Don't Fake The Funk

Convention? What Convention?

So everyone and their mama has been complaining about the Republican National Convention but I don't get what all the hullabaloo is about. (Great word, 'hullabaloo' -- right?) I've seen some traffic cones set up on Broadway, and maybe a few more cops than I normally would, but otherwise nothing has been out of the ordinary. I haven't even seen any republicans. Are they even real?

"Wesley, what about the republicans?"
"Rodents of unusual size? I don't think they even exist."

Free prize to whoever (whomever?) can figure out where that (slightly edited) dialogue is from.

I did see some people selling John Kerry flip-flops, though. That was pretty ingenious. At least I think it was ingenious. I don't follow politics closely enough to know whether or not John Kerry actually wears flip-flops.

Here's an odd photo that Leah and I saw today in the window of a salon on Roosevelt Ave. Yeah dude. It really does say "armpit whitening."
