This weekend the aforementioned "Saving Private Ryan" will likely win the Oscar for Best Picture. But if its director had grown up in today's world, I have to wonder if the film would ever have been made. Growing up outside of Phoenix, Ariz., Steven Spielberg didn't have many friends and was often picked on by his peers. He does not look back fondly on his days in the schoolyard, and it is unfortunate that, as a boy, he had such a difficult time.

...revolving cast of appraisers, always happy for a little free publicity, Jussel sets up shop for one day in an arena large enough to handle the crush of 10,000 faithful, many of whom line up the night before, with overflowing shopping bags and boxes in tow. In Phoenix, Ariz., two years ago, the crowds were so big that the fire marshal shut the doors before noon. Once inside, everyone gets two items appraised for free, but only 15 to 20 visitors, those with the most interesting pieces and accompanying stories to tell, make...
