...Adam, Phil and the star of "Hardball," Chris Matthews, while they watched their own TV show in Charlie's Kitchen about a week before. After too much snow stalled their trip home to New York, they found respite in the local beer and triple cheeseburgers of this venerable Cambridge establishment. Jenn Hyman '02 and myself just happened to be sitting next to them as they explained some of the nuances of network television to two ignorant media devotees. Chris Matthews argued with Dick Gephardt on TV in front of us while prodding us about how his St. Alban...
Finally, it's time for Mankind--an ugly, animal-like wrestler, whose face hides behind a leather mask. Almost neolithic, he proves that instinct is more important than intelligence. During the fight with his former best friend Al Snow, Mankind is reluctant. At one point, when he's about to perform his most effective and deadly move--where he pulls a dirty sock puppet out of his pants and crams it down his victim's throat--Mankind hesitates. He decides against it, tucking Mr. Socko (the filthy stocking's official name) back down into his crotch. Like some stupid animal...

...bigger part is starting to remember why I have always wanted to teach and work with families. It's exciting actually to have a conversation with my little sib and spend an afternoon together doing nothing at all. It's incredible to share a Saturday morning on a snow-covered basketball court in Central Square challenging her to another game of Around-the-World, without looking at my watch first or stifling a yawn...
...Hampshire weather was conspiring to freeze Campaign 2000 in its tracks--stranding Alan Keyes in Detroit so he couldn't celebrate his Iowa surprise, waylaying John McCain's bus as it plowed through the snow--but Al Gore at least was on fire. He stayed in Iowa barely long enough to thank voters there before Air Force Two was in the air, heading to Manchester for a predawn arrival, just ahead of the storm. By 7 he was ensconced at a local diner, giving nine television interviews in an hour and a half, before the campaign entourage dragged itself back...
