"when I'm in a fight I throw a mean hook properly"

Besides the impressive skills of the security guard, standard street fight caught on tape (which of course I discovered on World Star Hip-Hop). I couldn't focus on the clip so much because I couldn't get over how cross-eyed the anchor was. Reminds me of this cock-eyed chick I use to date. I had to break-up with her though, she was seeing someone on the side.

They Raping Everybody out here!!!

It's been a while since I've had something to post here. I was thinking that in the age of Obama, maybe local news programs where headed in a different direction. Then along comes Antoine Dobson. Utter Genius. Way to go Huntsville, Alabama. Who knew attmepted rape could be so hilarious.

Celebrity Edition!!!

What do you think was the Godfather of Soul's finest moment caught on video? Do you think of his legendary performance at the TAMI Show? Do you think of his performance at the music festival during the rumble in the jungle? Well there are many more great James Brown moments but the one that I can't seem to shake is this one.

Now you can't blame the media for James Brown's oft kilter appearance. The anchor looks as caught off guard as the rest of us. However, when you invite Tracy Morgan to your LIVE local talk show, you are asking for it.

More of the Kids

While we are on the kids, this is an interesting story. It felt kind of creepy when they asked her to model the dress.

gangsta 7 year old steals car

Ah! the rare crime fluff piece. Usually crime is not a laughing matter, unless it involves toddlers committing felonies! It is something to see a future ex-convict in the making isn't it? There is nothing wrong with this boy that my grandma's switch couldn't cure!

Bubb Rubb and Lil Sis

This is the news story that inspired this blog. I have to admit, I am a fan of Bubb Rubb and was titillated by the rumor that he was getting his own television show.

Leprechauns in da Hood

You wonder how a local news story about leprechaun sightings could end up making black people look like fools. That is, until you realize the news story comes from Mobile, Alabama. I think my favorite part is the "Amateur Sketch".
