@raysanni: True, but let's not forget the other people awarded such a holiday like the asshole Christopher Columbus himself, he who is associated with rape, murder, robbery and syphilis.
@bess marvin, girl detective: Yeah, but back in those times, it was more acceptable. By the way, does syphilis really belong in that list of charges? I know it was deadly back then, but I'm pretty sure CC didn't want to contract it.
The Notorious BIG, Christopher Wallace, can have a national holiday when everyone stays home from work and thinks about him. At the same time they need to make a national holiday for 2Pac, Tupac Amaru Shakur, also. Then Malcom, Malik el Shabazz. Beloved ones.
@krismry: Darned if I want to think about Biggie even on a day off. I do think Tupac's life and what he left behind bares some reflection. As for Biggie, he was a bright guy but his legacy is narrowing with the years. Oddly enough one of the most lasting things he gave us is Lil' Kim. Hey, thanks.
eww - Coogi sweaters have always reminded me of pond scum, or strains of DNA (depending on the colorway), and other naturally occurring, yet still disturbing, patterns.

Another B.I.G. legacy is Faith Evans, who is a far more talented singer than Lil' Kim could ever hope to be, but never as famous.
