...what. So Brian Buckley won't be around to quarterback the Harvard offense this year. So the fans won't see a lot of shotgun snaps and 70-yd., zeppelin-like aerials. So Rich Horner may get a little lonely running fly patterns to distant yardlines that no one can reach. So what...

"I was really annoyed about the first album," Scholz told TIME's Jeff Melvoin. "My primary love of the sounds of rock...

...firm, manly handshake. He is remote-controlled by FM radio signals (there is a microphone in his control panel and a speaker in his head). Skora, in fact, had to apply for an FCC license to ensure that commands to Arok would not be competing with Led Zeppelin or the 1001 Strings for air waves...
