What if Harriet Tubman and Nat Turner were buddies? And Medgar, Malcolm, and Martin had joined forces to save black America? Luckily Miles and Coltrane played together. Luther and Anita Baker just never got along. In '92, the Dream Team showed us how it's turns out when it's done right. Bobby and Whitney? We all know that's just wrong. At least there's Will and Jada. Go back to '84, can you imagine Prince and Michael Jackson on the same song? Gamble and Huff stayed together, why not didn't Snoop and Dre? Or Rufus and Chaka Khan? Would Brian McKnight have made Take 6 better? James Brown once fired Rick James from his band, imagine that. You'd have thought Stevie and Ray Charles would have been great friends. Kinda like Reaganomics and crack. Magic had Kareem. What if Jordan had Hakeem? If Carl Lewis and Flo Jo had a child, it'd win every race by a mile. Imagine if the real kings of comedy could have shared the same stage, Pryor, Murphy, Rock, and Chapelle. Would a Deathrow Record reunion today, be more heaven or hell? We still long for Pac and Big. Is there anybody you could pair Jimmy with that would have made him seem more special? Langston Hughes and Zora Neale Hurston never made up. Nas and Jay did, and that's big. Imagine Eric Dickerson or Barry Sanders with Emmit Smith's line. Or Garvey with Oprah's dough. What if the world was ready for a Black Jesus and a black pope, a match made in heaven fa sho!
T4TD: Instead of divide and conquer, let's just conquer, together. Peace.

I'm glad you've returned too.
As far as Bobby and Whitney's marriage goes . . . hey, they're still together making it work their way. It may not look beautiful like Will and Jada or seem graceful and dignified like Ruby and Ossie but its for them and at least its not their third or fourth or fifth . . ..
Staying married isn't always a good thing.
They have kids and they are drug addicts. Period.
A divorce might not be better because you would still be living with one drug addicted parent. But still, staying together ain't always the move.
Hot post though.
Damn I wanted that prince and MJ song.
Janet and MJ turned out well.
Also, I was wondering, how did you make that HTML banner and where do you post it in your template.
Hit me up
They have kids . . . well maybe therapy and counseling are viable solutions to "saving" the marriage and parent/child relationship. That's an example of conquering together.
But I suppose that's easy for me to write since I'm not addicted to drugs nor married to a drug addict.
