The stats machine is telling me today’s post is post number 500. So much going on in ‘real life’, we’re right on time for some introspection… By the personal and professional standard I hold myself to, I’ve had back to back ‘house money’ years. I’ve been in the Game long enough to know this […]
Your faithful narrator is going through a lot of mixed emotions right now: joy and elation, frustration, accomplishment, sadness, determination. Not at liberty to go into details until next month, so be patient as I imagine the posts/song choices will be even more all over the place than normal depending on how I’m feeling […]
This weekend went beyond my expectations so we’ll delay the music for a day. I’d say from Christmas to now I’ve seen 80 to 90 percent of the people I care about, and certain questions keep coming up repeatedly. So here’s a quick Frequently Asked Questions post for the other 10 percent of you […]
I have a confession… Even in my mind’s eye, when I made to this point where everything I wanted become more tangible and less hypothetical…I didn’t think I would be enjoying myself.

‘It’s happening. It’s happening right now.’ As I’ve touched base with the people closest to me, that’s been the overall message about this year. Everything broke right, the pieces of the puzzle have fallen into place, my confidence is peaking. I feel like Neo in the pic above: you know you’re in the Matrix, you’ve […]
The documentary New Muslim Cool is available on Netflix Instant. Made a couple years back, the film follows a Puerto Rican brother by the name of Hamza, who converted to Islam and credits the religion for turning his life around. In my opinion, this doc offers one of the better, more personal views of what it’s […]
I found myself nodding quite a bit as I watched this one. Here’s the (hopefully not) last edition of Ask a Muslim. The subject is 9/11:
So I have something fun and exciting that I’ve been working on that I’ll start pubbing Sunday night/Monday morning. Before then, here’s your last post to go into the weekend, a humourous edition (in my opinion at least) of the Ask a Muslim Series:
This is a story of passion, so let’s begin by using one of our passions as a way of easing into the story… I was watching The Matrix Revolutions the other day. Not as bad as people remember, but as we all know, the third film in trilogies have a habit of leaving some people very […]
