Morning Mail – 8.10.10

Father Kennedy: You see history's full of explained phenomena. Nobody knows why. Some people thought they suffered from what the ancients called "Blasphemare absens fides." The dangers of the faithless.
Linda Hanson: The faithless?
Father Kennedy: It's the notion that nature abhors a vacuum, even a spiritual one. People who've lost their beliefs, they're like empty vessels, more susceptible to having their lives taken over by forces bigger than themselves
Linda Hanson: Almost like a curse.
Father Kennedy: Or a miracle.
Linda Hanson: Yeah, well, I don't believe in miracles.
Father Kennedy: Every day we're alive can be a miracle, Linda
Linda Hanson: Well, it doesn't feel that way. Not that way. Father, something bad is going to happen. I need your... I need your help. I need your direction. I need faith.
Father Kennedy: Faith is just believing in something beyond yourself, something you can't feel, or smell, or touch... like hope or love.
Linda Hanson: I believe I've let all that go.
Father Kennedy: Maybe you should try and get it back again, huh?
Linda Hanson: But if it's too late...
Father Kennedy: It's never too late to realize what's important in your life, to fight for it.
Linda Hanson: I don't know what to fight for.

Have you ever wondered why your job was so stressful? I think jobs that pay a lot, don’t really pay you for your skill set, but rather for putting up with stress.

I walk into my cube and I ask, “What are you doing in here?” To which, there was no solid reply or reason.

I’m going to attempt to not listen to Teflon Don every day.

Should I want to live in a big house or a nice apartment? I mean, you can have a nice house in the suburbs or a great apartment in the middle of the city. Location or space, that is the question.

I told you that daughter was from the first marriage! That’s why Laurence won’t pick up the phone. And doesn’t do anything to dispel the myth that all porn stars have effed relationships with their father. Situation is all types of messed up, left the dark skin woman for the light skin woman. Even the ex-wife supports her daughter in doing the video.

Funny thing is, I know this chick who used to sleep with Brian Pumper.

I have a queue of articles that I need to write this week. I’m still not sure what I’m going to do at SBM this week, but I’ll know soon.

Life teaches you tact. It teaches you that no matter how much freedom of speech this old world gives you, there are just some things you shouldn’t say aloud. You got to keep some stuff to yourself.

Oh yeah, I heard the new Trey Songz and Usher song. I don’t know how I feel about R&B duets with two dudes. It just feels odd. None more odd than, Same Girl with Usher and R. Kelly. Go back and listen to the way that song opens up, I bet you will start questioning what in the hell…

It seems that as far as we get ahead the further we go back. How did we go from thinking Stronger was the hottest song in the club to BMF? Not that there’s anything wrong with BMF, because it pumps, but you feel me?
Would you rather send your mom on vacation or go with her?

And which car is more sexy, an Escalade or a Maserati?

Life is good, God is good.

I will not go so long without Morning Mail again, I apologize.
