What is y-our Power Draw?
An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of humanity. ~ Martin Luther King Jr. A power draw in pool is a draw shot where significant ball speed and spin is required. What...
Soul Survivor Sunday
From a very young age, I’ve always been drawn to story telling, especially those about the underdog, probably because I’ve always been labeled that way growing up. On the weekends when I would travel to NYC to see my mom, while I would wait for her to come meet me, I...
Free Style
It’s about flowing with the water. It's also about celebrating that wonderful time of fire on the beach with a crazy dance of words and freestyle poetic rhythm. A movie scene that illustrates my vision of the meaning of Free Style would be this one: I like the moment...
