are a dork. If you are a winning football quarterback you are a hero.

If you tell someone you enjoy poetry you are gay. If you tell someone you enjoy action movies you are a guy’s guy.

If you have a doctorate degree in philosophy you probably make $35K a year. If you have a bachelor degree in business and a frat-guy personality you probably make $100K a year.

I think it is getting worse and not better. Kids today can type “Moby Dick Book Report” into Google and take their pick of information to copy. Our attention spans are getting shorter and now you hear kids using text-message speak, LOL, OMG, ROFL!

Dumb is the new smart."
Kyle, I couldn't have said it better myself.

And to lighten up what has been yet another dismal week...

I have no idea why I'm smiling. I play ball w/ Ja and a bunch of peeps every Wednesday in LA. We were messin around w/ his camera and he caught this nice lil move of mine, ha ha ha.

And folks...here's the creme de la creme...better ask for your autograph posters now...
