David Simon Profile

My brother pointed me to this profile in The New Yorker magazine of David Simon, the creator of The Wire. It's a long juicy read and I have only finished the first page. I thought before I defer reading it to a more suitable time and eventually forget about it, where better to 'bookmark' it than my very own blog?

May I request to lead-cast you both in my new movie titled "And the Queen speaks pidgin English!"?

It wont be that difficult to script you Nkem, as a successful indigenous "nollywood" promoter, on the tail of a delectable babe to make her accept a role in a home-video project. The challenging part I reckon might be getting you to play your part in the movie, in this delectable dame's language (Queen's English)? It gets more interesting when your perseverance drags her into WRITING pidgin, as the Queen makes effort to communicate her views to you in our 'indigenous' language?

"And the Queen speaks pidgin English!" should generate such public brouhaha that Nkem by 'anonymous' (in English-unanimous) decision, gets a co-starring Emmy for featuring alongside Ore in the movie!

... No be ma fault, I'm absolutely intrigued!!! LOL!
