Girth aside, lest you think I am some inhumane, round-up-the-homeless-and-put-'em-in-a-hole reactionary, let me point out that I am not at all averse to giving spare change to the homeless. Although there are times I wish they wouldn't resort to such maddening gestures like opening the door for me and expecting a "reward" for their efforts--as if my two arms had suddenly become nonfunctional and I would otherwise be unable to enter 7-Eleven to buy a box of Pop Tarts--the truth is that some people are just plain...
...First, he released a greatest hits album--even though he's been around for less than a decade. Then came the double-CD package last year which was a double gimmick--two CDs at a low price so that Soundscan would register two purchases for every one. Oh, and lest we forget, the double CD was available in six (!) different collectible editions (did he really think that his fans would by 12 CDs??).

Early '90s tracks like "Find The River" and "Sweetness Follows" were brooding, tear-inducing and gorgeous. And their positively manic and explosive finale of "It's The End Of The World As We Know It" had more energy than a bawitdaba and a nookie combined...
...conference was a great success, six days of purposeful activities and inspirational speakers, a gifted group of participants and a skillfully organized executive committee overseeing the whole thing. But lest you think this column is just an ad for the WLC (that's what my T-shirt is for), I wanted to write about the issues of feminism and politics raised in one of the speeches we heard, the keynote address by Marie C. Wilson President of the Ms. Foundation and of the White House Project. (She also helped create "Take Our Daughters To Work...
