personal message


I am an energetic 61-year-old married man with five children and nine grandchildren! I have lived an interesting life full of ups and downs and have arrived at a "quiet place" in my life where Friends, Family, and Faith are all together.

If you come to my page seeking anything other than friendship, I am sorry to say you will be disappointed because I really have no time for anything else. I don't smoke, drink, or do drugs of any kind and live an extremely rich and full life!

I have discovered that the secret to a happy life is affection and humor every day!! 

I was born in Washington, DC (at Freedman's hospital, for those that know); grew up in Pittsburgh (St. Clair Village when it was a GREAT place to be); lived near Valley Forge, Pennsylvania for three years; moved back to Pittsburgh, met my current wife and now live in Maryland for good.

I think that if one were to be a friend of mine, they would experience an active and interesting friendship. I love being active with my friends and will invite you to live my life WITH me.

For over eleven years, I have hosted an offline Meet & Greet here in the Washington, DC area so that online friends can meet each other in persn. We only meet in public, safe, and sophisticated venues where the only measure of success is if two people meet and became friends!

However, we are proud to say that many many couples have met and actually married after having done so! We are also so proud to have had people come from great distances to join us! One single lady came from San Francisco SIX TIMES, one from Winnipeg, Canada, while another woman came from London, England--TWICE!

You WILL meet some of the most wonderful people you could ever hope to meet as we are very much like Family in our dealings with each other.

I can honestly say that the vast majority of my current friends are friends that I've met online! What a true blessing!

I am tired of being "Black!"

Posted


 

No, not as I am but as people want me to appear.

There is a certain level of negative expectations when it comes to "Black" people. They are lazy; shiftless; criminal; pathological; overly lustful; leeches on society; and on and on and on. Of course, this is not true of all of us and I dare say that I, and a whole LOT of my friends and acquaintances are NOT this way but what does that matter?

But, when a crime occurs, the first thought among people... (continue reading)

Thoughts of Gain and Loss in Life

Posted



This morning's adult Bible Study class left me with many sobering thoughts. We always have lively discussions and many varied experiences that we share from our daily life. It's a large class...perhaps forty people...and this allows for some solid give and take. As one of the newer members of the group and one whose Bible knowledge is dwarfed by everyone, I...

Proactive Avoidance

It is interesting that the average car on the road today has more electronics than the lunar module that first landed on the moon! Many of these systems are dedicated to the passenger's safety and to provide a quiet stress free ride. Car coming into your lane? The sensors detect this and move your car out of the way. In an accident anyway? Sensors activate airbags and inflate to keep us from devastating injury.

If only humans could have... (continue reading)

Why the Coffee Business?

Posted


If you are my friend, then you know that I am in the coffee business. Oh, you've seen me market other things before, and I still have them if you need them. They are all quality and do exactly what they are designed to do. But, when it comes to the coffee business, many of you have asked me privately if it is "any good" or "is there money to be made" and the answers to both of those questions and more are emphatically YES!

Now many of you... (continue reading)

Revenue Streams

Posted

This is going to be a relatively long blog because I feel the need to express my position on business and business ventures.

I am in a number of network marketing endeavors and I am only in them because I believe in what the product or service can do for ME. By association, I can transfer that belief to another person because I can see the benefit that can accrue to THEM. In marketing, that's all it takes...the ability to wear your belief in such a...

What DO you get in a Pre-Paid Legal Membership??

Posted

I can only imagine how many people thought like I did whenever someone approached me to discuss Pre-Paid Legal. "Another network marketing" thing...? Go on, you can admit it...I am. LOL

But, when one really digs beneath the service and sees exactly what one has available for a very modest monthly fee, you may be surprised. One really should let the facts speak for themselves...

Given that one is three times more likely to need an attorney than a doctor, one should make... (continue reading)
