Review: Mindi Abair’s "Come As You Are"

With the advent of Minidi’s new cd “Come As You Are” we see a woman who has grown into her music, and not afraid of experimenting with something different. As with her last album, “It Just Happens That Way”, the first song starts off with how the rest of the CD will go. This time … 

 

Sex In High School

Should kids (yes teenagers are kids!!!!) be having sex in high school? No. I don’t care if it “feels good”, “others are doing it” or what not. Procreation is what sex is for. But kids today are using it as another tool for neglecting their bodies. Here is my solution: No contraceptives given to kids …

Life, Debt, and Religion

Apparently the association of debt doesn’t mean much to me… though for school I am starting to sink into it more and more. Not too much of a problem, as I will most likely be able to find a good job after I graduate in either the Criminal Justice, or the Computer Science Fields. If …
