...cabin, crafty taggers continuously sully the innocent snowmen with black spray paint. Not only a last-minute resource for party melt-downs, the structure also acts as a billboard for the company's other products such as 40 pounders, Dry Ice, Cocktail Ice and the legendary Booze Luge, all of which can be delivered with the ease of a phone call...
Thanks to cable, alternative sports are already racking up more hours on TV and more viewers. The household audience of ESPN for "extreme" sports like sky surfing and street luge has increased 119% since 1994, while fishing shows are watched by 34% more armchair anglers than they were four years ago.

But all the machinery in the world couldn't erase the piercing human moments: Harada, with his back against the temporary wall of a cafeteria, after his failure to win gold in the normal hill jump, a copy of the results sheet in a glove that said JAPAN; or Cammi Granato, the captain of the U.S. women's hockey team, after a black-lacquer disk with gold dust was hung around...
