Coffee0072 asked:
What if you just let yourself NOT ponder the trials and tribulations of life, and you spent 2 hours (or even a day off) doing anything and nothing… do you think you’d find joy in the mundane? Or would you feel guilty for allowing yourself one moment to experience being epicurean?
I do find joy in the mundane and I will take a day off and do nothing with a quickness. My problem is being able to maintain that. I’m like Ellen Ripley, when the aliens show up I can stay calm and kill them and survive. When they leave though I start thinking about their nature and find it hard to stop. Breif respites are easy it’s maintaining it that’s hard.
Billy Sunday asked:
Did you collect comic books when you were coming up? who was your favorite character? who was your favorite artist?
when you get a chance would you mind adding another ‘n’ to your link for Dallas Penn?
I did have a comic collection and I actually still have it to this day I’m just not adding on to it. Wolverine was/is my favorite character. Despite the fact that he could heal he took alot of punishment. The older I grow I identify with Spiderman - how will I save the world, get the girl and keep my bills paid?
Hell yeah I’ll add a link Dallas Penn is dope ya’ll.
Nikki asked:
What is the most important intangible gift you wish to give to kids?
The will to follow a dream. I wrote once: Working for years out to get this gold parachute/ the children can fly we be teaching them how to paratroop I think we ground our children too hard and prevent them from pursuing what we think is impossible dooming them to mundane billpaying lives.
Brother Omi asked:
When you coming down to Hampton Roads?
I planned to come down last month and didn’t. I’ll probably end up down there on the humble…keep posting them events I won’t be able to fight it long….beside ya’ll had the Dri Fish down there and I can’t let his Dishiki thongs and Coofi condoms represent for us.
Keep asking folks this gives me time to come up with ideas for original posts.
why have you moved me to the absolute last spot on your blogrolling list? Have I done something to make you displeased with my blog? Don’t get me wrong, I am absolutely honored to be here and would rather be last than none at all.
Also, you have Dallas Pen/Dallas Penn twice on your list. Will you consider deleting one of them?
Finally, what have your housemates been up to lately? I always find their antics outrageous.
