Add a Verse: 50 Cent’s “My Life”

May 23rd, 2013

If I were allowed on a track with Fifty which is iffy enough without thinking Eminem’s with me.
I’d have to have a rhyme that was the best this century to represent the inspiration rap has meant to me. Dig me?
Big me making it all the way to Detroit city. On holiday rhyming away ignoring the starstruck rap fan in me pretending
To hold the rap down while holding the track up so that the listeners can get exposed to all the intensity this track we’re on supposed to host.
And I’d take that flow from coast to coast in the stanza that I’m on like I’m a roadie who’s been doped up. Once I start I’ve got the heart to never stop till you notice…

There’s 50. There’s E.
It’s all down hill from here for me.
There’s only one other star in the sky to see
Then I wake up in Franklin ’cause it’s just a dream

Here’s the song. http://youtu.be/cN4fNaUAMbA

Religion On Facebook

October 17th, 2012

I see a lot of people need to praise Gods on their statuses these days. And I hide all of those posts. Praise technology for giving us our own filters.

Corporate Philanthropy

April 20th, 2012

Chick-fil-A has recently come across my newsfeeds even though it’s not too new that Chick-fil-A has been supporting things like Focus on the Family. The existence of this knowledge brings about a question. What is my relationship to the philanthropy of Chick-fil-A? One college voted to remove Chick-fil-A from the campus.

My gut reaction is that corporations should strive to be more value neutral. There are causes I believe in which might seem divisive or disagreeable to others. Specifically, I think evolution must be taught in schools and I think educating each other is the highest value. Educating people is a really touchy subject because what is important about education is different to different groups and none of us want to be brainwashed. I don’t want to learn about homeopathy; Liberty University wants people to learn fake science.

Stress

April 2nd, 2012

Look, I don’t mind a nice variety of obstacles all at once. As a matter of fact, I enjoy that. But it does put a damper on my blogging frequency or the energy I have to put up potentially controversial one sided arguments to remind you how important it is that we all think like me. Warning, sarcasm.

Over the next few months:
I will relocate to Tennessee.
I will begin an accelerated masters program designed to earn me a Masters of Engineering and a Masters of Business by the end of May 2013.
I will continue to address the software concerns of a new to me department at work.

And while I’m doing that I’m going to find a way to manage the facts like:
My kids still live in Virginia.
I don’t have a lot of cash on hand.
My girlfriend needs a place in all of this, too.

I guess this blog post is a note to the world that for one period of time, I’m not relaxing while I think about all the ways the world could have been. From now until about June 2013, I’ll be juggling several things at once in the hopes that it launches a lucrative next stage of my career when I convert all that momentum into company focused problem solving.

Wish me success and a large salary. I didn’t win the Mega millions last week so I’m taking the long route.

Evangelists in the wrong room Part 1.

February 29th, 2012

You want to apologize for victims
of all the other Christians
So you can witness that you’re different

But you’re the spitting image
you work in the church
You can’t see perspective
when you sit on that perch

So you stagger out friendly like
with a shudder and a lurch
Because your machinism’s rusted
But your Bible’s dusted.

You’re confused and untrusted
Because I have a secular job and no faith
You have a faith based job, that’s why
we can’t see eye to eye.

This Is Life Reviewed

January 2nd, 2012

Before This is Life, I had last seen Jack heading off for a break from life as he knew it. He had sorted out the situation involving the death of his deadbeat friend Ralph while pulling his own albatross of a drug habit off of his own neck. This is Life is a well paced cop show style thriller that takes Jack back to the loose threads of the first Jack Palms story.

To learn more about who Jack Palms is or the preceding Seth Harwood stories you could start with this link. Also, he has his own website: sethharwood.com.

This is Life starts with Jack coming home to find his bed burnt with an assailant on the premises. Mills, the old cop who helped Jack navigate through waking up and investigating the death of Ralph, needs Jack’s help to look into the connected return of Jack’s former KGB nemesis who survived the first shit storm climax that left Junius dead and Freeman unemployed. The assassination of a crooked cop via a fifty caliber slug that pokes holes in the cop’s not-a-K-car modern Mustang brings the consequences of Jack’s involvement in the local San Francisco underground home to roost.

Why My Ideas are Stupid.

November 10th, 2011

A lot of people have provided various criticisms to my general thoughts and that’s fine. Sometimes I wish people would just list the stuff they know I don’t like about them as a sort of like angst-prevention opportunity I could use to choose to ignore reading from certain people.

On The Campaign Pulpit

November 8th, 2011

I want a country that you could leave freely but you don’t want to. I want a country that wants you in it so much that they take the time to find you and make sure you’ve got what you need. I want a country where the laws fall through the cracks so the citizens don’t.

I believe in the basic principle that a good nation builds good workers that make good products that everybody can be proud of. In return for investing in our young Americans, that nation then taxes you a bit to invest in the next set of young Americans and to care for the well being of those who have invested their twenties through sixties in the American Dream.

Rap is Supposed to Be Angry

November 2nd, 2011

This is a throw away rap for entertainment.

Name me “terrorist” because I spit explosives.
My attitude can’t fly it’s so corrosive.
The patriot act doesn’t cover me
Because I pledge allegience to nothing peaceful.

I wear jeans and I soldiered on.
But I don’t have that job so the smoulders on.
Everywhere I look at Americans it’s face to palm.
It’d be a fine island if you fuckers weren’t on it.

I’m not the Be attitude in your bonnet.
I’m the future caravan. Get your white ass on it.
The bandwagon out the sand when you face the truth.
I’m Keyser Soze then I vanish. Poof!

Rub the bottle and I pop up.
It’s three of your wishes then I’m fed up.
You better sooth the spirit when you’re walking near it.
If you don’t fear it, you’ll get your cranium cleared out.

Explode in your brain like I’m rocket science.
You let me in so go get compliant.
Make a nice tight seal so you can keep this thought.
The future got bought up. I’m getting you caught up.

I’m at the top in my pin stripe get right
Everything I do to you invites your spitefullness.
I smile and clap cause you’re so delightful
when you’re pissed like that it’s like you’re wearing diapers.

The way your wisdom works it’s quite the same.
You claim history but it’s a future’s game.
You didn’t recall the facts of the world at all.
It’s a jab from my left but you see a southpaw.

Pack up last call. Drinking off your glass jaw.
Is that all, packing in the cab yelling “asshole”.
Thinking my freeze will thaw like I’m a TV dinner
Try to feed on me and get apprehended.
