Dating Woes
Blind dating can be a perilous adventure. In the words of Forest Gump, which I've changed a little, "It can be like a box of chocolates; you never know what you're going to get."

They Come to Snuff the Rooster Santana
This is the story of Santana the Rooster’s triumph. It is not the greatest story I could tell or the most dangerous. It is not the only time I have faced death in my life. Some of the old timers that I attended school with as a boy do not believe it ever took place. But my cousin Tito and I still remember it clearly. Maybe because it is an event that only our young minds could have conceived of, or maybe because it was our first time facing death together, whatever the reason this is how it happened.

Confidence is a Preference for the Habitual Voyeur
'You’re very opinionated.’ ‘You’re very cocky.’ ‘You’re not as clever as you think you are.’ ‘You’d be great if you used your brain and weren’t so lazy.’

Women Wanna Heist Too
Women want to commit crimes too, and no we don't need a man to convince us to do it. I was listening to Dane Cook the other day at work, and on one track his 'Heist/Monkey' bit came up. He talks about how one girl says that all men want is sex, and he says nay. Men also want to be art of a heist and have a pet monkey.

Way to welcome us all in with open arms! What about an open door policy?
It was a beautiful morning and the sun had just risen above the horizon. The birds could be heard along with the sounds of multiple animals making their presence known. It was surreal and fascinating to be on a safari in a huge animal reserve. The hope was to see and capture the images of as many wild animals as possible as my time in Africa was coming to an end. As we made our way through the reserve, I saw it. I called it ‘la girafe’ because for some reason everything sounds so much more refined and educated when said in French.

An Ode to Cake
While watching "Most Ridiculous" with my preteen daughter recently they played a video of a small group of people singing "Happy Birthday" to a little boy. He didn't seem very enthused and casually flipped over his before they had a chance to finish their song. It looked like something that his poor mother probably stayed up all night baking. I identify with that on a deep spiritual level, because I know exactly how much effort it takes to bake a cake with love. It was a very funny video and I'm sure that it will be a fond memory when he gets older.

My Nightmare From The Kitchen
My summer is not turning out the way I expected it to be. First, I am stuck in a different country far away from home. So, no family, no friends, and no home food. God, do you know how long I has waited to be able to go home, sit and relax and not have to meal prep? I was so sure my mother had already planned all our meals for the whole of my summer break because she missed me. Meal prepping is the single worst idea we have come up with as humans, and we have a lot of wacky ideas, so this is saying something. You’re telling me, that I must hold down two jobs, do full time university, and cook my own food, do my laundry, and basically survive on my own with no help from anyone else? Is this what adulting is because I feel more clueless than ever.

I Wish Older People Would Stop Saying This.
Does anyone notice that older generations, especially Boomers, have a saying for something. Its as if these people live as if real life were a television show. In a sense, every other sentence they speak has to be some catchphrase or motto. While most of what older folks say may be funny, at times their words can be infuriating.

The Gemini Way Of Life
If you were born between May 20 and June 21, you are… a disaster waiting to happen. Just kidding, you are a Gemini, twin ruler of the Air. According to Greek mythology, and possibly other mythologies, the Gemini sign is mutable and associated with positivity, but in the world of 2021, you cry every chance you get. Just kidding, again. Now we could do this the old way and I could give you a vague, ego boosting horoscope. But let’s do this the Gen Z way- a fully functional horoscope with slight appreciation and a lot of criticism.

The Lady Killer. Top Story - May 2021.
From experience, I can tell you: conceit is a demon. After four years of promiscuity and success in the military, I created this grandiose image of myself. I was dubbed the “Lady Killer” from friends and peers. Never intimidated by women, I often led them from a bar to my place with ease. Comically enough, this confidence would hold no bearing when I pulled the wrong move at the wrong time, leaving me too embarrassed to speak.

Honey, will you till me a garden?
I just wanted my garden tilled. This is not a euphemism. Its not even an elaborate task – I just wanted the small square of ground that I had identified weeks prior, to be broken up so that I could begin establishing my little corner of happiness. Sure, there were other tasks to be accomplished to make my garden whole – but this was the first step.
