...there are less than saintly stories about one of the young suspects. Archildress Byrd, a neighbor, describes R., known for his neatly cornrowed hair, as a terror to other kids in the community, an intimidating force who always wanted his way. "He'd throw bricks and stuff at people," Byrd says. "I just walk past him 'cause he was just too bad." Says another: "R.'s been around adults all his life. If you heard him over the radio, you'd think he's a man. He has a real bad mouth." Neighbors told TIME that R. is a gang...
...Dempsey, 46, returned to her $1.6 million home from a Las Vegas vacation, found that the usual assortment of lounging businessmen and $225-an-hour courtesans were missing and turned herself in to face charges of promoting prostitution. Says Lorraine Weinlein, 71, a local who freely discusses her enterprising neighbor: "It's almost like a dream. You just don't expect this sort of thing." Who would?

They say the township has lost its cloistered innocence. "This road is now notorious. People come to stop and gawk," sighed a homeowner as a car swung into her driveway, having done just that. "We're so used to hearing about these sordid things these days that nothing shocks us anymore," said Weinlein, the neighbor, "and it's sad." She cast her eyes around. "Pretty soon it's going to be old news. Things will...
Kiss and Broadway have identical plots: a smart guy falls for a hunky guy and spends the whole movie waiting to be kissed by him. Even the supporting characters are similar. Whereas straight film romances may feature a wisecracking gay neighbor, the gay movies are about two guys and a chirpy-cynical woman friend--Eve Arden on Fire Island. With their bright colors and show-tune overlay, these films are unapologetically romantic. They're at their most endearing when they attend to the crucial, clumsy negotiations at the beginning of any relationship, and to that old-fashioned movie wallop...
