THE IMPROMPTU GRUDGE

Wasn’t going to post today;feeling kinda blah.Then I got a card from a lady on my paper route who’d asked me last year to leave any extra copies of the Sunday paper if I ever got any,since she is a couponer and uses the extra to buy goods for the local food pantry.After a year,she said that my help really made a difference for those less fortunate than we are.Funny how the simplest things can make you feel really good.I promise all good stuff today.My picture files are bursting,so I’ll try to make you smile a little.

PSA from CTH: STOP EATING! STOP DRINKING! STOP CHEWING GUM! IF YOU’VE GOT A TOOTHPICK IN YOUR MOUTH, REMOVE IT. [still coughing up cereal inhaled during Pete Graphic Laff Fest below.]

Kudos to ESPN

ESPN has suspended commentator Rob Parker for comments he made regarding Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III last Thursday on ESPN’s “First Take.”

Parker questioned Griffin’s “blackness.”

“Is he a brother or a cornball brother? … We all know he has a white fiancée. There was all this talk about he’s a Republican, which, there’s no information [about that] at all. I’m just trying to dig deeper as to why he has an issue.

DeMaurice Smith, executive director of the NFL Players Association, told The Washington Post in an email Friday:

“Robert can certainly take care of himself. Nonetheless … people need to be held accountable for the offensive things that they say.”
