...would retreat to darkened movie theaters in the hope that The Blair Witch Project or Scream would offer the scare that I was looking for. But I was living in the eerie center of a real life ghost story the whole time, and never appreciated it. So when I took the opportunity to return home this past weekend, I was determined to maintain a vigilant awareness of all the ghosts and ghouls that would cross my path. If Washington Irving could see them, and Tim Burton could see them, I certainly wasn't going to let them evade...
...course, is why everyone thinks this is a good idea. Think about it for a sec. Sure, we'll watch the first couple of weeks, but who's going to listen to a band when we know how lame the members were to begin with? Would any girl still scream at the Backstreet Boys if she watched videotapes of the boys milking cows or shoveling manure out in a Nebraska cornfield?

Or just listen to "Search and Destroy" on the Stooge's Raw Power album: this is one of the most earnest and moving performances recorded. And so it's a total pleasure when Iggy follows up "Raw Power" with "Search and Destroy" tonight...
...Incirlik, an isolated Turkish base 444 miles southeast of Istanbul, the Gulf War has never really ended. Most mornings some two dozen American F-15s and F-16s scream skyward, along with E-3 and RC-135 command planes and KC-135 tankers to keep them safely flying and fueled. An hour later, in a delicately choreographed ballet 400 miles east, the warplanes take their final sips of gas before turning south toward Iraq. Their mission: to show the Iraqi military how impotent Saddam is in protecting Iraqi sovereignty--and them. Maybe this will foment rebellion...
