HUMANITY
The sanity of humanity is no fantasy. Insanity itself can lead to fatality resulting in death which is reality. A twisted society can be a calamity. What in the world happened to harmony and tranquility?
Life is not always fair. Sometimes it’s do or dare. We scramble lottery numbers to gamble and hope to strike it rich. Play the stocks and they can hit the rocks. Murderers can kill just for the thrill. Some guys date to rape. Lovers take a chance on romance while others pay an enormous cost for divorce. People file for bankruptcy hoping to set themselves free from debt.
Suicide by surprise causes an uprise. Terrorists continue to harm and bomb. Suffering can be severe. Stay clear of fear. Who do you want to blame? There’s no shame in fame. It never pays to be lame. People have a choice or is the government’s voice?
Had too much to drink so you sink. Want a treat? Then go out to eat. Looking for that special soul mate? It’s not too late. Something is better than nothing. Does it really pay to hate? We won’t last at this rate. All people want to do is fight. They think it’s their almighty right. Seek lasting peace. Will the fighting ever cease? Why should we retreat? How much more can we endure?
Dreams can come true. It’s definitely up to you. Get a doctor or nurse if you’re hurt. Tired of being sick? Sure is hard to lick. Are you addicted to a habit? Give in and never win. Oh where in the world is God when we need him?

FAIRY-TALE LOVE
I don’t want my love to be a fairy tale. This is about a girl that hits the trail in search of her prince charming on a white horse. Of course it’s in a story book, but she’d rather get hooked by the real thing. Never mind dangling on a string. This kind of love fails and quickly turns stale. She’s got to find someone to make her happy not feel crappy. You have to be lucky to find the right one, not some son of a gun. All you would want to do is run instead of having fun.
Fairy tales are make believe. It’s not the real thing. Story books have a prince charming, but I need to find my true darling. Maybe I could be convinced that somewhere out there is my real prince.

SICK “QUARTERBACK” VICK
Michael Vick had a great quarterback career. Unfortunately, he steered the wrong way and got caught in an illegal and brutal arena of pit bull dogfighting. The writing was on the wall that it would be Vick’s downfall.
It was in summer of 2007 that the Atlanta Falcons suspended Michael Vick after he admittedly stashed the cash from a dogfighting ring held in the backyard of his Virginia property where blood stains were found around the grounds.
The first thing that comes to mind is anyone who abuses or kills an animal must be mentally ill. So what kind of a guy is Michael? He’s a powerful towering individual who has plenty of money and fame. Then why did he get involved in this dogfighting game? I believe Vick thought he could get away with it. He certainly wasn’t making a lot of money from dogfighting. In the end, Vick’s dishonesty cost him everything.
Michael Vick was sentenced to 23 months, spending approximately 19 months in federal prison with a probation obligation to speak or teach “at-risk” kids around the country on animal cruelty and brutality. Is this enough of a penalty for a dog’s suffering? What about the plight of other dogs that were killed because they failed to fight? Dogs have a right to live their life. They’re man’s best friend to the end.
Dogs barked, growled and snarled. If animals could only talk or squawk they would tell their tales of sheer hell.
Of course Michael Vick could be reinstated into the NFL after serving prison time if he showed remorse.
On August 13, 2009 the Philadelphia Eagles spread their wings. Michael Vick was picked as a home team player with a one-year contract because of his great quarterback tricks, but can he lick the shame over the dogs that were killed and maimed? It’s just insane to think that “Sick Vick” has “learned a lesson” even after his confession.
Well, people make mistakes and should be forgiven. Vick served his time in a federal prison. I’m not going into racism or that Vick did not know any better because of his upbringing. These poor doggies were treated inhumanely. Let’s not compare the killing of pigs and other poultry to house pets.
This all boils down to if the youth of this country is served by the words of Michael Vick, then we should not continue to keep beating up this tragedy with a wooden stick.
I am not here to bitch about Vick, only stating some of the facts on his cruel inhumane treatment of animals who were abused and killed. The disgrace and shame may overpower Vick’s fame. This is what Michael Vick will have to live with.
And they say, “Crime Does Not Pay.” I totally disagree. See Michael Vick’s upcoming BET reality show, “The Michael Vick Project.” Hey, this guy is gonna roll in dough. Whataya know the show did not do that well. It opened on February 2nd with over a million viewers and then fell to over 700,000 for the season finale. Vick said he turned down a second season on BET as it wasn’t that fascinating.
There’s a new twist to Michael Vick’s animal cruelty. Vick’s teammates applaud him for talking to kids about his mistakes with a special “Ed Block Courage Award” which PETA and protesters deplore. It’s definitely not appropriate to award Vick such an achievement.
Nude pics of Michael Vick? Playgirl wants Vick to strip. The magazine will be profiting from Vick’s nudity while PETA gets a million dollar donation toward animal cruelty. We’ll have to wait and see if Vick strips.
On June 25, 2010 Virginia Beach police investigate a shooting one block from a nightclub where Michael Vick celebrated his “30th” birthday party. Prosecutors want to file charges, but victim is not cooperating. Vick who is still on probation has to stick to the rules after serving federal prison time for animal cruelty.
The Philadelphia Eagles who have commented on the shooting incident say it is definitely not true that they might be releasing Vick from his contract, but are waiting for a conclusion of the investigation. Now it seems that Vick was involved in some type of confrontation, but left before the shooting at his birthday party. Vick’s co-defendant was shot at the party and convicted of dog fighting. NFL Commissioner Roger Goddell who plans to meet with the quarterback voiced his opinion that Vick should be more careful in making the right choices.

CHRIS BROWN
The girls don’t want you around. On August 25, 2009, the R&B singer Chris Brown was found guilty to one count of felony battery with the intentional act of great bodily injury on February 8th to his former girlfriend, singer Rihanna (real name, Robin Fenty). The judge should have put Brown’s ass in the slammer. Damn to any man who lifts his hands to a woman.
The court ordered Chris Brown to stay 100 yards away from the Barbadian singer and he must be 10 yards from her when they attend upcoming entertainment events. For a period of five years there will be no girlfriend/boyfriend relationship. Rihanna wants the restraining order lifted, but so far Chris is restricted.
Looks like some women can’t get enough of the rough stuff. Rihanna certainly needs counseling. Chris, an abusive fella, will definitely miss the bliss under his girlfriend’s “Umbrella.”
Because Chris Brown is a celebrity he got away with just five years of supervised probation instead of being locked up in in the pokey. He must enroll in a one-year domestic violence class and do a six-month stretch of heavy duty labor-oriented community service. Did Chris get what he deserved? It’s more like a “slap on the wrist.”
Brown paid $2,500 in restitution, $2,500 probation costs and other court penalties upon sentencing.
Chris flew down to his hometown in Virginia to serve six months of community service and attend a domestic violence class. Will this help him to erase his abusive past? Only time will tell if Chris does well.
So why do some men abuse women? Think they can get away with it. Hit you until you’re bloody black and blue. Man wants to rule and screw. A woman is nobody’s fool. Hey, she’s human too!
A probation report issued to the court describes how Chris Brown previously roughed up or possibly shoved Rihanna into a wall while traveling in a foreign country. These overseas attacks were never reported and of course Chris does not remember two other occasions when he lost his temper.
Chris Brown, the mean and nasty brute pled not guilty to clinching his fists into Rihanna’s face choking, punching and threatening repeatedly, then biting her ear because he was pissed. How could this “love affair” turn into a “nightmare?” Chris Brown’s songs were taken off the air and he lost his endorsements.
On the “Larry King Show” Chris Brown surprised us all by wearing a powder blue pullover sweater with a cute matching bow tie. Obviously Chris was trying to portray himself as a “nice sweet guy.” Well, he is far from a “gentle man” after lifting his hands to woman.
Larry King posed some questions on the evening of the incident, but Chris failed to go into detail in relation to any conversations he had with Rihanna out of respect and due to her privacy. Chris was very “wishy washy,” but did state that he was definitely ashamed.
Everyone knows Rihanna could have been maimed. Shame, shame on a guy with “no brains.” Chris claims he still loves Rihanna and has made some terrible mistakes which in time he hopes will make him a better person. Hopefully he has learned his lesson.
Chris Brown’s lawyer, the famous Mark Geragos who attended the Larry King interview put on a good show. This is the attorney who handled the Michael Jackson and Scott Peterson cases and got a wad of dough.
Brown’s mother, Joyce Hawkins was also by her son’s side with tears in her eyes telling Larry King she had an abusive husband and at that time Chris was too young and did not understand. Well, Chris is now a grown man and should know right from wrong, instead the guy is headstrong!
Chris Brown gets a big blow from the Oprah Show. He doesn’t know why Oprah will not let him slouch on her couch. Ouch! Oprah is not the “Queen of Mean” she just takes domestic assault seriously.
Oprah is very appreciative that Chris went to Africa and performed at her school, but he needs to stick to the court rules. She hopes Chris Brown straightens himself out by getting counseling which he desperately needs. Hopefully Chris will start doing some “good deeds.”
Celebrities seem to get away with everything. Somehow we are going to see Chris Brown’s probation reduced even though he’s a nasty brute. Chris would like to go out of the country for “The Tribute” honoring the great Michael Jackson. Rihanna and Chris want to go on a vacation to Mexico. When it comes to law and order, let’s see if the judge will budge.
Rihanna, the “umbrella singer” from Barbados breaks her silence on “20/20″ interview with anchor woman, Diane Sawyer on how she was battered and bruised. It was like I never really knew Chris as he hit and bit me. Dangerously in love, I was ashamed and humiliated by the entire incident. Rihanna went on to say when she caught Chris Brown in a lie on a text message from an old girlfriend, he lost it and became violent and abusive. Chris had a blank look on his face with an attitude of nothing to lose as he hit and bruised me. She wants Chris Brown to get his life together and grow up. It’s been tough for Rihanna who still loves and cares about Chris Brown. They can’t be around each other, but Rihanna will always consider Chris a best friend and hopes in time she’ll mend.
Chris Brown sits down with Robin Williams for a scheduled 20/20 special ABC “one-on-one” interview. He’s definitely truly sorry for this terrible tragedy which has been devastating. Rihanna and me were very happy. There were never problems of anger or rage with any girlfriends in the past. He’s now in an “anger management” class.
Chris posted a “Twitter” fit over certain major stores like Walmart who are not stocking his new “Graffitti” CD. Then he quits “Twit.” This guy is really pissed. He used profanity against the music industry. Looks like Chris is “up the creek” for his album only sold 100,000 copies in the first week.
On February 18, 2010 there was a court hearing. Chris Brown finally turned his life around. Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Patricia Schnegg praised Brown for doing 32 days of community labor and not missing one session of domestic-violence counseling in his hometown.
The judge previously cleared him for traveling to concerts out of the United States. Brown thanked the judge from the bottom of his heart for her nice remarks. Chris can now look forward to a fresh start.
UK has denied entry into their country for a concert tour due to the fact that Chris Brown was found guilty of felony battery. Our primary concern is public safety.
Chris has a new hit song “No Bullshit” but are his fans buying it? He’s trying for a comeback ever since the Rihanna attack.
There’s a new movie coming to your town co-starring Chris Brown. From an R&B singer to an action star he does some great stunts running and jumping as one of the robbers in “Takers” coming to theaters August, 2010 when Chris will be performing on the big screen.
Chris and his attorney, Mark Geragos attend a fourth scheduled probation hearing. LA Judge Patricia Schnegg after reviewing Chris’ probationary performance praises him on the great job he’s doing.
