...sure, I appreciated the agency's concern for these animals - it was without a doubt reassuring to know that the dog we were getting had come to us via an ASPCA culture instead of a cramped metal cage at Mutts R Us. And I'm a genuine dog lover: I cried at the end of Old Yeller just like everyone else. Our dog is one of Miami's most coddled canines. (He's on my lap right now as I write this because a loud thunderstorm is spooking him.) But there was also something a bit over the top about...
...Guru” begin with promising, tight intros, and for about a minute I experience indie bliss. But then that damn Oujia board takes hold and the lyrics goes careening off in the wrong direction while we’re left with some flute solo or a heavy metal interlude. Very few songs can survive such abrupt transitions (Derek and the Dominoes’ “Layla” being one obvious exception) and this bipolarity often comes off as cliché.

And not to be left out, Motley Crue and front man Vince Neil launch into "Looks that Kill" as their Ocean City, Maryland, audience screams along with the lyrics...
...interested in seeing this patient because I'd never done one of the new hips. My teacher had done them in the old days, thousands of them, but he abandoned them immediately and completely when the first metal-on-plastic hips came out. "It would be foolish to go back" is what he'd said 20 years ago when I asked him about the old designs - I took his word for it and, so far, have never regretted it. I also knew from my own experience, having done more than 1,000 hip surgeries by that point, that the metal...
