About Me
You don't know? Al'ight so here is a lil' breakdown. Born in Bakersfield, California in the early 70's, 73 to be exact which makes me 33. I have who knows how many sisters and brothers (papa got down), although by my latest count there is 6 confirmed not counting myself, including my little brother Aaron who was shot last year (17 years old), and rumors of another two. If you really want to know, I grew up on Dore Drive, went to Pauly elementary, Emerson Jr. High, and South High School (that's right dem Rebels). From there I packed my sheyet and moved to Sacramento. While at Sacramento State, I pledged a fraternity (Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc.)
wrote 3 books of poetry (Through My Eyes I & II, Hypnogysms), did two co-op/internships with Intel corporation, worked full-time, published articles, had articles published about me, studied Computer Engineering, mentored students high school and college, performed/spoke all over the country (spoken-word, workshops, and presentations on black),
met the love of my life, my beautiful wife Tasha
had the first of my 3 boys (Semaj)

published a Health Fact Book for the State of California , and traveled like a fiend until I started working Saturdays.
That being said I also found time to participate in more than a few organizations; National Society of Black Engineers , Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc. , Pan-African Student Alliance, African Student Alliance, United Black Student Organizations, Ujima, and assisted in several other capacities. All and all my time at CSU, Sacramento (Sac State nukka) helped me to mature into a man and gave me the opportunity to meet a lot of wonderful people who contributed in so many positive ways to my life. Even some of the sucka's I met have made a profound contribution on my life (unintentional I'm sure). When I was finished at Sac State, I went to work full time with the State of California, quit and went and got my Real Estate license (didn't like the shadiness of the industry), went back to work with the state in the Information Technology section.
As for money and material, we can't take it with us so ain't no need in trippin' on it. The only thing we have is each other, which brings me to why I am here on MySpace. Primarily, I jumped on to catch up with old friends who I haven't heard from or seen in years. I hate getting phone calls and having conversations with people to find out one of my partnas has been murdered or just passed away from natural causes. Especially when we haven't talked in a long time. I treasure my friendships. That being said, I am always open to meeting new people, but keep the bullsheyet to a minimum and I'm not interested in hooking up so don't worry.
FYI: I just had my 2nd and 3rd baby boys on 12/23/2005
Terin and Tai .
That's right twins and you can put a fork in me because I'm done.
Peace,
"It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points how the strong man stumbled or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly. Who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions. Who spends himself in a worthy cause. Who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly so that his place will never be with those timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat." ..Theodore Roosevelt
