    I don't have any specific thoughts in mind, other than taking the day off work. What are you doing? Any suggestions?

    How about you throw a big bbq and rib cookoff for your family and hommies? MLK was all about family and friends. Another option would to be to take a cultural sensitivity class maybe?

    Usually I just played basketball and drank a few beers with my boys.

    Now that I am an adult and do not work for the government, I have to work.

    No, none of the holidays that people say are about this actually are, especially Labor Day.

    Interesting fact about Dr. King -- he was only 5 feet 6 inches tall.

    BUT, he walked much taller

    cool story brah..
    Interesting fact about Dr. King:
    he plagiarized his doctoral dissertation.

    Interesting fact about MLK blvd:
    that's where I used to get my drugs from

    despite his adultery and plagiarism, he did so many great things for the black cause that he would have probably gotten an honorary doctorate and the wimmens anyway.

    US gov't saying again 'do as I say not as I do' This is a disgrace to Dr. King.

    Interesting story about mlk blvd. That's where the Mickey D's was where I had an argument with my parents during Orientation about not wanting to pay for a liberal arts degree. "Just A Girl" was playing in the background and I thought, "I wish these two n------ would shut up so I could hear this song I heard on Letterman."
