...priced, but if you've never seen a Cirque du Soleil show in your life, the experience is priceless. There are only four productions currently on stage in the U.S.--"O" at Bellagio, "Mystere" at Treasure Island in Las Vegas, "La Nouba" in Orlando and "Alegria" at the new Biloxi resort in Mississippi. I've seen the first three and "Mystere" is definitely my favorite--but that, perhaps, is because it was the first one I saw.

How soon some of us will assimilate, standing out from the crowd, in perfect conformity with the rest of us. We can take or leave us, but they will welcome...
Jeremiah O'Keefe is at his desk in the headquarters of Gulf National Insurance Co., a key part of the O'Keefe family's Biloxi empire. Gulf National sells "pre-need" funeral insurance, which lets forward-thinking souls pay in current dollars for funerals that are bound to be more costly down the road. Funerals have always been a family affair for the O'Keefes. As a teenager, O'Keefe helped out with embalmings done in the homes of the deceased, to which he and the embalmer brought large suitcases and big jugs for catching--well, for helping the newly...
