This feels like a good day to test. Let's compare check the pronunciation of words around this great land.
Pajawmas or Pajahmas?
Ant or Awnt? (Aunt)
Crevice or Crevahce? (Crevice)
Peecan or Puhcahn? (Pecan)
Loyer or Law-yer? (Lawyer)
Carmel or Care-a-mel? (Caramel)
Surrup, Seerup, or Sihrup? (Syrup)
You guys, you all, y'all, or youse guys?

This is actually a good topic for discussion.
As the official esteemed duke of the brothas on this board, I'd like to ask you who you would deem as being worthy for enshrinement in the White-Man-Accepted-By-the Brothahood-Hall of Fame.
Let me present to you the list of nominees, and you can induct as many or as few as you like.
I present to you the following:
Michael McDonald -- the soulful crooner who you'd never guess was white if you had never seen his face. Such was his acceptance in the black community that his hits from the 70's were sampled by Nate Dogg and Warren G in the 1993 hit "Regulators".
Bobby Caldwell -- not necessarily known as a soul singer, but this old white dude had brothas jammin in their Caddies, Buicks, and Lincolns to this hit:
David Bowie -- again, not regarded as a soul singer, but he created the funky smash "Fame" that earned him an invite to Soul Train:
Hall and Oates -- these two whiteys were part of what was coined the "Rock and Soul" era. With hits like Sarah Smile, I Can't Go for That, and One on One, it's not uncommon to catch these tunes still playing in barber shops to this day.
Eminem -- arguably the dopest lyricist of the 21st century and the first white rapper to be widely accepted in a predominantly black culture and movement. Nothing more needs to be said.
Justin Timberlake -- A poser of the highest order or a guy who was never allowed to be his true self? Timberlake started off as the whitest most white whiteboy from Whitesville. Goofy haircuts, a voice that sounded like it hadn't gone through puberty, and singer of teeny-bopper hits combined to make this guy one of the corniest dudes in music. But over the next 15 years, he would undergo a drastic transformation and now he's a singer of R&B music who has collaborated with many prominent black R&B and Hip-Hop artists.
There you have it [MENTION=6]1bigfan13[/MENTION]
Who, if any, would you deem worthy of HOF induction and who needs to be thrown back into the white general population?

Now I present to you nominees for the Hall of Shame:
Am I being too harsh on these guys, or do some or even all belong in the Hall of Shame for their awful attempt at trying to be "down"?


I fired up Netflix and I noticed that someone in the family had been binge watching Bob Ross.
I confronted my daughter first, who is the resident artist. Denial.
Hit up my son. He admitted he watches it to help him sleep.![]()

Interesting Bob Ross fact that I recently learned about at one of those group "Painting with a Twist" places.....Bob Ross was actually a military veteran. 20 years in the Air Force.
Threw me for a loop since I've always associated him as just the soft-spoken PBS artist.
He was also in prison according to what I read at one time.
