This year, lots of things will happen for me. Stand by. I can promise you one thing. It won't be a fucking Avengers Infinity War movie ending.

You want a 10, but you only merit a 6 because you’re a 4.

Faded Dreams

Posted on January 20, 2014January 21, 2019 by Dennis Davis

Today is the day we recognize Dr. Martin Luther King Jr and most importantly his message. I grew up in Montgomery Alabama, not far from historic Selma and the famous march that jump started the civil rights movement. I was lucky. Lucky that I grew up on the tail end of that struggle and yet … Continue reading Faded Dreams →

The Pessimist, the Cynic, and the Ne’er Do Well

Posted on January 23, 2012January 23, 2012 by Dennis Davis

Please....shut up already, you leech, you vampire, you succubus. I can feel you draining all of my optimistic soul with your chronic complaining and pessimism. Yes life is a struggle, I get it. Just stop talking about how miserable your life is and DO something about it. I have my own issues to contend with. … Continue reading The Pessimist, the Cynic, and the Ne’er Do Well →

Ain’t Life A Niche…

Posted on May 18, 2011 by Dennis Davis

Overzealous, overconfident, overactive, and today.....over reaching. I'm the biggest advocate of stepping out of the box, breaking away from the norm and doing or being different. That said, we each have our own roles to play in life. Our own talents, our own gifts. Our very own little niche. I know, (as much as I … Continue reading Ain’t Life A Niche… →

Full Circle

So. Here we are. 2011 There is war, hate and distrust EVERYWHERE. WTF happened? Why is there so much damn unrest and violence in the middle east? I guess if I want to understand it, I'll have to go back. Waaaaaaay back.... Flashback to the Crusades for a moment. The Crusades were a series of … Continue reading Full Circle →

Resolute Ideas

2010 is over. Thank God. It's been a rollercoaster ride from hell, from natural disasters to the ongoing ever present recession, things have not been nice (putting it mildly). Nevertheless tonight, err....tomorrow begins a new year, new beginnings, new chances, new opportunities and for a lot a people, new resolutions. I can tell my age … Continue reading Resolute Ideas →

Bittersweet November

Posted on November 15, 2010December 16, 2011 by Dennis Davis

Well now....I think I'm most certainly convinced without a shadow of doubt that our country is nowhere near being out of the "recession" and things are steadily declining. Why? Because two weeks ago I lost my job due to downsizing. I was numb at first. Kind of in a haze for a week or two. … Continue reading Bittersweet November →

Facebook, Episode 2 (the awakening)

Posted on November 5, 2010January 26, 2011 by Dennis Davis

So....we are still piling terabytes of personal data into facebook servers. Guess what? It's learning. Of course not like Skynet (Google and Apple will merge later to form that), but Facebook is evolving to become one large interactive advertisement that you create. Look, see that section of interests, hobbies, likes and dislikes you just told … Continue reading Facebook, Episode 2 (the awakening) →

Garlic crabs in a barrel

Posted on June 30, 2010March 5, 2014 by Dennis Davis

It's hard enough to deal with hidden agendas and the proverbial knife in the back, but when you're forced to endure the "crabs in the barrel" attitude from your own people, it really stops you in your tracks and makes you take a hard look at society, culture and regional environments....or maybe, that's just me.
