...perhaps you should dance. The slower tunes don't quite work. "The Only One" is overly melancholy, while the resurfacing of Kylie Minogue (on "In Denial") won't do her career any favors. Still, the album loves the nightlife, and "New York City Boy" (another Morales track) is a camp anthem to behold. As the boys once sang, "we were never being boring...
...Germany, culminating in the Holocaust. It explores this theme on a personal, individual level--through the character of John Halder (Diego Arciniegas), a humanities professor and a fundamentally good man who ultimately dons an S.S. uniform and heads off for his new position at the Auschwitz death camp. Halder's ascent (or descent) is recounted in a series of disconnected episodes that recall the pivotal moments in his life in the '30s. In the earliest scenes, the audience learns that Halder is a Goethe scholar at the Frankfurt University recruited by the Nazis for a small novel that he publishes...
...movie, so we made a quick detour into Uno's to grab a midnight snack. I half expected to see John Malkovich in the bathroom mirror. "Hey, remember me?" said a kid standing in front of the bathroom door as soon as I exited.

...Personally, though, I think that a good deal of "The X-Files" attraction can be attributed to the show's avante garde flair. It's got the same kind of cheesy camp as "The Rocky Horror Picture Show," evidenced by the weekly tagline, "The Truth is Out There," and the clever play upon every alien and government conspiracy cliche on the books. The characters are unique and quirky, the wit is dry, and the double entendre is in constant employment. Also, all of the components of traditional action thrillers are present; gunfights, international intrigue, colorful bad guys, and massive quantities...
What, you mean I actually have to campaign? That seemed to be the general refrain from the George W. Bush camp on Thursday, when he agreed to join a debate of Republican presidential hopefuls in Iowa December 13. Bush was conspicuous in his absence from a five-way Republican candidates' debate in New Hampshire on October 28 that resembled a WWF slugfest until all the combatants agreed to criticize Bush for sitting on his cushy lead and forgoing the traditional campaign process. When the dust settled, Sen. John McCain had not only gained serious ground on Bush in New Hampshire...
