...such series has materialized. Instead, Moore has frittered away the time by trying to parlay an indifferent singing voice and nice legs into a career as a song-and-dance woman. Last winter she came up with a special called How to Survive the 70s and Maybe Even Bump into Happiness, a thoroughly distasteful blend of toothless social satire and Vegas vulgarity. This fall Moore unveiled Mary, a regular variety show in CBS's old Sunday-night Ed Sullivan slot. On Mary the star had the aid of some top writers and supporting players, including Dick Shawn and Swoozie...
...dwindle to two or three patients a week. Lugging a 275 lb. tin man around the country is hard work; Arok must be carefully packed in his custom-built, veneered sarcophagus with the plywood bas-relief of him on the lid.

...standing with friends on the last slope at the Snowmass-at-Aspen area, which runs between two lodges. He turned to Jim and handed him his parka. "Watch this," he said, and took off down the slope. He made a few quick turns, then headed for a bump, took a huge jump, and landed in the middle of a lodge swimming pool, which was unoccupied. He swam around the pool collecting his equipment, which came off when he hit the water, climbed out, put his skis back on, zipped down the mountain to the lodge where they were all staying...
