Racist mayor flees from giant pile of tacos.
An update for those following the saga of East Haven Mayor Joseph Maturo, America’s dumbest mayor.
Raw Story:
When recently asked about his support for Latino rights, the mayor of East Haven, Connecticut said that he “might have some tacos” for dinner. Little did he know, a local group of activists would be happy to take him up on that.
Days later, 500 tacos showed up at Mayor Joseph Maturo, Jr.’s office, courtesy of local activists with The Campaign to Reform Immigration for America. Sadly, he wasn’t there to receive them.
“When we delivered the tacos to [the] Mayor, he ran out the back door to avoid us,” the activists wrote on their blog, citing a report in local media. He allegedly had an important meeting to attend.
The group put out a call for concerned citizens to text them. For every text reading “taco” they received, they’d send a taco for the mayor. They got over 3,500 texts — which is a lot of tacos.
They didn’t go to waste though. According to the report, “While the group said they were disappointed that the mayor was not present to receive his tacos, they left one for him and donated the rest to feed the homeless.”
Making the best of a bad situation and turning a negative into a positive. Mayor Joe could learn something from his critics.
And weren’t we just talking about dumb racist conservatives? I believe we were.
Sending elected officials protest tacos is quite a statement.](http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyh18792pY1qfengno1_400.jpg)

First Look of the Day: Thirteen years later, Cowboy Bebop director Shinichirō Watanabe is reuniting with Cowboy Bebop composer Yoko Kanno for a brand new anime about “a naive boy and a scruffy boy [who] share a passion for jazz in a provincial town in the late 1960s.”
Based on Yūki Kodama’s same-named manga series, Sakamichi no Apollon is set to air this April on Fuji TV’s anime programming block, Noitamina.

The Osmonds’ “Crazy Horses” slowed from 45 to 33 rpm by Dangerous Minds’ Marc Campbell. Surprisingly excellent, but much much less disturbing than the original, as I suppose should be expected.

Actual Things The Woman Behind Me Said During a Saturday Afternoon Showing of “The Descendants”
“George Clooney really is nice looking.”
“Is it hard to play the ukulele?”
“Language!”
“I guess with her mom in the hospital, no one can brush Scotti’s hair.”
“He has a lot of shoes for a Hawaiian. Those look like loafers.”
“He runs like a doofus.”
“If my daughter talked to me like that, I’d have two family members in the hospital”
“Is Scotti a nickname?”
“That boy has a Joker mouth.”
“He was probably always really nice looking.”
“THAT’S A PLOT POINT.”
“Which Bridges is that?”
“Do they call them Hawaiian shirts in Hawaii? Or just ‘shirts’?”
“He must not be a very good lawyer.”
“I don’t like to run on the sand.”
“Now he’s barefoot.”
“Do those flowers dissolve in the water?”
[Ten straight minutes of body-wracking sobs]
“Are we ever going to find out Scotti’s real name?”
[Another five minutes when she’s openly weeping and saying “Oh Lord, Oh Lord, Oh Lord”]
“He can really do sad.”
[Continued sniffles]
“That might have been better than The Help”
