HOUSTON- YOU HAVE A PROBLEM

May 28, 2004

The phrase has been used in many ways, but it’s usually with a “WE” in it, not a “YOU”. I am not talking NASA and Houston, Texas though. It’s obvious that “THEY” have a problem. I am talking “WHITNEY”. She used to be one of my favorite singers, actors, people.

Many people will tend to blame “others” for their problems and the press has been quick to look at her hubby, Bobby, and say that he’s the problem. He might be part of it; however, Whitney can’t cop out on her share of the blame.

The latest craziness involves her embracing a group that are known as “Black Hebrews” (a name they don’t like to be called). Whitney showed up in Dimona, Israel yesterday with Bobby to find peace and karma. There’s an African-American community in Dimona that has been developing for about 33 years now.

I looked into some of their beliefs and it baffles me how someone like Whitney can go from one mistake to another. This group certainly would not win me over with their ban on eating meat, dairy products, and sugar. Those would be minor though compared to my objection of having their leadership pick my spouse. Well, since I’m already married, I guess I couldn’t be hurt by that doctrine.

There is this little issue though that I am sure my wife wouldn’t agree to. You see, they believe in polygamy and therein, Houston, “I” have a problem!
