The comedian and actor, best known for his appearances and pinch-hosting duties on the Comedy Central hit The Chappelle Show, opened his mouth recently and hilariously took the director Spike Lee to task for Lee’s dissing of Quentin Tarrantino’s new movie, Django Unchained. According to published reports, Lee said he has not seen and has no plans to see Tarrantino’s movie because of the film’s use of the N-word. Well, Rawlings thinks that is just silly. He recently told a TMZ crew how silly it is while filling his car at a gas station. He told me so in a phone interview after safely pulling his car to the side of the road.

Many of the changes have been easily seen, includ- ing the addition of the Auer Center for Arts & Culture as another impor- tant component in the campus. Other changes have been less visible but have also changed the landscape of the arts in our area. Among those is the launch in 2012 of Arts Tix, the community box office helmed by Arts United, an initiative which has brought local arts organizations into the 21st century and has made the busy slate of performanc- es in the area more accessible.
