CBC: Not so boring any more!!

I have always loved U2. The Joshua Tree and Rattle and Hum comprised the soundtrack to my life, half a lifetime ago. Ten minutes ago, I was listening to The Best Of 1980 - 1990 as I cleaned the kitchen. In my peripatetic life, U2 is a constant.

Yesterday, Anthony Germain interviewed Bono on CBC Radio One's The House. I was astounded by Bono's deep and clear understanding of Canada and of Third World issues.

Appletini induced question: What do the people who actually know Bono call him? Does his wife say "Bono, pick up some milk on the way home?" or does she call him Paul? How about Sting? What does his wife call him?
