...wonder Van Dyke isn't getting out. "People say, Van Dyke, why in the hell don't you retire?" he says. "Well, hell, I don't hunt and fish. I don't play golf. My wife won't let me chase girls, so what else is there?" And like any other great oilman, he's still got big dreams. "I'm taking all the properties we have in West Africa, going to make a great big sale, probably to the Chinese, the Indians, going to keep about a 15% interest." A deal like that could make him a billionaire...
...VOICE? The voice is such a mystery. It is hard to diagnose if something goes wrong. No one really knows what happened to Callas' voice when it went.

But what is up and running--and what has given the Betz family enough hope to go back and rebuild their lives--is Coast Episcopal School in nearby Long Beach, which both of Betz's children attend and where she is a teacher...
...Furries’ trademark has always been their eccentricities, but here the music seemed positively average, and the quirky presentation came across as more silly than innovative. While their previously preferred mode of entrance was an honest-to-God tank, this time around they showed a video of a golf cart ride before walking onto the stage; it seems like Wales’ most famous musical export has aged considerably. That’s not to say that they didn’t try to put on a show. On the contrary, they were visually striking, between their matching iridescent...
