Interesting group today.


For one, you have a haircut who was governor of his home state from the ages of thirty-four to thirty-eight. When you’re a hack Republican politician who was a one-term governor when he was that young, how do you follow such an act?


Then, over here, you have a minor Danish noblewoman; one who, by virtue of being a direct descendant of Queen Victoria, is currently the 231st in line (give or take) to assume the British throne. Now, that would be a fine plot for a thriller: minor noblewoman conspires to incinerate all 230 people in line in front of her to wrest the crown from Queen Elizabeth.


Also, I like the tale of the guy who has made it his life’s work to chronicle the work-in-progress of the indie film luminary. Ah, the wonders of the Canadian state arts subsidy.


But the winner is the sparkplug from A Tribe Called Quest, so named for being just barely five feet in height.
