JC Aka Triple Threat -- The Dip It Challenge




Triple Threat In Da House


You go Triple T- JC Aka Triple Threat by Brian The Hammer Jackson










It's been a long week, I just interviewed a great guest on Thurs.  Fri morning came  6 AM PST, My mind wonders how can I give JC a great interview, I say that because I consider JC family which makes me just wanna have fun and your glad they came. The problem with that is you might miss an opportunity for JC to promote something, so you go in as if he is someone you don’t know and try to find out what’s he doing. You take away JC good looks, quick wit, Talent, what you have left? you still have one special dude with a will to make things better. 7A.M  is here fri morning it’s showtime, JC comes in the studio and you can feel the energy fill the studio up. ( My coffee even says: Damn I wish I had that energy) JC came on like a pro, He promoted his songs,tours, merchandise  which is cool.


JC aka Triple Threat 

But I wanted to go deeper, His fears his wants his flaws, JC came in with another Agenda, a passion he connected  himself with, A charity to help stop bullying, I tried to bait him by talking about I think bullying is a good thing, JC didn’t waver ignored my dumb ass and gave a true heartfelt answer. You can listen to the podcast by hitting the link Hammer & Ellen in the morning Triple Threat in The House.  JC came in as a  professional & left as family. What does he have when you take away his Good Looks Wit, & Talent? You got parents like Lady T Mr T and you still got one special dude.  Lady T (JC MOM) she is a shark, Sure she is sweet,looking all fashion model Ms Thang. She is a no nonsense business woman and she will let you know it if you step out of line. She also one of the most beautiful lady inside and out you will meet. What about (Mr.T) Now we are talking.  I ask Mr T have you seen the bad side of Lady T? He thought for a moment and said back in the 90’s ( I’m thinking you are a brave man and I will remember you at your funeral) He continued He said just  i saw just a bit a  little bit of her halo slipped….. Oh man…

Interview With The Scary Guy

Amazing interview with The Scary Guy.

The Scary Guy is an expert in determining the root causes of emotional experiences that manifest themselves throughout communication on an individual, group and global scale.

He is unique in his capacity to reach audiences of all ages and backgrounds and his innovative programs are tailored for all age and education levels. Scary is a powerful motivational force, inspiring audiences to take pride in themselves, and join him in the reality of “eliminating hate, violence and prejudice worldwide.”

He teaches people to understand that they have the power to create change in their own world through taking full responsibility for all of their own behavior in the form of words and actions as Energy.

Vision Heart Limited with Kids Vision Heart, Inc. is on the leading edge of a new effort to eliminate hate violence and prejudice – teaching people how to teach love and acceptance, worldwide.
For years, nations have experienced the relentless growth of “The World’s Number One Social Disease; Hate, Violence and Prejudice,” which Scary describes as an insidious disease, polarizing our youth and societies and precluding us from achieving the true potential of our common humanity.

His sole mission is “The Total Elimination of Hate, Violence and Prejudice Worldwide.”  These were the first words that Scary spoke when he began his mission in 1998. Since that day, Scary has worked with over 10 million people through Television, film, radio, social media and live shows around the world promoting peace through the teaching of Love and Acceptance of all people. His audience consists of both youth and adults on an individual, community and society level, unaware of how they are using negative energy to meet their needs. (Scary, add your credit here)

Today I am interviewing The Scary Guy.  Scary is a very busy man, and I am greatly honored that he has taken the time to allow me to have him as a guest here today.  Before we begin, I’d like to share a quote from him:

“The power to create World Peace resides in each and every one of us – a process of creation, from the moment you wake-up until the moment you go to bed at night. It is your power, your choice and your responsibility to create that peace for you in all of your thoughts, words, actions and deeds every day of your life.” - The Scary Guy 1998

Scary writes classical music, is an artist a singer an entertainer and comedian.

In 1998 he changed his name to The Scary Guy, and went on the road to show people how to achieve world peace in their lifetime.

Today I offer the introduction to a re-release of a book which deals with a subject that I am quite passionate about: bullying.

Bullied as a child, I am well aware of the damage to a child's self-esteem, feelings of security and safety, and joy in life.  The time of my travail lasted from age seven to eleven, finally ending when I fought back.

One can only imagine my feelings when my son began to experience the same problem, not because, like me, he was poor, ill fed and dressed, but for the simple reason that, like the author, he was born...different.  Christopher was born with a moderately severe clefting of the lip, gums and hard and soft palates.

His bullying began in first grade.  Thankfully, his teacher was one who could not abide such behavior.  Unfortunately, my son's art teacher could not claim the same intolerance to bullying.  Although he won a state award for his artwork, she flunked him, and was heard saying to another teacher, "I can't stand looking at that deformed mouth," and affecting a dramatic shudder.

In middle school, my son was again bullied because of his clefting, and once again, a teacher was also involved.

Disgusting, unconscionable, unbelievable! But it exists.

In The Snake Pit: Jr. High Can be Torture,  the author touches on this subject, and in a style that I can only compare to The Laramie Project, chronicles the life of a young girl who is bullied simply because she looks different.  Pay attention!  This book should be in every school, and most definitely should be made into a documentary.

The Snake Pit: Jr. High can be Torture Synopsis:

Cinda doesn't look like other twelve-year-old girls. A facial defect, and the surgery to correct it, has left her face scarred and disfigured. When she walks into Hargrove Junior High for the first time, Cinda knows the other kids won't see how smart she is, or what a good friend she could be. The other kids will see her as a monster, and her life will be torture.

The school cafeteria, or The Snake Pit, as the kids call it, is the prime location for bullying. One pretty girl in particular takes an instant dislike to Cinda. Day after day she is pushed, tripped, and laughed at. Not all the other kids bully her, but only one tries to help.

Charlene Carsten is Cinda's only friend. She tries to stop the bullying, but the other kids won't listen. She tries to tell the Principal, but he only sees what he wants to. She tries to tell the teachers, but they all say the same thing, “kids will be kids.”

When Cinda falls victim to a vicious prank at a school dance, it sets off a series of events that will change the lives of everyone involved.

Order your copy here, http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NJCKFCO/,ask your library to carry it, and definitely ask your school to include this book in their curriculum.
