Nobel laureate rips Bush, his "bleating little lamb"

Overheard: He's thinking of our singles' nights
Filed under: Overheard
Outside the Lagoon Cinema, 9:35 p.m. Saturday. The ticket line stretches around the block, thanks in part to an exclusive screening of Sarah Silverman: Jesus is Magic. Moviegoers unaware of the Get Real Film Festival look confused.
Guy looking at a Get Real poster: "I wonder what they show at a City Pages film festival. People peeing on each other?"

Overheard: Dark comedy goes meta
Filed under: Overheard
Couple in a video store looking at dark Christian comedy "Saved!"
She: (hesitant) Mmm, it's got Macaulay Culkin in it.
He: Yeah, he's in a wheelchair.
She: Ooh, funny!

Son of Fela
Filed under: Overheard
Interesting Femi Kuti piece on NPR today. Listen here. Sample quote:
There are so many, hundreds of thousands, of young boys in Africa now. No shoes, no clothes, no money. They don't eat. They live under the bridge. Lagos is disgusting. And they are growing. In five years these boys that are 5 will be 10. Those that are 10 will be 15. 15 will be 20. So when you understand that kind of mathematics it's really scary.

Why Pride is Still Necessary
Filed under: Overheard
Yesterday B96 was putting on some sort of contest in which a male listener was asked to decide whether to walk in drag in this weekend?s Pride march or be zapped by a police taser. Naturally, he chose the stun gun.
