Wzzzzup and welcome to my blog!!!! ha ha ha ha (excuse my evil laugh)
Some of my brodas and sistas might be asking now, what the hell is this? who's the old man? what's this gotta do with anything? where's my food??? where's the cold beer????
Funny you asked, do let me take up some of your precious Spice-channel-watching minutes to share my thoughts, aight?
With MJ walking out the door today Friday June 29th at exactly 3:28pm (I could of sworn, out from nowhere, the main theme from The Magnificent Seven started playing as he was riding off into the sunset...) call it anything you want, "End of an Era", "The Night SDM Died", "An End and a New Beginning".... to me, it meant "The day we say to ourselves, either get busy living, or get busy dying".
'Cause in some odd way, as I was left alone on the now empty office floor, left alone to reflect on what have happened these past few months leading to today where now all around me, sights of only shut down PCs where its users will no longer come back to log back into, empty cubicles with project docs and drafted gameplan-like written notes lying lifeless there where its owners will not come back to review or to share them. Nothing but silent, so silent it started to hurt my ears. Anybody there? anyone, please anyone... don't go home yet Frank, stay around and complaint to yourself more!!!! All the good strong individual who left, all of them good friends, all of them, I've realized, all became their own version of "Andy Dufresne".
And at that moment, I became "Red", slowly transforming to an "Andy" while thinking about "Brooks".
These are all characters of Shawshank Redemption, if you don't get it, go watch the damn movie already.
So, "... Either get busy living, or get busy dying" my friends, "...get busy living, or get busy dying".
Thanks for lending me your ears.
Now where's my remote control?

Red,
I will leave an envelope under a rock along a rock wall in the field. When you get out, promise me that you will visit this rock.
Remember Hope is a Good thing, maybe the best thing.
Your friend forever,
