Black Surfing Association

Ok so I have been working on my company image. I been trying to gather support from different associations. I figure if there is other black surfers out there besides me maybe I will have a descent business. I hooked up with some website that had the Black Surfing Association. I go get all my friends and we race down to Bay St. in Santa Monica. As we hit the sand my eyes grew bigger as before was the most beautiful site I had ever seen. There were blacks in the water surfing and frollicking everywhere. I ran home afterwards and sent an email to the only available addressee, I wanted to be a part of something great!

Now this is what I got. I called to schedule an appointment to talk with the founder. His secretary was not quite as lovely as Tony. I only imagined that she thought me someone less than herself. At the advice of my partner I went to meet him anyway. I met with the BSA founder Tony Corley, had a nice talk with him. He was a nice looking older gentleman with great presence. I instantly liked him. We spoke about what the BSA was about and so forth, he asked where I thought the association could go. I advised him everything was cool.

"Black Unity" I was so excited I could hardly wait for the next step.

I get into a complete mess. I withdrew my bid to help any further. Some shear shadiness was coming to the head. OH YES IT DID! Months passed and I laid low. I remember the first gentleman saying he had a group so I signed up for the group. No sooner than I lay the first post on January 1st introducing myself, here comes the BSA founder countering every move I tried to make, This is SUPPOSED to be an association for black surfer to network and get to know one another. I post for different positions I had open within my company and then it hits...he asks if I need him on a project against my better judgement I call him and offer him a role over the phone...The next thing I knew I was being attacked on my religious beliefs..a tiki god? come the frick on now...a tiki god? and christianity ok where the hell do those two meet I am not sure, but what I do know is there are ancient Hawaiian tiki gods that protect surfers...READING is so elementary. Had he known anything of the Hawaiian legends or for that matter how to not be judgemental on something he volunteered for he wouldn't have looked so stupid to his fellow association members. My religious beliefs have nothing to do with who or where I surf.

I wasn't going to take that sh*t lying down so I simply stated that if he had any disagreement with the character he should have said something to me while he was supposed to be recording his voice and sending it to me. It's a shame blacks can't seem to get their sh*t together and when they see someone trying to do their thing other blacks feel so inclined to frick it up.

I stay strong because people like that area dime a dozen. As fo rthe Black Surfing Association I have since left that organization and i swear I will tell the world of the falsehoods and misnomers that it represents.

Nissan did a mural on the founder but what did he find...30 years and hardly a member....go figure.

As for me, I will keep fighting to get the real black surfers noticed and the fake ones blown out of the water!

We are now in busniess!

I heard thru the grapevine that someone had been using my name. So yesterday I went down to make sure my name is protected. After a 2 hour wait, I found out that I was indeed covered. I was pretty excited. My business partner however was ready to cuss out the entire world.

At any rate we are now up and running.
