Jewish American Heritage Month

U2 frontman Bono was seriously injured last month while cycling in Central Park; he had to undergo a number of surgeries following the "high energy" accident. But one question lingered: how could no one notice Bono cycling and crashing in Central Park? The Edge has an answer: "You know, when Bono goes cycling he likes to dress up as a Hasidic Jew," said the fully-grown man who goes by the moniker The Edge.

The Edge, an adult, offered some choice details of what happened to Bono that fateful bloody Sunday on KROQs Kevin & Bean Show yesterday: "Were kind of lucky he was wearing a helmet so he didnt actually break Central Park," the guitarist said. "But hes made of of tough stuff and hes bouncing back. Hes so upset about the fact that, unfortunately were about to announce, were not going to be able to do the Acoustic Christmas because hes been told by his doctors that hes got to stay put. Hes back in Dublin right now and basically he cant move for the next couple of months."

Haaretz has a few more details from the interview:

Hes doing physio to keep the joints active twice a day, he added.

We still have so many questions: was The Edge joking? Does Bono dress up as a Hasidic Jew all over the world as a disguise? Does he have other disguises? Why are we the only people in the world who think "Discotheque" is kind of great? And has Bono learned his lesson about cycling where the streets have no bike lanes?
