porgies are very popular among blacks and puerto ricans.
when ever we wanna find porgies out in city island, my buddy and i follow the puerto ricans on skiff outta jack's bait shop.
Them modefoques pile up 8 in a fokin skiff built for 3 and head straight to where the porgies are.

I'll get there, when I get there!

we have such a good time out fishing with our marine radio.
the gumbas are goofing at blacks by requesting a porgy report with a heavy black accent
"where them pogy be AT?"
Then i pick up the radio and start lookin for my gumba buddy
"hey joey MARICONni, what's your 20?"

I'll get there, when I get there!

The link below contains the speech by El Presidente. His energy joke (oil, cocaine, coffee) must have gone over like a lead balloon.

http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2008/07/20080722-1.html

---------------------------

THE PRESIDENT: Thank you. Siéntese. Gracias. Buenos dias. Bienvenidos a la Casa Blanca. (Applause.) I am pleased to welcome you to the gathering of the 198th anniversary of Colombia's independence, which was celebrated last Sunday in grand style. Colombia and the United States have a long history of close ties. As many of you may know, Colombia supports [sic] America's primary source of energy -- a resource that many Americans use, and we thank you for your coffee. (Laughter.)
-----------------------

The transcriber should have crossed out (Laughter) and inserted (polite, strained laughter)

I love Jorge Celedón and Jimmy Zambrano. My husband called me yesterday while they were showing it on CNN but I was at work and said it was really nice. Great picture too, too bad Bush is in. =\

I guess I'm going to have to order porgy when I go back to barranquilla, mmm I thought the most popular fishes in "La Arenosa" are mojarra, bocachico, lisa, lebranche and pargo rojo. :>)
Thanks for for the videos.

I don't see what cocaine had to do with the joke at all. I didn't see it as an inferred punchline, it seems more like that's what's on your mind instead.
