National Anthem Stylings of Marvin Gaye and Whitney Houston

Villagers, we had cause to be perturbed about Independence Day back in the day.

And we should be proud that Lift Every Voice and Sing is a remarkable anthem for African Americans.

However, there really isn't any reason to substitute one anthem for the other ... especially on this special day -- July 4, 2014. Today is our nation's 238th birthday!

Truth to tell, I'm proud of my country for the growth that has occurred since I was born over half-century ago. In fact, there are times when I get the chills listening to the National Anthem. Two times that are seared into my memory occurred in 1983 (Marvin Gaye) and 1991 (Whitney Houston).

How Did Bobby Brown Find His Apartment?

I've been married twice ... and ... divorced twice. I started to think about famous break-ups. I figure that Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown is one of the most famous break-ups in recent history. For over 14 years, this pop music pair endured tumult that would have brought down the mightiest of marriages: drug use, jail time, infidelity rumors, career slumps, a reality show, a crush by Osama bin Laden, parachute pants, colonics. In the end, we may never know what finally killed the greatest love of all. We do know that Houston filed for divorce in October 2006.

Brown's career future is hazy at best. Perhaps the former New Edition member will do some work with another break-up victim, Kevin Federline ... in any case, I'm fairly certain that Bobby will need to search for an apartment because he won't be able to stay in Whitney's mansion any longer!

I encourage Bobby and others in need of a quick move to a new domicile to check out Apartment Finder.
