...surprising that this logic is new to the group. McNeely privately complains that some of the guys are committing the ultimate faux pas, talking to each other, across the stage, during their numbers. They make mistakes: Voices crack, chords go out of tune and Liang has to signal one of his earnest-looking friends to make more of an effort to cut off with the rest off the group, since he's breaking later than everyone else and sticking out. On a shuttle bus provided by their clients, the boys are already preparing for calypso night at the Fly Club...
...headache for the U.S. "Despite Kashmir, there had been some optimism that dialogue between Nawaz and [India?s Prime Minister Atal Bihari] Vajpayee could improve relations, but a military government in Pakistan is likely to be a lot more belligerent toward India," says Rahman.

The world economy continues to pick up. There?s no significant inflation yet, but it apparently bears watching...
...crime novel by Lew McCreary, The Minus Man tells the story of mild and childlike Vann Siegert (Bottle Rocket's Owen Wilson), an ostensibly kind, offenseless man. He's so nauseatingly likable and law-abiding (even when driving onto a deserted highway he makes a point of using a signal and looking both ways), you'd never suspect him of having any violent tendencies. He's perfect. Eerily perfect. All right, you guessed it--he's a serial killer; a bona fide psycho (how could someone who uses their blinker on a deserted highway not be?). The disarming smile that...
