Chilton in NoLa

The New Orleans Times-Picayune has a really fascinating (and quite long) article on Alex Chilton's post-Big Star life in New Orleans today. Among the stand out quotes:
“Walker, Texas Ranger” and “Touched by an Angel” fascinated him; he taught himself the “Walker” theme music on guitar.

Do you know anything about math homework? I need to know what 33 and 1/3 percent of 12 is and I can't figure it out! It's ridiculous!

Multiply 12 by .333 and you get 3.999.

Which is almost the right answer. 4 is correct.
(and yes, 1 = .999...)
