...Margret. "I like to be stretched," she said. "Ken not only stretched me; he put me through the wringer." Wearing a knit jumpsuit, she had to dance around a smashed TV set as the room filled with soapsuds. "But the room filled up so fast I couldn't see anything.

Clad in a skin-tight vinyl jumpsuit and wearing a red, white and blue sweat band around his left wrist, he danced and skittered about the stage, his legs braced wide like a defiant 14 year-old, a Donny Osmond on speed.
