Curious Connections

A French Muslim youth complains of police harassment:

"You wear these clothes, with this color skin and you're automatically a target for police," said Ahmed, 18, pointing to his mates in Izod polo shirts, Nike sneakers and San Antonio Spurs T-shirts.

I did a double-take on the reference to San Antonio Spurs T-shirts. In many respects, the world is quite small.
