An organization called Reporters without Borders has an online book about blogging in countries where there are oppressive regimes and restricted press.
I wonder what possibilities the blogosphere presents to Africa in regards to development, economic and political justice and spirituality.

Crumbs from your table
It's so creepy how the modern day church ignores the cries of the poor and is consumed with power and wealth. We are Constantine's foot soldiers. Concerned with the food that we eat and not willing to give crumbs from our table. Peep the U2 song:
Where you live should not decide
Whether you live or whether you die
Three to a bed
Sister Ann, she said
Dignity passes by
And you speak of signs and wonders
But I need something other
I would believe if I was able
I’m waiting on the crumbs from your table-Bono
Where you live should not decide
Whether you live or whether you die
Three to a bed
Sister Ann, she said
Dignity passes by
And you speak of signs and wonders
But I need something other
I would believe if I was able
I’m waiting on the crumbs from your table-Bono

Evolution of hip hop pt 5
Ain't no halfsteppin I'm the Big Daddy Kane! That was the jam back in the day.
Kane paved the way for the likes of some of Brooklyn's finest i.e. Notorious B.I.G. and Jay Z. He provided that Brooklyn swagger as a hip hop lover and fighter. Kane was for the ladies and the loot but he alaways stayed lyrically tight. He contributed to the game with compund syllables and tight metaphors that were innovative for his time. Give it up to Big Daddy Kane! A major player in the evolution of Hip hop.
Geographic oppression
Why do we have suburbs? The name may suggest a place that is suburban=below urban=worse than urban. This is what is confusing because the suburbs are for those who do not want to inhale the smog and hear the carhorns and duck from the gunshots.
Suburbia is for those who want to distance themselves. It is an easy way to forget the poor and the disenfranchised. To be blind. Who can fault the man who doesn't see?It is geographic oppression.

Rhythms
Read an interesting aritcle aboutRhythms by Christine Sine. God has really put this on my heart. When we go against the rhythm that God has placed inside of us as his creation then we rebel against Him as creator.
Christine and her husband Tom have some good articles and resources at their website for their organizationMustard Seed Associates

Valentine's day
I've never done anything special on Valentine's day like...
Serenade my lady......Go to a fancy shmancy restaurant....or feed her grapes ;)
I think this is because 1) I haven't had that many girlfriends 2) I haven't been much of a planner and 3) Today I am tired as Michael Jackson after the Bad tour

Hard 2 blog
Ever since I've been dating...ever since I've been married I find it hard 2 write. Whether it's writing poetry or song lyrics and especially this blog. Everytime I'm on the computer I'm doing work. Everytime I'm not on the computer I'm engaged in a conversation or I'm in motion. I need to get in gear with the mobile blogging. I also need to just start carrying a voice recorder in my pocket. That will keep me up 2 speed without having to sit down and write. There all that to say that nowadays it's hard to blog.
