R.I.P.

If he wasn’t already the center of attention, James Brown stole the spotlight away of Jesus by passing away on the eve of his birthday.

I wonder if he walked through the pearly gates or jived? "Get up, get on up!" You think since it was Christmas God would allow the sex machine through the gates even if he looked like this?

What the hell? Do you think you could have posted a more unflattering picture of James? The guy is one of the most influential musicians on music today, and you post a picture of him that makes him look like Fred Flinstone.

Yabba-dabba-do!

We were so saddened by the death of this great showman. My husband
actually met him while waiting for a flight at a Paris airport, and when
James knew my husband was an avid fan and admirer, James sat down for over
an hour and spent some quality time with my husband. He could have just
brushed off another fan, but didn't. What a great entertainer; I'm sure he
was greeted at the Pearly Gates by a chorus of "soul".

If heaven is a place where wife beaters are allowed, I'll settle for my reservation in hell. I'm glad you chose that picture. That plus prison garb is the real James Brown. Not the made up phony who could sing and dance with the best of them.
