I had a chance to catch Get Him To The Greek last night, and surprisingly, it was much funnier than it looks in the commercials. The trailers for this film do it absolutely no justice whatsoever. At a certain point, I was actually in tears laughing! Plot wise, it was nothing groundbreaking. As far as [...]
A Short-Sleeved Turtleneck?!
by ListenToLeon on 03. Jun, 2010 in Black, Clothes, Fashion, Old, Tacky
Sanford and Son was something else! I have the famous Rollo appreciation photo up on my Twitter profile, and my friend Shawn sent me the above picture of some tall fellow’s horribly epic fashion statement. Shawn and the legendary P from my tribute story started cracking jokes, and I’ve cut & pasted them below: LocStarSilva: [...]
Chuck Brown Has A Chips Ahoy Commercial
by ListenToLeon on 03. Jun, 2010 in Chuck Brown, Commercial, DC, Facebook, Go-Go, Video
Just saw the new Chuck Brown commercial for Chips Ahoy while watching Enter The Dragon on cable. I guess the folks at AMC and Kraft think that anyone up after midnight watching Bruce Lee beat the hell out of people is probably craving junk food right about now. And you know what? They’re right! Junk [...]

I have a special goal for this year’s Black Weblog Awards: Join the Hall of Fame with another win in the Humor Blog category. I won that one in 2006 and 2008, and if I win it one more time, I’ll be ineligible to win it again because I’m the shi… I mean, because it [...]
She Dresses Like Sammy Davis Jr With Breasts

…but I liked her album! Had to make a joke real quick, but I’m glad that Janelle Monae is experiencing success with her new album. In the words of the late great Sammy Davis Jr., “Sheboing boing-boiiiiing!“
My Gary Coleman Tribute
by ListenToLeon on 28. May, 2010 in Death, Gary Coleman, Hasselhoff, Martin Lawrence, Uncategorized
Over the years, I have made a lot of jokes at Gary Coleman’s expense. I’ve called the man ashy, laughed at his legendary temper and even put a f*cked-up part in my hair like he wore in his “Diff’rent Strokes” days. With every arrest or assault on Scottie Pippen, I had ammo for my comedic [...]
AOL is 25 Years Old?
by ListenToLeon on 27. May, 2010 in 80's, Child, Computer, Game, Techie, internet
America Online is allegedly celebrating it’s 25th birthday. I can’t believe that AOL is really 25 years old. Who had the internet in 1985? The only thing I remember about computers from back then is “Oregon Trail” and printing stuff on paper that was attached to other pieces of paper. Making big-ass pixelated “HAPPY BIRTHDAY [...]
