Last night
Last night we had “date night” with a couple of other couples we are friends with, and went to see Charlie Murphy at the Improv.
Charlie Murphy claimed that Michael Jackson has been reincarnated and has taken over Sammy Sosa’s body.
Also, the guy who opened for Charlie Murphy was a guy who, when they rattled off his credits, the first one they mentioned was “House Party 3.”
I didn’t even realize there was a “House Party 3.” I thought House Party 2 was so bad, it killed the franchise.

Did people get the joke? i.e. Has this been out there bout Sosa?
First time I’ve seen or heard. It’s like when Kramer met his black girlfriend’s parents, bizarro.

Ah, ok.
I knew you lived in Houston, I just didn’t know they had an Improv there (or like the 15-ish other cities that apparently have one…neato).
The Addison Improv?
That place seems to draw some fairly decent talent. I always thought Charlie Murphy was a riot on the Chappelle Show. I was wondering what he’d been up to since Dave went off the deep end.
Chappelle hasn't...
gone off the deep end.

I saw Kid hosting some video show the other day, anyone know what it was?

In the future
I hope we don’t read the same rant about Vlad Guerrero, but I’m afraid we will.
I saw something...
(can’t remember where now) that talked about people who used that creme like Sosa to lighten their complexion. I guess it damages and thins your skin out pretty bad. She got to the point that she said her skin would bruise on touch.
Is being white really worth that shit?

Nope

Good god
That picture is horribly unsettling. I may not sleep tonight.
Truth be told, that’s partly because I’m having nightmares involving men in purple uniforms.
Tony Romo is that you?

Funny thing
This place was agog with The Sosa simply because JD signed him.
I looked at The Sosa and said he was perfect “for a team expecting to win 75 games.”

This place was 'agog' with 'The' Sosa?
Really? I don’t recall much beside ambivalence.

LOL. The Revisionist History Josey is my favorite version.
I don’t want to encourage him, but I can’t help it.

We all loved the Sosa signing when it went down… Oh, man. I love it.

this is so weird b/c it's Sammy F'n Sosa
I’ve spent a good amount of time in the Dominican Republic, and some Dominicans with darker skin use a “skin cream” (aka skin bleach) to make themselves look lighter skinned. They do this because the darker skinned peeps are looked down on by the more elite lighter skinned peeps (aka Spanish descendents). It’s some f’ed up shit…and weird that Sammy would partake because he is so damned famous down there.

Guess they're not too confident the one-armed Pirate will recover
If they’re still looking for a shitty catcher to waste a 40-man spot on.
Shit.

I was going to add another comment to this thread..
but I’m so caught up in the magic that is Snap Hook Herald. FINALLY, GOD HAS ANSWERED MY PRAYERS!
