...West that tells us how a handful of big-mouth lily-livers made up their own myths as they went along. Grey, the weazy sycophant behind Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show, certainly found his modern counter-parts in the New York film critics crowd, a bunch that seems to want to "Altmanify" the world, and did their damndest to verbally contort this pleasant but rambling work into a masterpiece...

East Rutherford, New Jersey residents, in fact, never envisioned a big-time football stadium in their private bog--they had in mind a couple of factories, maybe a sewage plant, or something.

One reporter asked Howe if he had ever had a girlfriend in the Four Corners area--the site of the controversial Kaiparowits power plant. Howe started to answer but was cut off by his wife's vehement reply: "Of course he had a girlfriend. Me!" His attorney said that such questions are the reason Howe can never get a fair trial in Utah. The reporter tried to ask another question, but Howe interrupted to ask what paper he was from. When...
