Proper Preparation Prevents Poor Performance

About Me

Giving you a list of what I've done or what I've achieved in my life doesn't define me...nor does it really define ANYONE! We just like to "impress" and attract attention to ourselves...hell, that's why myspace is so popular! But I've realized now that those words about whatever it is I've accomplished, you'll never truly "know me" unless we meet in person, and even then, it would have to be over a period of time before we'd know one another, somewhat....so I'll spare you the looong list of things I've done...perhaps my pics and other additional info will give you a clue about me...or will it? Lol, how existential of me...how about this one: "I exist... I am somebody."

My Interests

Hip-Hop, Piano, Jazz, Philosophy, Psychology, Music Theory, The Universe, Avant-Garde musical ideas and concepts (Jazz & Classical), Film-Making, Writing (Fiction & Non-Fiction), Time-Traveling Theories (String-Theory, Worm-Holes and Black-Holes etc.), Comedy (blessed is the person who can laugh at oneself), Visual Arts (Canvas, Sketchings, Sculptures and Architectures, and the "new art" of computers and electronics).

I'd like to meet:

Aliens from another world....that would be the single greatest encounter of my life...and perhaps scary as sh*t too, if it really happened to me....but extremely incredible nonetheless!

Music:

Hip-Hop, Jazz, Jungle, some Rock, some Classical, Blues, R&B, Soul and Neo-Soul, Reggae, Salsa, Latin Jazz, Cubano, Reggaeton, Jazzy House, some Pop...the search continues...

Movies:

Too many to name....if it's good, I'll watch it!

Television:

Nothing moves me on TV anymore, except educational shows and documentaries...all I watch now is Headline News on CNN and ESPN Classic Boxing matches (Muhammed Ali, Joe Louis, George Foreman, Joe Frazier, Sugar Ray Robinson, Mike Tyson (before lunacy took over), Sugar Ray Leonard, Marvin Hagler, Aaron Pryor, Thomas Hearns, Alexis Arguello, Roberto Duran, Sugar Shane Mosley....and so on....)

Books:

Miles Davis: The Autobiography, Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill, Hannibal by Thomas Harris, books by Stephen Hawkings (his books about the mechanics of the universe and black holes), Nietzsche and Kant too! Books by Ralph Waldo Emerson, Poems by Paul Lawrence Dunbar and Langston Hughes, The Autobiography of Malcolm X by Alex Haley, Othello by William Shakespeare, Strange Red Cow by Sara Bader (you'd be surprised about our country's history in the classified section of newspapers during slavery! I recommend this book!), The Pursuit Of Happyness by Chris Gradner, Raising Hell: The Reign, Ruin, and Redemption of Run-D.M.C. and Jam Master Jay by Ronin Ro

Heroes:

My Family~ Miles Davis, James Brown (R.I.P. Godfather 1933-2006), Herbie Hancock, Keith Garrett, Bob James, Ossian Everett Mills (founder of Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia in 1898) Chick Corea, Bud Powell, Art Tatum, Thelonius Monk (guess you can say most jazz pianists of the modern era!) RUN-DMC (they were the first to influence me to get into rap and hip-hop culture...they are The Beatles of Hip-Hop!!), Afrikka Bambataa (Planet Rock has a special place in my heart) Public Enemy (I craved their music in high school...Fight the Power!) Albert Einstein, Stephen Hawkings, Orpheus (Hail Sinfonia!)
