...EARWIGS are giggling, did we hear a soft moan from one is yet-to-be-converted about how the business of government is business, or something, but certainly not gala parties and three-hour lunches? Nonsense we say. The dreary old Capitol building has nothing over the cute little bistro on M Street. If you find it just slightly barbaric that hundreds of newspaper readers every day revel in the personal and professional ups and downs of those in the proverbial public spotlight, well, you can always preface the names you drop from reading the Ear with a heartfelt...
...Crimson aquamen, the Harvard Band, the cute teenaged timers with their "Bernal's Gator's" tee-shirts, and the other entertainers that Coach Bernal has ushered onto the Blodgett stage, Saturday was only a tune-up for bigger things to come. Vols and Crimson Tide, eat your hearts...

Who would want to scare away all those big middle-class audiences by staging any "language strong," anyway...
Rocky had some appeal because of its innocent chutzpah. Anyone who had the nerve to make such a corny movie deserved to succeed. Stallone is like a child who, upon receiving a piece of candy for performing some cute and harmless stunt, promptly performs the trick all over again. Only the second time the act has no spontaneity, and becomes mildly annoying. Let's hope Stallone doesn't try it a third time...
