Introducing the first 2009 model Ashley
Saturday, December 20th, 2008Written by Michael Vass
Just in time for the start of the New Year, M V Consulting Inc. presents our first model Ashley France. The latest shoot covered a multitude of the products found at our online store, but by no means did it cover all 1500 items that can be found for men, women, White, […]
A rapper with charity: T.I. and Thanksgiving in Atlanta
Friday, November 28th, 2008Written by Michael Vass
I have a problem. As is well known to long-time readers of my blogs, I don’t like gangsta rap. I find the music to be repetitive, pro-violence, pro-drug, pro-illiteracy, pro-death. I find the entertainers to be some of the worst examples of what (primarily but not exclusively) Black men are and can […]
Tiger Woods and GM, Citigroup and the Mets
Monday, November 24th, 2008Written by Michael Vass
Today all eyes are pointing towards Citigroup and what they have been doing, or failing to do. Thousands have lost their jobs, tens of billions of dollars are being poured into the company. And unlike AIG, Citigroup is not sending their employees to luxury spas for a breather. Nor are they giving […]
Holiday gift ideas – from M V Consulting, Inc.
Friday, November 21st, 2008Written by Michael Vass
I recently displayed the new Wanna Ride? line of clothing at my online store (www.cafepress.com/nova68). And I promised that there would be more on the way. I always work hard to live up to my promises.
So in addition to the Wanna Ride? selection of mousepads, coffee mugs, t-shirts, Teddy bears, […]
Spike Lee ignores racial diversity
Friday, November 7th, 2008Written by Michael Vass
I love the film work of Spike Lee. I like the fact he takes on controversial topics. But his politics are something else.
I am a Black Republican. I support Republican ideals. You know, things like if you work hard you deserve to keep more of what you earn. Being self-responsible instead of […]
Curt Hocker - golfing beyond the odds
Friday, November 7th, 2008Written by Michael Vass
For all the golfers out there, how many of you ever hit a hole in one? I don’t know anyone that has, and I know maybe 100 golfers who have played they game for a combined total of 1,000 years. The closest I personally have ever gotten was 48” on a 125yd […]

Over 200,000 people voted […]
Career choices - play Guitar Hero or be a comatose lemming
Tuesday, August 19th, 2008Written by Michael Vass
In-between the latest bit of ambulance chasing news of Greta Van Sustern (in my opinion), and the various spills of the Olympics I ran across the possibly most idiotic piece of new of the year (to date anyway). What could be worse than Greta reporting endlessly on news events that the majority […]
Spain’s Olympic basketball team - Racism in your face
Wednesday, August 13th, 2008Written by Michael Vass
**also found at Breaking News Blog**
It really just floors me. At a time when the world is looking at China, as they hold the Olympics, and seeing the mixing of every culture on the planet we still get to learn about how insensitive humanity can be.
Racism, and insults based solely in race, […]
Brawlin’at the Belmar - my first BMX Pro-Am dirt jumping tournament
Tuesday, August 12th, 2008Written by Michael Vass
Over the weekend I had the chance to watch America rise to the challenge. I wasn’t watching the Olympics, or the news on Iraq and/or Afghanistan. I wasn’t at a movie. I was watching a BMX competition – Brawlin’ at the Belmar.
I’ll say it again, I was watching teens and young men […]
Potential football stars that already shine
Friday, July 18th, 2008Written by Michael Vass
Football is an America standard. Its fans are at least as passionate as any baseball fan, devoted more than in basketball, and the most intense game for players from the earliest grades. Fathers rarely stand prouder than when their son throws the winning touchdown pass, or catches it – even though if […]
Sunday thinking of Dad
Sunday, July 13th, 2008Written by Michael Vass
I’ve had an odd day this Sunday. The early part was spent cleaning my house, seeing what else is going onto my growing list of little things to fix. I took a break to watch some of the news about Tony Snow. It’s a shame he died so young. My condolences to […]
Your Keyboard is a Bacteria Farm
Monday, May 19th, 2008For those of us who eat at our desks, you are probably feeding germs besides feeding yourself. I was recently reading an article which convinced me how bad of a habit it is.
Several recent studies have indicated that there are more germs on office keyboards then there are on office toilet seats. Sounds bad but […]
