American Actor and Comedian, Chris Tucker, will be performing live at the Civic Center in Mobile Alabama on November 8, 2014. His performance has gotten very good reviews, on-line, from the audience and I think it’s a must see for anyone that loves comedy. You can join him on Google + at the following link to find out what he’s doing and where he’s performing next: https://plus.google.com/116525969499682780878/posts/gqmGBiqE5Wc.

He’s acted in movies such as Friday and Rush Hour, plus he’s done stand-up comedy for Def Comedy Jam in the 1990’s. I completely loved him as Detective James Carter; the man has mad skills. It doesn't hurt that he’s cute and funny; nice combination! He’s a native of Atlanta Georgia -born August 31, 1971- and he has one child; a son.

This is what’s happening in our neck of the woods and if you don’t want to stay home November 8^th, 2014 and be bored go get your laugh on at the Mobile Civic Center in Mobile Alabama. Tickets can be purchased on-line at Ticketmasters: http://www.ticketmaster.com/Chris-Tucker-tickets/artist/985154.

I thought I would share a quote with you that a friend gave to me.

"Pain nourishes courage, you can't be brave if you've only had
wonderful things happen to you."
Mary Tyler Moore

I encourage you to think of this quote the next time you're in pain and remember to be brave. I know how difficult that can be but what choice do you really have? I've asked myself that question many times; since I've been living with fibromyalgia. I too tell myself to be brave and quite often mind you because I live in a constant state of pain. I manage my pain by finding different ways to enjoy life and I try to laugh often. I encourage you to do the same. Much love to you all, as always I'm Lady PJ.

P.S. Be Brave!

Silent Streets...

Silent Streets…

Written by Lady PJ aka Philessa Hooks Jenkins

I believe that something’s are almost impossible to put to words, and the loss of a child is one of those things. Our community is still reeling over the loss of 8 year old Hiawayi Robinson; the little girl that didn't have the opportunity to make it to her ninth birthday party.

We (this community) look at her pictures and we see our child smiling back at us; our little girl with attitude, charm, innocence, and beauty.

Now we’re all looking for answers from the Prichard Police Department and they in turn are silent. It’s as if the case has gone cold before it even got started. Why aren't the streets talking? It talks any other time! Why now is it silent?

Case in point; why did Hiawayi leave her home to go to a cousin’s house to get money from her Dad? Why didn't he (her Dad) go take the money to her; where she was -at the time? She was an eight year old child! Plus, who was she going to the store with and who gave her the four dollars? Did the Cops secure the money from the till just-in-case the ones were still in the store; a valuable piece of evidence may I add (if they did their job).

What I’d really like to know; “Is the father a suspect in this case?” In light of recent events with these Father’s (Donald C. Spirit and Timothy Roy Jones Jr.) killing their children; I’d say it wouldn't be far-fetched to label him one; a suspect. Who else knew she wanted to go to the store and get some candy? Hum! Was there an insurance policy on Hiawayi and who benefits; sometimes it’s easier just to follow the money?

I saw on the news where the Police department raided his (her father) home and the home of his current girlfriend but was it enough? I’ll tell you what! I don’t believe in this drug deal gone wrong theory. No drug dealer is going to purposefully bring that much heat and attention to their activities by killing an eight year old child.

But wait! Is it just me or has the Mother been acting sort of odd? I don’t recall one time during any of her interviews or time on camera that she actually asked for the killer to be caught or asked for justice for her child.

I’m just saying and if I’m wrong can someone please correct me. I just feel like I want to see some anger from her. Her child was murdered and most of the time I see her on the news smiling. I would be screaming for justice on the rooftop of my house for my child and nobody would be able to shut me up. How can she obtain such joy and peace inside after such a tragedy?

There are answers out there people but I believe the cops need to do a better job to find them. I also believe that some of you can probably help; awaken these silent streets! We need justice for Hiawayi.

This is your girl, Lady PJ, much love and peace.
