There have been misunderstandings aplenty in this classic clash, and lessons to be learned on all sides. First, the ranchers, who overreacted to a rather modest increase in quotas, should recognize that freer trade will ultimately benefit them. America's potential for export to a beef-loving world is enormous, and ranchers cannot exploit it while clamoring for rigid quotas...
...tickets for these games. They were sold out months ago. If you have to go, you might try to get bleacher seats, but you'd have to go early--like the night before--and prepare to camp out. Your best bet, then, is to watch both games of this classic baseball rivalry on television...Monday night at 8:30, Channel 5, with the ubiquitous Howard Cosell to accompany you--ever wonder how many Americans at any given moment are screaming "Shut up, Howard!"?

We don't think there's a chef around who can do what Mr. Bartley can for a slab of chopped beef; we also doubt there are too many with the nerve to charge his prices, either.

It must...
...pushing heroin, while Mick was off chasing, well, Some Girl other than his wife, and in general playin' the field every night. The Rolling Stones (remember them, the guys who used to piss in gas station lots and who now get followed in People Magazine), had just released a classic double-live record made up mostly of fold hits but had otherwise been impotent in the studio, fielding only tepid records like Black and Blue and Only Rock and Roll...
