SUGARBEAR IS SHININ'
What the hell happened to Sharpton's conk? That was a thing of beauty, and a tribute to the polytechnic miracle of straighteners. Now he's all respectable looking. Shit, he looks just like Charlie Rangel. Another brother who amuses me. I like Charlie and Al despite myself. They're witty and entertaining guys. I disagree with everything they say after the initial inhale, but they're funny.
Charlie, of course, is a Korean War vet. Al saw some firefights, too, significantly the one he instigated at Freddie's Fashion Mart. They both have blood on their hands, but at least the blood on Charlie's hands is from godless communist peasants, and not some poor schlub who was trying to earn an honest living in New York City.
I hope Al gets some matching federal funds, so he can stroll down to the har emporium in his lent suit and see if they can't coax that conk back out.
If not, at this rate he'll be using Bump No More on his shaving zone.
