...cheeseburgers, but it can't get you a calorie-conscious salad. Worse, Hicks doesn't even recognize the weightist prejudice he's expressing: "Incapacitated? Well, she can't really walk so well, but I don't really see that mild disability keeping her out of the job market. Discriminated against? No, nothing there, either."

Now, Brooks has his sights set on breaking the Beatles all-time sales record and he's obsessed. Just look at the way he's been dumping on the market recently. 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...
