 REST IN PEACE SHOUTS SHALL GO OUT TO . . .

HEY ! CONSIDER THIS REST-IN-PEACE SHOUTOUT ONE TO END MANY REST IN PEACE SHOUTOUTS ! IT'S LIKE "ABC" - EASY AS 1-2-3 !
What tens of millions of fans worldwide just witnessed is the death of a legendary star that may temporarily end the deaths of thousands of other legendary stars in the world of music. No it NEVER resulted from a pool of "Blood On The Dance Floor", but because there were those who asked if "You Wanna Be Starting Something", it took more than a "Thriller" in Manila to show the haters once again who's "Bad" ! This man with a thinly-built frame, originally from Gary, Indiana and had lived until his time came in Greater Los Angeles, California, could have been a "Smooth Criminal", basically due to his way of living "Off The Wall" if he wanted to. Because after starring as the Scarecrow in "The Wiz" and before he became a "Moonwalker", he could have went out on dates with "Dirty Diana", "Billie Jean" and that "P.Y.T - Pretty Young Thing". But instead of taking it to that level, he decided to start with "The Man In The Mirror", become "Just Good Friends" with comrade and former musical archrival Stevie Wonder, show his "Human Nature", and later in his years, "Heal The World". WHAT THE HEELLL ?!!!! He came from a large musical family, made the people "Scream" with sister Janet, teamed up with brothers Jermaine, Tito, Jackie, and Marlon to see if "Can U Feel It" and "Make Him Feel Like Dancin", and made pets out of a llama and a chimpanzee named Bubbles. Later in his years the master of the Moonwalk designed the Neverland zoo/ranch in the metro Los Angeles. DIZZAMN! Was I personally able to "Remember The Time" back when he thought about wanting to remain "Dangerous". But in his words, that was "The Way You Made Me Feel". This superstar, after his many different battles in court, his personal beef with sister LaToya back in the early 90s, his on/off again relationships with parents Joe and Katherine, the hair-related accident he suffered while rehearsing on stage, the good old-fashioned stories of the hyperbaric oxygen chamber later leading to a number of facelifts and skin-bleaching, and the raising of two children of his own with a female companion and girlfriend named Debbie Rowe. That made him felt like he had "Butterflies" around his persona, enough for him to come up with an album that made him feel like he was truly "Invincible". Michael Jackson, at age 50 you're another legend who ended up taking the fall due to cardiac arrest, and with "Thriller" rated the all-time album sales champion and "Dangerous" being #3 on that list, you are one true-to-life legend, and even five-year old kids will remember the name when THEY start to say "Hee Hee Heeeeee" , "WOOOOOO", and "MAMASAY MAMASAH MAMACUSAH !" ANOTHER THING: Be sure to have his recent docudrama, "This Is It !"

This soul, gospel, blues, and R&B singer from the late 60s-mid 80s, a "Real" one from Greenville, SC; one who knows how we can all "Get On The Good Foot" after a few minutes "Into The Hot Tub", and can take on those who's willing to give him some "Static" . . . James Brown, who passed away due to a chronic illness at age 60. You will be well remembered, Godfather Of Soul, and as many of his fans cheered long after that 1968 show in Boston, "SAY IT LOUD . . . I'M BLACK AND I'M PROUD !" SHOULDN'T WE ALL ? 

One special rest in peace shout will go out to a longtime Baltimore female DJ (or disc jockey), one who was discovered to have the know-how to spin the "single-doubles", or as other DJs would coin it, "the ones and twos". Known as "The Club Queen", she started off at a club outside the city, then blew up like the bomb that leveled the Murrah federal building in Oklahoma City or a United Nations base in the Middle East or in Africa. She later became the main attraction at a local radio station, spinning the hottest club, house, and hip-hop records in the city at first. Then on an invite, she did a multitude of parties and festivals in Philadelphia and in New Jersey, and had sold close to 75,000 mix CDs and tapes. She had did a session during her stint at Baltimore's fabulous Artscape festival, and was set for an afterparty at her home when she accidentally dived into shallow water at her swimming pool, suffering traumatic injuries to both her head and her neck, leading to her death at age 29. To Khia "DJ K-Swift" Edgerton, if Mount Rushmore had an extra space for another head to be carved, or if the Sandtown Wall Of Fame had another face to be painted on it, it would be yours ! Simply put, you will NEVER be forgotten !  

And as if enough rest in peace shoutouts wouldn't put us all in STATIC SHOCK - NO ! Let me rephrase that, a LIFETIME TASER SHOCK - this Chicago homeboy was a legendary item when he first came onto the scene, at either BET's Comic View or HBO's Def Comedy Jam. He would make sexual jokes, then call up a spectator to ask him a question related to what a man & woman would do in bed, and after minutes of debating and seconds of confusion in the mix, he would yell out "YOU WOULDN'T UNDASTAND IT !" Years later he would become a movie star, being the first to coin the term "boodiussy" in the Bill Bellamy movie "How To Be A Player ?". He later starred in his own show before succumbing to pneumonia and other illnesses at age 50. Bernard McCullough, aka "Bernie Mac",  starred alongside Chris Rock in "Head Of State", then he was featured posthumously in his last movie, "Soul Men", with Samuel L. Jackson. He will be remembered, so, the question is: do you believe that "YOU WOULD UNDASTAND IT"? 

Another one to be remembered is a Grammy award winner soul/R&B artist with a will to "Give Me The Reason" to love him back, "Here and Now", and having the will to unleash the "Power Of Love", but  "Never Too Much", besides, he certainly wasn't crazy enough to make me "Dance With My Father" : Luther Vandross, who died in 2004 at age 54. Consider him an all-time legend ! 

There is more to come when it deals with the myriad of famous stars resting in peace, such as actors Paul Newman, Richard Pryor, Jet Li, and Heath Ledger; novelist Alice Walker from "The Color Purple", author, playwright, and Duke University historian John Hope Franklin, business icon John H. Johnson from the hair and cosmetics business Ultra Sheen/Johnson Products of Chicago. Then there are the singers Rick James, Isaac Hayes, Eartha Kitt, and Gerald Levert of the O'Jays. Then there was the hip-hop producer Jason "Jam Master Jay" Mizell of Run-DMC, and hip-hop artists Russel "Old Dirty Bastard" Jones of the Wu-Tang Clan, MC Breed, Pimp C from the Underground Kingz (UGK) of Houston, Deshaun "Proof" Holton from the Eminem-affiliated group D12 from Detroit, and local Baltimore artist Mista Wilson. Pope John Paul II passed away before his time in the Vatican, at age 85, but worldwide he will not be forgotten as the new pope, Benedict XVI, takes over all of the holy Roman Catholic activities there. A new addition to the fallen political heroes sticking out like a sore thumb would be the controversial candidate for President who would later become a long time U.S. Congressman, Senator Edward "Ted" Kennedy. A special tribute also go out to the activist/city councilwoman known nationwide for serving Thanksgiving dinners to over 20,000 residents of Baltimore at City Hall, Cardinal Gibbons-War Memorial Plaza, and the Sandtown-Winchester district, Beatrice "Bea" Gaddy, who passed away at age 71. AND ONCE AGAIN, DAMMN ! OF ALL THE SPORTS HEROES WHO ENDED UP PASSING AWAY OVER SOME MISINTERPRETED AND MISREPRESENTED CIRCUMSTANCES, WHAT LED TO THE MURDER OF FORMER BOXING CHAMP VERNON FORREST, JR. IN ATLANTA, AND WHY IS IT THAT ANOTHER FOOTBALL STAR, FORMER RAVENS AND TITANS QUARTERBACK STEVE "AIR" McNAIR, HAD TO BE THE LATEST ONE TO HAVE A SIX FOOT GRAVE WITHIN A CEMETERY BOUGHT AND DUG OUT FOR HIM . . OVER A 20-YR OLD FEMALE HE DATED - THE ONE WHO HAD SHOT HIM FOUR TIMES AND THEN COMMITTED SUICIDE - WHILE HE HAD UNDERGONE A DIVORCE FROM HIS WIFE AT AGE 36 ?

A final R.I.P. tribute shall go out to 3 of my grandparents: George Perry Sims (1998), wife Mamie Ineese Sims (2002), and paternal grandfather Columbus Wilson Jackson (2006).

THIS TRIBUTE TO THE FALLEN: Why is that so many of us are passing away in these situations ? I guess they mark the sign that the end of the Earth is near, whether it's through disease, an impending world famine, cosmic cataclysms, the coming of the 13th Crusade (TO HELL WITH CONSIDERING IT AS WORLD WAR III), and all the other misfortunes coming our way. The best we all can do is to simply prepare for it, and when it comes at you directly, just survive and succeed, and walk the Earth 'till Judgment Day !

 Over the years, I have traveled across one-half of this entire country engaging in scenic freelanced photography within America's largest cultural festivals. During that time I chose to specify the type of lady eager enough to be my personal vampire. There are conditions I have to set, though: that she must be between the ages of 22 and 39, must NOT be have a crowd full of kids, must not look like a Martian, or an alien from another planet, or have a sense of character or hair that's faker than a 6-dollar bill, and most of all, she must NOT look like a world-class lesbo or "tootsie". A cute, exotic young lady with the type of charm that's capable of winning over the worst of the infidels, shysters, cult leaders, insurgents, and world's dictators. Now THAT's what you call a true dimepiece !

THE SOOTHSAYER TAKES A FEW STEPS FORWARD TO SPEAK HIS LANGUAGE

---

  Now as I set off to splash some water on some downed power lines and spray the haters with a can of ELIMINATORADE, let me describe the matters which made me the way I am:  I had lived over the last fifteen years dealing with some of the fakest individuals who ever existed during my lifetime. I consider those individuals to be "chameleons". DEFINITION: Those who act as though they're surely your friends, then when they run into another individual who knew them longer than I did, they become turncoats and backstabbers - just like the real life lizards which roam the jungles and rain forests of South America and Africa. If you apparently fit the description of what I just detailed, then IT'S BEST FOR YOU TO DISTANCE YOURSELF . . . STAY AT LEAST A MILE AWAY FROM MY PRESENCE ! It could be in many ways possible in which my true enemies can be dealt with, short of the use of a sawed-off Mossberg or a 40-caliber Sig-Sauer with shark-toothed edges. Whether it's via a butterfly knife(if a NARC confiscates it upon search, I'll have a new one by the weekend), a pool ball in a Crown Royal pouch, or with my 2-years of mixed martial arts experience, it doesn't matter ! As long as there's nothing out there capable of putting my life, health, and well-being in jeopardy !

If you have a "Queer Eye For The Straight Guy, get ready to run after looking into "The Feared Eye Of An Irate Guy !"

If you happen to be a "bi", then how else am I to react, other than to say "Bye" ?

When the Lord thy and my God created all of the terrain making up this planet called Earth, He had plans in store for Adam and Eve, NOT MADAM and GENEVIEVE !

Put simply, the distance between me and the land of homosexuality is like the distance between here on Planet Earth and far away on Neptune . . . see if you haters and perpetrators can build a rocket-powered hang glider - and FLY ME THERE !

 

I'm too hyped off the ladies who are big in their right places to be encountering "sugarbakers and tootsies" looking like they've ironed their faces -the perfect examples of the type of individuals we like to refer to as "GASBIANS" - gays and lesbians merged into one !! PLEASE GET OUTTA MY FACE IF YOU FIT THAT DESCRIPTION !!

 

For all of those cruddy backstabbers, 21st century Queen Jezebels(read chs. 20-22 of the first book of Kings in the Holy Bible), Sarah Palins, Rush Limbaughs, Bill O'Reillys, Stop Snitchin' thug wannabes, Neo-Nazi skinheads, Pat Buchanans, Peter Kings, those straight-up street-level haters and fakers, and all of those generally 'more-cornballish-than-Cornwallis' gangstas who carry a number of matters based on this particular notion:

America is a nation that is virtually falling off ! In fact this whole planet is basically falling apart. We have a population of 6.77 billion people on this Earth, nearly 4 billion more people than what it can actually hold . . . so how else are we to react ? Except to say that we don't care no more, and we are ready to die. HEY ! We all are going to die anyway, so why don't we just grant ourselves the RIGHT to act like fools and thugs . . . and screw it up for ourselves and for everyone else who lives and breathes on this planet ??!!" . . .

 . . . I have a special message for individuals like you: If heads only knew what you nobodies had in mind, then you all would simply take a swan dive into a volcanic lava pit - or into a pit full of vipers and other highly-poisonous snakes - or into a bed of nails and spikes - or into a mixture of sulfuric acid/Clorox bleach. I have no time . . . and very little sympathy and respect . . . for troublesome miscreants like you !

 

God bless America !

GOD BLASTS AmeriKKKa !  

 

TOTAL NUMBER OF PLANETEERS, OTHER ONLINERS, AND REAL-LIFE OUTSIDERS WHOM I HAD DISASSOCIATED WITH SO FAR: 399 !

You know, I sit back and wonder if this could come back to haunt me, or if something like this could all be set on the Guinness Book Of World Records !

But I take it that after all of what I put on the screen - and all that you read - I can at best be described as having that "stone-faced" state of mind. But after a healthy and lengthy conversation, and getting to know me up close and personal, none of you will worry about me having a "war-face" . . .  Nuff said !

Formerly on BlackPlanet under: SirJeantavon (1998-2003 on here and on Migente.com), TheOneOnTheMove (2000-2003 on Migente.com), NMAmbassador (2004)

 

REAL LIFE NICKNAMES: Cool Bundles(since birth), Li'l Tyson (since high school in 1989), The One On The Move (since 1993), DMC and Kool G Rap (late spring and summertime from 1989-1991). Any more you guys have in mind ?

Let me describe all of the situations leading to the cutoffs - even as some have repented and later got to rejoin my buddy club:

 

A. Some of you fellow Planeteers may had their accounts closed due to extreme nudity, raunchiness, spamming, and all else considered illegitimate by Websense/Community Connect, Inc.

 B. There are some of these Planeteers who are just outright PHONY and CHAMELEONISTIC, as though they wish to be buddies via invites, then showing their true colors upon a chance meeting. If that's how you Planeteers truly feel, then what are you logging onto this site for ?

 

MUTHAF(_)CK ALL OF YOU MISGUIDED, CHAMELEONISTIC, RAUNCHY, LOUSY, UNRULY, MISGUIDED, GREEDY, AND UNSCRUPULOUS SKANKS !

 

Many of you are on here adding friends, music boxes, pictures and chances to become invitees, only for the purpose of adding Member Points directly onto your pages and also for the intent on increasing YOUR own popularity!

 PERSONAL STATISTICS

---

Height: Six-foot even, or metrically, 6'0". 

Weight: 197-204, ranging from a little bulk to LOTS OF BUFF ! I must admit that I'm not the one with that John Basedow type of physique, but credit my attributes to former champion wrestler Hulk Hogan's sermon about "the training, the prayers, and the vitamins" for ensuring that I'll never resemble a beached whale, but will be far from the Human Pipe-Cleaner - just a physical in-betweener. I'm an individual who ladies look at and ask "Are you a stripper ?" But soon many will witness how one who dares to push my buttons would end up facing a wrath similar to Huey Freeman from the Boondocks - or Wolverine from the X-Men - or The Incredible Hulk. I am far from being Courage the Cowardly Dog or Moral Orel or one of the Oblongs.

However, there was a time when I had been through a major misfortune, stemming from a near-fatal car accident that came close to taking me 6 feet under. But that was before I was able to find and clutch onto some ropes and broken tree branches, which I then used to pull myself out of the Quicksands of Hades ! I had to undergo four years of rehabilitation in hospitals located in Baltimore and in one case, a hospital in the DC Metro area. Some of my closest friends - and some people whom I barely had known - either went crazy, had seizures and faintings, or in two cases, committed suicide ! Despite all of that, I ought to say this in public, if you will: the Lord thy and my God just refused to let me die ! Bear witness to this, as I had recently been granted two certificates for my duties at the sanctuary of sermons, the water baptism, biblical studies, and swearing in at my new church, Set The Captives Free. He shall continue to let me flourish until that time has come. Consider me satisfied . . . AND SANCTIFIED !
