For clarification, the question was regarding Chinese history, not the Wu-Tang Clan. :lol:

Give the kid some credit; he knew you weren't asking about hip-hop.

Nice, Sun. Just remember, stepping in Cao Pi from a Cao Cao is not the Wei.

While you may know that Prince died, you may or may not know that Chyna (Joanie Lauer(sic?)). While I was not a fan of either per se, it still kinda hits me. Also, I'm kinda worried about the rule of threes, especially since last time we lost David Bowie after losing Lemmy and Alan Rickman.

Also, am I the only one that remembers that we know that Rita Repulsa's design in next year's Power Rangers reboot is gonna look more like Poison Ivy if she was auditioning for the next Mortal Kombat game?

And for some good news, here's drag queen Phi Phi O'Hara, on point AF as Inspector Gadget:

This is Phi Phi's 111th day of Phi Phi's 365 Days of Drag, and the fourth of Phi Phi's '80s Cartoon period (Phi Phi also did Jem, April O'Neill and Strawberry Shortcake).

:P : eBay is going to start enforcing a required 30 day return period starting May 1st for Top Rated Sellers. No biggie since I haven't had any returns since I swapped over to Buy It Now Listings(alot less buyers remorse that way) so I'll roll with it unless people start abusing it. I'm still not a big fan of being required to double my return window or eat an extra 2% in fees on my sales and shipping(still think being charged fees on shipping is BS there were better ways to deal with the guys abusing that) :P. At least they never enforced that 3 month return window they were pushing about around the Holidays so maybe this will get killed off as well, but I kind of doubt it.

:D : Yesterday was payday which is always a good thing.

:) : Decided to run around to the flee markets a bit today since I was off.

:P : They were almost a complete bust aside from a fatty PS2 that I got loose for $5( but which may have a dead laser) the most exciting thing I walked away with was this :lol: .

Luckily the pawnshops and game stop along the way made the trip worth while but it seems like all 4 of the flea markets in my area are completely fished out now thanks to the ridiculous amount of guys opening up gaming stalls. Eventually they all fail but it seems like there are more newbies then ever thinking they can strike it rich charging 2-3x market prices on everything they can get their hands on :P.
