What's Next

Well its been some time since I posted on my blog and a lot has happened since then. I had a very close friend pass away from cancer and watched most of my savings disappear in a matter of months. I would have to say that I have not had a lot to cheer about over the past year, however I've learned that if you think you are having a tough time just watch the news every day and you will realize that there are many people who are a lot worse off than we are.

I am remaining optimistic that we will start to see the economy turn around and people going back to work. I will always try to keep my since of humor during hard times and find a way to laugh. That being said I thought it was pretty funny last night when the telephone rang about 11pm and my wife answered to find that it was my 1 1/2 year old granddaughter on the other line. The amazing thing is that her mother did not dial our number and this is not the first time she has done this.

I was working on one of my web sites WorldSubmits.com and realized that I had finally made it to the 1st page in Google under 1 on niche terms Low Cost Domains, Web Hosting, and Email, this is funny since I now get to spend more time with my family and still do what I enjoy, web site design. I know more people are looking to work from home and need the right company to design their websites. WorldSubmits.com - Web Site Design Services are among the best available and most affordable.

If you would like to spend more time with your family, think about working at home and visit WorldSubmits.com...

The Wire

2008-03-13T04:29:00Z

Well it’s finally over, that is the last season of The Wire. I was talking to a friend the other day and asked her what she thought my first topic for my new blog should be. She immediately said The Wire. I knew this HBO Series was a hit with my family, but there was so many people that I work with that also followed the series.

I have watched The Wire since the first season and can not believe it is finally over. I guess all good things must come to an end. Several of my friends said that we should let them (HBO) know that we want more, however I honestly feel that with all of the characters that got touched (killed off), there would not be any way to replace them.

Well let’s look back on some of my favorite characters through the years that got touched,

1. Stringer Bell
2. Omar Little
3. D’Angelo Barksdale
4. Preston Brodie Broadus
5. Prop Joe
6. Felicia Snoop Pearson
7. Calvin Cheese Wagstaff
8. Butchie

These characters had major parts and every time one of them died, I was shocked!

Shiiiiit... I don’t care about ratings and never did, I wish this series could last another 5 years. Let me know what you think about my blog and by all means please feel free to leave your comments.

Black In The Day

2008-03-12T15:43:00Z

I just thought I would go back to a time when I was a young man trying to find my way in life. I had ambitions just like most young black men. I wanted a nice ride, a pretty girl, and lots of money. Well today I am a lot older and some of my desires have changed but I continue to dream like I did when I was a young man. I find that today black men have more issues to face than 30 years ago. Very few black men today have been in a long relationship, have had continued financial growth, and overall good health.

What can we do to change the cycle? As we go along I will be looking into ways that we can secure our piece of the Black American Dream. I have been working on some online businesses, my own Web Hosting business www.worldsubmits.com, and a Black Dating website www.blackdating1.com. These are examples of ways that black men and women can supplement their income and work from home at the same time.

Over the next few weeks I will explore other avenues for wealth building and health building. Stay tuned!
