That's actually what I find to be the real puzzle here. He's convering a *Queen* song, fercrinity. How the hell does that happen? No word if Dwight's gonna go the jump suit/chest hair route. [Matt Benz] Well, Ms. Neko Case covered a Queen song, and quite successfully, and

Why Shania hasn't been plucked for spokespersondom is a mystery. Probably asked, and refused. Chris Shania's cozy with K-Mart jeans. Seriously - they're backing her tour and she occasionally models for them. Check out the new spring line and see the jeans with the stripes down the side - for
