...best defense. "There is nowhere in any of the sheriff's or school's investigation of what happened that shows this was caused by jock culture," says county school spokesman Rick Kaufman. "Both Harris and Klebold dished out as much ribbing as they received. They wanted to become cult heroes. They wanted to make a statement...
...sticker on the cover of You Are Here labels Cary Pierce as co-founder of Jackopierce, but it would be a mistake to use Pierce's former title to define his debut solo album.

Other predictable songs are here, such as "I Can't Dance" and "ABACAB," the latter whose introductory guitar riff is familiar, even if you didn't know from which track it came. "Jesus He Knows Me," an ironic single about evangelism and the cult of religion, drives forth with infectious energy, while the soulful inflections on "That's Me" illustrate that Genesis are multi-dimensional, if not fully experimental...
