Perhaps Ashong's plan began in high school when he started writing music and stories. Or perhaps it was in college, where he composed music for Kuumba, acted for Black CAST (not to mention serving as president of the Black Students Association and running track). Perhaps it was the semester he spent in Ghana putting his own musical together. Or perhaps his big first step will be his upcoming Afro-American Studies senior thesis, a musical entitled "Songs We Can't Sing," that he is putting on in January...

...gone on the block in such a high-profile way that her price (not to mention her head) will inevitably go through the roof--and that's a problem for paleontologists, for whom a fossil this good is almost priceless. A nonprofit institution like the (currently Tyrannosaurus-less) Smithsonian, for example, will probably have to scrape up at least $1 million, and possibly more, to get this irreplaceable specimen--which is only partly mineralized and so offers scientists a rare chance to study actual dinosaur-bone tissue.

...Mention these cavils to Anderson, and he might quote a line from the movie: "That's not an MP, that's a YP--your problem." He made his film, and a pretty good one, about a community of working stiffs; the people fascinate him more than their product. So here's a tip for those attending this handsomely acted, epic-length little film. Ease into the sleaze, stare at the party animals, look but don't touch, and, oh, boogie all night...

...close, I asked Cole and Widenhouse in what direction they see the Zippers heading. Stu said, "We want to get into a cruise mode and keep going for a few years. Things are going great-I don't see how they could be better." He went on to mention the Zippers' new album, slated for release this spring. Some of the new songs from that album are included in the current tour and have been met with enormous support from the crowds. Je summed things up by adding, "the Zippers are one of the liveliest groups I've ever worked...
