Lonnie Johnson must be having a fit...


Any of us growing up in the 90's know about the super soaker. My mom is cheap as crap so I never got above the SS250 but that's kool because the SS1000 was a leaking POS anyway. Anyway, if any of you aren't up to snuff on your black history like me lol.
You wouldn't know that a black man created the SS in 1988 under the original name of the "Power Drencher"... This invention of Lonnie Johnson ushered in a new era of power water squirters. It wasn't until 1991 that the name "super soaker" was used. This poor black man never realized that some clown would coin the term "super soak these hoes"... Poor Lonnie Johnson. On one hand you've brought us all laughter, joy and tons of soaking fun. On the other hand, you are responsible for adolescent females everywhere getting "super soaked".

That is my contribution to black history month, even though it is April.


While on the topic of hoes, I noticed that Rutgers lost yesterday and that their hair did not look nappy.

Impending blogs:

- Pacman Jones makes it rain on poor people


I would love to change the world, but they won't give me the source code.

My mom was cheap with the super soakers too :( Do they still sell those? And why is your tribute to Black History Month so damn late, lol.
