    I think he is referring to Inside Hoops, but just a guess.

    RIP Maya

    The world lost great laureate today! Her poems touched and inspired millions of people, anything else said about her is gossip as far as I'm concerned!

    RIP, Mrs. Angelou.

    I could listen to this woman talk for days. lol. She was that good. She could read the ingredients on a box of cereal and it'd be worth listening to. I felt the same way about the late Barbara Jordan. Sad day.

    This was her last tweet from a few days ago :

    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>Listen to yourself and in that quietude you might hear the voice of God.</p>&mdash; Maya Angelou (@DrMayaAngelou) <a href="https://twitter.com/DrMayaAngelou/statuses/469911477500272642">May 23, 2014</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

    I think it worked... I must say... I was rather underwhelmed by god's speaking voice... I had anticipated something quite a bit more ominous and commanding of such reverence...

    He revealed his name to be more numerical than stated in the bible... and apparently all those divine visions and communications by god, talked about throughout the book that were thought of as miracles, were actually brought about through more practical, technological means...

    He DOES actually in fact have a keen interest in earthly matters... though, not the one's we thought he would/should have interest in... which would explain a lot...
