...candidates had to display their skill at writing mail-order copy-filling in blanks opposite catalogue pictures of rich chocolate cakes, golden Oregon peaches and those dwarf Christmas pines. The blend of gush and gusto that makes Bear Creek so successful is hard to match. Of the dwarf pine, one applicant writes, "A tree-mendous way to remember Christmas." Holmes and Stump groan. And groan again when confronted by "It's love at first bite"-about the nine-layer chocolate cake ($18.95 delivered...

So we get references to the Dalai Lama, Lulu moves on roller skates, Schwartz the painter becomes Carbone the fashion photographer, Rodrigo the acrobat...
With a poignant blend of sadness and stoicism, the hostages conveyed Christmas greetings to their Stateside families. The messages reflected their own understated hope that they might soon be free-and indirectly, outside Iran, inspired new resentment over the fact that they had been held for so long in such an unlawful way. Some of the scenes were moving and memorable...
