The Media is BULLSHIT!!!
EVERYONE!!! STOP ALLOWING THE MEDIA TO TELL YOU HOW TO THINK, JUDGE, AND LIVE!!! Has anyone else realize that every story portrayed on the news is one-sided? You watch FOX news and get their story, that's one side.... You go to CNN, that's another side... And you get on the internet, and there is nothing but bias and anger, and smart-assness. No one is going to be completely right, or giving you the whole story... And yet we fall victim to all the mediocre and small bullshit news, when there are more important things to be mad at... But what do I know right?

My opinion IS NOT and WILL NOT be popular, and I am ok with that. More to life than one trial.
Im going to keep this short and sweet. The Trayvon Martin trial ended with George Zimmerman being found not guilty. I don't know all the details of what happened, but the part that people are really stuck on is the fact that Trayvon was 17 years old when he was killed... Now, I do not know, nor will I try to understand all that happened between George and Trayvon, but whatever happened happened, and Zimmerman is walking free... This is all I will say about it: I haven't nor will I give a shit about the trial, the life lost, the life misrepresented, or anything in that way... All I know is that the people who presented the case in representation did a great job with representing their client. This is why George Zimmerman is walking free right now. But with this whole thing. I don't care. I didn't care, and I still will not care... Why? Because there are more problems in this world than Florida and their fucked up judicial system. What about the real trouble that's going on in Brazil? What about things in Mexico? How about the community/town in South Africa that wants to remain segregated. How about how much taxes are being taken away from me and other blue-collard workers that work to our bones for what?! What about the fact that no one wants to blame society. What happened to the argument that music or video games make kids to be "bad." No one wants to see it as a "wrong place at the wrong time/product of society meeting of wills." We just want to see it as a white man getting away with murdering a black kid. GROW THE FUCK UP, AMERICA! There are more problems in the world... So yeah. I don't care... and if you care so much, then it might be time to get the fuck out of Florida, or just not go down there... But if you do, then just go and be you, and don't do anything to give you a bad wrap, or get you killed.
P.S. This is also a show of how and why the media is becoming useless... We have ESPN trying to whore out to America Yasiel Puig to be the fans choice for the All Star game... We have people on [name your favorite news media outlet] force feeding us one side of every story that passes their desks. We want to get mad and say that "justice was not served" when justice did exactly what it was suppose to... This is what happens when you vote these people in. So, think about that... Another thing that pisses me off is how, all of a sudden, all these celebs have something to day, and they are all trying to out twitter each other. No one cares about your celeb fed opinion... just shut the fuck up and play ball. Also, as a black man, I don't care... I made it through the early 90's. I REFUSE to go back there, and start trying to cry "racism." What needs to happen is that everything needs to change... but until then, I am going to lay my fat ass down, because I have worked long and hard all day. goodnight.

Been A While!!
So yeah, I am alive. I just have not found anything worth writing.I tried to find something, but I was coming up with something that wasn't holding water... So, I decided that tonight, I will force myself to talk about something, and that something is the fact that the Mayor of The City of Atlanta has gained a lot of respect from me, and a LOT of Atlanta Falcons fans... In this interview with one of THE local sports radio station, Mayor Kasim Reed did something that no politic would dare to do... He spoke candidly about his love for the city of Atlanta, and the sports franchises that are here. He also talked about his involvement in the local tradition of the "Peachtree Road Race" ran every 4th of July from Lenox Mall all the way to Piedmont Park, via Peachtree St. here in Atlanta. He also said something near the end of the interview that will allow him to get re-elected as many times as he possibly can... If you listen to the interview, he was asked about the property that is wanted for the new Falcons stadium (to be opened in 2017).
He talked candidly about what would happen to a church in town. Click on the second link on the link above to hear what he said, but to paraphrase, he said that he respect Friendship Baptist Church, which sits directly south of the Georgia Dome, and that he has a nice offer to give to the church for the property to build the stadium on that site. He continues and says that if they refuse the deal, instead of using the political muscle to move the in anyway, he will just move to the north site about a block and some change from the Georgia Dome on the other side of the Georgia World Congress Center (GWCC). That is a HUGE move by any politician to respect ANY place of worship. If it was a masque, I am pretty sure he would have the same respect for the place of worship just like he has shown to one of the landmarks of Atlanta. So, the project is still on no matter where the stadium lands.
This is surprising because a lot of people want it where its projected to be. I personally want it there because of the fact that the stadium will be accessible by MARTA (Metro Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority) still. The Georgia Dome currently sits on the MARTA line and makes it easy to get to and from the games without being bogged down by the famously skull splittingly annoying Atlanta traffic. So, as one who loves taking MARTA to Falcons games would love to see the sight be a close to the new stadium as possible... But if its not there, then I am fine with either a small walk, or a quick ride to the stadium.
Wherever the stadium is built, it will be mind-blowing, and a GREAT addition to the city.

This is a small look of what the inside will eventually look like. It has the city in the background, the video board will be a top of the stadium ring where the roof will open and close, and it will be naturally ventilated as the wind move through the outer structure or skeleton of the stadium. Its going to be sweet, and I have already claimed this seat with the view. Seriously. I called my ticket guy and asked for first dibs to THIS SEAT!
This is what it will look like on the outside:
It took a little while for me to get use to, but the more I look at itm, the more I like it. It will DEFINITELY stand out in the city, AND also in the nation as Atlanta will be fighting for those Superbowls, and Final Fours, and CONCACAF matches, and football National Championship games, and this stadium will definitely prove that Atlanta is committed to making every run possible for these events every year. So, regardless of where the stadium will lie, this stadium will be amazing. Whatever happens with Friendship Baptist Church, I will respect them for their fight. If you want to learn more about the new stadium, GO HERE, and read the proposals, watch the videos, and look at the pictures! Have a great night guys!
OH YEAH!!! 2 months social media free... BOO and YAH!!!

Let me tell you what the dumb ass did...
As I was walking back from the mailbox the other day, I saw a collection of notes on the ground. Nothing out of the ordinary, it was more or less a collection of notes written by a single person noting how dumb he can be. It was really interesting reads, and I will gladly share these notes to you! Here we go:
The first note was written this way:
Dear Mouth,
First and foremost, it was SO good to see you again. It has truly been too long! I am glad to see that you and the family is getting bigger, and it was great to meet your wife Uvula as well! I do want to apologizing for intruding so abruptly the way that I did, but I had a crash landing that had to be made due to do faulty thoughts. But none the less, thanks for your hospitality, and I hope that you will continue to be well!

That was a nice jester I thought! At least he was upfront and honest about his "unscheduled visit." But, the second note was a response to the first. And this is how it read:
Dear Foot,
Thank you for stopping by! And no need to apologize for your abrupt stop-in, I understand that it happens at times. Who knows, Maybe it was time for me to realize that I cant think on my own! HA (God damned Brain still owes me $30!)! But anyways, It was great to see you too! You look like you are getting better with that barking thing you had going on... That was REALLY weird! Anyways, I was glad to see pictures of your family, and to learn that you are going to rehab for that smell. We must do this again, but not anytime soon... Me and the family are going to try to take a nice long vacation to this new museum that opened up called "Thinking Before Speaking." I hear it will take a long time to master, but I like a challenge! Thanks again, and my best to you as you continue to recover, and the best to your family.
Sincerely,
Mouth
They were really helpful in my recovery from the same problem this guy had... Basically, not every girl "has drank the water." and its not really ok to assume or ask. But if you do ask, be sure to do it in respectful way, and not just blurt out some bullshit same question like "DID YOU DRINK THE WATER TOO!?" I am a full on retard, and no excuse will make it ok. The one thing that I did was apologize and meant it. The young lady is obviously upset with me, and I don't blame her if she even hates me! I had a moment of dumb-assery that can make me look bad in someones eyes. As I sit here thinking about that, I don't worry about it much, because, I am not allowing it to bother me so much that I hate myself, like I usually would. I have mentioned this before, and will continue to mention it. I cut off all emotions from women, in the since of liking, loving, and lusting after them, and that has helped me move on in a way. Not saying that I don't care, but those "precious and delicate hearts" that they harbor don't necessarily mean anything to me in the since to where my words hurting such a heart don't really hurt me! Was I embarrassed? Yes. Was I wrong? Of course! But there is nothing more that I can or will do. I apologized, and I set everything right the way that I could. However, I will watch my words, and make sure that my thoughts are better judged. So learn from me. Do not allow your assumptions to be vocal. If you are curious ask in a respectful manner the question you are hoping to have answered.And, if anything, at the least, BE A FUCKING GENTLEMEN!!!!

436 Cowards
Raise your hands if you are still mad at Chick-fil-a... Yeah? Still upset that one guy was asked a question and gave an honest answer on his feelings on gay marriage? Well, how many are you planning on visiting Russia any time soon? If you are raise your hands... Ok... Are you gay? If so, you don't exist according to Russian law that was just passed today (yesterday according to their time) That it is not legal to teach children that homosexuality exists. Seriously! If you are gay and live in Russia, you do not exist in the eyes of the Russian government. The State Duma (basically the congress of their government) passed the bill unanimously 436-0 This goes back to what I was talking about yesterday. People who have a voice or a right are being stripped of those because the government wants what it wants. Sad. The penalty for being gay is explained by Joe Bereta and its just all stupid. Sad day for the world... What's even more sad is that the Sons and Daughters of Russia, that are gay, doesn't exist in their eyes anymore... Be sure to keep an eye on this story and this stupid administration. I'm pretty sure there will be a huge uprising. Just gotta wait and see. And to the 2 gay protesters who were brutally murdered by anti-gay proponents, may they rest in peace. May they no longer know pain. We got it a hell of a lot better over here. Let's make sure to count our blessings. Goodnight.
"VAGINA UPRISING!"
Yesterday was the premiere of "Pussy Riot: A Punk Prayer" on HBO. As a film student and a film fan, I am in love with documentaries. HBO, lately, has put out AMAZING eye-opening documentary series that brings to light things that our entitled asses need to know. We have so much here in America that we bitch about, we neglect to realize how good we have it. I have gone down this road before when it comes to the issues of the world and our neglect to it, or our elitist status about being one to know whats going on, or just ignore it all, because we wanna go party, get drunk, get high, bitch about the fact that this girl or that guy is confusing the fuck out of us with their demure and try to figure out if its love or not. We forget that the world is just as fuck up as our, or its even worse.
I knew a very little bit about "Pussy Riot" before I saw the documentary. What I knew was that these girls are playing pop concerts all around the Moscow area of Russia to voice their opinions and raise awareness of the powers at be (Vladimir Putin). I'm not going to get into great detail of my awareness of them before the documentary, I just know that these women were brave and strong. What I have learned about these girls is that they are a new medium of art and anger. These girls do what they do because it has affected their family in one way or the other when it comes to what Putin has done in regards of cutting jobs and wages. That's one of the reasons why they decided to be outspoken. The last time I have heard of a woman or women so outspoken was the simple and amazing act of Ms. Rosa Parks. Now, I know that there are thousands of ladies that are living and have lived in this world that has stood up against the norm, and the expected; like Phoolan Devi, or Mother Teresa, or Princess Diana, or Joan or Arc to name a few of many. But Rosa Parks did what she did as graceful as she could have. Pussy Riot, ultimately, is doing the same thing, but in a manner to let the world know that this is how we will be heard. Some, like Ms. Parks, uses one word with silence. Pussy Riot uses the music medium of Punk to bring to light their disagreement with the establishment, Same method of standing for what you believe, just different interpretations of the picture.
These women were arrested and jailed for one of their concerts that happened at The Cathedral of Christ The Savior in Moscow. This is the performance that they got in SO much trouble for. And what does not add up is the fact that they did nothing to degrade the Cathedral, or make light of anyones beliefs. They were just performing a song that said "Virgin Mary, Mother of God, put Putin away..." What they were doing was performing. Nothing about this was sacrilegious or offensive. They just wanted to voice their opinion of what was going on in their world! And what are we bitching about--gay marriage. Really? Yeah. These women see a real issue that is harming their land. All the while, we worry about Tim Tebow signing with The Patriots, or about Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. Cause THOSE are important issues... NEVER MIND the fact that just yesterday, in Russia, there was a "kiss in" protest where the children of Russia were harassed for their beliefs. They passed an "Anti-gay" bill into law, and these people were harassed for their personal choice... But lets find out whats going on with Chad Johnson as he fights his incarceration for slapping his lawyer on the ass for being a "good lawyer." Did you hear about The Spurs winning big against Miami in Game 3 in the NBA Finals!? I bet you have!
These people are starting to revolutionize who they are. As we sit here on the brink of history as gay rights are due to pass (Seriously. It's just a matter of time.), America will find the next thing to fight or defend... Will it finally be religion? I'm not just talking about Muslims or Christians... I'm talking about all religion. If not that, what about the fight to keep illegals out. Will that come back to kick us in the ass? Who knows! I just know that if we can actually care for something other than what we want, the world would be better off. But until then, I hope and pray that God blessed the women of "Pussy Riot" with the freedom to express themselves and their feelings with no prejudice and no harassment. Until then, they sit in jail knowing that they did exactly what needed to be done allowing the world to see the corruption of Church and State in Russia, and the oppression that is Vladimir Putin. So, pay attention to the world around you, and make sure that the fight is worth the fuck you give.

31+ days and counting!
So, it has been a month and some change that I have not been on the social media websites. I do watch YouTube videos, and keep up with ideas and what not on Cracked.com, and BuzzFeed.com, but for the most part, I have stayed away from the Facebooks, and the Twitters, and DAMN! I feel good! I actually went out, and hung out with some friends, and I plan on doing a lot more than that in the coming months of this hiatus. I have and will keep up with this blog, because that's what I do! Like I mentioned on Facebook, "If you want to keep up with whats going on with me, you can call, text, email, or fallow along on my blog (didn't even look it up)."
But yeah! I am still working at the same place, and I am loving the fact that I am off of school, I passed both classes. It was the worst quarter in my career so far, I got an A- in my College Algebra class, and a C- in my English class. The C- is not what I usually go for, but I had to sacrifice one class for another. If you know me, you know that I absolutely HATE, H.A.T.E. math, and the one thing that I REALLY REALLY hate is having to prove that I can think logically. And with that as my motivation, I made sure that I passed my algebra class with flying colors. I usually do a lot better in English but because I was so focused and stressed out on passing Algebra, I sacrificed that grade, and I am proud of it. Anyways, the doing has been done, and here is your update! Later today, I will have a blog on how I believe we are all under mind-control. Until then, Blessings!
