Seeing as they're both in prison, how would you differentiate between a wannabe gang-banger and a true gangsta? The crime they committed? Their cred/rep?

I agree with the person down below who says this response is a little disingenuous, but for different reasons.
I'm always curious why, when comparing an aspect of their culture, pop, commercial or political, Americans have a tendency to use the worst examples as a basis of comparison. As an example, whenever the issue of curtailing civil liberties in the name of national security arises, it's always "Look at China! or Look at Russia!".
Of course the Soviet bloc and many, many other developing and 3rd world countries are rife with corruption. Just because that's the lowest common denominator doesn't mean that corruption in US politics is "meh". Why not compare the American system to other well-established, fully developed, democratic countries? The G7 and smaller Western European nations would be a start.

Hey Aasif,
HUGE fan of yours. One of my favourite things I've seen you do is your bit in season 8 of Curb Your Enthisiasm during the elevator scene with LD. What was it like to be on that show? I know much of the show is improv - was that scene improv or was it fully scripted?

What are the health concerns associated with being so tall? Do doctors estimate that your life expectancy is likely shorter than that of a man of average height?
