...Roxy, by the way, is a cool place. With a large stage, a balcony that runs around three sides of the room, mirrors on the walls, and nice carpeting (except for the hardwood dance floor stuck right in front of the stage), it's completely opulent and a great place to see a show. The only bummer is that with tickets at $21.50, it's no cheap date. Then again, Branford Marsalis is no cheap name...

There, in the name of redressing ancient wrongs, white men are routinely shoved aside to make room for less qualified women and minorities. These favored ones have no problems at all-except for that niggling worry that their colleagues see them as underqualified "affirmative-action babies.'' Maybe there was once an evil called racism in this charmed place-30 or 300 years ago, that is-but it's been replaced by affirmative action...
