...good summary of the band, with hard rockers like "Stop" and the psychedelic meanderings of "Summertime Rolls." P4P is also represented at its best, though the selection of two clones like "Cursed Male" and "Hard Charger" is questionable. Also included are Jane's Addiction's Beatles-esque take on The Dead's "Ripple" and Porno for Pyros' Cable Guy soundtrack version of Lou Reed's "Satellite of Love," which sounds eerily like the Dead with Farrell on vocals.

Simple everyday tasks around the family take on aspects of college life as well. For example, the seniors out there may well find themselves accustomed to treating every conversation with a family member older than 25 as if it were part of the grueling interview process currently preoccupying most of their lives.

...addition, with more and more student services met through the fully automated system of Crimson Cash/Board Plus/Greenhouse Greenbacks/Whatever The Hell They Call It, students on break will have to resist the temptation to reach for a swipe card when wishing to open a door, take a Coke from the fridge or run a load of laundry. And there's no need to "term-bill" anything while at home; Mom's purse is only an arm's length away (too bad it's often accompanied...
