...cast makes you look good. It’s a collaborative process. THC: Tell us more about “Acropolis Now.”WBP: It’s really good, better than last year’s show, and I say that with complete honesty. The music is wonderful with some very catchy tunes, and the show is brilliant. It takes place in Ancient Greece, and it’s about the first Olympics ever.

...heart. While she delivers messages that are brash, defiant and sometimes painfully candid, she delivers them in poppy tunes, soft beats and simple harmonies. Her voice, too, is gentle and—at least to the American ear—charmingly accented.

The radio stations are chosen by the dining hall staff, and while you can count on hearing Top 40, classic rock, or oldies in most houses, not all d-hall music is created equal. Afternoons at Quincy are dominated by oldies, the bosses’ favorite, with classic rock coming on after 4:00 p.m. But when Mike L.

It’s hard to make fun of people who display immense earnestness. Hurling well-aimed boomerangs at themselves in an attempt to make others laugh with them rather than at them, Chester French pulls no punches in their premiere music video. Unfortunately, it seems like people will be laughing, heartily, at Chester French while watching their video. In “She Loves Everybody,” D.A.
