Sometimes I Feel Like a Nut
It seems strange when a person likes to do research on a subject and the tell the world what they have found out. I am that type of person but their is one big difference that I have than the rest of those type of people. I will write it in stone and put the information on film. Maybe I am a black Michael Moore, HA!HA!HA! I have decided to not only produce and write movies with other themes but the documentary will be the most informative. Next year when I find time, one of the documentaries will be the history of slavery and how it shaped America. I have thanks to my English glass for that one. When we talked about race and slavery came up in the conversation, transpired a great debate on some companies that began from slave money. I was sort of shocked that some people did not know about these companies. Since not many people know about these companies, I think a documentary should inform them about this issue. Like I said in one of my other blogs, if you knew about these companies you would fall out of your seats. I am not trying to hurt any one but I believe that there should not be any hidden history. All history should be told, as long it is the truth and the history can be investigated by everyone. All links to the information given should be open to the public so they can find out for themselves.
A Fight For My Life
This semester started out well until I had another diabetes attack. Since my sugar level went up to 394 my body have felt a weakness that is out of this world. It feels like someone have drained all of the energy out of me. My legs aches from the knee down to my feet. Sometimes it feels like someone put rubber bands around my knees so my circulation will not go down to my bottom legs. For the last few weeks I have been stuck in the bed and have falling behind on all of my work. I am desperately trying to keep up with my studies but I am more determined than ever. I am so mad at my body or what I might say the devil. It might seem strange to anyone else but I think the devil has a lot to do with my sickness. Ever time I am about to accomplish a feat something always happens. Not this time I will not let anything get in my way this this time. The devil is a lie and the truth is not in him. I know God will help me graduate and accomplish all of my goals. I am a firm believer in God and Jesus. I have prayed about this and I have confermation from both of them. I will reach my goals with all of their help, regardless of my sickness, weaknesses and getting behind in my work. I will become successful with my company, school, family, and everything else that I want to accomplish in my life. Praise God and Hallelujah!

A Little Confused!
Right now I am very confused about this summer. If I go to summer school my time at U of Memphis will be a lot shorter. I have 2 choices that will probably change my life. I will graduate, if I work very hard and if I go to summer school, in December 2008. Then again if I wait and do not go to summer school, I will graduate the spring of 2009. This summer I plan to work on my movie projects and start my production company. If I go to school this summer my company will be harder to start. I will not have enough time to actually work and began working on my projects. I know it takes time to begin a business but this summer could really make my career shoot off like a rocket. The other problem is I am tired of school. I would like to get it over with and graduate this fall. I hate making these decisions. There is hope. I just want to do the right thing. This choice could make me or break me. What I am afraid of is if I do not keep going to school I might not go back and finish and if I put off my career I might lose my inspiration to create art in movie making. There is one thing for sure about this summer. I am going to work out as much as possible so I can look decent in film. Does anyone else have any good advice for me.

Still is not a Racist
Although a person did give a good definition on racism, Kaynye did not say that blacks are more superior than whites. Wendy did not however discuss the other comments about the Katrina tragedy and how other people used the statement "White people." I would not use that sort of language but sometime you have to understand what the person meant in that situation. Of course I would hate to repeat myself but I do not think some people read or heard what was said in my blog. When the Indians use that same dialect in history nothing is said. Some Indians use those words when they talk about their history. Please watch the history channel. They have a history documentary on early America. The show was called 500 Nations. I still do not think the Indians used the words " White man." as a racist statement. They were angry and they had a right to be angry. Terry Bradshaw saw the Katrina issue as a racial problem also. The way as Kanye did and Terry was not called a racist. What if you find out the truth about New Orleans and the devastating loss of lives that occurred during Katrina? You just might say that this was a big racial issue in America. Kanye should have said it a lot clearer and nicer but I do not think he is a racist. The ones who allowed people to parish in this horror are the real racist.
Working On My Web Page
The other day I decided to work on a web page for my company. A friend of mine who I used to work with and a former college classmate will help me. I thought this would be easy. It is not as easy as I thought. The name of the company will be BOATWRIGHT PRODUCTIONS. I have a large arrange of movies that will be produced. I will film and produce and act in almost every type of movie with the exception of porn. I am into horror, drama, mystery, documentaries, action, phenomena and weird sightings. My biggest problem is finding a logo for my company. With a name like Boatwright, it seems that a logo should be easy to find. Maybe a large boat sailing the seas drifting to the right. Baring over trouble waters but surviving the high waves and coming to a stop in a mystical island. This summer will be the hardest work I have ever done because I will work my butt off to start my own business. I am working on projects but I can not put my full effort because I am behind on my studies. So people if you have any ideas on my logo, please give me some input.
My Paper
I have decided to do something very risky but I hope this works out. I have decided to start my paper over in some places. Instead of talking about consolidation my paper will become a work about property taxes. I have more information on property taxes then consolidation. Most of the businesses in West Memphis, Arkansas pays property taxes to Marion, Arkansas. The county seat claims that the sales taxes stays in West Memphis, Arkansas but I have proof that they are wrong. I have spoken with a city tax collector in Little Rock, Arkansas and the laws changed during the late 80s. I should have updated these figures earlier and changed my paper at a better time but I work better under pressure. I will probably work all night on this paper and all weekend for the entire paper. Work does not bother me but diabetes will be under control in a few days. This will make me work habit better than ever. Maybe the districts changed there line on property taxes but that was not the issue. The district line had been the same for years. The money changed hands in the small government system in West Memphis, Arkansas. This will be brought up in the next election. It is funny how a project can change an entire county. Wendy I did not use this as a revenge message. I am a film producer and some of my works tells the truth. I will let the people decide what they want to do with the truth.
Maybe We Should Investigate!
It seems as if no one likes to do research on certain subjects. The other day in class I made a statement about companies that were build from slavery. Some people started to criticize the statement but they would fall out of their seats if they knew the truth. They have to understand that I like to research on different subjects. At first a history teacher told me about these companies. I was like some of the class members. I did not want to believe that certain companies were built from slavery. Well, I did research on my own and I had some help from history instructors. Let it be known. The stories that some of the companies had told the public was not true. The companies that the person named was built from old slave money. The people who did not believe me really need to investigate this for themselves. There is nothing wrong with these companies. I found out that some other companies of today were built from drug trafficking and other unfamiliar cases. One company that I really look up to is Miramax. Miramax in the early 80s made there first money from porn. Yes the great company that filmed and produced some of the greatest movies of our time also produced x-rated films back in the day. Although some companies were built from strange business ventures from the past does not make the company a bad one. Always remember do research before you disagree with a person. If you do not believe a person, investigate and research their statement and prove them wrong, if it means so much to you. I DARE YOU. The only reason why I say these things is to teach people the truth. If I just tell them the truth they will never know the truth but if the person who do not believe me please investigate for themselves then they can not call themselves a lie.
