Stone and her husband Gary Stoloff (he runs a tight burrito business in the Garage) are both enthusiastic about the success of She Lives to Ride. The film has been picked up for national distribution, and Stone already has plans for two more documentaries, whose subjects she is not yet ready to discuss. Stone does not think her past has dictated her future: she says she had a positive experience at Harvard but admits that "I almost lost a job because I had Harvard on my resume." Refreshing simplicity and feminism with a brain: that is what we can expect...

This is music for people with raging hormones and short attention spans, for the sort of kid who, as his burrito rotates in the microwave, impatiently frets, "Three minutes is an eternity.

The spot featured dark-skinned island "natives" with painted faces, dancing in loincloths, flames belching from their mouths. African Americans immediately attacked Taco Bell's attempt at multicultural advertising. Oakland city council official Fred Ferguson described it as "plain and simple racist." The ad was withdrawn...

...Argentina -- all on this Spanish-named road in this Mediterranean-style town. On TV, I find, the news is in Mandarin; today's baseball game is being broadcast in Korean. For lunch I can walk to a sushi bar, a tandoori palace, a Thai cafe or the newest burrito joint (run by an old Japanese lady).
