...says Decker. “It’s something I do for fun. It’s not something I’d like to make a career out of.” She lights a cigarette and begins to explain, somewhat drowsily, her modeling career, her brief stint in the Harvard Band, where (if anywhere) her modeling career is going next and how that fits into her I-banking plans...

Like the original, this Brian doesn't stint on the melodrama: there's a wrenching scene of a dying Piccolo kissing his sleeping children goodbye; when he gets the bad news from his doctor, a thunderstorm is raging. The cues are a touch more sophisticated (e.g., the sound track uses Simon and Garfunkel's mournful Bookends Theme, rather than cloying orchestration), but the improved production values have mostly to do with advances in TV.

...wonder what Radiohead are doing, releasing their third album in slightly over a year, particularly after a three-year hiatus between their triumphant OK Computer and the genre (and possibly fan-base) busting Kid A. And if Kid A alienated many during its stint as a bestseller, the companion album Amnesiac may have scared off even more with long periods of apparent downtime between opaque off-kilter songs exemplified by the single “Pyramid Song” and scarcely a decent hook on the album. By most counts then, this is hardly the ideal time to release...

...mark looms large for the Raiders in net, where junior Jason Lefevre, sophomore Dave Cann, and freshman Steve Silverthorn are competing for playing time.
