yeah i know, three posts in the same day is a bit excessive but something really struck me as odd. how is it that r.kelly is the “king of r&b”? who exactly proclaimed that? himself?

isn’t brian mcknight the king of r&b? or is there some kind of official mark-up for titles and they have to be evenly distributed? like MJ is the king of pop, so andy warhol is the prince of pop- and even though warhol doesn’t even make music, mike would just sue him all the same.

but i dunno, i think this is more of a lil wayne vs. jay-z type of thing- where jay-z is the best rapper alive and lil wayne proclaims himself the best rapper alive. cuz honestly i’ve only heard one person refer to r.kelly as the king of r&b and that would be mr. r.kelly himself.

well, whatever- mcknight should be the king of r&b, especially after r.kelly’s “urban opera” frankenstein.

opened up my credit card bill today, i definitely hit a record:

3/11/2008 Balance – $0.00

i… owe… nothing? this is probably my first time, i don’t even think i had a zero balance on the first bill.

which isn’t really an occasion but i’d make it one. imposing religion, yeah i can see where that may take a toll, but merely suggesting that hey maybe we didn’t come from monkeys after all- to be rejected and ridiculed for that? “Expelled” coming to theaters soon:

if you know me, you know that i take free speech very seriously *cough apple sucks* but i also believe it is terribly ignorant and stupid to immediately dismiss an idea based on your own biases *cough we don’t need cops*
