Forget TED-- Pecha Kucha's back in town. Founded in Japan (its name is Japanese for 'chit chat'), the patented 20x20 format keeps things ticking along: each presenter gets to natter about 20 images for a heart-racing 20 seconds each. With the comedy festival in town, the theme this time 'round is "Are you serious?" We don't know about you, but we're seriously looking forward to hearing the speakers -- who range from a cartoonist to the owner of Bennetts Lane Jazz Bar -- tell us what makes their lives funny.
