From Dusk Till Dawn: One Night Stand
Robert is standing in line at the Big Kahuna Burger of Texas waiting to have his order taken. “What can I get ya handsome?” The female cashier asked with a heavy southern accent. “Can I get four number one’s, two with cheese and two without cheese?” Robert asked. “Comin’ right up, sugar” the cashier responded. Robert glanced outside of the store window at his friends in their 18 wheeler work truck with exhaust on his face for the long evening ahead. “Here ya go, honey” the cashier said while bringing Robert his order. “In for a long day?” The cashier asked. “Nope” Robert replied. “I’m out for a long night”.

Political Idolatry
We live in a world built on difference. Everyone has a different opinion or point of view on something right? Though there is nothing wrong with having an opinion or ideology you should never get so invested in these differences that you become socially or morally corrupted. That’s exactly what’s taking place in this day in age, especially here in America. This mindset has become such a stronghold that it has led to what many have referred to as political idolatry.

I’m Loving Memory Of: Bill Cobbs
Imagine this. A toddler me is sitting in the living room watching the movie New Jack City starring Wesley Snipes and Ice T and the movie’s antagonist Nino Brown is my favorite character in the movie. I’m enjoying everything about the character until some crazy old dude portrayed bill actor Bill Cobbs, who doesn’t like his villainous ways decides to enter the courtroom after the villain is set free from his wrong doing and shoots him dead. I hated that old guy when I was little, but liked him more as I got older and understood why he did what he did. The actor who played the crazy old dude is Bill Cobbs and he is a true legend of cinema.
