...remember hearing stories told by fellow geeks about wonderful aphrodisiacs that you could give to women to put them into that perfect state of limp compliance that made geek love possible. A Coke with an aspirin slipped into it, or there was a tasteless, odorless, 180-proof liquor called Everclear that you could buy in North Dakota -- you slipped that into a girl's glass of punch, they said, and 10 minutes later her defenses were down. She stood there in her white taffeta prom gown and white corsage and said, "Why, thank you so much for the wonderful Pepsi...
...wife, Madlyn. The parallel structure is nothing but kitschy and is certainly not worth her laughable performance. In her big scene in which she must grieve both the death of her father and her marriage, Ferrara must work Madlyn into a rage of frustration and abandonment.

The 65-year-old retired pathologist was hauled into a Detroit courtroom last Friday to face charges of violating a new Michigan law that makes assisting suicides a crime. He went limp rather than post bond and had to be dragged out by the arms, his legs scraping the floor. "I won't eat," he vowed. Like a one-man Greek chorus, his lawyer intoned, "We are now beginning the death watch...
Pitted against these bipolar forces is one of the country's most experienced politicians -- the holder of nine Cabinet posts in previous Liberal governments -- and a vocal federalist. Chretien, 59, takes office with a clear, if daunting, mandate: to turn around the limp economy while preserving an expensive social-service network that 28.5 million Canadians -- and Chretien himself -- see as an inalienable right...
