As far as instruments go, I love the piano, sax, and bass guitar. In my music section there will also be clips of music that I am currently listening to. I plan to change these frequently, so be sure to stop by every now and then.

• THE CONCIOUS RASTA - Latex condoms have become covert weapons in the war against fertility; on the sexual organs of "ruffnecks" they are damaging a young girl's most sensitive body organ. Condoms have never been effective at eliminating true infectious venereal diseases or genuine systemic infectious agents; they don't proscribe condoms for the flu season or measles -- it is a birth control device and simply that. An increasing number of surgeons are complaining that they can no longer work with latex gloves on due to a large number of allergic reactions, they are switching to polyurethane gloves. Latex condoms are lubricated with Nonoxyl 9 which contains the deadly poisonous hydrocarbon-based (petroleum) chemical nonyl phenol; this chemical interrupts the body's endocrine system, potentially leading to cancers of the breast, ovaries and cervix, as well as fibroid tumors and endometriosis -- leading to hysterectomy. Nonyl phenol is a smooth textured binder used in cosmetics, paint, dishwashing liquid, spermicides and other products; it mimics the action of the female hormone estrogen which undermines a man's androgen hormones leading to femininization.

Nearly all brands of condoms contain the dry lubricant magnesium silicate (talcum powder) which is the
equivalent of minute particles of sand or glass; talc has been shown to migrate up into a woman's
fallopian tubes where it can cause an inflammation thereby causing the formation of a granuloma
(cancer) and sterility; users should switch to condoms which use cornstarch instead of talcum powder.

The best condom to use for birth control is made of polyurethane, it's the one that the Japanese
manufacture for their own public to use; Japan has experienced a frighteningly low birthrate which the
country is now attempting to reverse.

Their struggles and sacrifice make it possible for a "sistah" to be a CEO, a best-selling novelist, record-breaking athlete, a spirit-filled evangelist, or just a single mother fighting the odds.

seem to have found the perfect utopian existance...but who is in control? Using experimental non-linear narrative 
and varying points of view, Dominion becomes multi-faceted and complex, driven by suspense and violence, 
deception, and a struggle for understanding and control.

• MISS SEXY RED - So, you want to know more about the beautiful young lady featured above, correct?

 - By Aaron McGruder. / Aaron McGruder (me) is a currently a world reknown "playa hata" since he dissed Sean Puffy Combs two months consecutively in The Source magazine. He (kinda) graduated from the University of Maryland with a degree in Afro-American studies with a concentration in Social and Cultural Analysis, and has no intention of ever returning to school for a graduate degre of any sort (that is, of course, unless this whole cartoon thing doesn't work out). When not cartooning he (I) can be found stressing and waiting impatiently by the phone for his lawyer to call (hi Stephen). He has no BMW, no Benz, not a single article of clothing from Versace or FUBU, and no life as a result. Occasionally he can be heard co-hosting the Soul Controller Mix Show on 88.1 WMUC College Park, Maryland. Aaron (me) has an unhealthy and expensive affinity for Star Wars merchandise and Japanese Animation, and he's a Gemini. What's worse, he fell in with the wrong crowd in college and currently suffers from an addiction to dry "LIFE" cereal. Basically,
he's got problems, but most of the time he's a pretty nice guy.
