...decided not to remove the remainder of the growth. During another routine examination last March, doctors found no evidence of the first polyp but discovered a second small growth, attached to the intestinal wall by a stalk, and found traces of blood in two samples of the President's stool. Although this finding suggested that bleeding was occurring in the intestine which could signal the presence of a malignancy, doctors were not immediately alarmed; eating red meat also sometimes leads to traces of blood in stool. Indeed, after Reagan was placed on a restricted diet, the blood traces disappeared. Still...

...just got so sick, I thought I was going to die,” he relates. “Then the guy behind me threw open the door, because they can see I was sick.

When he did move about, he staggered. He played his keyboard mostly at will; often he waved his hands in the air, keeping no better time than the more enthusiastic members of his audience. The backing band, which at times boasted a string section of five and a brass section of three, had a professional conductor...

...stage, with the simple phrase “Welcome back,” he became the rock avatar of years past, shedding his suit coat for a conservative gray T-shirt with the phrase “No. 2.” On the other side of the stool-perched boom-box, Jason Loewenstein leered over the audience, dwarfing his bass, clearly thrilled to be back in the city where Sebadoh was based. Unable to contain his glee, he teetered back and forth swigging from his Heineken and keeping time with Barlow’s lead guitar. When...
