Y'all already know that I the One and Only Electrifying Mojo...that ain't a secret!

My hubby and I were just coming home from the store and we saw a car at the end of our block with a distressed motorist by the road side. I asked my hubby to stop and help. The motorist needed a jump. So we obliged! The motorist said that she didn't have any money to compensate us for our time and effort. We of course said that wasn't necessary. She said, "I must give you something to show my appreciation. I am going to give you something that is near and dear to me!"

Y'all...just as sure as my name is Danielle, she walked to her car and came back with an autographed copy of "The Mental Machine" by Mojo and put it in my hands!

I have yet to fully wrap my brain around the significance, the symbolism and the purpose of it all!

Y'all, this is almost too much for me to handle right now, for real!! I'm scared!!

That is just 2 cool.

It's like the rarity of someone (U) stopping 2 help someone is rewarded with a rarity that was all 4 U.

I mean check it... they could have given U any one of a million CDs, books, whatever... and it ends up being the One and Only.

BEAUTIFUL.

I have an autographed copy of that book too, and I would NEVER give it away to a total stranger, sorry. That's cool tho.

WOW. Awesome!

Oook What exactly is that? I'm from Detroit




Smooches;)

It's a 500 page Book that Mojo wrote. It's got a bunch of poems and essays in it, very deep stuff. He also did a book on tape version, complete with sound effects and atmopheric sounds, fully produced.

I think had she put that in my hands I'd have straight fainted on the spot.

Hold the fuck up! You did say you're from Detroit, right? How old are you? That's significant due to the simple fact, that if you are at least 30 years old, you need your ass whooped for making that statement!!! If you are younger than that I will give you a pass because it's likely that you just don't know that of what you speak!

However, ignorance of the facts, will only exclude you just so far, with me! If you truly don't know, just ask and leave it at that and I will not hurt your feelings! Otherwise, especially now with the passing of Michael Jackson, the chips will fall where they may!!

You need to calm your ass down I'm not sure who you are and what makes you think you can type to me that way, but you need to bring it down a few levels.

I am from Detroit and I am pretty close to 30, but I still don't get the significance. Now, WHO is gonna whoop my ass? NOT ONE DAMN PERSON, ESPECIALLY NOT AN ORGER. I asked my mother, since she is over 30 and she didn't know what the hell it was either. Neither did my bf, my grandmother, my aunts, uncles or friends...who are all MOJO fans, so I'm thinking it's not as important as you're making this to be.

I grew up listening to MOJO...I actually see him atleast twice a week at a local station where he is the program manager. Next time I see him, I will make mention of this book and see if he will tell me about it. I googled it and didn't get too much information, so apparently it's not something sought after or anything

Mods, please lock this before it goes any further.

Somebody needs to switch to decaf. Such a tirade just because she doesn't care about this book?

It's a great book, but I like the idea that it's a hidden treasure and not a lot of people know about it.

I really, really, really don't know why the OP reacted the way she did, that's some serious bullshit right there, and I wish I hadn't set foot in this thread to begin with.

Misha, if you do talk to Mojo, please tell him Tone from Finney High class of '93 said what up tho!
