It has been reported that while vacationing with family and friends in Honolulu he experienced chest pains and was taken by ambulance to the Queens Medical Center in serious condition. He is now resting comfortably and seemingly doing just fine. He has made a fortune bashing Democrats, Liberals, main stream media, Hollywood "types", gays, women's groups, the education system, Chelsey, Bill and Hillery Clinton, Valery Plame/Joe Wilson and one of the most agregious attacks I have ever seen was perpetrated on actor Michael J Fox for displaying the effects of the Parkinsons disease while testifying before a Congressional Committee.

Rumors are flying that Will "Fresh Prince" Smith may join old partner DJ Jazzy Jeff on Eve's Pierpont stage tonight. Sure, might as well throw in Kid N' Play and Kriss Kross while you're at it.
For those of us that braved the cold, Day 1 of Eve was well worth the frigidness.--- Things got off to a slow start, with barely a family in attendance for Future of the Ghost, who played furiously despite cold fingers.
