...William Colby. Just days before his fatal canoe accident, the former CIA director gave one of his last interviews to the CD-ROM magazine Blender. The June/July issue offers a grainy video, recorded at a sidewalk cafe in Washington, in which Colby ruminates on Oswald-as-commie-spy stories, bullet trajectories and JFK director Oliver Stone. Colby's conclusion: "You have to look at [the assassination] suspiciously," but there's no definitive proof anyone but Oswald was involved. Afterward, Blender reporter James Gordon Meek thanks Colby for his candor: "You talk about the Kennedy thing more than anyone alive." Hmmmm...
Zyuganov's parents, neither of whom ever joined the party, were schoolteachers. His father Andrei, a peaceful man whose hobby was beekeeping, nearly lost his right leg to a German bullet in the fighting near Sevastopol and walked with a severe limp for the rest of his life. Like much of rural Russia, Mymrino still lacks plumbing and paved roads. The region suffered from the mass arrests and forced collectivization of Stalin's time, although you won't hear Zyuganov talk about that when he rhapsodizes about Russia's rural past in his speeches...

From there, however, the Western idiom begins to unravel as our hero, with a bullet in his heart, disappears into the wilderness to hide from the posse sent after...
...more than a century the Marine Corps' traditional eagle, globe and anchor tattoo has been rippling across the biceps and backs of Leathernecks. But lately, too many recruits are festooned with adornments too tasteless for even hardy jarheads. One Marine wannabe's temple, for example, bore tattoos of bullet holes with blood oozing from them (he didn't get in). Another recruit sported a naked woman (he was barred until he had a bathing suit tattooed upon her). Recruiters are forwarding snapshots of dubious tattoos to senior officers for their approval before the wearers are allowed into the Marines...
