London's West End, theater's most hallowed ground, has of late been long on celebrity and short on serious theater. A parade of Hollywood stars with minimal acting chops have invaded Theaterland - among them Woody Harrelson and Kyle MacLachlan, but most notoriously Madonna in the execrable Up For Grabs - many of them sellout performances in every sense of the phrase. After Matthew Perry (one of the Friends) began filling the Comedy Theatre with his lightweight turn in David Mamet's Sexual Perversity in Chicago, you began to wonder if schlock is the only way to sell tickets these days...
...kept pace with inflation in 2002. In part, the sluggishness can be traced to a post-9/11 shift in leisure tastes. After the terrorist attacks, business dropped off at upscale restaurants and clubs. "People would still go out, but not to spend as they did before," says Michael Harrelson, editor of the trade publication Nightclub...
Sandler may see Anger Management as a step in the maturing of his movie image: penis envy has replaced peeing as a running gag. He also surrounds himself with a high breed of stooge (John C.

...Graveses needed political help to do the same for hemp, so Andrew went to an old family friend, Louie Nunn, a former Governor of Kentucky. If you associate hemp only with Woody Harrelson, Nunn is a jarring figure. He's a lifelong Republican. He will be 78 in March, and his major indulgences are University of Kentucky basketball and dirty jokes. But for Nunn, hemp is about economics, not the drug war. He wants locally grown hemp to be used for parts in the 1.2 million cars built in Kentucky every year. Like his allies in other farm-state legislatures...
...Although there were a variety of bands, speakers, and entertainers (including a scheduled appearance by actor Woody Harrelson at 4:20pm), hardcore bands like C60, Sam Black Church and Scissorfight seemed out of place, with the similar-sounding band Tree (of “God Grows Grass” fame) more appropriate in terms of content, but not in vibe. Scissorfight wasn’t shy about their New Hampshire roots—with the lead singer featuring a mound of curly orange hair and a long orange beard look and another band member sporting a John Deere farm equipment...
