...fact, the fans of the Backstreet Boys and Morrissey are contained in the same demographic--lonely teenage girls, gay men and those looking to relive their youth through music. Moreover, the sorrow and disappointment felt by Morrissey's fans when The Smiths disbanded and Morrissey went solo in a twisted way rivals the anguish experienced by many a teenage girl just last week with the announced engagement of Backstreeters Brian and Kevin...

I felt the greatest sorrow, however, for the family of relief pilot Gamil el-Batouti. Besides having to deal with the loss of a husband and father, the family had to cope with the anguish of a name destroyed by unproved accusations of mass murder and suicide. The ideal situation would have been to avoid reaching any conclusions before a thorough investigation of the crash had been completed...
