Heartwarming Teaching Moments with Mr. Fob

The scene: Dinner at the Fobcave.

S-Boogie: Rolls are rolls.

Mr. Fob: Really?

S-Boogie: Yeah. Everything is everything.

Mr. Fob: That's what Lauryn Hill says.

S-Boogie: Who's Lauryn Hill?

Mr. Fob puts The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill in the CD player and plays "Everything is Everything," then shows S-Boogie the pictures of Ms. Hill on the CD cover. They share A Moment.



Excuse me while I wipe a tear from my eye.

  3. That is funny. Was that a real conversation? The only CD that I have of Lauren Hill is the single of "Everything is Everything". I really liked that song - along with "Killing me Softly" which I had on a "slow jams" cassette tape :). But I think my favorite ever is "Eye on the Sparrow" that she sang on Sister Act.

  4. The entire Miseducation album really is worth owning. I also really like "His Eye is on the Sparrow."
