...Viet Nam, but in the dream, "they had shipped me back. Somehow they found me at the age of 38 and sent me back. I woke up in a sweat, in total terror." That was two years ago. Now Stone, who earned a Bronze Star and a MASH unit's worth of physical and emotional wounds in the jungles of Viet Nam, has transformed his war experience -- the bad dream he lived through for 15 months in 1967-68 -- into a film called Platoon.

...garsh... Halloween can be a lonely time too. While your schoolchums are busy doing the Monster Mash at a Mather House bash, or mixing exotic witch's brews in 10-speed blenders and plasticoated cauldrons, you may find yourself all by your lonesome, with nothing to do but nurse a paltry patch of goosepimples...

To sip with the caribou, there is clear water from an 8,000-year-old Canadian glacier. For those who wander through Vancouver itself--and everyone should--there is wide culinary variety, everything from Afghan to Mexican. On Granville Island, a yuppie heaven of high-priced condominiums and boutiques, several good restaurants on the water top coffee and dessert with a view of the 10 o'clock fireworks display, which signals the fair's nightly closing...
