Yea, I might think it sounds alright every now and then. But when I have a kid I damn sure don't want him telling me about his weekend -going on and on about how he coked bitches out, split a few niggas wigs all while dumping off a kilo.

Slight hijack...I saw Run DMC a couple of summers ago at one of their last shows together (they were opening for Aerosmith), and they were absolutely awesome. It was one of the best shows I've seen.
The crazy thing was that most of the audience at that point (it was early) was much younger, and I heard people around me saying "Who are these guys?"
