Since I mentioned it once before, I feel it is my responsibility to keep you up to date on the Peter Buck trial. It seems that, along with damaging British Airways crockery, the R.E.M. guitarist also stands accused of other offenses, including “cover[ing] himself with yogurt” and “mist[aking] a hostess trolley for a CD player,” all while drunkenly crossing the Atlantic. I bet Osama’s linked up in this somehow.
