Pius, in fact, is one of the modern church's problematic giants. His papacy as a whole was far more controversial than Pius XII's. He was the longest-serving Pope since St. Peter, reigning 32 years from 1846 to his death. He lost the Papal States, the Vatican's worldly kingdom. He promulgated two of Catholicism's most triumphal doctrines--the Immaculate Conception of the Virgin Mary and papal infallibility.

...JOHN GOODMAN--Crystal is the cyclops-pea, Goodman the yeti--as corporate monsters whose job it is to frighten kiddies.

Now when she sings, "Baby put your arms around me/ Aren't you glad that you have found me?" on the cacophonous Generator, she sounds like she knows what it is to feel undesirable. Elastica 2000 may not be as witty as Elastica 1995, but Frischmann's new vulnerability is winning enough to fend off VH1 has-been status for at least another five years...
