...race is going right to the wire, and it won't be pretty. Hollings has already called his opponent a "goddamn skunk," a "rascal" and a "reptile." The courteous Inglis has turned the outbursts into an issue; he is planning to ride across highways 26 and 85 in his trademark bright-red R.V. on what he's calling the "Expect More Tour." But South Carolinians will have to decide whether expecting more means they should elect a Senator who wants to bring home less...
Over the weekend, bargaining was so slow that delegates escaped to a nearby outlet mall to buy men's clothes and perfume. The 69-year-old Arafat rode a bicycle--the first time in 50 years, he told aides--around the grounds, his trademark checkered kaffiyeh flapping in the breeze, security agents following on a golf cart.

Cunningham and Moll were solid backup players, neither too loud and intrusive nor too quiet and listless. Except for a few fluffy notes on one of the flutes...
Surprisingly on their fourth effort, Cypress Hill moves away from their trademark drug preaching in favor of more traditional rap subjects: raining abuse on police officers and glorifying the hardships of the streets. This is clearly evident in their vicious opening song "Looking Through the Eye of a Pig" which purports that the lives of cops can be summarized as a string of violent murders, suicidal tendencies, drug abuse and unfaithful marriages. It is blatantly button-pushing, but the malevolent lyrics, coupled with the dark, piercing music, makes it a success...
