Every now again I get to surf the internet like regular people. Usually I’m just looking for inspiration to come up with a new project. Sometimes I stumble upon a pretty cool website that has nothing to do with anything. Its sole purpose is to have fun. Not trying to sell you anything, or involve you in what they’re doing (ala NEIM BLOG)… they exist solely to entertain you…

I thought that’s what this site was… but they fooled me. Nonetheless it is a pretty cool site to deliver their artistic style of music. Enjoy… (Click Image)

I imagine when you marry it will be somewhere that supports polygamy, no?

Marc Howelton at 10:09am February 26

Yeah, I’ll actually call you to find out where you got your license. Deal!

Rhonda Johnson at 10:19am February 26

I would say that was a low blow but I did start it huh.

What am I saying? I will be the picture of monogamy.

Tanisha Boyd at 10:23am February 26

what in the name of the Je Simpin Hova kinda fukkery is this? Isn’t it too early to be sucka mc’ing like this?

Marc, you getting soft in your old age…

Marc Howelton at 10:28am February 26

*cancels flight to Aruba* Who’s taking the drunken photos of this ninja from this upcoming weekend? Let me load up my pre-paid black card.

Tanisha Boyd at 10:34am February 26

*quickly moves away from window*

Rhonda Johnson at 10:41am February 26

Which reminds me Tanisha. I am working on my public image and i’m not sure if being with some of you guys would be a good idea.

Shaana Sweazie at 10:45am February 26

Tanisha, to say Marc is getting soft would imply he was hard at some point in time. Not the case!

*runs*

Angela N. Evans at 10:53am February 26

I was backing you, big dummy!

Tanisha Boyd at 10:57am February 26

@ Rhonda…okay, Marc won’t be allowed to come…you should be good…

@ Shaana…maybe I should have said SOFTER in his old age…as in, the hardness level of say, a ripe banana, to the softness of this message which is like month old bananas…feel me?

Marc Howelton at 11:01am February 26

AJ Cyr at 11:07am February 26

Amen! You’re definitely getting wiser in your old(er) age!

Neiman Catley at 11:10am February 26

So you’re thinking about getting married, huh? To hell with the whole institution. If two people are together… then two people are together. Why do people need a piece of paper to prove that they will be faithful to one another? I don’t want to hear that corny shyt of pledging your vows before God either. If “God” is supposed to be this omniscient being, he/she/it should know what’s in your heart. I think if people want to become husband and wife, they should make the vows between each other without all of the fanfare.

Hell… all sorts of beasts have monogamous relationships. Take the North American wolf for example. One partner for life. No wedding, yet the wolves are committed to one another for life.

People get married for all sorts of artificial reasons. That’s why the shyt doesn’t last. About 90% of the women I meet (mainly the good-looking ones) are looking for that “meal ticket”, not love. Most guys are looking for a Trophy or a girl to be their servant, not love.
…

Rhonda Johnson at 11:11am February 26

Why am I bring ignored? They just called you a mark.

Neiman Catley at 11:13am February 26

…(continued)
Once people begin to see what’s real in life and one another, than there can be these blissful relationships that some of us used to dream about as kids. I once heard a girl tell me… “You can learn to love a man.” WTF? Because he has $$?!

It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.

Marc Howelton at 11:15am February 26

*watches as page takes a serious turn* *smacks on banana like Big Headed Rico*

Marc Howelton at 11:17am February 26

@ Alicia I’ve always been wise, whatchu trying to say?

Tanisha Boyd at 11:31am February 26

<—is NOT looking for a meal ticket…I can feed myself just fine…

God may know your heart…but meanwhile keep screwing each other’s brain’s out until the Viagra supply is fully depleted and the chick has dried up like the Sahara…I’m sure God understands that…

a piece of paper does not prove that two people will be faithful to one another…that piece of paper does however prove that two people have come together as one, specifially speaking as a legal entity…the monogamy only comes into play when 2 people actually want to be committed to one another…no piece of paper can make them do that…

and FYI, a true marriage does not exist without God in it…it’s kinda His institution and until people start recognizing that they will continue to fail epically at it…

*no bible thumper*

Marc Howelton at 11:33am February 26

*smack smack smack* I don’t, I don’t like that shyt, I don’t like that shyt dawg….

Tanisha Boyd at 11:40am February 26

zaggin is you bout it, bout it fool!

Neiman Catley at 11:43am February 26

to T. Boyd

“…and FYI, a true marriage does not exist without God in it…it’s kinda His institution and until people start recognizing that they will continue to fail epically at it…”

World Population (as of 2005):
33% Christian (decreasing)
21% Islam (increasing)
16% Nonreligious ( Atheist, Agnostic, theist nonreligious)
14% Hindu
8% Other
6% Buddhism
6% Chinese Traditional
6% Primal-indigenous (incl African traditional/ Diasporic)

So I ask you… which “God?”
And what of the 16% of people who don’t particularly have one? Does it not exist or is it not valid for this group?

Shaana Sweazie at 11:55am February 26

most of the aforementioned religions are based on the same grassroot belief that there is a higher power(s) which exist for guidance in our spiritual and waking life, so the ‘which God’ is neither here nor there.

as for the percentage who don’t subscribe to a particular religion, it’s safe to assume they live a life of mostly good according to societal norms, which in most countries are based on the dominating religion.

aside from that aspect, i can agree that people tend to focus on the idea of mariagge (the ceremony) and not the actual application, however that does not mitigate the bond that ‘piece of paper’ represents. The same could be said for a college diploma.

Marc Howelton at 11:56am February 26

^^^black Catholic right here. You’re like .0002 percent of the population right? *goes back to smacking*

Tanisha Boyd at 11:58am February 26

does it matter which God? I can’t choose that for people…God, Allah, Jehovah, Big Baby Jesus, whatever you want to call your Supreme Being…makes no matter…

you are an aethist, devil worshipper, Beezlebub B-boy, etc. the concept of civil union seems much more suitable than marriage does…

Shaana Sweazie at 12:01pm February 26

*wonders who told Marcus she was giving up cursing for lent*

Don’t make me get creative, ok?

Neiman Catley at 12:03pm February 26

Shaana Sweazie makes a good argument. Screw paper, save the Earth.

T. Boyd is scaring me “affixes index fingers to represent a cross”

Tanisha Boyd at 12:05pm February 26

Tanisha “Blasphemus” Boyd strikes again! YES!

*moves farther away from window*

Neiman Catley at 12:11pm February 26

“Grabs pistol and silver bullets”

AJ Cyr at 12:11pm February 26

Yes, for the most part, you have always been a mature person, despite your age. However, there were other areas (only your words in previous conversations can be referenced) where growth was needed and it appears you have matured in those areas as well.

I can agree with Nieman to a point; people get married for the wrong reasons and I believe your commentary states that. However, as a good looking woman (*ahem* Marcus can attest) that is NOT looking for a meal ticket, but for a man that God has prepared for her and ONLY her; paper is not what defines the relationship, but the covenant made before God. The paper is man-made, yet necessary in the event of sickness or death (which are apart of your marriage vows before God).

I think many women, myself included, have also had to mature past wanting the “wedding day” and to begin preparing for marriage as a life partner and true help-mate. Enjoy your banana!

Neiman Catley at 12:14pm February 26

Marriage can work if you are truthful… seek the truth!

That’s what i’m sayin! lol

Valerie Long at 9:49pm February 26

Dear Marc… I enjoyed your mini dissertation… you have matured so from the old A&M days of burning out tires fish tailing in your lil mustang to impress the ladies…

Dear Neiman… Please don’t knock what you clearly have no knowledge of. If you don’t understand how God works then there is no need for the cynicism. Marriage was designed by God. People have ruined its sanctity by putting superficial needs before what should actually be first. I think this may be the “meal ticket” you speak of. You seem to think that “be together” is an answer/solution? When actually its part of the problem. That is so vague. Be together to what? Screw for a while? Make a baby? Go to dinner a few times? A life long marriage take a lot more than just “be together”. I guess that is why you can compare us to animals? They really don’t have to get to know each other they just “be together”.

Valerie Long at 9:50pm February 26

**not quite finished**
Dear Tanisha & AJ… Well said. I totally agree. Tanisha I too, am fearful of clicking the links. Ya’ll were on point. Well I have never really seen the “azzhole” side of Mr. Howelton … Well Marc you didn’t respond to my email about Dubai …what’s up that??? Wait a flashback just popped in my head… I think I got pretty ticked off at you when you lived down the hall from me in those old a** dorms in summer school waaaaay back when.

Speaking for myself … a wedding is an event that I can do without. I wouldn’t mind a SMALL ceremony. I don’t by into the whole bridesmaid thing. The last wedding I participated in was the last. I have friends that have this coveted day planned out from the colors the dresses to the napkins on the table. To me it’s quite hilarious when I remind them that they don’t even have a date for dinner … not to mention a boyfriend.

Marc Howelton at 10:08pm February 26

I ain’t matured not a lick! Don’t put that negative energy in the air Val. *leaves trying to figure out what Dubai, smoking tires and the summer of 98 or 99 has to do with anything* lol

Camille Patterson at 11:17pm February 26

*Sheesh, who am I kidding*

Marc, I hate choo for making me have to exercise my brain cells…

Personally, I’d love to be loved by a man as Christ loves the church. Money may be long, but life is short. Money can’t buy happiness, but faith can. Marriage may not be for all, but I hope it is for me. It only takes one other, of a like mind, to make that happen.

Screw the decisions of the many. This planet is being destroyed by all those who choose to disregard the effects their selfish ways have on it. One shouldn’t consider the actions of these same people when determining how to spend the rest of one’s life with a person they love. In other words, who the many choose to serve/not to serve is worthless information.

Needless to say, my marriage will be as personal as my relationship with God. I tend to Him as He tends to me, therefore, I’ll tend to him as he tends to me. It will be between us. “Nothing even matters, at all…”

Neiman Catley at 3:27am February 27

Awwwww shyt…. Marc… you hear your girl?

@ Valerie Long
{“Dear Neiman… Please don’t knock what you clearly have no knowledge of.”}

You don’t seriously want to get into a theological battle with NEIM? Do you? I would turn your world upside down. Don’t mistake rationalism for cynicism. I am a connoisseur of knowledge. More so… the truth. The union between man and woman is just a natural one that predates recorded history. Even before there was organized religion.

Let me school you…

As hunter-gatherers settled down into agrarian civilizations, society had a need for more stable arrangements. The first recorded evidence of marriage ceremonies uniting one woman and one man dates from about 2350 B.C., in Mesopotamia. Over the next several hundred years, marriage evolved into a widespread institution embraced by the ancient Hebrews, Greeks, and Romans. But back then, marriage had little to do with love or with religion.

(to be continued)

Neiman Catley at 3:31am February 27

(continued)

Marriage’s primary purpose was to bind women to men, and thus guarantee that a man’s children were truly his biological heirs. Through marriage, a woman became a man’s property. In the betrothal ceremony of ancient Greece, a father would hand over his daughter with these words: “I pledge my daughter for the purpose of producing legitimate offspring.” Among the ancient Hebrews, men were free to take several wives; married Greeks and Romans were free to satisfy their sexual urges with concubines, prostitutes, and even teenage male lovers, while their wives were required to stay home and tend to the household. If wives failed to produce offspring, their husbands could give them back and marry someone else.

As the Roman Catholic Church became a powerful institution in Europe, the blessings of a priest became a necessary step for a marriage to be legally recognized. By the eighth century, marriage was widely accepted in the Catholic church as a sacrament.

(more…)

Neiman Catley at 3:37am February 27

continued…

For much of human history, couples were brought together for practical reasons, not because they fell in love. In time, of course, many marriage partners came to feel deep mutual love and devotion. But the idea of romantic love, as a motivating force for marriage, only goes as far back as the Middle Ages. Naturally, many scholars believe the concept was “invented” by the French. Its model was the knight who felt intense love for someone else’s wife, as in the case of Sir Lancelot and King Arthur’s wife, Queen Guinevere. Twelfth-century advice literature told men to woo the object of their desire by praising her eyes, hair, and lips. In the 13th century, Richard de Fournival, physician to the king of France, wrote “Advice on Love,” in which he suggested that a woman cast her love flirtatious glances—“anything but a frank and open entreaty.”

It seems that your postulation that God created marriage is apocryphal.

(still more…)

Neiman Catley at 3:50am February 27

final continuance…

Too often we just accept what we are told because we are too apathetic to do the research or challenge anything that seems out of place due to its acceptance as the law of the land. Most times we are just fearful of the truth because it is frightening to think that what we thought we knew is just smoke and mirrors.

It is sad that so many of us accept Authority as the Truth instead of Truth as the Authority. Oh, and please… don’t argue the Faith/Truth thing… Faith is the antithesis of Truth. It is simply to believe what you cannot prove whereas truth = proof.

Lack of knowledge… I scoff at your false avowal that I lack thereof.

“cuts it… stuffs it… rolls it… smokes it”

Not sure how this will come out. I’m away from my PC & I’m trying out this feature where I can blog from my phone.

Let’s see. I have been extremely busy (as always) with work. taking on project after project. I’ve teamed up (unofficially) with 2 of the hottest designers in town. Be looking out for a real shake up in the Houston Design World. We plan on shuttin it down. I will put out some new work soon in an entry.

Had some ill-fate with my so-called friend that was sparked by me dismantling him in the “Athletic Challenge.” (Before the video) I think its just a clash of lifestyles. I’m too wild for the brother to be around. Most people can’t handle the unknown. He makes 1 of em. I won’t get too deep into it, but fcuk dude for the shyt he said. That’s it, I don’t have the time for that petty BS.

Look out for my new websites I’m about to put out. I’m developing a movie website & a graphic novel one. The movie website should be out within a couple of weeks. I will blast it.

Well I’m almost to my destination. I have to pick up some $$ from a client. I need an assistant! Anywho, Peace & Hair Grease.
