...then fuck it, it can't be done." Like a keypunch operator waiting for a computer to spew out solutions, Robbins must have sat hopefully in front of his Remington SL3 expecting that, if he hit a button here and there, the sophisticated machine would spit back a novel of answers. Still Life With Woodpecker does not bear...
...show Wednesday afternoon, and when a six-year-old got bored and started crying (too much R2-D2) he and his father walked out. So you can scoff, if you must. But you can also swallow a spoonful of sugar or say Supercalifragilistic-expialadocious. Go see it, spit spot. Very well. Carry...

Had last week's explosion occurred in a heavily populated area, the loss of life would have been awesome.

Walter Mondale, conscious of Garner's feelings, insisted in 1976 that Jimmy Carter let him be an "activist" vice president. "Activist" meant he didn't want to be treated like another former vice president and Mondale's political mentor, Hubert Humphrey, who found his way into the Oval Office as often...
