...most women, catching the hey-baby bloodshot eye of a drunken sailor is about as pleasing as walking past a bevy of foul-tongued construction workers. Unfortunately, the women present at a Las Vegas naval gathering in September witnessed an even darker side of the military man on the make. In a memo issued last week, Navy Secretary H. Lawrence Garrett III implicated 70 officers in an investigation of sexual harassment at the now infamous Tailhook convention. Part of the shenanigans at this annual meeting of Navy and Marine aviators included lining up in the halls of the Hilton Hotel...

"A common thread running through the overwhelming majority of interviews was, 'What's the big deal?' " stated a report issued by the Naval Inspector General...
...just out for a night on the town with friends in Britain when he saw a jumping, jiving cabaret revue. It could not have been further from Mackintosh's customary taste. He favors life-and-death storytelling; Five Guys Named Moe is a wisp of a tale about a drunken lowlife cleaning up his act and winning back his lady love with the help of five hipsters who materialize out of his radio late one boozy night. Mackintosh shows are polished like gems, but Five Guys thrives on funk and folksy amateurism, including such audience participation gimmicks as a sing...
