Rock n' Roll Doggie Band-aid
That bizarre quote comes from a story in today's Toronto Star, about a lawsuit currently under way. A nanny is suing her former employer, The Cranberries' Dolores O'Riordan and her husband (I won't go into the details, but they don't sound like nice people). The above remark was shouted at the nanny by Dolores' husband, as the nanny cowered behind a locked door. Apparently, he was trying to belittle her. The article says the nanny had worked for Larry Jr. before being employed by O'Riordan.
This has been a busy Bono-related news week in the Toronto press. In additon to this, there was the article cited in the news forum. As well, a few days ago, Bono was on the FRONT PAGE of the National Post. When I saw that paper on my front step, with Bono's face looking up at me, I almost fell over. I thought something awful must have happened. Actually, it was just a wry little piece comparing Bono with Ralph Klein, who was doing the speech honours at the Conservative Convention. (Bono did the same at last fall's Liberal Convention.) Some of the similarities noted: Both wear tinted glasses, both are into debt reduction, both are reformed smokers and hard drinkers, etc. A bit lame, but still, it was the FRONT PAGE of a major daily. That's alright.
