In my 'shaken state,' I started to wonder what King would do. What would Martin Luther King Jr. do if he was around in the 21st century, in the age of AIDS, The Tea Party, and so called 'post-racism?'

'The (Holiday) Bermuda Triangle' - the time between the Thanksgiving and Christmas/Chanukah (and Kwanzaa) holidays, usually ending somewhere after the New Year...'the Triangle' is the time where there are casualties; people 'missing in action.' "The Triangle" is no joke, a real "mutha" for many.

I took for granted that now that the 'hiv' was 'playing nice,' I can keep it moving. Nothing else could happen... I didn't see this 'surge' coming... I had my own storm.

It's summer in New York City, and when you think of summer in New York, you think of... the subway.

Even on my birthday, I am given signposts as gifts. So I want to honor my mentor, a fellow Taurean, who was a teacher, who is now a guidepost on my trek, that comes one birthday at a time.

Here is the manuscript I composed for the press conference. I rather speak extemporaneously, with an outline to maybe guide me, but I wanted to make sure I said all I wanted to in the little time they were giving me.

Please forgive me for being a bit tardy with my entry - I was caught in what a social worker dreads: The "Pre-Audit Vortex." It's a monster, especially when you are anticipating the program's first audit. (Can I get a witness?!)
