...cutie two seats down...well, that might be a little much to ask. So why are you making that idiotic pass during the closing credits? It goes to show that we all need a little bit of risk, a few surprises here and there. Though most mainstream films may pander to our expectations, there's always that occasional standout that is either more than we expected or changes what we expect.

...Fragile has very little fat on it, and in the age of the Backstreet Boys, it courageously dares to not pander to radio. The album has an organic feel, with little of the machine-like velocity and crushing density of Spiral. Reznor leaves breaks in the sonic wall this time, allowing the songs to breathe.

...were feeling swell about the letter, because for the first time, as one says, "she made a judgment that the dictates of New York politics were going to structure what she did. She crossed a Rubicon." In other words, she had the good sense to notch her first abject pander to a New York interest group. (She then wasted no time notching her second, coming out in favor of price supports for New York dairy farmers.) Pop the corks...
