Another example of DOS's inability to wax political or philosophical arises in "Reality." Although it has a catchy chorus of "Is this reality?" it wanders into poetic nonsense with "Cause I like to flow like a log down the stream." Although the group's effort to transcend typical dance music in a few of their songs deserves praise, their results...
Third is the idea that the examinations would come in for grading in a more or less steady flow. Not likely. Were you at study card day last September? Hours from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. We should "reasonably" expect a steady stream of cards at Memorial Hall. Imagine my surprise when by 2 p.m., less than one half of the cards I expected were in. You all (or a lot of you) saw the result. People put off unpleasant things...
...foolish play golf in 30 degrees weather, but Bill Clinton needed some release -- nine quick holes at the Little Rock Country Club last Wednesday. In jeans and a windbreaker, Clinton raced around the course, offering a running (and occasionally profane) commentary on his erratic game and long stream-of-consciousness rambles about health care and tax policy, two of the issues he hopes to master well enough to carry him to the White House. As he recharged himself physically, his mind remained squarely on the prize, and especially on how exactly he intends...
First, Ojemann tested his patients' verbal intelligence using a written exam. Then, during neurosurgery -- which was performed under a local anesthetic -- he asked them to name aloud a series of objects found in a steady stream of black-and-white photos. Periodically, he touched different parts of the brain with an electrode that temporarily blocked the activity of that region. (This does not hurt because the brain has no sense of pain.) By noting when his patients made mistakes, the surgeon was able to determine which sites were essential to naming...
Then it occurred to me: I've become so conditioned by packaged candidates and manufactured candidacies that I generally view a politician negatively if he doesn't conform to this norm. As Brown spoke, his disorganization soon gave way to a comfortable stream of messages. So what if he had no introduction? It didn't matter--Brown needed no gimmicky anecdote (like Arkansas Gov. Bill Clinton's one about the cab driver) to start his speech. He spoke directly to the audience and his face revealed startling sincerity...
