I studied Political Science at Morehouse. I remember Political Theory with Dr. Robert Brisbane and he did a detailed lecture on the formation of the nation-state. I served in the Peace Corps in Zaire (DRC) in the early 90s. Colonialism & geo-politics have consumed me. This #WorldCup brings so much.
I looked up freak of nature today in the dictionary. It said see Erling Haaland. #WorldCup
I had significant closure with both of my parents before their recent transactions but damn there are conversations I wish I had. Miss them so much. Grief is a dynamic process. It's been a tough couple of months.
Hotel life. I have enjoyed being at the Courtyard Marriott/ McHenry Row Locust Point for the past several days in Baltimore...
That's all good FAA ... Way to fight. Your day will come ... #Wimbledon ...
Did some retirement planning today. I could retire in 3 years but will likely go for 6 years. The good Lord willing and the creek don't rise like it did in 2025. I will likely stay in the DMV. I love this place and the lifestyle it affords me.
I am currently listening to three audiobooks courtesy of @libro.fm. Also rewatching Ken Burns PBS Civil War. God bless this crazy country which I love. #America250 ...
My friend Chris and I will be grilling on Saturday. I shipped 3 bone-in ribeyes and some sausages to him. They arrived today. #America250 #July4th ...
