Among the first black comics to make a name playing regular roles, instead of racist stereotypes, Mr Russell should go down in history as the author of these immortal lines:
The opposite of "pro" is "con" This fact is clearly seen If "Progress" means "move forward", Then what does "Congress" mean?

I really miss Nipsy already. I am hoping that one tv station runs some of him. I really miss Nipsy but thank goodness for the other nipsies that have recently been bouncing around here. Yes, thank goodness for this board.
I miss him too but use this board as a form of grieving-counciling(?)-therapy. Usually, I only read it in the mourning. I see so much humor here on your bulletin board that it eases the pain of loosing such a funny man as Nipsy. There's one poster here who really cracks on another and the other one just doesn't get it--doesn't even know he's being the straight. That's funnier-n crap. Really. Where'd you get those guys? Especially the nut case? IS this for real or does the radio station just put THAT on to get ratings here?
