...sour it made our stomachs churn. And then there was the lamb... we think. It was so unremarkable, it didn't even taste like lamb, and we couldn't even identify it until we remembered what we had ordered. The worst offender to our systems, however, was the Kitfo, raw beef soaked in butter, and it looked even worse than it sounds. As the cow's blood finally seeped through the bread padding beneath it and onto the cooked portions of the platter, we felt it was time to stop our intimate pickings and just ask for the check...

...older than time--to who we are and how we behave." Any careful reader of Merrill's verse could have written an essay which included those lines; it seems a waste for Merrill to have written them himself. His stories about father, mother and cousins are useful for their raw data, which clear up obscure details in the poems; often, that's about...

...easy to see why, after all these years, Aerosmith is more popular than ever before. They have no need to rely on the superficial props of laser shows, revolving stages or video projectors to put on a show. Their music alone, raw and unleashed, more than suffices. Aerosmith remembers what most of today's rock and roll performers seem not yet to have discovered--that rock and roll comes before the performance, and should, in fact, inspire the performance. In a decade where one would be hard put to differentiate between all the Top 40 hits, Aerosmith is a reminder...
