...mini-harangues that fit within the confines of the under-one-and-a-half-minute rock song. The topics have become expected and patterned, and So Long's lack of musical exploration leaves them susceptible to criticism. Hopefully the future will show that this album is simply a restful hiatus, a stepping stone for a return to or expansion of the precedent set by Heavy Petting...
...Middle East basement from the blistering breezes, eagerly awaiting any glint of the band's presence. The last two times the band cruised through the Boston area, they were eclipsed once by a horrible snowstorm and another time by Bad Religion. But they've happily returned after a long hiatus in support of their new album, Honey, I'm Homely, a less-than-glowing follow-up to the beaming Lockjaw.

When the Supreme Court reinstated capital punishment in 1976, after a brief hiatus, it stressed that extreme vigilance should be applied in capital cases since death is, after all, the "most irrevocable of sanctions." But the U.S. has spent the past 20 years trading that idea in for the ideal of quick justice. The Supreme Court and the lower levels of the federal judiciary have steadily narrowed the methods of appeal. In 1984 and 1986, for example, the Supreme Court ruled that defendants were not entitled to special appeals reviews and that striking...
