...blood into a population of relative innocents can yield horribly strange and potentially traumatic events. In The Pitchfork Disney, the new blood takes the form of the smooth-voiced and sardonic Cosmo Disney (Thomas H. Price ’02), who works as one half of a two-man freak show. Decked out in a black tuxedo, ordinary save for a flamboyant red coat, Disney proceeds to intimidate the portly, oft-timid Presley in a lengthy, riveting sequence of interplay. Price, for a good while, is sublime, manipulating Presley’s feeble mind with fine skill, shifting between master...
...that it wasn't breathtaking to watch a shiny new ex-presidency disappear under a freak mud slide. The debris hurtled by so fast that the New York Times editorial page seemed to run out of synonyms for disgust, revulsion and abuse. Jimmy Carter, the perfect ex-President, broke the cardinal rule of the brotherhood and called Clinton's pardon of Marc Rich "disgraceful." Even Terry McAuliffe, the former President's friend, said that decision had been wrong. Perhaps worst of all, there seemed to be no end to the bodies that might float down the swollen river.

...meteorologist might call Clinton's first month out of office a perfect storm: a freak convergence of fast-moving, late-season weather patterns, a lethal collision of the profound and the trivial. The thunderhead of accusations confirms every fair and unfair thing his enemies have ever said about him--and puts him once again in the sights of a federal prosecutor, this time U.S. Attorney Mary Jo White of New York. Not only are there calls to haul him before Congress, but also they are coming from fellow Democrats who defended him through every past scandal. This time...
