Tribute to Maya Angelou, The Phenomenal Woman

Actor Columbus Short is in some serious mess and it only seems to be getting worse. Not only was he presented with a restraining order from his wife, but the judge has now ordered Short to move out of his Chatsworth, California home. Photo Courtesy of IMBD.com According to TMZ , the judge gave Columbus Short 2 hours to get all of his belongings and get the hell out! I guess Ms. Pope is somewhere getting ready for her new baby, which should be due any day now ! I've followed Columbus Short since his film debut in " You Got Served ," so I'm anxious to see how this real life drama ends.
