...worth it to go to concerts. Sorry. The Pistols have spoken.Then again, I can think of one reason why there’s a glimmer in the darkness. One reason why I still don’t entirely regret vomiting out $75 to see two nights of Pixies last autumn. Live rock and roll shows are the best practice for therapy that I can think of.Note: I didn’t say they were therapy.

It was as if I had literally bedded a cranky parrot, or kept a menagerie in my pillow...
...says this weather, although mercurial, is nothing out of the ordinary. “The weather right now is weird because it is normal for the weather to be weird,” said Rotch Professor of Atmospheric and Environmental Science Steven C. Wofsy. Wofsy said, however, that this autumn has been unusually wet, which is why the leaves changed their colors late or not at all. Right now, autumn is transitioning into winter, accounting for the extremely variable weather, Drag said. “Winter is trying to make a little intrusion, then it gets booted...
