I said it before and I'll say it again: I don't see rap music and Lotus complementing each other. Drift cars -maybe and low riders -definitely, but not Lotus -which is far closer to symphony than to rap IMHO.

Infact, HANG ON!

"Quarter Life" ? Being 25, do they assume they will live until 100?

According to US actuarial tables, at 25, and male, they each have a life expectancy of 51.78 years
http://www.ssa.gov/o...S/table4c6.html
So, this is actually, a 25/76.78 = 32.56%, or a

"Third of my life crisis"

But, if they make an more music, they may be lucky to get to 26!

For those of you interested, here are the UK tables http://www.ons.gov.u...n=tcm:77-223324 (first XLS file lets you get your life expectancy and chance of dying each year!!)

So, I have lived more days than I have left.... :ermm:

Well, having viewed this and not really enjoyed it, I wondered if I could find a female version of the worst song/vid of all time?

Please watch with care........enjoy!
