  1. That's a decent start. Now if all the corporations who let themselves be shaken down by organizations like the Urban League would do the same, there might actually be a chance to encourage some change in behavior and devleop some decent leadership east of Troost.
    But instead we'll have a few more hundred thousand dollars disappear into the Chamber Big 5 Urban black hole.
    Some things just never change.

  2. And this news is shocking?

    Many knew this was something that would soon be ruined and a joke guess they was right.

  3. That guy had about 7 or 8 kids and the same number of 'baby mommas'.

    I can only think about him on Father's Day.

    Thanksgiving and Christmas is just too complicated.

  4. Where will all his kids go to school now? I think they made up 85 percent of the enrollment.

  5. Just after Derrick died, people started wearing those "58" buttons. A co-worker had one, and one day I asked him "So does the 58 mean 5 women and 8 kids?" He wasn't too pleased.
