...most intriguing moments came after the band had left the stage, only to return for the increasingly requisite encore performance (the second encore is the new encore, after all). The finale was begun with a cover of “Inside of You,” by the similarly outlandish countryish troubadour named Tom Jans. The song reflected a lot of Oldham’s own tendencies, including his bizarrely overt and yet endearing tendency to inject sexual references into otherwise Platonic enough songs of love lost and found (well, mostly lost). The group followed this cover with a beautiful...
Imagining White as the Most Valuable Player was an enjoyment for a moment, but no more pleasant than the next instant listening to the Cardinal understudy turned star Tito Landrum modestly describing the latest of his outlandish heroics. Landrum's opposite-field homer in Game 4 (3-0) left St. Louis just one victory from its tenth championship in 14 World Series.

He decides to invade Iraq, with minimal contingency planning. He decides to cut taxes drastically and then to spend an outlandish sum on a Medicare prescription-drug benefit. His presidency has been exhilarating and nerve-racking, imprudent and visionary-and now we learn that it is another thing as well: it is a prime example of the latest...
...Slaussen Cut-off, cut off your slaussen, get back in your car..." Art was one of the half-dozen characters Carson played over the years, and underlined the connection of this up-to-date show to the antique traditions of vaudeville, where the star would wear outlandish garb, leer at his voluptuous stooge, pirouette pratfalls - as Carson did once, with precision timing, onto his own (breakaway) desk...
