“Yessir” I told him. “Straight-off-the-boat-Mexican!” I had to defend him on the basketball court and I wasn’t looking forward to it. I had noticed earlier that he had a sick handle and an amazing shot from long range. He couldn’t have been taller than 5’6″. I had just finished lifting weights and was super tight [...]

Yes! I don’t have a television yet I was on TV. All my loyal readers may remember that I was mentoring in my community I have continued to mentor and have a blast getting to know my mentee. The leader at the LULAC Center where I meet with my mentee, Otis Gray, asked me a [...]

DISCLAIMER: I do have one television that was given to me 2 years ago. It is at least 10 years old and does not have a converter thing-a-ma-bopper. I used it for my girls to watch their Disney movies. But now I don’t have a DVD player and haven’t watched anything on it in months. [...]

“Tighten your core, tighten your core !!!” Jay Stylz, my salsa mentor and instructor screams at me during my personal private lessons. Again and again. “Plant your feet firmly when you land!” “Don’t collapse when you come out of turns!” He yells at me over and over again. The truth is he may not be [...]

Well for those of you that may be interested in viewing my journey to get my tattoo I now have the video below. Someone asked me how long I had thought about getting this done. The truth? It design has been in my head for over 10 years. The feeling of actually having it now [...]

It is 8am and I am fully awake. I have a ton of things to do. Work out, call a friend about scheduling a time to practice improv, talk to my programmer(deadline!!!), see my nephew’s team play for the championship of their basketball tournament (insert proud uncle smile).

The great Ashley Ambirge recently wrote on her blog, The Middle Finger Project,  about Socialization(wonders if that should be capitalized) and the fact many of us are robots. She defines Socialization as the “the inheritance of the norms, customs, values of a culture“. Although society needs structure, I agree that this should not be at [...]

Another week in the books! Another interesting week indeed. One of the highlights of the week involved me being recommended for an commercial audition. Yes, ME! Although I am an improv actor, I am not an actor in the acting sense of the word. One of my fellow improvisers, Theresa, thought I fit their criteria. [...]
