I AM NOT A JINX! Oh, and FREE RON ISLEY--AGAIN!
Ok, before I post what I came to post let me say this: Just about every Isley album has come out between May and August. Usually when they break out in August, it's right around my birthday. For example, 'Eternal' was released August 7, 2001--my 18th birthday. Now this...that I'm going to post...just aint right. I swear, if he has to go and he makes it out and we ever happen to meet and he finds out my birthday, the man will probably have a flashback and slap the name of Jesus off my lips. I'm so serious. I AM NOT A JINX! DON'T HATE ME! (oh, this doesn't necessarily apply to Kim cause she's not a fan...but, I'm just saying, if you ever meet Ron Isley, don't tell him your birthday or you just might catch a slap of biblical proportions as well...matter of fact, I might need to call my cousin and warn her, too.)
Lend your support to a Presidential Pardon for Ronald Isley!
July 25, 2007
LEND YOUR SUPPORT TO AN EXECUTIVE PRESIDENTIAL PARDON FOR THE LEGENDARY RON ISLEY AKA MR. BIGGS
In an effort to protect Mr. Isley from incarceration for non-payment of taxes, we urge his fans to call, fax or email the White House immediately to help Ronald stay out of prison. The situation is especially urgent because Mr. Isley is currently scheduled to report to begin serving a 3 year sentence on August 7th of this year. In lieu of the recent charges brought against Mr. Isley, he is currently in the process of a total restitution of his financial obligations to the IRS. Mr. Isley has also offered to perform for troops at various military bases to help heal the country and show his support for their tireless efforts to protect this country. It is important to point out that Ronald Isley has no prior criminal record, and has been a law-abiding, taxpaying employer since 1956. There is also concern that due to a variety of health issues, (Mr. Isley suffered a stroke in 2004 and was diagnosed with kidney cancer in 2006) without proper care Mr. Isley's health could decline further and there is genuine concern as to whether he could survive a lengthy incarceration.
Ronald Isley & The Isley Brothers are an important part of this country's musical history and a part of the Def Jam family so let's band together to keep one of our living legends out of jail.
