...attendance at national parks soared, Ford's Office of Management and Budget consistently refused to let the National Park Service spend more to meet the demands. But two weeks ago, bidding for support from park lovers and conservationists, Ford posed before Yellowstone National Park's Old Faithful geyser to propose a $1.5 billion, 10-year parks improvement program...
...familiar mix-the gaunt but unmarked face and the insinuating nasal rasp. He slouches buzzing over his guitar, his voice dry as locusts. Then, without warning, Bruce Springsteen rears back and uncorks a geyser of white hot sound. Cataracts of electrically charged fragments of sound lacerate the air, scattering intimations of Dylan and colliding with the fierce rhythms of Springsteen's own wild fusion of rock, jazz and folk rock...
Close to the midseason mark, Broadway has been parched for laughs. Well, the drought is over. A comic geyser is flooding the Plymouth Theater with hilarity. Two British zanies, Peter Cook and Dudley Moore, have released it, and these men are stark-raving bonkers. Cook, the tall one, has the imperturbable aplomb of a tightly furled umbrella. Moore, the short one, scurries round like a libidinous opossum. Employing literate wit and razor-edged satire, the pair take off on the Nativity, a homosexual Othello, Germaine Greer's theories on Women's Lib and the perils of running...
...horizon. If the object was actually a black hole, it would have easily penetrated the earth in an almost straight line and emerged eight minutes later on the other side, about 1,000 miles east of Nova Scotia, triggering underwater and atmospheric shock waves and drawing off a thin, geyser-like column of water as it flew into space. Jackson and Ryan suggest that their theory may be supported by a search of oceanographic records and ships' logs for any reports of strange doings in the North Atlantic on the day of the 1908 Siberian explosion...
...would be safe to say that El Topo is the bloodiest movie ever made. There is no five-minute period of it without either a mangled body, a disemboweled animal, or a death, exaggeratedly bloody to the same degree that Hollywood traditionally exaggerates death's neatness. Blood spurts geyser-like out of bullet wounds, stabbed men vomit blood, pools of blood cover the ground. The deaths are shown lustily--the camera voyeuristically gravitates toward the worst of the blood. The deaths are surreal, lacking in lesson or meaning, worse than life...
