71) It drives me nuts when people say "I could care less" It's "I COULDN'T care less." Idiot.
72) It drives me nuts when people say "de ja vu all over again." That's redundant. What the hell do they think de ja vu means?
73) When did "urban" become synonomous with "Black"? I'm Black but very much from the suburbs.
74) I have never felt the need to "rep my hood " or used the fact that I'm "from the streets" as an excuse to snap on someone or act a fool in public. Is that what being Black means?

84) You can create your own reality, but there is only one truth (I made that up all by myself)
85) Despite my many faults and shortcomings I am a born again Christian

87) It is because I know I will fall short that I asked God to help me be better
88) Yes I believe in hell

93) My son got in trouble the other day for acting up in class

95) When I was in high school I shop lifted a sterling silver serving spoon from King of Prussia Mall. I still have it.
96) I don't trust short people
97) This one time, at band camp...
98) I was going to say something inappropriate here, but thought better of it.

Hi GiftFromVirgo
Does your sister know that you've told the world that she has HIV? Is this the sister that you show under your "my beautiful sister" link, or is it the other one?

From the moment she was diagnosed she has been very open about her illness and has spoken at high schools in her home town about HIV awareness and treatment. She has never been ashamed or shy about the reality of her sickness and I have always admired her for that. No, it is not the sister from the pictures. I have 2 older sisters and one younger "sister" that I adopted a few years ago.
