Iced Iced Coffee

Add coffee to Vanilla Ice's Surreal milking of his 15 minutes. Dunkin' Donuts is launching a campaign to raise awareness about its iced coffee (did you get your free one yesterday?), and part of its assault was to commandeer Boston's Copley Square with a karaoke competition; contestants sang "Ice Ice Baby" -- set to caffeinated lyrics -- and were judged by Beantown comic Lenny Clarke and the great Van Winkle himself. The winner, who enlisted her four-year-old daughter as background dancer, was awarded free coffee for a year and had mad flow for a Latin Lit professor. Add DD's Iced Coffee to the list of things for which Americans should show him gratitude. Watch the highlights at Boston.tv. (Thanks, Dave G.)

Lenny Kaye = Patti Smith collaborator.

Perhaps you meant Lenny Clarke, Dennis Leary collaborator?

As a St. Louis-area resident, I'd have to have been out of town to get the free Dunkin' Donuts coffee. We haven't had Dunkin' Donuts around here for years (yet still get the ads)!

Premature Evaluation: The Walkmen - You & Me
