Waking
Brick House you can’t blow me down. I’ve built these walls too high. Goliath himself would have a hard time with my tenacious fortitude. Too many men have tried to break me. Too many have succeeded Left seeded in my chest a flower so violent even wasps don’t get near. For I am too sweet and they over feed. I take everything Leave nothing. Just bugs to be squashed ...

LOGO TV: 1 girl 5 gays
When I first stumbled upon this show on LOGO, I swore it was just another show to attract more heterosexual females to the channel. It was not a bad thing, really. I believed enough people in society knew that sometimes women enjoy watching prancing drag queens, heart-wrenching gay romances and the occasional slasher movie. After watching an episode, I still was not certain because the show was...

Hands of the creator
I suspect this time, my fingers have gone to far. They reached inside, pulled out something grotesque, mangled dead. But they became Frankenstein. Brought life, rushed blood. Like the monster it rose, skin glowing with each subtle jolt. Now alive it throbbed. So the fingers rushed to please mad they became Original Article

On the News: Chick-Fil-A
Have you heard about or eaten at this food chain? It looks like now we should be more aware of what different businesses stand for.

Now that the norm is becoming an undergraduate degree, companies are ruling out 70% of the domestic population that does not possess a bachelor’s degree (http://www.census.gov/newsroom/releases/archives/education/cb12-33.html).

Employers that want the most engaged and...
I have always believed that people are more motivated, creative, engaged, and loyal when they feel as though their skills and contributions are valued and respected. These factors create a satisfying and fulfilling environment that is more likely to foster cooperation and teamwork — these are some of the elements that help companies meet (or exceed) their goals and objectives.

It's OK to Swing Both Ways
“You just don’t know what you want.” “You are just a selfish person.” “You still blend in with the heterosexuals. It’s not fair.” “You have to pick! There is no way you can fall in love and enjoy sex with men AND women.” “You must be loose.” Bisexuality— Doesn’t those comments sound familiar? Every sexuality has its own judgments and complete misunderstandings....
