The gang sign he's flashing has been identified as representing an LA-based gang called "The Original Gaiasters."

As I'm not funny anymore, I'll recycle this old Top Ten with a minor change or two.

Top Ten Signs Al Gore Invented Hip Hop

10. Is on record as a staunch opponent of "frontin'" oil corporations, but supports small family-owned businesses which are "just tryin' to represent"

9. Frequently concludes anti-Bush speeches by dropping microphone and striking "down" pose while exposing his "Senator Thug" belly-tatoo

8. Unsuccessfully lobbied to replace Senate voting system so that "Aye" would become "Fo' shizzle," "Nay" would become "How my ass taste?"

7. Pro-"jimmies," but favors controlling "nines"

6. Ron Brown reported to have "dissed" Al Gore shortly before his untimely death

5. Has dedicated his public life to helping working American families get the tools and assistance they need for raising their "shorties"

4. When sipping white wine spritzers at Nantucket environmental fundraisers, always takes a gulp "for me," then pours some into the ground "for my caribouzzles"

3. Wrote and co-sponsored SR 371, nicknamed the "Truth and Quality in Dropping Rhymes Bill;" bill had laudable goal of finally outlawing "suckah MC's who gots no skills," but was defeated by a posse of playah-hatin' Southern Republicans on a voice-vote

2. Known for always "keeping his pimp-hand strong" when negotiating in conference

...and the Number One Sign Al Gore Invented Hip Hop...

1. At his Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech, Gore gave much love to the Creator, all peace to JC, props to his producers No-Bonze and Jellythang from Bad Boy Entertainment, and a special "shout-out" to his agent Myron G. Herskovitz
