Time magazine call Bob Geldof and Richard Curtis the heroes of the year


Bob Geldof, top, Richard Curtis

harry borden for time Activists Dynamic Duo United in outrage, Bob Geldof and Richard Curtis organized the Live 8 concerts to get the world to heed their calls for action on African poverty

If Bob Geldof were a hero in the marvel Comics mold, his name would almost certainly be Profanity Man. In a single sentence, Geldof can use his favorite expletive in noun, verb and adjective form, obliterating the rules of grammar and polite conversation. His copious use of cursing began as a bit of rock-’n’-roll affectation—a quick way of broadcasting his identity as the Boomtown Rats’ chief rogue—but over the years it’s become a foundation of his character.

I can only dream of being able to curse in public and get away with it like Bob does.


I often feel the urge.
