Whitney is BACK!!!

I've always like Whitney Houston for a long time and I always pulled for her through good and bad. I was disappointed in her choice for Bobby Brown as a hubby, but like a good friend who will stick with her friend even if she's about to make a catastrophic choice I stood by her. Painful to watch the MAD TV cracks on her and then her one appearance where doesn't look or sound like her was as hard to watch as anything.

That is until she let go of Bobby.

Now Whitney is back in an exclusive first clip of her new song featuring Akon (or acorn in my book because he HAS no talent but a machine box) but hearing her chops again is a very good sign. My hope is she will continue to recover and progress.

Let the come back begin!

More family time means less sex

The best times I remember in my life growing up in the projects of Cleveland was those family card nights, game night, and just sitting around the house just kicking back and enjoying the laughter of the night (this was before the internet and DVDs). When I became sexually active was when the issues my mom dropped on me (mental abuse) and other things kept hitting me to the point that when I discovered sex I couldn't let go.

I don't know if this is true with others, but I can tell you this is truly an eye opening study and something I'm sure parents should be talking about for a while. But I wonder how many of you out there are actually having quality time with your kids? How good is it and are you producing memories for a lifetime?

Braggin about my Browns

Okay, permit me some gush time for the Kardiac Kids, the Dawgs of the Dawg Pound, and the best team on the Lake (and I don't mean the Lions):




Torn between two lovers

As I write this (for the first time in months) I am torn because I'm about an hour away from getting the latest from the first day of training camp with my beloved Cleveland Browns.





Football season begins today and I can hardly wait! After last years incredible 10-6 run and having six players in the Pro Bowl for the first time since...ever, I am looking forward for this team to take the next big step and get into the playoffs in convincing fashion.

This leaves a problem for me.


Because for the past year or so I've been going over stats, articles, hits, misses, and the drama that is the Obama campaign. As a political junkie, this is the greatest time that I've ever faced with any candidate. I'm so psyched up over the way Sen. Obama is running his campaign and how he looks...presidential. Currently I'm watching how he handle himself on the world stage and so far (at this writing) he's coming up aces.




This brings a dilemma.

Who do I follow more closely? Should the Obama campaign take up most of my time or the desire to see a Cleveland team (my favorite Cleveland, Ohio team) take it all the way to the championship? Not to mention I still have God and sexuality to juggle here too. It's not easy being a junkie to the incredible around me.

But if you want to know where I stand in all this I can give it to you in three words: Or maybe Wycliff can for me.
