Ever Heard of 'Public Transportation'?

Oy, on the NPR program 'Here And Now', they were baffled by the question: 'Why teens aren't driving as much as they used to?' [link]

Um, maybe because they've got this alternative -- you know, something called 'public transportation' 🙂🙂🙂 -- LeofromLakeview

More Berlin Stories - Stew and 'Passing Strange' on NPR

So I'm listening to NPR's 'All Things Considered' and they start talking about an old pal of mine from my days in Berlin, Stew. The segment is called, "Wondrous 'Strange': Spike Lee Makes A Musical" and it's about how Spike Lee produced a film version of Stew's musical 'Passing Strange' which won a Tony last year (see my write-up).

The musical is about Stew's experiences growing up in L.A. and then going to Amsterdam and Berlin. Since that's when I knew him (we were in the same group called the 'Wonderful Guise'), I look forward to seeing the film. Here's the trailer.
