Versus
Proof, if any is needed, that I live in southern California, not Canada:

This morning I was listening to Depeche Mode's"Sister of Night".

Initially I was thinking about the falsity of the statement "Martin writes it and Dave sings it." In most cases this is simply untrue. Dave and Martin often band together in two-part harmony, and this is what gives Depeche Mode songs their (in the words of George Harrison) extra texture.

As I thought about the recent Gore vs. Gahan debates of the last several years, my mind wandered to the hot topic down here - namely, the Shaq vs. Kobe debates of the last several years.

Is Shaq a spoiled child who takes his ball from the playground when he doesn't get his own way? Is Kobe a spoiled child who seeks to control everything and anything in the Lakers organization?

Time will tell...

This soap opera continues. As of today (Tuesday 6/22/2004) I have heard two conflicting stories - one stating that Shaq again demanded a trade on Monday, another stating that there has been no contact between the Lakers and Shaq's people.

In which we enter the alternative universe in which police always believe dreadlocked individuals

I previously raised the question about whether Interference Inc. was prompt in letting the authorities know that the so-called bombs in Boston weren't bombs. Now a new question has been raised - was Peter Berdovsky prompt in letting Interference Inc. know that the guerilla marketing campaign had gone sour? And should he have informed the on-scene officers that there was nothing to worry about? The issue was raised because Berdovsky videotaped police at a (supposed) bomb site. This is what the Associated Press said : One of the men criminally charged after placing blinking cartoon advertisements around the city videotaped a police bomb squad removing one of the electronic devices, but did not tell the officers the object was harmless. Surveillance cameras caught 27-year-old Peter Berdovsky videotaping officers removing what they thought was a possible bomb. But Walter Prince , Berdovsky's new layer (replacing semi-guardian Michael Rich ), puts a different spin on the whol...
