It is what it is.

I got a AppleNews alert on my walk this evening. My wife is crushed. I'm a little shocked.

I wonder how many of us are older than he.

Most of us, I would wager. I'm a couple years younger than he was, but I know most folks here are older than me.

Drug overdose?

Heart attack/stroke due to his chronic drug abuse?

RIP Coolio.

To this day, Coolio is the only rapper I actually like, and the only rap that I paid money to buy.
