About Lenny[]
As a huckster who is always dressed hip in mink coats or fancy suede or leather jackets with diamonds on his fingers, Lenny has the look of a pimp. He is always seen in various public places, such as pool halls, the outside of police stations, department stores, or even employment offices, trying to hock his "hot" (presumably stolen) merchandise, such as gold chains, watches, jewelry, and even small appliances, such as small toasters, and egg beaters.
He usually wears long red underwear or other "weird" outfits and approaches people with a laid-back rap and a rhyme: "My name is Len-nay, if I ain't got it, there ain't an-nay." He is typically rebuffed by the people he approaches and responds by saying "that's cold" or uses a small brush to "brush off" the negativity. Florida and Willona always seem to become one of his intended customers - they always resist his sales pitch!
