QUIPPETS, QUOTES, AND THINGS I HEARD OR MADE UP OR HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY ABOUT:

~ AQUAPHOR HEALING OINTMENT FOR THESE RADIATION BURNS - man this stuff works great! $18 for a tub of it so it better...then I read the ingredients and realized this company made out of people that clearly don’t know any Black Families on they block because I don’t care whatever else you add to it, it’s “active ingredient” is 40% Petrolatum which my people called VASELINE which you can get generically for like 3 dollars a tub. Vaseline been $3 a tub since time immemorial in Black Families. We rubbed it on every thing everyday - -you could get arrested in the Black community for being “ashy” at the elbow and the knee, so no. No. No Aquaphor.
Can I get an amen from all 5 - 6 of my Black Folk Music Fans?

~ “Explain it to me like I’m a Golden Retriever” is what I say when I should be understanding something simple but I’m not.

~ NEW STUDENT: “It’s not like I’m singing on the radio - I’m just singing in the shower” . ME: “Well, you might as well have good technique for both...”

~ WITCH STUDENT? I have a student who is a Witch. Sure, my teaching is open and accepting. She says to me after an hour of rehearsing some ritual chants: “Now you’re gonna have some pagan stuff in your Swiss Army knife of belief...”

~ "Remember, the bottom half of every unicorn is still a horse."
