Hairless in Hoboken
I’m a 24 years old money manager from Hoboken and I’ve never seen Hair – the movie or the play. Do you think I should see it? – Harold
Run – don’t walk – to your local video store! Hair is a classic not to be missed.

Who knew? I had no idea that the author of Hair lived in Hoboken (“The Age of Aquarius,” April 26). Thanks for the article. It was cool. – Mike, Hoboken
Peace out.

Strange news Why would B&G Foods think that anyone would want to write an essay about, “Who eats the most baked beans in my family and why they should eat more?” (“Strange News: Dept. of baked beans and baseball,” April 26). That’s totally bizarre. – John
We know. It seems like since we started our “Strange News” column, we’ve received even more strange news than before.

Mighty link
Despite JoAnne Steglitz’s review, “‘The Weakest Link’ is NBC’s weakest link,” (April 26), the show is anything but NBC’s weakest link. I heard its ratings are really high and that NBC plans to buy more episodes from the BBC. Just thought you should know. – Jen S., Hoboken
Just because the ratings are high doesn’t mean that it’s a quality show. Home Improvement was the number one sitcom for decades.

Pundit central
Does the Current have any predictions for the Hoboken and Jersey City mayoral elections? – Tony
We predict that they will be held Tuesday, and that the dude with the most votes will win.
