Three Teachers Mock Black History Month with Rodman, RuPaul and O.J. Black History Month has truly come to a close…and with what three white male teachers would call a “bang.” The school, which is 90% latino, was putting on a Black History Month parade where the children would carry pictures of famous African Americans. Well the bang those teachers were trying to make was in the form of Dennis Rodman (basketball player gone wild), RuPaul (drag queen of all drag queens), and O.J. Simpson (football player done lost his damn mind…acquitted of murdering his wife and her friend, yet still manages to land in jail for armed robbery). It appears that the teachers little jokey joke blew up in their faces. But, the only explosion was their jobs going up in flames. According to the Associated Press, the teachers have been removed from the classroom. But if the NAACP’s Los Angeles chapter president, Leon Jenkins, has anything to say about it, they will be fired. It all happened Friday at Wadsworth Avenue Elementary School in South Los Angeles. One of the parents, Sharon Tinson, told AP she was shocked to see O.J., but she “just laughed.” She has two daughters that attend the school. She also said, “Simpson, like Rodman, was a great athlete before falling from grace. RuPaul simply has an alternative lifestyle, she added.
Macy’s Nordstrom’s Others BUSTED for Selling Used Underwear. By a show of hands, how many of you buy clothes, towels, underwear, etc. that are not packaged and use them without washing them first? Don’t be ashamed, surely you’re not alone. Yesterday, NBC’s Today show exposed a ring of stores that prescribe to allowing customers return used underwear. Well, to be fair, they don’t know if they were used or not. They didn’t take out their black light on them or run them through a lab or anything, but isn’t it scary enough to know that they allow you to return them? NBC was able to get one clerk (who is probably a disgruntled former employee of Victoria’s Secret) to give up the goods on Victoria’s Secret. She went as far as to say they have taken a pair of panties with an “odor” and let them hang up until said smell was gone. YIKES! Now that is the worst of the worst. They were able to prove that stores like Macy’s, Nordstrom’s, The Gap, Express, Victoria’s Secret and others were allowing their customers to return their underwear. Forgive me if I’m wrong, but didn’t stores used to have a policy, a POSTED policy, that all underwear is non-returnable?
Report: Elin Moving Back In with Tiger. RadarOnline.com is reporting that Elin Nordegren will end her three-month break from philandering husband Tiger Woods and has agreed to move back into the house. After going away with Tiger and their two children last week, Elin decided earlier this week to move back into their home in Windermere Fl, the Web site reported. She is currently renting a house about a mile from the property. On Wednesday, Elin and Tiger spent approximately three hours together at the house. They were in the backyard, and a source close to the situation told RadarOnline.com exclusively that at one point Tiger kissed Elin on the cheek three times and they hugged.
Tiger’s Caddy: ‘Of Course I’m Mad At Him’. Add Tiger Woods’ caddy to the long list of people upset with the superstar golfer. In an interview with New Zealand commercial television network TV3, Steve Williams expressed anger and frustration at his boss over the string of adulterous affairs and said he would have exposed Tiger’s secret had he known. “I’m a straight-up sort of person. If I had known something was going on, the whistle would have been blown,” said Williams, adding that he was angry after the revelations emerged, but his role was to be a friend to Woods. “Of course I’m mad at him, why would you not be?” Williams said. “I’m close with his wife and he’s got two lovely children and he’s let them down. …When a guy’s having a tough time, it’s not up to me to beat him with a stick right now. He’s getting enough grilling from everybody else. “Tiger’s one of my closest friends and he needs my support right now and I’d never think of walking away.” The New Zealander said he had not spoken to Woods about his transgressions since it made world headlines in November. “When I talk to him, I don’t talk to him about what’s happened. I talk to him about the future and about what we’re going to try to accomplish and how we’re going to get over it,” Williams said.
If you ever testify in court, you might wish you could have been as sharp as this policeman. He was being cross-examined by a defense attorney during a felony trial. The lawyer was trying to undermine the police officer’s credibility…
Q: ‘Officer — did you see my client fleeing the scene?’
A: ‘No sir. But I subsequently observed a person matching the description of the offender, running several blocks away.’
Q: ‘Officer — who provided this description?’
A: ‘The officer who responded to the scene.’
Q: ‘A fellow officer provided the description of this so-called offender. Do you trust your fellow officers?’
A: ‘Yes, sir. With my life.’
Q: ‘With your life? Let me ask you this then officer. Do you have a room where you change your clothes in preparation for your daily duties?’
A: ‘Yes sir, we do!’
Q: ‘And do you have a locker in the room?’
A: ‘Yes sir, I do.’
Q: ‘And do you have a lock on your locker?’
A: ‘Yes sir.’
Q: ‘Now why is it, officer, if you trust your fellow officers with your life, you find it necessary to lock your locker in a room you share with these same officers?’
A: ‘You see, sir — we share the building with the court complex, and sometimes lawyers have been known to walk through that room.’
The courtroom EXPLODED with laughter, and a prompt recess was called. The officer on the stand has been nominated for this year’s ‘Best Comeback’ line — and we think he’ll win.

‘America’s Most Wanted’ Taps Obama For 1000th Broadcast. President Barack Obama will make an appearance on the 1,000th episode of the long-running criminal-profile series “America’s Most Wanted,” airing Saturday at 9 p.m. EST on Fox. During the White House interview, host John Walsh talks with the Commander In Chief about the milestone episode, the show’s impact over its 22 years and his administration’s anti-crime initiatives, including an emphasis on white-collar crime. Obama also promises to do everything in his power to ensure that Congress fully funds The Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act of 2006 – named after Walsh’s six-year-old son who was abducted and murdered in 1981. The act established the National Sex Offender Registry. According to Fox, “America’s Most Wanted” has helped capture more than 1,100 fugitives to date and reunited 43 missing children with their families.
