Yes VinhBoy died. My car, “VinhBoy”, or as Mike Pintor puts it, Vinh B “Hand” y, died. I really like that car even though it was a complete bucket. I learned how to drive stick in it, and I also learned how to do basic car maintenance on it, since it had loads of problems.… Continue reading vinhboy died

Love is… Standing in 20 degrees weather so the dog can pee, Driving 30 minutes out of my way just to say hello, Cleaning up a mess I did not make, Giving up poker, :roll: Ball room dancing every other Friday, Wearing clothes that makes me look gay. But its not so bad. Some days,… Continue reading what is love

Today is a national holiday celebrating Martin Luther King. If I owned a company, today would be a holiday. I have deep found respect for this man. I am very moved by his non-violence approach. And I am amazed by his ability to stand up against the forces of hate and prejudice. Yet, I often… Continue reading What would MLK do?

Yet, I don’t think anything good has ever came out of me doubting myself, or other people doubting me. It’s always the opposite. I admit it, I am a dreamer. Some days I feel like… Continue reading a moment of doubt a lifetime of regret

Men with square jaws and well-defined brow ridges are seen as good short-term partners, while those with more feminine traits such as a rounder face and fuller lips are perceived as better long-term… Continue reading Love is a genetic defect

I found this news article on Yahoo! today and it blew me out of the water: Where’s the outrage over black-on-black killings? I have always thought about this every time I hear news stories about cops killing “black” people. It makes my blood curl to see countless numbers of black leaders come out of the… Continue reading black on black killings

There was a discussion on slashdot about “social networks” and privacy. Some people pointed out that old taboo of putting too much “personal” information online that can harm your chances of landing a job. Although I do acknowledge the veracity of that statement, I feel that in my case, I rather my employer knows everything… Continue reading what is privacy

I saw a news story on this thing called the “One Laptop per Child” initiative. Although their “mode” of delivering world peace is some what of an odd ball, I think it is a brilliant idea (on the count that these kids won’t use these laptops to watch porn). The internet is filled with knowledge,… Continue reading innovative ideas

I have come realized that life is so much more enjoyable when I am actively involved in learning something new. Regardless of what it is, if I am learning something new, it is more fun than not. A lot of people seem content with living off what they already know. They enjoy repeating the routine… Continue reading learning the joy of living
