It Ain’t That Serious…
**Don’t forget to check out the Modern Day Matchmaker video below this post!** Unless you live in a cave I’m pretty sure you’re aware that the Superbowl was this past Sunday. Actually, I take that back, because I’m pretty sure even Bin Laden invited some of his closest infidel friends over for hot tea and [...]
Role Model? I Already Got a Day Job.
**The recent violence in Chicago got me thinkin’ about the youth and their recklessness. I started to get frustrated and then remembered the saying “If you’re not a part of the solution, you’re part of the problem.” I started to write a post about being a role model, then remembered I had written one 6 [...]
Making Friends
Nope. Not the all white cast tv show. Earlier this week I wrote a post for the Single Black Male website telling the story of an ambiguously gay encounter that I had with an African man. Actually, I wrote that post the same day that Sowhatiff posted here on the topic of Down Low Brothas. [...]

Can’t Get a Job Cuz My Name Is Too Black
By Slim Jackson Every now and then I have the conversation with someone about names. Not nicknames, but government names. Slim Jackson is an alias. If you knew my real name, you’d expect me to perhaps be a preppy white guy that wears polo shirts and khaki shorts. Well, you’d be fairly accurate except for [...]
Milk in their Coffee? How About Chocolate Milk?
By Slim Jackson Sowhatiff made you take it, so now it’s my turn to give it to you. It only hurts for a second. Pause…and breath…and Pause. To date, I haven’t been a man that discriminates. Though I’ve refined my taste like a triple distilled vodka, I still don’t pay too much attention when I [...]
