I know him! OK, not really. Taylor Mali was a grad student at K-State when I was a freshman and someone I crushed on, er, greatly admired from afar. He taught the honors comp class next to mine and sometimes we would smile and say hey in the hallway. He also acted in several of the university theater productions and had a way of making his presence known no matter what setting he was in.

Where was that? Who was he speaking to?

And was that Mos Def who introduced him?

Oh and by the way, not that you care, like you know, but as an actor, Mos Def is da bomb.

How many Mos Def albums do you own, Shrode?

5. Shrode - 05/14/2008 8:59 am CDT

Uh...that would be NONE.

This is why I was careful to say "as an actor", I know NOTHING about his music.

Why do you ask? :)

6. Shrode - 05/14/2008 9:02 am CDT

Oh, man. Just googled him and found this. Whoops. :ggeek:

Just watched a youtube clip of MosDef.

YIPES.

Makes me want to take back what I said above. But oh well, I liked him in "Italian Job" and "16 Blocks". but his politics are to the left of Alec Baldwin...

If you think this is good, look up a piece of his called "Seventh Grade Viking Warrior." You will freak out.
