A lot of comedians say that having a sense of humor got them out of fights with bullies when they were kids. Not D.L. Hughley. "I think it got me into more scrapes," he says. "My mother said I always had to get the last word in. My mouth always got me in trouble." Now that the writers' strike has ended in Hollywood, D.L. is waiting to see what his next project is going to be. It will either be another sitcom or another talk show, but he's not in a particular hurry to find out, as he enjoys doing standup. "To me that's the most fun. It's always cool to see something and go out on the road and talk about it." For Hughley, that can be anything from current events to his family. "My children (three boys aged 16-21) now think that I don't know anything," he states. "Like I got to be 43 years old and don't know anything. My son wants to wear his hood over his head and his hands in his pockets. I tell him you can't walk around like that and expect nothing to happen. He walked into the jewelry store and about three security guards pulled guns on him. He thinks I don't know anything."
