...worst part about that random hook-up, the abiding regret which neither liquor nor denial can purge, is that while not looking (the better part of that night was spent not looking), a lady friend downloaded Snood onto the computer. For the uninitiated, Snood is a silly game of cartoon canons that burp out cuddly-faced symbols, a game which so many call “infectious” but I call “incurable...
Like extraordinary fashion accessories, poodles with topiary cuts and tracts of shaved skin on legs and haunches trot alongside their owners. A spaniel in a shiny pink satin snood waits mournfully in a cage. The dog days of summer are in full swing in Britain, a time when canine events are staged almost nonstop throughout the country. At this year's East of England Championship Show, dogs with show names reminiscent of wartime coded messages - Mariglen Force the Pace with Becksett, Sequentia Reflection in Arabin - compete for titles and trophies.

...Arts" grant. The theme, "America, Where Have You Come From, Where Are You Bound?," is to be realized on the wall of a Washington office building. A Phoenix man thinks his father's handmade place-mat menus would be appropriate.

Mom (Frances Sternhagen) is patrolling the house in her robe and bunny snood, calling "Wakey uppy! Wakey uppy!" in the tinny cascades of Texas motherhood. Sis (Linda Cook) is chatting on the phone with her boyfriend and threatening to "devote my entire life to crisis counseling for the holiday-impaired. My mother can be the poster child." And young Jeremy (Christopher Fields), just back from...
Artzybasheff's art is dominated by his famous anthropomorphic machines and his reified visions of various pretensions, neuroses and complexes in sometimes nightmarish forms. But just about anything could set off Artzy's imagination. A Nude with a Snood is his interpretation of an unfathomable phrase overheard at a cocktail party; a primitive piece of sculpture called Connecticut African came from bits of wood picked up in the barn of his Connecticut farm. Artzybasheff's deep hate of tyranny is exemplified in the show by the extraordinary swastika shapes into which he twisted his caricatures...
