You can catch the full performance here, but this clip of the world-famous Cebu Detention and Rehabilitation Center dancers in the Philippines performing a medley of Queen songs-choreographed by a mass murderer!-may be just the thing to bring some light into your partly cloudy afternoon. Although there is something rather cruel about forcing prisoners to perform "I Want To Break Free." Enjoy!

Ride the gay taxi, that was good!
The first one was funny. Now it feels kinda' exploitatastic. As if maybe the first one would draw attention to, I dunno, how having prisoners do something as a community can lead to rehabilitation (or something!!) but now it's all just very dance-for-me-monkey it's-those-crazy-Filipinos again 24/7 cable news throw-to-a-feel-good bit freak show.
Also: Having been to Cebu, I hope all this "Cebu criminals" stuff isn't turning anyone off their excellent beaches and less excellent sunburns.
