The 411
Being the nomad that I am (my dad calls me a gypsy), the 411 page is the most up-to-date information about my whereabouts. I tend to update the information, even if I'm staying somewhere for a short period of time, as often as possible. Considering I work from my laptop, I recommend that if you can't reach me by phone, to send an email. Chances are, depending on the time, I'll be able to respond within the hour. Give or take a day.

No Pains, No Gaines
It started out as a column I wrote for the North Carolina A&T State University's campus newspaper, but it has evolved into an Internet column infrequently written about life's ups and downs.

The Picture Show
Every now and again I'll add some photos from my everyday life to the Picture Show of my people, places I've been and whatever things I get into. Surprisingly, I receive random emails from strangers asking me who my cousin's dating.

A BlacKorean's DC – The Blog
http://ablackoreansdc.blogspot.com
Just as it sounds, I'll occassionally write about the pulse of the nation's capital – Washington, DC. This will range from local events, local issues to the people who work there. Yes, that means politics.

The fu
Ever since high school I've been a writer. This is where you'll find some of my writings, but I have to warn you, it's not all happy, happy, joy, joy material.

Osterholz American High School Alumni Web Site
http://oahsblackhawks.com
Though I graduated from Westover High School in Fayetteville, North Carolina, I maintain an alumni website for the high school I attended in Germany when my dad was stationed there. Many of us did not graduate from OAHS, but there is something about the school and the experience of going to an American school in Germany that bonds us all together.

Because I have this insatiable desire to travel the world, I started this website just to collect links and articles of all the different places I plan on visiting before the grim reaper comes knocking.

Därú Apparel
Here you'll find a few t-shirt designs I've designed just for the fun of it. I was going to do something with these one day, but so far it's on the backburner. You can still grab some gear, though, and help a bruh pay his bills.

Ken and I do seminars for women, teaching them about how to brand themselves and a bunch of other stuff. This site currently is also a work in progress.

Real World Leader
http://realworldleader.com
This site Ken and I maintain about his book, "Leadership in the Real World." We've decided to focus less on leadership and more on branding for now, though.

The Webskins
http://webskins.org
This site was actually started and is still ran by a friend of mine, Chris Suh, but he has given me the title of Webpage Hog, the equivalent of being the webmaster. It is hands down the Internet's greatest source of information about the Washington Redskins.

Searching – The Pictorial
Keep in mind I did this back in college when I first learned how to design a website. Hey, I'm sure you've also done some silly things to get a little attention.

The ABCs of Sales
Slowly but surely I'm posting the methods and techniques of being an effective sales person. After spending nearly a decade in retail sales and half of those years in management, I might as well do something with what I've learned.

The Beauty Shop
Another one of the first websites I ever did back in my Aggie days.

You down with MSG?
I did a search for "What's in McDonald's French Fries?" Surprise! Surprise! This is about when I started getting a bit more curious about genetically modified foods and the effects of eating this fake Matrix-inspired food.

Zoloft Kills
They made me take the word Zoloft off the shirt, but you still get the drift. Once you realize the risks involved, you'll find out that taking Zoloft may be what's depressing people.

Who Are You, Really?
Another one of those kill time websites I started and still need to finish. I simply looked up the meaning of some of my friends' names and, well, I just posted them online.

My Warped View of the World
I kind of like how MSN does their blog sites. Maybe it's just the slideshow of photos. I wonder how many people lost their j-o-b-s just so Microsoft could offer this service?

The Original Home of The Realm
This link will lead you to a museum piece: the original look of The Realm when I first started designing it while attending North Carolina A&T State University.

Friendster
I wasn't gonna start doing these mini-personal ads, but damn it seems like all of you are doing it. Besides, I wanted everyone to see my "Live By The Bomb, Die By The Bomb" photo.

MySpace
Sometimes I wonder why I even participate with these types of websites, but I guess it's good for keeping connected with people I haven't seen in a minute. Note to CJ Cline: I feel your pain about those fake @ss friends.

Free Stuff
There's not much there now, but eventually I'll be adding more links to free stuff you can get from the Internet.
