These colored concoctions will add panache to any dorm room décor and debauchery to any dorm room party. The Purple Headed Warrior, regularly served in the Winthrop pad of Jordan W. Webb ‘03, is the perfect way to conclude a night of inebriation. Webb explains: “This drink is a mix of a bunch of things that shouldn’t go together but do. The beauty of it is that it is hugely alcoholic, but it tastes like grape juice...
...Near the end of a brilliant career, at age 38 Bonds is widely regarded as the best hitter in the game today - perhaps the best ever. He is also a riddle wrapped in a cocoon of handlers and protected by a bulky "Barry Bonds" elbow pad. He is famously disliked, by sportswriters, certainly (Rick Reilly, for one, wrote an unkind, and unfair, piece about Bonds in Sports Illustrated last year), and by at least some of his teammates. One in Pittsburgh, where he played his first seven years, famously said he would "rather lose without Barry than win with...
...with the presence of beef satay, “shumai” and Thai “tempura” on the menu? We passed on the motley appetizers and each just ordered an entrée of just-manageable proportions. Reworking a perennial favorite, their Crispy Pad Thai ($8.95) was a scraggly nest of brittle threads strewn with shrimp, chicken, bean sprouts, scallions, egg and ground peanuts, sweet and sticky and sour, the whole inescapably recalling peanut butter (which, to me, is a good thing).

Who does anything as declasse as "decorating" anymore?) One single visits a stranger's pad for a surprise home renovation and, just maybe, a little somethin'-somethin' afterward. A silly idea, sure, but what better way to preview your future than to see what your prospective mate, given the chance, would do to your piles of CD jewel boxes? The eyes may be the window...
...lodge has a helicopter pad on a floating dock. Craig, one of the pilots, flies through narrow valleys half shrouded in mist and lands on tiny spits of land, with tree branches inches from his rotors. As he soars over river entrances, we see salmon massing in numbers that are just a memory in many of the dammed rivers elsewhere in the Pacific Northwest. King Pacific heli-fishes some 40 rivers within a one-hour flying radius of the lodge by special agreement with the local Tsimshian nation. Some of the Tsimshian work as fishing guides at the lodge...
