...mass consumption that the world had literally never seen before. Pope likes to chart the changes by looking at Mr. America winners, which he called up on the Internet in his office last week. "Look at this guy," Pope exclaims when he clicks on the 1943 winner, Jules Bacon. "He couldn't even win a county body-building contest today." Indeed, there are 16-year-olds working out at your gym who are as big as Bacon. Does that necessarily mean that today's body builders--including those 16-year-olds--are 'roided? Pope is careful.

But amidst the walls of beans, there is an undercurrent of meat-yearning. On a refrigerator covered in plastic magnet letters, the words "Meat Ball" are raggedly...
...least deserves to give Shania Twain a run for her money. On Getting There, there's a version of "Jersey Girl" by Tom Waits, a musician who has managed to forge an acting career with an ounce of grace; perhaps some day we can play Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon with musicians rather than just actors...
