...were different. We were cooler. We were better. Those of us who were alternative-rock fans in the '80s would tell you we listened to the music because we cared about songwriting and authenticity, were turned off by the staleness of overblown arena rock--true enough, but let's fess up. When you bought a Housemartins single or a Husker Du album in the '80s, you bought entry into a club. Our music was hard to find: you had to know the right radio stations, the right clubs, the right record stores. It did not make Casey Kasem's countdown...
...element. Sometimes growing to more than 20 ft. long and up to 4,000 lbs., it keeps its body temperature 5[degrees]F to 10[degrees]F higher than that of the surrounding water by recycling heat from its swimming muscles. This allows great whites to hunt in cooler seas. "It seems to make them more vigorous," says Van Sommeran.

Primitive elephants, giant bears, horses, rhinos, pigs, rats and monkeys lived here, along with dozens of other mammal species long since extinct...
...Producer. Stro took the song and multiplied it by a million pink gels. She created a drab, soul-crushing accounting office where Leo secretly ruminates about his fantasy. The dream sequence was entirely her idea--beautiful chorus girls in golden costumes stepping out of filing cabinets, the water cooler becoming an enormous Dom Perignon champagne bottle. She knows the human heart so well, she knew what Leo would be fantasizing about, and she put it right there on the stage...
