2011 has been quite the year, hasn’t it? It was the year of the revolution and the year of the protestor. We saw deaths of Bin Laden and Gadhafi along with the Occupy Wall Street movement. In addition, we saw stories about the Royal Wedding, the Casey Anthony trial, Steve Jobs, the shaky economy, and the earthquakes of Japan. Between that and stories about Kim Kardashian, Rebecca Black, and Charlie Sheen, there was a lot that happened this year.

With 2011 winding down (which I still can’t believe), I wanted to take a look at where I’ve been.

Now how’s that for persistence?”

J. Cole on “God’s Gift

Whatup world? What’s gravitatin’?? Once again, you know what it is…the single spot on the entire planet where you can get deep within my head and view it for all its worth (I keep getting more and more disgusting with each month, don’t I? LoL). I guess that’s appropriate with Halloween right behind us. But yes, welcome one and welcome all to the Ajaxxx.com Opinions Column. I’ve got lots and lots to ramble on about, so I hope you’ve got your popcorn ready. It’s gonna’ be an interesting column (as always!).
