Mark you’re hilarious how you were talking about the movie “bringing down the house”… you mentioned the premise of the movie is that Steve Martin falls in love with Queen Latifa… actually, Queen latifa comes to Steve martin because she needs a lawyer, and he ends up learning a thing or two from her, and in the end, reconciles with his ex wife because of what he learns from Queen Latifa. The premise of the movie is that he is a hot shot, over busied lawyer who makes work a priority and starts losing his family over it. And a seemingly “trashy” Queen Latifa comes into the picture and ends up changing his life. I just had to give you a hard time for that! But yes, what you were staying still holds true… Queen Latifa is “sexy” and gorgeous, and she also models for Cover Girl. Also, she has a jazz CD out and has a beautiful voice – you might enjoy taking a listen! Love the show guys! Mark, you remind me so much of my dad, who is a pastor. He uses words like crap from the pulput, just like you. And we all love him for it. And Debbie, my mom’s name is Debbie as well, and she is always trying to “tone down” my dad’s outragiousness. It is the highlight of my day to listen to you, and I have come to hate weekends now as the doesn’t air! TGIM for me!
I think the whole “respect issue” with women is a very fine line, that can easily be crossed the wrong way. As a man, I’m actually turned off if a woman comes across as too indepedent or self-assured. I definitely respect women who aren’t slutty, but I find myself responding better to a woman who keeps in mind that God created both sexes for each other, not to keep them apart. The reckless attitude of “I don’t need no man” is something I’m actually appalled by, more often than not.
