My story starts out just like any other. I was born a poor, black child in the hills of Kentucky. Somehow, I grew up to become a young man with obsessions for the obscure and ridiculous while trying to live my life on a daily basis for something beyond my own self-absorption. I could say that I one day I hope to turn this into a nexus for my fame and glory found on the Internet, which will in turn be used for my running for President and subsequently appointing Jay-Z as the nation’s poet laureate. But in all seriousness, I’m just doing what I know how to do and hopefully a lot more. Expect my ramblings on faith, politics, music, movies, and the randomness God throws into the mix.Tumblr (3.0; @logandavis)http://mynameislogan.com/<img src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kz2pea76SF1qzpwi0o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><b>Dave MacDowell:</b> “<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/sacamoto2003/4421953721/">Lord of the Onion Rings</a>”</p> <p>This is an accurate reenactment of my last visit to Burger King.
