Thank you for the kind mention of us as street performers in your piece on PBS's program about music along the Mississippi River [TELEVISION, Jan. 11]. However, we do not play just for "spare change," as your story stated. We want your money, honey! Throw us a dollar or throw us a five; help keep us alive! Or if you can afford plenty, give us a 20! We are winners of awards in New Orleans. Also, we play fairs and festivals all over the world. And here you can't even get coffee for spare change anymore. DAVID LEONARD...
Thinking of myself as the Antichrist was empowering. When an editor gave me a deadline, I thought, "I'll give you a deadline, honey--Armageddon." At restaurants I'd eat food off my friends' plates. This wasn't specifically mentioned in Revelation, but I was interpreting...
...Scripture describes manna as "a fine and flaky substance, as fine as frost on the ground," which falls with the dew but melts when the sun grows hot. In June in the Sinai peninsula, a plant louse that feeds on the fruit of the tamarisk tree secretes a yellow honey-like substance that congeals in the cool of the evening but melts in the day. The similarity is not lost on the locals: for at least 500 years they have peddled it to religious pilgrims, most recently under the brand name Mannite...
...after the band Sweet Honey in the Rock had livened things up in Symphony Hall, Panazz took over the building and filled it up with their own brand of celebration. The crowd was up and dancing in the aisles for parts of the second half of the show, and for all of the encore. Rarely does Symphony Hall catch that kind of inspiration. Hopefully, BankBoston will have the Panazz Players back next year and make this an annual tradition. Otherwise, Epcot center will be the only place in the U.S. to enjoy Panazz...
...ever nursed a cold with hot tea and honey, jump-started the day with a cappuccino, or soothed a sore throat with a mentholated cough drop, you've practiced herbal medicine. These remedies are so much a part of our daily routine that no one thinks them flaky. Nor do most doctors mind that you use them--as long as you don't overdo it. So why are so many U.S. physicians reluctant to recommend herbal supplements? Is it just a matter of ignorance and provincialism...
