KICKS: THE GREAT AMERICAN STORY OF SNEAKERS👟 

The mid sized book to the left of me is an overall timeline explanation of how shoes came to be, where it came from, and what it evolved into. After reading this book, I felt like I was the next best shoe don on the scene. It's different when you get the history of these things that we take for granted. Materialistic things are an always will be just that; materialistic. However, I'd be lying if I said that materialistic things weren't a mandatory add on of our lives. 

People create materials through the use of more materials to create even better materials. Shoes are one of the best materialistic inventions to ever be created by humans. Materials grow, evolve, and adapt to our needs. Shoes have helped many over the years of its discovery. I'm glad to have been brought up during a time when shoes were fully developed and optimized to meet the needs of people. 

Athletic shoes, dress shoes, boots, and all types of footwear are quite the invention. Shoes are such a high asset, that pop culture, sports culture, and marketing culture in the US was influenced by it. Lives have been changed with the use of shoes. Author Nicholas Smith does a great job to explain and layout the sequence of shoes and its evolution.  This piece gets a 10/10 on my part. For anyone interested in reading, I definitely recommend.

CannaComps Reviews: Badd News

  BADD NEWS CANNABIS " MIXING THE OLD WITH THE NEW " That's the motto for BaddNewsSeed. Hailing from Florida, this grower produces some of the freshest cannabis you'll see in the south.

My Personal Experience As a Bud Tender

Working as a Bud Tender in the corporate cannabis industry was a lot different than I thought it would be.  I wanted to break into the industry as a Cannabis Sales Representative and decided that the best way for me to follow that path would be to work at a Medical Dispensary. I thought that it would be a great learning opportunity and a strong base for me to start with. After working at the dispensary for a month I realized just how low leaning  occupations like this could be. It was no different than what you'd find at your typical retail center. Cash registers, useless managers, bogus work schedules that weren't even organized, and even lazier coworkers.  Working for the medical cannabis industry was by far one of the best ideas I've had in a long while. The only problem is working something as low on the food chain as a Budtender. Positions  like that could really discourage those who are seeking to join the industry.  The gig as a clinical account represent...

Reviews by Pancho @ "As A Black Man Thinketh" By Reggie Whittaker

As A Black Man Thinketh ට This journal-sized book follows a very close POV style look at the Authors life and what he's been through over the years. He shines a light on common issues that black men go through living in America. Throughout the book, the audience is given a deeper insight into Whittaker's life when he explains his time being incarcerated in the jail system along with his marital issues. I really like this book because the author uses himself as an example that he can learn from and analyze with care.  I personally resonated with some of the upbringings that he endured while being a child of black parents in America.  Whittaker's ability to be as unbiased as possible makes him the perfect teacher to talk about common issues that aren't discussed enough within a race. We must not focus on the past, but in order to solve a multigenerational problem, one must learn to backtrack, hoping to see where the problem lies and where edits can be made.  The subtitle ...
