Sometimes I wonder about the universe. For example, today, while browsing this news, I found this:
Rapper Coolio, who topped the pop charts in 1995 with the Grammy-winning tune "Gangsta's Paradise," will star in a reality TV show for women's cable network Oxygen.
Really? Let us dissect this further.
This show will be called Coolio & The Gang and will star Coolio himself raising six teenage children. Who knew having many, many children could be so profitable! Amusingly, it says it will show Coolio raising the kids "while maintaining his rap career". Sorry Coolio, you already struck out on that count!
So, for a grey Tuesday (in Davis, CA), here is "1,2,3,4 (Sumthin' New)"

My favorite fact about Coolio (don't make me choose!) is he that he used to be high out of his mind when he worked as an airport screener.

To prevent Betsy from having a heart attack, Coolio's last hit was 12 not 17 years ago. Apparently I can't do math this morning.

#2 alone induced nausea and vomiting for me. 17 years! Ack!
Good thing Erik just straightened out his figures. He tells me it really has only been twelve years. I'm with ya Erik: Math is hard!
