...changes from The Who’s version. Though on both recordings it sounds like the curse should come at the “fuh fuh fuh ... fade away!” segment of the song, Patti Smith decides to modify more drastically, changing The Who’s mild “things are looking pretty cold / I hope I die before I get old” to a bombastic cry of “I don’t need their fucking shit! / hope I die because of it!” The foul-mouthed Patti Smith broke...
...still be healthy," she recently told the newspaper Hoogeveensche Courant. "The answer is, I have never smoked or drunk too much alcohol. I eat well and just keep breathing." Though Van Andel-Schipper loves to talk, she hasn't been chatting to the press lately due to a mild bladder infection. "We're sure she will bounce back shortly," says Johan Beijering, director of the retirement home in the northern Dutch town of Hoogeveen where Van Andel-Schipper has lived for the past eight years.

In actuality, Kerry appears as a milder version of Bush, presenting many seemingly conservative policies that will not really address the problems of underprivileged America...
...very well. A drug called Ritodrine, which was approved by the Food and Drug Administration in 1980, successfully stops preterm labor in many women, but subsequent studies have shown that it has no overall effect on a baby's health or survival. Treating all uterine infections, no matter how mild, also appears to make no difference on the timing of delivery--suggesting that infection is only one stage in a larger, much more complex process. "We've been taking the one-cause-at-a-time approach for 20 years," says Dr. Jay Iams at Ohio State University in Columbus...
