Role Model? I Already Got a Day Job.

Yesterday morning I was at my gym with sleep in my eyes handling some administrative affairs at the front desk. I had a terrible case of the Mondays, and this “illness” was intensified by the fact that my job is like a 5-7 minute walk from my gym. The printer wasn’t working at the desk [...]

Rantings of an SBM

Slim Jackson This week went by pretty quickly all things considered. Got to work from home for the first time since taking my current job a little bit over a year ago. I now realized that my job definitely doesn’t need to be done from the office. I got more work done in a few [...]

Quick! Somebody get me Katt Williams!

It Does A Body Good

I was thumbing through the April issue of Essence the other day and itis like an ‘Ode to MILF’s,’ showcasing women and in their 50′s-like 80′s, some of whom don’t look a day over 35 max! And a good looking 35 year old at that, not the one that’s had a”hard life. I know exactly [...]

SBM Answers: When we need to be even more clear!

My post Monday (Can I be any clearer?) brought a quick response from a fellow male who is having a recurring issue of being clear just not working (some people are just don’t want to listen).  While my wisdom is deeper than the pacific, I know the collective thought of my great readers is so [...]
