Democracies use so few, and ours tend to look like Abbott and Costello movies, a cross between bacchanals and pajama parties. Where is the dignity in a presidential election campaign? Where are the issues of substance? Let us consider the matter with deep seriousness as the red, white and blue balloons shower down on our funny hats and a tuba ooms in our ears. More noise, please. (Is this your baby, madam? Extraordinary. Of course, I'll kiss...
...begin work on a collection of Yoko Ono songs recorded by other artists. The idea, however, lived on, and with a little help from her friends, Ono, 51, finally finished the album.

You can reach both by bus, or drive for an hour through scenic high wayland. During the summer, bands like the Talking Heads and Elvis Costello braved the stifling heat to go where Bostonians are in July and August--namely Cape Cod.
