The Montana Fishburn Story Revisited – Letter To Larwence Fishburn

1 year, 291 days ago - By Rylan Branch

I decided to go ahead and drop this post while it is fresh in my mind, before I head out for the days adventures.

Over the years as you can imagine, I have received what we can call spoken and unspoken morality stance questions in regards to female sexuality regarding prostitution and pornography and so forth, and in actuality, my stance is very simple, so I would address it to
Larwence Fishburn as an individual with some choices to make regarding perspectives about his daughters decisions.

Do I advocate that a woman participate in what is known as loose sexual behavior for profit such as pornography and prostitution, or simple loose behavior in general? The answer is negative, yet for a different reason than most, as I am actually aware of higher levels of success and profits as it has been demonstrated in showbiz that the idea of sex, actually sells more than the act itself, not to mention the fact that in the grand scheme of things, women in general, upon the appropriate occasion have been known to have sexual intercourse of make love for a more easially digestable language.

What I will state for the record is that I would choose this type of loose behavior for a woman as a heterosexual male as opposed to viewing or participating in what is seemingly socially acceptable in the mainstream American society and A List Hollywood circles as pictured below which is often applauded as a step towards greater tolerance and advancement of thought.

I would venture even further to say that what ever the sexual type and behavior is and our views regarding it are, it ( the behavior and choice) can be confirmed with common sense perception, as opposed to the guesswork put in to imagery and concepts viewable in the image below.

While I do not advocate human judgment, since it is a regularly occurring tendency in the digital age, I do advocate a more impartial and broad perspective judgment which would lead to greater justice, so in closing, I would simply ponder on which type of behavior leads to the greatest potential for procreation to continue for the bloodline of
Larwerence Fishburn, because due to a unique life experience of being exposed to females in Hollywood/ Los Angeles,  who enter into these realms for reasons other than the stereotypical belief that it was motivated by financial need,  I can confirm that exposure to other forms of sexual relations and behaviors from parents and their associates, and peers within a “high society” settings has been known to result in

Karrine 'Superhead' Steffans

certain females feeling the need to overcompensate in areas of heterosexual behaviors for the sake of gaining some affection and relating to their own sexual identity.

Again, it is just my personal stance.

A different perspective to consider.

Laurence Fishburne's Daughter As A Prostitute & Porn Star?

I don’t have much to say about this story, so let’s turn it over to E! News, the best in the biz for Reality Television..

Laurence Fishburne’s Aspiring Porn-Star Daughter Was Busted for What?!

Fri., Aug. 6, 2010 7:45 PM PDT by

It turns out Laurence Fishburne may have been bristling at his daughter’s career choices for some time now.

Court records obtained by E! News show that Montana Fishburne, who’s making her adult-film debut this month in Vivid Entertainment’s cleverly titled Montana Fishburne, was arrested last year for alleged prostitution and only avoided jail by signing up for a work-alternative program.

So maybe porn is a step in the right direction.

View the court records.

On March 19, Fishburne pleaded no contest in a Hollywood courtroom to criminal trespass, a misdemeanor, and the court agreed to drop charges of solicitation and loitering in a public area for the purpose of prostitution, according to court documents.

She was sentenced to two years’ probation and 15 days in jail, but was able to do community service instead of jail time.

As part of her probation, Fishburne was also ordered to not charge (or attempt to charge) money for sex; have sex in a public place or a place “exposed to public view”; hitchhike or otherwise engage drivers in conversation; and loiter in alleys or public streets “with the intent to solicit acts of prostitution.”

Basically, don’t go out and be a hooker.

The 19-year-old was also ordered to complete an AIDS-education class and submit to an AIDS test.

A call to Fishburne’s attorney of record, Sammy Weiss, was not immediately returned.

Friends Requests – What Are Your Rules?

1 year, 292 days ago - By Rylan Branch

Welcome Home, and thanks for tuning in to today’s Tuesday Newsday discussion.

Now that I have your attention, lets look into this most important subject matter more thoroughly as relationships between humans do play a part in the overall condition of existence and survival of the human race.

From this perspective, the online publication that you are reading this entry on is actually amongst other things, a business venture, which requires that we spend a fair amount of time researching subjects relevant to the online business industry, yet how we are set apart is through our ability to keep it human and get our data directly from the viewers as opposed to the social media experts who study the strategies that are supposed to work from an outsiders detached perspective.

What something may look and sound like in tech biz terminology is as follows.

Small business owners are continually asking us about the ROI (return on investment) of social media and online marketing of every incarnation. Fair question. But sometimes it’s not as simple as “build it and they will come”. Online marketing today takes a new way of looking at the prospective customer as an individual who is looking for solutions – not a faceless consumer wanting to buy something. So, the answer to “What is the ROI of online marketing?” is often “That depends!”. (Most bean-counters and business owners don’t like that answer, but hopefully we can clarify that a little here)

Bottomline: You must care about people, building relationships, and providing value, and not come across as blatantly selling and self-interested.

Now back to the surface where the earthlings reside, we can pretty much conclude that a majority of people that we all know have some form of an online social network profile, and the concept of friend requests and its rules is now embedded into the cultural fabric of everyday life in the digital age.

Through having been at it ( web biz) for a hot minute, it was actually Myspace.com and its users that grandfathered in this phenomenon, before the “experts” in this arena added the business element to something that is for the most part, considered personal business for a majority of site users, so lets have a look at what the roots look like, shall we?

If I had to sum it all up with a cause and effect scenario, it appears that the cause is a good old fashioned case of self importance as the cause, and the effect as competition.

In a meeting yesterday, our staff members discussed the matter of teamwork versus individualism in the online arena as well as the world at large and it appears that individualism is the current norm, with social networking sites and the devices used to connect to them as tie ins to the promotion of this type of attitude and behavior.

Basically, it is a “whats in it for me” mentality, which plays out with the image above, as the first showing of this friends request phenomenon was when a person requested another persons friendship, the requested individual would go the the profile of the requesting individual to thank them for their request, while simultaneously increasing their self importance through letting everyone on the requesting individuals profile in on the fact that they were important enough to be requested as a friend.

Sound complicated? To me it does, and since we all know that the opposite of ease is dis-ease, we can correlate as to how this can result in a
sick situation.

On to the current date and time, with the mass migration

Facebook.com and Twitter.com for online social services, the overall fundamental idea of self importance has remained intact, with the effects becoming even more complicated and stressed through competition and an over-consumption of and greater need for resources to be provided for use, in exchange for a request and demand for more resources.

I have heard and seen stories of new as well as long standing relationships being tainted and destroyed due to the concept of friend requests as well as request declines and unfriending if such a word exists and since online communications have become an integral part of the daily existence of individuals, I believe that this is an excellent place to begin improvements for human race relations.

For both business and personal use, because each are based on common like, and now common dislike as an emerging trend, I decided to open up a case study of my own, and since we are friends here at Your Friendly Neighborhood PimpHop.com, I will be including your experiences both positive and negative that you may choose to share, to come up with a working solution that would satisfy the needs and meet the expectations of the individuals who are involved and interested in betterment..

From my own personal standpoint, we tend to add friends and accept requests from individuals who have similar views, goals, and preferences which is where the criteria of the content here at this online publication is selected from which is a healthy shift from individualism to collectivism in which the topics discussed are relevant and relative to a broad audience as opposed to a search for props  by me, R.B., so with that said, lets take matters into our own hands to make things well and better.

(Repost) From Ali To Obama- How The West Was ONE

(End Note)

vf5There has got to be something to these guys with funny sounding Middle Eastern names, with the gift of gab, that leads to the accomplishment of achievements, previously and popularly perceived as impossible  and unattainable.

Upon pondering in which direction to travel during the past few days, I recalled that this is an entry that I was saving for just the right time, and I believe that today, April 08, 2009 is a fitting time.

Although the hype has subsequently lessened after the historic inauguration proceedings of President Obama, after close to his first 100 days in office, I thought it would be a good idea to retrace some of the steps

which led to the arrival of Obama in the Oval Office.

Chalk it up as a coincidence, I recall the early morning hours of January 20, 2009 as I had fallen asleep on the couch and woke up with the T.V. still on. It was between the hours of 2-4 a.m. and the movie I had awakened  to was ALI, starring Will Smith.

I decided to watch it all the way through, and then reflected back to the time in 2002 when Muhammad Ali received his star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame.

For those who have been following the proceedings here at this publication for long enough, you are aware of my tendencies to explore the reasons why, as I have always been a person who is fully aware that every effect is a result of a cause.

I can asses that President Obama saw fit to pay homage to his predecessors who paved the path of CHANGE before him, and in 2002
Muhammad Ali became the first individual to have his star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame placed on the wall inside of the then, newly opened Hollywood Landmark, Kodak Theater located at the historic Hollywood and Highland location, which is now the current home to the Academy Awards festivities.

As a arm chair historian and a person raised with the insight of prominent figures such as Ali, I have actually conducted extensive research in regards to his official title as
THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME.

As a fighter, many avid pugilism experts have stated that in regards to Ali’s physical capabilities, there are and have been many great boxing champions who’s athletic attributes far exceed the capabilities of Muhammad Ali, yet he still continues to hold the title of THE GREATEST, and is respected as such.

From what I can tell, it is actually Ali’s mental & spiritual  facilities that set him apart from all  fighters, as well as most  gifted and talented people in general.

If you were to study combat strategies, you will see that Ali’s wit and verbal abilities was where a majority of his actual fighting abilities were contained as he was able to talk a situation in and out of existence and realize a winning outcome time and time again.

Following this trail, I set out to explore the reasons as to why Muhammad
Ali is currently the only  public figure past or present, to have his star placed on a wall and not on the sidewalk as with the rest of the luminaries.

The simplicity of the answer for me has actually been life transforming, and I would venture to say it had a similar effect for our nations current President.

I will now share the following words of wisdom with you.
Ryder Cup Golf Ali

Muhammad Ali’s new star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame will never be walked on like the other 2,188 famous names.

The former boxer insisted his star be installed on the wall of the new Kodak Theater complex.

Ali said he didn’t want to be walked on by people who “disrespect him”.

“All my life, growing up as a little boy, I always said if I could get famous I would do things to help my people that other people won’t do,” Ali said.

“I don’t care about being famous. I care about getting the ear of people, because if people hear truth, some will accept it.”

He used the opportunity to say he thought black Americans should assert their identity by acquiring indigenous names – not the names of white Europeans.

That’s why he changed his name from Cassius Clay, the boxer said.
“I changed my name – that shook the world,” he said.

If the ends justify the means, I believe it to be in my best interest to always give credit where it is due, and continue to stay the course, and welcome any who believe themselves to be worthy enough to travel along on the journey with us.
