1. Are you writing about it?
2. Will you publish it?

4. Whatever happened to Share? Remember that story?
5. Remember the church in N.C.?
6. Remember the fake cop who came to the door?
7. Remember the night in Oakland when I met the guy at the slam then we took him to the party and he tried to embarrass me?
8. Remember the time we got kicked out of the nail salon? Seriously, I'm gonna write about that one day.
9. Remember when Blank and I broke up (because he was a major jerk and what kind of lonely trip was I on to have given him the time of day in the first place?) and he called you to see if you would go out with him?
10. Are you working on your story?

14. Remember when Leimert dude liked you and I totally blocked because he beat up his ex girlfriend, who was a friend of mine?
15. Remember the night at the poetry spot you were on stage and Too Black Too Strong was sitting in the front row and you called him out (so gangsta) and dedicated a poem to him?
16. Remember when BlahBlah and I broke up and then three days later he showed up at my gig with a woman and they sat in the front and before I went on stage I went to my car and cried then you came out and said, "You are Ja Muthafuckin Ha and you better get yo ass out there and act like it!" and I went on stage and showed out?
17. Do you know that I can go on for days down memory lane because we've been through so much together?
Our friendship is valuable to me. We have been through ups and downs and we've always been there. Remember that.
Do you remember the day I was in Africa and I was feeling down I chatted you and told you what was going on and you wrote a blog for me and made me remember that no matter what is going in the moment that I am truly blessed, full of stories and have someone in the world that really knows me and loves me?
