Your Love’s Coming Down Like Rain

Wednesday, June 6th, 2007

Being the fabulous and dedicated Band in a Bubble blogger that I am, I raced down to Pier 54 immediately after receiving word that the Bubble’s entire glass front collapsed during the torrential downpour two nights ago.

Have you seen the new YouTube video of the NYC breakdancer accidentally kicking a toddler, sending the kid into sort of a backflip across a subway platform? I’m NOT posting it here because it’s disturbing.

Looks like Michael Richards, also known as Kramer from “Seinfeld,” has some explaining to do. During a weekend gig at the Laugh Factory in Los Angeles, the actor lashed out at several audience members, screaming racial slurs and lynching references. See the clip here.
As an avid stand-up comedy fan, I’ve witnessed countless comics at clubs […]
