Lockhart Line 4.16 (late edition) Tribute to Uncle B.


Tribute to Uncle B.
4.12.60 ~ 4.12.10
Today, we say so long, but not farewell to a man of many faces.  Uncle B. wasn’t always the happiest person as I remember, but, in the last year I can say with certain confidence that He (The Lord) had made a change in the life of my uncle.  Gone was the mean-spirited and sometimes cantankerous man who would offer you a knuckle sandwich if you looked in his direction the wrong way.  A renewed and rejuvenated man now, sold out for Christ had been re-born.  Now, he would sooner offer a hug, a smile, or a word of encouragement to help brighten your day.  He had been looking for work and had enlisted my help.  When we last spoke about a week or so ago, it was because I’d seen a posting for a job fair at AutoZone in Garland.  I called my mom to tell her the info to pass along to Uncle B. but, she didn’t answer. 
I left a message and before I could finish mom’s cell was beeping in.  I quickly answered, “Hey mom, what’s up? Did you get my message?”  To my surprise, it wasn’t mom on the other end but Uncle B.  I could hear in his voice a subtle tone of despair because he still hadn’t found any work.  I told him that we’d make it through and everything would be alright. As we ended the call he told me he loved me and for the first time that I could remember I loved him just as much as he loved me.  I wanted badly to help Uncle B. because he had stepped in and performed so admirably since he’d moved in with mom about a year or so ago.
Well, gladly B. didn’t get the job he’d been searching for in this state or the world for that matter.  Unbeknownst to any of us, he had applied to and been accepted with an exclusive construction company.  The requirements were simple live holy and never get tired.  A man with a heart as big as B’s would be just the man for that job!  See, this construction company is starting a new development.  He’d be assigned to the mansion building department at Heavenly Gates Construction Co.  With joy and gladness in my heart I can say that through it all, I’ve learned, as my uncle did, to depend upon the Lord. 
As you leave today, don’t be sad or blue but, be comforted in knowing that they are still taking applications at Heavenly Gates and positions are opening daily.  If you have been waiting until later to apply, don’t be a fool and miss out on the opportunity to work for the one employer who will never fire you.  If you need help finding a number to dial to reach someone at the company, don’t worry or fret because the lines at Heavenly Gates are open 24/7/365 and the line is always answered by the C.E.O. himself and his name is Jesus.  Just fall on your knees and speak from your heart and surely he’ll come into your life and offer you a position to be on the roll.  I love you all and I miss my uncle but, he is in a better place now.  Be blessed.

Lockhart Line 4.9 Tiger's back

Guess who's back! It's the Tiger man!! Yes Tiger Woods made a fantastic return to PGA action on yesterday, recording a sparkling -4 par round putting him just two shots off the lead in the early rounds at the Masters. Day 2 is today, wonder what Tiger has in store for the world!

Lockhart Line 4.8 - Tiger's New Nike Ad Stirs the Pot






The booming baritone of the late Earl Woods awakens from the grave and he has questions for Tiger. Among the questions that the post-humus parent wants answered in the latest TV ad from Nike, Inc., is if Tiger has learned his lesson? No, disrespect to the man asking the question but, the answer is a resounding, No!


With all of the prying from tabloid media outlets, Woods hasn't had time to learn much of anything in the few months since the news of his string of tawdry infidelities began making national headlines. Besides, Woods spent several years being a turd so he's going to need more than a few months to learn anything. Some will say that the TV ad is out too soon for any real reflection to occur by Woods or anyone else close to the situation.

Many others will say that it is downright distasteful for the disgraced Woods to try to bank on his indiscretions with the aid of his deceased father.

I disagree with that notion entirely.

We live in a "green society" and by "green" I'm not talking about clean coal technologies or hybrid cars. I'll borrow a phrase from rapper DJ Quik, who once famously said, "If it don't make dollars, then it don't make sense!" Now that Woods is back playing the game of golf, anyone that gets back on the Woods band wagon will be making more green than they've ever seen!

Lockhart Line 4.7 - Tiki gives his preggo wifey the Heisman pose!!

Lockhart Line 4.7 Erykah's Window Seat...Turning Heads and Making Headlines

Erykah Badu's now infamous video "Window Seat" is doing more than just turning heads. In fact the artist is still making headlines a week or so later after the video which some have labeled as "shocking" went viral on the Web.

After meeting with the city prosecutors, the Dallas police have decided to cite the singer for disorderly conduct and sent her the ticket in the mail.

Look, I'm not going to act like I'm naive.  I get it. Not only was an illegal venture, but the low-budget guerilla or rogue video was filmed in broad daylight, in plain view of families visiting Dealey Plaza, where President John F. Kennedy was assassinated.

Erykah's move was an extraordinarily provocative one considering how she ends the video by dis-robing and then falling in a lifeless heap, at almost the exact location where the then president met the fate of the assassin's bullet on the "grassy knoll" more than 40 years ago.

But, come on man! It's 2010 not 1910!  This was art plain and simple to label it otherwise would be tragic. 

Check out the video for yourself!

Ok so I don't expect anyone outside of myself and some of the journalists out there in the blogosphere will actually stop down long enough to watch and learn about the history and future of all types of media but if you have five plus hours to devote to learning more about where we've come from and where we are going in the new digital age of media,  this is an excellent place to start!!
