I started this website as a means of letting people read my stories and see my art work. In 1995 I started collecting Hip-Hop slang from my students. They started teaching me a new expression every day. I thought it would be interesting to put the words up on the web in the form of an on-line dictionary. Vox Communications is the name of a company I started in 1994 that specialized in teaching people how to use the Internet. I teach Computer Science at Skyline High School in Oakland. The main purpose of this website is to entertain you: my friends and students around the world.
