...sellers has truly created some strange monsters. Nothing in the cultural history of the Western world, for example, could be weirder than the spectacle of Michael Jackson, a man who has changed his race via countless operations on his face, singing "I'm looking at the man in the mirror/...I'm gonna make a change.." completely seriously. Not only is Michael Jackson a semi-human entity who makes the headlines of the Weekly World News seem downright normal; he is a hero for the youth of America. Think about it. A hero for the children of our country...
...dirt on a cold mountaintop, nearly two miles up in the clear Arizona sky, watching the sun go down and worrying. A shadow slowly creeps past her, cast by a nearby tan, four-story building that looks like a gigantic bread box. Inside the bread box is the Multiple Mirror Telescope, the world's third most powerful telescope. It looks like no other. There is no glistening dome; it might be a four-story barn.

Zurbriggen was fortune...
That's a lot of understatement. Brian Boitano and Brian Orser are linked circles in a perfect figure eight -- they mirror each other. It is not just because they have the same name, the same lean look and the same longish hairstyle. The two are both homebodies who enjoy the pampered slot of youngest in a long line of siblings. Each took up skating before his tenth birthday, and (unlike most skaters) still trains with his first and only coach. Both have captured a string of national figure-skating titles, Boitano in the U.S., | Orser in Canada. Each has reigned...
