Once, as a child, I scooped up the fattest tadpoles I could find in the local brook. I squished them under my thumb so I could watch the entrails squirt out. I recently learned that Jeffery Dahmer had done the same kind of thing when he was young.

Actually, the above shoud read COULDN'T; I didn't notice it until now.

Here begins yet another Pat McCurdy story to bore 99% of you, since you
probably have no clue as to WHO this guy is.  Just be warned that anyone
who travels to Mwaukee in the future will be dragged to one of his shows to
be Enlightened.

Y'see at his last show, he was giving away various X-mas gifts to audience
members.  One such gift was this little Virgin Mary statue thing that had
a bleeding heart.  Later, another gift was a brass Jesus wall-hanging thing
that also had a bleeding heart.  Pat commented on the whole heart motif of
the night, then adopted a gravely, New York-accented voice and said "Cause
when they met, it was moider."  I was one of the very few who quickly
caught the reference and began laughing like a fool.  I then went on to
recite Max's introduction from the opening credits and delve into other
"Hart to Hart" lore.  However, for the life of me, I CANNOT remember Max's
last name.  Oh, the shame....

*The dog's name was "Freeway."

EVERYONE knows that.

Hey, now -- easy there, Kemo Sabe.  Remember, there is nobody on this group,
or in the entire world, who has not made decisions that they later regretted.
Except maybe Ralph Lauren, and one or two gossip collumnists.  As for the
pointless violence angle, remember that while there is a great number of
senseless acts of aggression going on at any given moment, there is an equal,
or greater, number of senseless acts of kindness and wonder.  They just don't
get on the news very much.

Here is Andrew J. Solberg's meaningless act of niceness for this week:

This week I was going shopping, and the nearest grocery store to my house is
the Apple Tree.  As some of you no doubt know, workers at this chain of stores
are currently on a nationwide strike over wages and other employee benefits.
I saw a couple of picketers as I rolled into the parking lot.  They were 
offering leaflets to entering customers, but nobody stopped or rolled down
their windows.  The strikers looked pretty depressed, particularly since it
didn't seem that they were doing much good.

I stopped the car and asked what was going on.  They guy told me they were
on strike.  I parked the car in the next slot and went over to talk.  The
guy explained the situation to me for maybe ten minutes.  I scanned the
literature and listened.  When he was done, I said,  "Well, you convinced
me.  I'm going to Fiesta.  Good luck."  I got back in the car and drove
off, and actually did go to Fiesta, which has much better cold cuts anyway.

A small blow for happiness, but imagine the awesome impact of billions of
tiny acts of good-naturedness occurring all at once -- particularly during
the Christmas season!  I'd imagine that they would more than cancel out the
hate and bitterness that we are capable of.

Hope this helps.  P.S. I'm not lying.

feature a "hippy-dippy-chic" motif, to quote one Italian
fag designer (note to the putatively ironic:  if he WASN'T
an Italian *fag* designer, he WOULDN'T be allowed in the
dressing room with Linda Evangelista and Cindy Crawford and
Claudia Schiffer, [*] so don't even THINK of expressing your
envious dismay at the state of Modern Fashion).  The word
"groovy" may come back, therefore, but through the usual
channels of overreaching wannabes (in Fr., "le Bourgeoisie")
and social fear, rather than some democratic (or faux
leaderly) requiem.

[*] and that hot, black babe (*not* Iman, who's tout-le-out
since the Star Trek episode) from the George Michael video
(the one that doesn't feature his butt, except as it's
implied by his face).

P.P.S.  Sometimes the clothes do not make the man.

P.P.P.S.  Hippy fashion is the one sort of clothing
that does not scale down and out from 5-11, 28-20-26
to any sort of J.C. Penney format.  Therefore the
sixties will be even shorter in '93 than they were
in '67-72.

P.P.P.P.S.  Somehow, these morons have included Platform
Shoes in the mix, deifying anachronism...expect a rise in
emergency-room reports of carpal-buttal syndrome...

P.P.P.P.P.S.  Usually I boil all of this down (with the
help of my editor at Elsevier Press) to the proper one-line
followup, but it's Christmas and I have a lot of toys to
deliver around the world.  Don't let the antlers hit you in
the ass on the way out.

Right number, but it's an Article not a section
