I think number 2 should be a 3-way tie (Camden, NJ - Newark, NJ - Plainfield, NJ)

FBI recently released its list of the 25 most dangerous cities in the United States. The senseless violence is definitely getting out of hand nationwide. It’s time for a change!

Here’s the list:

1. St. Louis, MO
2. Camden, NJ
3. Detroit, MI
4. Flint, MI
5. Oakland, CA
6….

Maybe DC won’t make that list once they’re finish with gentrification. *one can only hope. Nowhere I frequent in DC is “dangerous” but its weird because the “projects” are randomly placed all throughout the district. I’ve walked past places where they use those big police lights in broad daylight - but you walk 4 blocks left or right and you’re near brand new expensive buildings with crazy amounts of amenities. gentrification is real. when are they going to start on baltimore? or is that where all the section 8 people are going to go once government tears their buildings down?

So last week I went to Prana Lounge in Bloomfield, NJ for Moscato Mondays. Very dope and intimate spot. I have been going on Fridays but Monday has a whole new atmosphere!

I think I am going tonight, gotta see if my club homie C (pictured goofy above) wants to roll through.

Shout out to Prana Lounge, DJ Reef, and Doon from AllEyesOnWho?

So on twitter some on said something about Plainfield, NJ Board of Education on Fox 5… I knew I was too late so I went to google “Plainfield BoE” and found:

MyCentralJersey.com — The controversy, first reported last year by the Courier News, involves high-ranking district administrators Lesly Borge and Lalelei Kelly. Union County Superintendent Carmen Centuolo in October 2009 asked the city School Board to rescind the contracts of both women, citing a lack of New Jersey certification. The board in November 2009 voted unanimously to do so, but also voted 6-1 to rehire both to different titles at salaries of a little more than $100,000. A subsequent Courier News investigation revealed that Borge and Kelly were full-time teachers in Florida before being hired in July 2008 as administrators here, both previously having worked in the same Miami district as current city Schools Superintendent Steve Gallon III.

More from the website — (Arnold) Diaz said Wednesday’s segment will cover the credentialing issue as well as “two different occasions when (Gallon) changed either job descriptions or job titles to allow them (Borge and Kelly) to continue earning six-figure salaries.” Diaz said he attempted to speak with all three officials on camera, but Borge and Kelly declined to be interviewed and Gallon only agreed to speak with him “after running from us twice.”

MYFOXNY.COM — A school superintendent in Plainfield, N.J., is under investigation based on some allegations of fraud and theft by deception. In the middle of it all, are two women hired for top dollar.

Fox 5’s Arnold Diaz is on the case in this Shame investigation. He tried to get some answers from the two women as well as the superintendent.

Check out this song about Plainfield by my friend T.J.

TJ is a Plainfield resident, like me, and a Plainfield High School class of 2006 graduate, also like me, who made an amazing song about problems in Plainfield, NJ (NSFW) It has STRONG LANGUAGE used in context!

My favorite line is near the end when TJ, better known as True Lies, states:

“We don’t get noticed / I swear I need a way out / ‘Cause all they care about is the Drake House”

I checked my last blog and I made it just over 23 hours ago so I can still count this in my day of being serious!

WOW, that last post about my dad pushed my blog into the top US tumblr blogs… I am not at #18,778… not sure what that is now…

Anyways, I owe an apology to all my friends.. for the last few years I have been locking myself in my room… just not wanting to embrace the world…

I just had somethings start bothering me again… like my father but writing about him made me feel much better.

I have also be picking friends I want to bring with me as I become a man… Just yesterday I personally let someone know I had to let them go… Team Taiwan has made many cuts this year… I hope for the better since I can now really count all the people I call best friends on one hand…

I’m not going to officially count the 400 facebook friends or 10,000 myspace friends…  though I like being able to express something and get feed back… plus meeting up with complete strangers is fun too… (don’t jugde me… lol)

Everyone says I never get serious… and was shocked at my last post… but I just wanted to say that whole thing was just cause insurance is very important… and he could have called…

I forgive my dad for what I have been through… from my understanding, not forgiving someone is the only way the Lord will deny entrance to heaven. Makes since because He gave His physical life and all we have to go is change our mental state of thought towards a person. I hope my dad forgives me for things I have done.

I’m fine might go to the movies… not gonna sit around and think about someone who damn sure doesn’t think of me… haha I’m just going to file my dad under ex-girlfriends.

I also got some links on NJ charity care, might make some contacts but to be honest I don’t want to know what it is… (RE last blog).

PS: whos this in my website log from florida? I need to to help me find a missing person. :(
