NYC Loves U2 As Much As I Do

In observation of U2’s incredibly busy week, which includes the release of a new album and five consecutive shows on the Late Show with David Letterman, NYC mayor Michael Bloomberg honored the Irish band by temporarily renaming a section of 53rd Street U2 Way.

I’ll spare you a joke or ten about the streets having a name (or is it, the streets have no name?). But really, I can’t believe how much people will bend over backwards to be nice to Bono. I mean, George W. Bush changed his whole outlook on the African AIDS crisis after meeting with Bono and discussing it. And now this? What can’t this guy do?
