A Happy Friday for US!!?

First and Formost, Happy 81st Birthday to the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther the King Jr..
(The King? Yeah...The King if you ever watched Coming to America then you know what i'm talking about.) All I have to say is that if it weren't for this man, the human race wouldn't be where it is right now...Period


Martin Luther King Jr. was arrested and photographed on Feb 22, 1956 at the age of 27 after a bus boycott in Montgomery, Alabama. These are the eyes of a determined man.

"The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at a time of challenge and controversy. The true neighbor will risk his position and even his life for the welfare of others."
- Martin Luther King, Jr.



The Haiti News continues to hurt my heart.




As the news said that bodies cover the street and people make mask because of the smell of dead bodies. Why did this happen? Why did happen in Haiti? The poorest country in the western hemisphere...People say this confirms the 2012 theory of the world ending. I still don't believe that.
But Our collective question of why this happened will never be answered...atleast not in this lifetime...





The good news is that Haiti should receive more than 100 million dollars from all of support and donations given. The thing is how long will this money take to get there? When will these checks be cut? Feel me?


USNS Comfort will leave Baltimore tomorrow but will take a while to reach haiti...
Supplies have finally begin to arrive in Haiti but most of it is still at the airport...They are having issues getting it to the people because most roads are blocked..and they think people will riot when the supplies arrive. I truly hope that people don't riot but it may happen..


Today there was another earthquake..this time in Venezuela..not as serious as the one in Haiti. No deaths have been reported yet but a few serious injuries.

Will a third earthquake happen? I hope not.

But none of that stuff matters as long as we're all good and safe here right?!

(Please hint my sarcasm..)


Happy Friday to all... And have a nice weekend..

Heres Something to get you in the weekend mood:

R.I.P. Jeremy M. Ross June 9, 1987-January 2, 2010

My first year at Howard University, someone told me that the people you met this year would be your friends forever. (This has held true and false) But I met one person that I would never forget as long as I lived....

Jeremy Ross...Called J by most.
Living on the Penthouse (5th Floor) of Drew Hall, we all became brothers with each other. J was a wild dude to say the least. But he and I had a appreciate, admiration, a respect for each other. He and I became even tighter when we both found out our favorite rapper was Nas. No One...No One was a bigger Nas fan than me...until I met J. He put me on new Nas songs...songs that I hadn't heard. I had to respect it. We both had the same taste in rap, i think thats what bonded us. Me and J had a rivalry on NBA Live on Playstation 2.(I dunno what the series was..but i think he had me by a few games..) I stayed away from J in the Madden cuz he was nice..yall know he was nice! lol.
Most said he was strange and maybe he was...But he was My Nigga....regardless. No one went harder! And we used to get it in on the 5th that year. Get It in!! I'll never forget our trip to Georgetown...
Everyone who went remembers the trip to Georgetown! How could you not?!
Remember J said "I feel like i'm in super mario right now" and started jumping off the walls in front of drew and made the super mario sounds?! lmao and when he picked up the cabbage from in front of Drew and threw it?!
When we got to Georgetown this man peed on a statue of a lion or something..lol...That was a crazy right!! Crazy!!! I'll never forget it!!

I remember when Dashawn and J got into it in Fred and Gary's room and Dashawn was slamming J..and noone expected Dashawn to do that!!! That was sooooo funny!!! Gotta remember that!! lol

When I made my first trip to Houston, I had to hit up Jeremy...we made the trip to Jeremy's crib in Sugarland...But Jeremy def almost got us killed dealing with some clown ass dude in Mo City(Missouri City a suburb of Houston) That shit was crazy!!! I can laugh at it now...but then..it wasn't that much of a joke...but when i look back...we didn't take it that seriously then too...lol

I have so many other memories with Jeremy...some that I won't share on here...lol But i think we all have a memory with Jeremy... If you do.. take a moment and think about that time.

I feel like Jeremy lived his life to the fullest and did alot in the 22 years he was on earth...he lived like there was tomorrow...almost like he knew he didn't have long to live.

Today, January 8th, Jeremy was laid to rest in Houston, Texas. Leaving behind a family who lived him dearly and friends who will miss him forever.

This is an example of why we need to cherish life, appreciate every moment, every day, every victory and defeat. We never will get those back. Start to life like you don't have much time left because you don't know how much time you have left.

Below is a link to an online guest book for Jeremy..if you know him or if you don't please leave some words for his family:
