Reed takes his relaxed, California-mellow attitude even further on the title track, which, as a confessional, stands proudly alongside such earlier Reed classics as "Coney Island Baby" or "Street Hassle." The song opens with the rhythm section of Saunders and drummer Fred Maher chugging lightly along--as if the engine of Reed's GPZ motorcycle were building up to high gear--finally leading into the expansive guitar and synthesizer work of Reed and Peter Wood. The lyrics begin as a straightforward statement of Reed's new aims in life, but then suddenly veer off to follow Reed...
...seemed hardly coincidental to Costa Ricans that the road could serve to ferry troops and materiel northward in the event of an attack by Nicaragua. They were nonetheless willing to accept the offer until Under Secretary of Defense Fred Ikle injudiciously announced that hundreds of military personnel would be responsible for the project and that their presence "would be the first such joint exercises in Costa Rica." With a menacing Nicaragua urging it to remain on the side lines, Costa Rica began backing away from the road project, then canceled it. Two months ago, 30,000 Costa Ricans flocked into...
...ruling last week in Los Angeles, Hill likened a foot-high pile of allegations, suits and countersuits to the movie Rashomon, in which "every event is reported entirely differently by every person who saw it."

Fawcett was up to the acting demands of the part, but transforming the blond beauty into a convincingly battered wife was no easy task. "Her features are absolutely perfect," observes Makeup Artist Fred Blau. "It's like putting your foot through a Rembrandt." To make the star considerably less perfect, Blau darkened her eyes, created bruises on her cheeks, neck and arms, and added false, crooked teeth "to take away from her Pepsodent smile." The temporarily fallen angel had no regrets, however...
...American money markets closed for a long Memorial Day weekend, concerns about the jittery financial markets remained. C. Fred Bergsten, director of the Washington-based Institute for International Economics, said that the rumors about Manufacturers Hanover "show again how fragile and nervous the markets are." Moreover, the worries about banking are not limited to the U.S. They also involve the whole international financial system. Next week President Reagan and the heads of the world's leading industrial countries will hold their annual economic summit conference in London. After the banking troubles of the past two weeks, they have plenty...
