salad

Hairmegeddon

The other day, I bought a salad from a restaurant I’ve never been to before. I ate 2/3s of it, and openly proclaimed that it was outstanding. The taste gave me the urge to grin like an idiot, but I thought to myself “Leon, act like you been there before” and wisely kept my cool. [...]

He Never Had A Chance

Once again, on the topic of names that scream out “I’m from the ‘hood”…Why would someone do this to their child? Naming a kid something stupid like “Darealyst” should be considered a form of abuse. Maybe not punishable by jail, but by something equally ridiculous and embarrassing so that the parent can know what the [...]

Toshica’s Finest

During a recent trip to the grocery store, I walked in the hair care aisle and noticed a brand called Toshica’s Finest. I thought to myself: “You know what?

Help Catch The Butt Slasher

There is a butt-slasher on the loose in Fairfax, VA. Seriously; I’m not making this up. A crazy man is actually going around knifing women on their backsides while they shop. As much as I wish this were one of my jokes, it’s real, just like the MD skeet bandit. I want to be the [...]

US Debt Ceiling Talk

I have purposely been avoiding talking about the U.S. debt crisis saga over here. I’m no economist; I’m a humorist. If you want random observations, I’m your guy. Fiscal responsibility, well, let’s just say that there’s a reason I don’t answer phone calls from numbers I do not recognize. The decisions that caused me to [...]
