>>> Did anybody get a load of Dude (Michael Nutter for our new readers out there) holding his own with Michael Bloomberg at the Phils-Mets game yesterday? And what the sam-hill is up with Nutter not enjoying a large, watery domestic beer at the game? This gives us pause. This whole Hillary thing, we think, has Dude way off his game. Nevertheless, lesson learned: Put Dude in close proximity to Bloomberg and suddenly Dude looks like Greatest Living American Politician. Awesome. [The700Level]
>>> Somewhere, there is a Confucious-esque lesson here: Man who is extremely lukewarm as alt-weekly editor is white hot as comic book guy. Translation: Ex-City Paper ed Duane Swierczynski is in charge of another comic: The Iron Fist (pictured). And no, it’s not THAT kind of comic. We don’t think. [Marvel]
>>> And lastly, nurdz, reserve May 1 on your iCal for “This American Life LIVE!” — a multi-city movie theater simulcast/live production of the popular Ira Glass/NPR show — which will hit seven theaters locally. [FathomEvents]
