Talkin That Shit

I remember it like it was yesterday…

(((flashback sequence)))

The year was 1989.

After a morning of the Smurfs, Snorks, and Bionic Six, I was… still front of that damn TV. And there was something much, much different from my beloved cartoons on. It was called HBO. Channel 5 on Greensboro NC’s Cablevision. Man HBO was the SHIT! I could sit in front of that damn thing and watch EVERY movie. “Just One of the Guys (Big ups to Terry Griffith for liberatin her chesticles at the end), “License to Drive”, “Weird Science”, the “Meatballs” movies, and one of the greatest movies ever made “The Goonies”. Hell, I even watched “Kramer vs. Kramer” (once again shoutout to gratuitious 80s movies nudity. full frontal in fact). But I digress…

This particular Saturday, there was something a bit different on…

Something like “Moving”

It was a movie starting that funny ass guy from “The Toy”,

“Superman III”,

and “The Mack”.

He starred in it as a hard working father that things never seemed to go right for. I’ma be honest with you though, I’m pullin all this from memory so I couldn’t give you all the particulars but long-story-short, he got transferred to Boise, ID, and his family was not too happy bout that. His family included a dedicated wife, two badass twin sons, and a daughter.

And I when I say daughter I mean, DAMN she was fine. I fell in love instantly. At that very moment at the tender age of 7 I already understood what it meant to be a man. I’d found my wife, the mother of my children, and the designated changer of my Depends™ when I got old. I think it was her eyes. I don’t think I’d ever seen eyes like that before. And lemme tell you she had the sweetest voice and most gorgeous smile you’ve ever seen. Look bottom line:

Shorty was fine as frog’s hair. And before her… nobody was as fine as Denise, but I’ll save that for another time. But yeah shorty was a 10, and 20 years after its original release; having starred in such classics like “Mo’ Money” and “Clueless” I am happy to say my baby is STILL fine as frog’s hair. You ever seen a 42-year-old woman that looked like THIS?:

Shit. I can’t even remember what I was bout to say now… Hell, the picture speaks for itself. I don’t need to say any more.

Just gon’ and listen to this:
