...least I tried to be. In 1992 and 1993, while researching a book on the forces that propelled guns into the hands of killers, I immersed myself in America's gun culture. I learned to shoot, haunted gun shows and went so far as to get myself a gun dealer's license just to see how easily such licenses could be obtained. The deeper I ventured into the culture, the more it seemed to me that the nation had bent over backward to ensure a brisk flow of guns to felons, wife killers and assorted other lunatics...
Before you dash off to the nearest dealer, though, check the auto exposure in your mutual funds and stock portfolio. You may be able to cut your best deal right at home--by cutting your auto holdings. The stocks have had a nice run. They're up 65% in the past two years, vs. 47% for the Standard & Poor's 500.

Following his small dramatic roles as Steve Rubell in the unsuccessful film 54 and as a repentant drug dealer in the unreleased Pete's Meteor, Myers felt ready to have another go at Austin.

Kid Rock had to beg his skeptical father for a loan to put out an indie record (he has his own small label, Top Dog). At a local record signing early...
...station herself, so she got the police to come to her house to pick up the guns. I called the New York police to find out if they would pick up some guns from my apartment. They told me to sell them to a gun dealer. I told them I thought footage of the police gun-retrieval squad at my apartment would be more Access Hollywood-friendly than a tape of me and a gun dealer. They put me on the phone with Detective Walter Burnes, who said I'd probably get a visit if I called...
