5 Men Who Rock in 2007

Posted Under: celebs, men

Hill Harper (born Francis Harper on May 17, 1966) isn’t exactly one of my favorite actors. I took notice of him when he released his book. This is a very flattering photo of him and until I saw it I never felt him in a handsome or good looking light. I attribute that to the quirky movie roles he’s chosen, not because he isn’t popping with muscles. Muscles do absolutely nothing for me. Although you can’t tell by looking, but he looks romantic or maybe I just love that shirt he’s wearing. They say the shy and silent types are heartbreakers.

Jamie Foxx (born Eric Morlon Bishop on December 13, 1967) is definitely on the list. I thought he was a bit overexposed the last two years so I didn’t add him to the “rock” list, but you can’t fault him for that. I mean they say he’s mysterious and dedicated and his music and acting prove that. I love how he is taking on more challenging roles, but I also think a dark chocolate man is just so beyond sexy that it’s insane.

Brian J. White (April 21, 1973) was first spotted in The Shield. He played the guy that Lem put in the hospital after he was hit in the head with an iron by Lem’s golddigging wife. I missed him when he left and thought he was one of those pretty boys that get manicures and pedicures along with a monthly facial. For me it’s always the lips. I just can’t get away from that. And he played professional football for the New England Patriots (NFL) and professional lacrosse for the Boston Blazers (NLL) before becoming an actor–and what a great job he does shining up the tv.

Adrian Grenier (July 10, 1976) is a Brooklyn man and I love him in Entourage. It’s the hair. Definitely the hair with this specimen. He has that messy hair that just gives the lady impulses. His 5 o’ clock shadow aint bad either. He has that dirty boy look. Not dirty boy as in dirty nasty sex, but just unkempt. As long as he’s not grungy it’s all good. Got to love Entourage, right?

Mark Wahlberg (June 5, 1971) has always been one of my favorites (actors not musicians). Maybe it’s his bad boy persona, or his screen presence, either way he’s nice to look at and will make some girl very very very lucky. He was an evil something in Fear, but then again, I wasn’t dating him, so, it was doable. He’s come a long way from Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch though.

Marry Me? How To Pop The Question

Posted Under: love, men, random, relationships

You’re looking for the most romantic proposal. But is he or she the one for you? If you aren’t sure check out The Plural Thing: Spiritually Preparing for Your Soul Mate.

If you’re certain he or she is the one check out these interesting ways to propose:

Give him/her a heart shaped box of chocolates, with one chocolate missing and an engagement ring in it’s place. When she opens the box, get down on one knee and pop the question.

He wanted to do something that no one else had done. The night before he “popped the question” he took the ring and froze it into an ice cube, knowing that after work they would have a drink with each other. Once she got home he asked her if she wanted something to drink. She said yes and sat down on the couch. He brought the glass over to her as she was enjoying her drink the ice cube with the ring was melting. The girlfriend had the glass to her lips and just stared into the glass. She looked at him and then back at the glass and realized what was inside. He got on one knee and asked her to marry him.

Buy several bags of candy conversation hearts and take out all of the hearts that say “marry me”. Put them together in a special heart shaped candy dish and give it to her. As she starts reading the conversation hearts, get down on one knee with the ring.

If there is a place that is special to you both, such as a lake, park, ball field, amusement park, beach, etc., you might want to consider popping the question there. What about the place you went to on your first date, or the place that was host to the first time you expressed your love for each other? Proposing in a such a location adds even more significance to it.

Finding the exact route that my girlfriend takes every time she goes to a certain place. Put a sign saying her name, then a few miles down the road another sign telling her how wonderful she is. Then another sign down the way telling her of a grand surprise waiting for her around the next corner. And last a huge billboard reading, “Will you marry me?” with me kneeling at the side of the road offering the engagement ring to her!

FBI Investigating How Man (Reginald Potts) Escaped

Posted Under: men

A Chicago man who escaped while in custody at the Dirksen Federal Building is an alleged gang member wanted for threatening to hurt a Highland Park police officer and for other crimes, authorities said Friday.

The slender Reginald Michael Potts, 24, of the 8300 block of South Essex, apparently slipped out of his handcuffs while in a 10th floor processing area Friday night, walked down a staircase, past a guard in the lobby and out an exit for disabled people.

A security review will be done to determine how Potts escaped after he was left alone in a holding area for a few minutes by at least two agents, authorities said.

Potts walked past a guard in the lobby, but it’s not unusual to see people routinely enter and exit the federal building throughout the day and night.

More puzzling is how Potts got out the door for disabled people. It’s the door everyone typically uses at night because the rest of the building entrances are locked.

But to open it, even to leave the building, people normally need a security keycard.

Potts had several warrants out for his arrest when he was picked up by the FBI Violent Crimes Task Force, authorities said.

In the Highland Park case, Potts was charged with aggravated intimidation after he phoned an investigator there several times earlier this month and threatened to hurt him, police spokesman Sgt. Steve Mueller said Sunday.

Potts was being investigated in connection with car thefts in Highland Park, and he apparently learned the investigator’s name after police spoke to associates of Potts.

Authorities could not provide details on other crimes Potts is wanted for, including several out of Chicago.

The FBI is offering a reward of up to $3,000 for information leading to Potts’ arrest.

Juanita Bynum Needs The Plural Thing

Posted Under: love, men, relationships, women

When husbands attack, wives need the Word of God and a relationship book rooted in the Word. Juanita Bynum needs The Plural Thing: Spiritually Preparing for Your Soul Mate. I’m not saying that she’s not anointed and that God doesn’t use her because He has and He does. Sometimes however, we get new or fresh revelation from others who God has appointed and are able to see the picture clearly when God uses someone else because we aren’t letting the focus be about us “being used” by God.

When Juanita reported to the police that her loving husband Thomas Weeks III, “choked her, pushed her down, kicked her and stomped her in the Renaissance parking lot,” you would never think that someone God has sent you would do something like that. I don’t know all of the details, but it was 4 a.m. and of course it was expected that no one would be around. What would have happened to her if the bellman wasn’t available or didn’t hear her cries and pleas? Was he provoked? I wasn’t there and care not to speculate.

I’m not being facetious. The Plural Thing has assisted so many single men and women make the transition from single to married “to the right partner” that you’ll read it and wonder why you’ve scarcely heard about it. People don’t want to talk about bad relationships, domestic violence, having an affair or breaking off an affair. Bookstores don’t make money on “how to stay together” books and “be happy” books, that’s why the self-help section is so huge. They keep people broken so that they’ll be coming back over and over again to try and fix what is broken. I liken it to going to a crooked mechanic who looks under your hood, unlatches something, tells you that your car is fine knowing that because of what he’s done, or the information that he’s withheld that you’ll have to come back to him and pay him more money. We’ve got to do better.

The devil doesn’t mind us having big lavish weddings that we still have to pay for three and four years after the fact, but if he can keep the friction there, and the single mindset there–then we’ll never really meld, join or come together with our spouse. We’ll never feel like we can be who we want to be or need to be with or for them because they are threatened by our fame or a host of other issues that the first few years of marriage doesn’t fully uncover until something explosive like the Juanita Bynum incident happens.

I’m familiar with 1 Timothy 3:1

“This is a faithful saying: If a man desires the position of a bishop, he desires a good work. 2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, temperate, sober-minded, of good behavior, hospitable, able to teach; 3 not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for money, F3 but gentle, not quarrelsome, not covetous; 4 one who rules his own house well, having his children in submission with all reverence 5 (for if a man does not know how to rule his own house, how will he take care of the church of God?); 6 not a novice, lest being puffed up with pride he fall into the same condemnation as the devil. 7 Moreover he must have a good testimony among those who are outside, lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.”

How does that play into the entire scheme of things? Should they have been married according to the Word? Can we make something that wasn’t supposed to ever be work? Or when things like this happen is it because of what we have done that was out of order? I’m not guessing, I’m just asking questions here because I’ve been through my own situations too. Time will tell.

But as soon as I locate her address I’ll send her a copy of The Plural Thing and him too. This kind of Christian love has got to stop and we have to stop making excuses and picking mates that are pleasing to our EYE and find someone God has hand-picked to compliment and edify our SPIRIT.

They’re looking for her husband Thomas Weeks III as I type this. Jail is certain. It’s tragic to be that prominent and have your relationship exposed, but if this was an ongoing occurrence then it needed to be exposed. Bookmark this page and I’ll update this when I find out more information.
