About Me

A Black man caught in the mix, Tryin to make a Dollar out of Fifteen cents.. ( No Beer Until You Finish Your Tequila = Don't Drink And Drive ) This saying revolves around the song The Mistake. It was written after the singer and I both lost friends in the same year to drinking and driving accidents in 1993.
