    “…When a Man loves a woman who doesn’t love him”

    Personally, I’m already sick to death of “Slapgate“; but I stumbled across an article in which comedian Earthquake (I’ve never heard of him either) talks about Will Smith and brings up a few interesting points that I think seemed relevant to this blog.
