After some nice breaks for dental surgery and courthouse fires, rapper Lil Wayne will be turning himself in on Monday. The Post reports that he was due back in court today, but the courthouse is still closed due to the fire. But Weezy doesn't seem too fazed. In the latest MTV video from the series "Nino Brown: Road to Rikers," Lil Wayne said "I'm ready. I'm all smiles...They can only take my time." He was then informed that his court appearance had been postponed. Lil Wayne was arrested after pleading guilty to "attempted" gun possession charges, and is expected to spend most of 2010 at Rikers. That is, unless he needs more dental surgery. Or there's a coyote attack. Or a manhole explodes somewhere.
