  • Good Tuesday Afternoon!!!

    Meet KAREN WHITMIRE SAVAGE.

    Today at Barrington Middle School, Hillsborough
    County Public School System (FL); art teacher Karen Savage wrapped a charger cord around the neck of a Black Baby Doll, and;  hung it directly over the classroom TV for the entire WORLD to witness.


    VIDEO shows the Black Baby Doll swinging. When the CHILDREN asked, “WHY?!?!?,” she LAUGHED.

    Her excuse to the CHILDREN was, “to get their attention.”

    This is NOT a Classroom Teaching – Learning Moment.

    THIS is HATE.

    Karen Whitmire Savage should IMMEDIATELY be FIRED.

    – CCG

    P.S.;

    Ya Boy CCG would NOT be disappointed if Mrs. SAVAGE was ARRESTED.

  • If you could erase one movie from your memory and watch it again for the first time, which one would it be?

    Good Monday!!!

    There actually is NO reason to erase ANY movies from MY memory to watch again for the FIRST time. The reasoning is, movies I love, I really, REALLY love. So, I could watch them several times over for the FIRST time.

    I could list SEVERAL films across a variety of genres to satisfy THIS question asked by the Daily Prompt.

    However; here are, “5 Movies I could Erase from My Memory, and Watch Again for the First Time.”

    1. Cooley High

    2. Cornbread,  Earl, & Me

    3. Training Day

    4. The Wiz

    5. Black Panther

    NOW; “If YOU could erase one movie from YOUR memory and watch it AGAIN for the FIRST time, WHICH one would it be?”

  • How do you stay motivated when learning something new?

    Generally; for as long as I can remember (my memory is fairly extensive), STAYING MOTIVATED has been the ABSOLUTE “bane of my existence.”

    Both SELF-MOTIVATION, and; PROCRASTINATION, have been nearly lifelong, insurmountable challenges.

    It’s probably the PRIMARY reason why I never felt compelled to tryout for school sports teams, complete college, advocate for workplace promotions,  or; adhere to ANY types of deadlines.

    Back to the question asked by the  Daily Prompt, “How do you Stay Motivated when Learning Something New?”

    Like many BLACK MEN, one of my most significant challenges to curating a more purposefully- driven life, is taking care of my health.

    For over 35 years; Ya Boy CCG has been living with diagnoses of Diabetes, later Hypertension, then later; Neuropathy. More recently, 20 yr diagnosis of Anxiety, Depression,  and; PTSD.

    Friday, June 26, 2020, is now my SECOND BIRTHDAY. That date is when I began living my NEW NORMAL. Once AGAIN, I had to learn to Get/ Stay Motivated when Learning Something New ⬇️👇🏾⬇️👇🏾⬇️👇🏾

    September 2005, CCG arrived in Atlanta due to evacuating my home in New Orleans because of Hurricane Katrina.

    About 5 weeks from today will be the 5-yr anniversary of the aforementioned health issues leading to my Left Leg Above Knee Amputation (LLAKA) at what WAS Atlanta Medical Center a.k.a AMC (R.I.P. AMC), Boulevard Avenue location, ATL, GA.

    This month is the 4-yr anniversary of my appointment with ProCare Prosthetics and Orthotics, Midtown/ Buckhead ATL,  to pickup my shiny, brand-spankin’ new, prosthetic leg.

    April was the 4-yr anniversary of a NEW infection on the sole of my RIGHT foot costing my Right Pinky Toe at Grady Memorial Hospital (a.k.a. GMH, or, Grady), Downtown ATL, GA. 

    Doctors advised, upon inpatient discharge, I would require an additional 8 – 10 wks of IV Antibiotic Treatment.  However,  it would NOT require additional hospitalization. Could receive care at home, or, nursing care facility.

    Opted for facility care. Other complications have made HERE where I continue to reside. 

    The real struggle is maintaining motivation to create a Regular Fitness Routine. Doing so will TREMENDOUSLY aide in successfully WALKING on my prosthetic leg.

    Does ANYONE have any suggestions which might assist with my never-ending journey/ struggle???

    AGAIN; Back to the Daily Prompt, “HOW do YOU Stay Motivated when Learning Something New?”

    I Love You.

    Laissez Les Bons Temps Rouler, Fam!!!
