 Bozell's Entertainment Column -- 07/20/1999 -- Chris Rock: Friend of Bill's Sex Life
Rock, who was raised in a two-parent home, would like us to believe he's firm on the importance of family and, specifically, of parents devoting themselves to their offspring.
Rock wonders why, in that case, she's out so late, and says to her, "Go take care of them kids 'fore they rob me in ten years." So far, so good.
Rock's essential problem is that while he praises the family, he has no idea what that means.

Rock and George Carlin exchange hilarious conversation over the beginnings of stand-up comedy, especially Carlin's truly shocking humor as he was attempting to make his mark amongst the one-liner, Jackie Masons of the world.
One of the best sketches features Rock trying to get people in the mostly white enclave of Howard Beach to sign a petition to create a Tupac Shakur Boulevard through town; people's reactions are genuinely funny, especially during one moment when Rock follows a woman down the street singing "California Love" completely off-key.
