Two Grasshopper Reads.......

Don't Blame It on Rio: The Real Deal Behind Why Men Go to 

Brazil for Sex

“Black women were once at the center 

of black men’s lives, as wives, mothers, 

lovers and partners… However, in this

generation, black women have become 

somewhat of a nuisance, a burden, and 

perhaps even a pariah in black men’s 

lives…

For the first time ever, large and growing 

numbers of black men have the option to 

ask what they perceive to be a legitimate 

question: Are black women necessary?

This book is not only going to deal with 

the question ‘Are black women necessary?’ It will also take a look 

at the broader question of why black men are looking for something 

they think is outside black women.”
—Excerpted from the Introduction (pages 2-8)

Similarities between 9-5 and Drug Dealin

Have you ever found yourself balancing the pro's and con's of working a 9 to 5?

Have you ever found yourself thinking about getting into the drug game in order to make more money?

Both of these decisions require a lot of sacrifice, hard work and discipline.  One is not more glamourous than the other and to be totally honest it takes a lot of courage to do both. While sitting down and comtemplating this over dinner we came up with this list of similarities between the dope game and the 9 to 5 game. Enjoy!!!

1. Need to be educated

2. Motivated to make money

3. The early bird gets the worm

4. Have great time management skills

5. It takes years to develop into a senior position

6. Discipline is required

7. Experience leads to a promotion

8. Vacation time is crucial

16. More customers means more money

17. Strategic in your actions

18. Live by a code, unwritten rules

19. Maintain your reputation

Now here are the differences....

2. Circulation of Money

3. You are your own boss vs. taking orders

4. Freedom

5. Risk of going to jail

6. Greater responsibility

7. Limitless potential in the drug game

8. Lonely life

9. Fear of being caught

10. Untrusting, paranoid

11. Uncertain future

12. Stressful on family

13. Social Outcast when you sell drugs

14. Tax free vs Taxable Income

15. Lifestyle 

16. One is glamorized the other is not

Just a question.

WOLVERINE GAY!???? Say it aint so.

"Hugh Jackman responded to persistent rumors that he's gay -- maybe this has something to do with that? -- to Parade magazine this Sunday.
"I'd be happy to go and deny it, because I'm not. But by denying it, I'm saying there is something shameful about it, and there isn't anything shameful," Jackman says.
"The questions about sexuality I find more here in America than anywhere else, because it's a big hang-up and defines what people think about themselves and others. It's not a big issue in Australia."
Jackman is married fellow Aussie Deborra-Lee Furness, and the couple has adopted two children, Ava and Oscar."

PHEW ... we at twograsshoppers were afraid we'd have to rip through him like he does through the innocent buses, trucks and cars in the new movie.

Check out the trailer.

Why I love Dave Chapelle

Not only is Dave Chapelle funny as hell he is very intelligent as well. When I first say this interview on Opera (yes I do watch it when she is interviewing someone of interest) I was appalled.  Why is it that every funny black comedian has to wear a dress? Tune in to see why.

America's Most Wanted Revue: WARNING GRAPHIC PICS

The experience was different to say the least.  The male dancers

were fine as hell.  Sunfire's opening line "Ladies all you need from 

a man in 2009, is for him to eat your pussy and pay your 

mutherfuckin' bills" definitely started the show off right.  My 

personal favourites - Luscious, Phyness and Tank.  The music 

was good and the host for the night, Trixx, was funny as hell.  The 

show itself was like nothing I've ever seen before.  I tell you, as soon 

as women jumped on stage, it was like they were possessed; ready 

to spread their legs, shaking their asses and ready to lose complete 

control over these dancers.  I guess who could blame them?  Those 

men were doing some acrobatics that I didn't think were possible.  

And can you say stuffed?  Their packages looked a bit embellished 

to me.  But then again, I didn't grab a feel so I wouldn't know.  I 

guess you have to feel it to believe it!  All in all, the show was great.  

It was an experience like no other.  I can't say I would strike up 

enough courage to sit in the hot seat though (and yes, their tongues 

were really going at it on those women, it wasn't just your eyes).  

If you haven't experienced AMW, I encourage you to do so cause 

the strip clubs over here don't suffice.

So fellas, if you realized that your girl was extra horny Saturday 

night, you know where she was.
