...Nashvillians cringed in embarrassment. After Boner's divorce from Betty and marriage to Peel, the city's mortification peaked when the Boners appeared on Phil Donahue's TV show to discuss, among other matters, the mayor's alleged sexual prowess. Boner also played harmonica while a rambunctious Peel sang Rocky Top. Donahue rightly charged that Boner's conduct came "very close to giving the finger" to Nashville. And Nashville seemed ready by last week to reciprocate. Unfortunately, Boner's constituents have found that the city charter fails to provide for recall. Unless he decides to resign -- or collapses...
...felt like it was pulsing and growing and WARRRrrhh. Every once in a while they would shine a flashlight. Every time they did, bugs would scurry on the walls. And that was no hallucination. They brought this woman in who had to be carried in. And the shaman sang over her. La-la-la-la-la-la-la. Jamorino heh-heh-heh. The Indian thing, right. La-la-la- la-la-la-luh. It was a healing song -- though I am sure that the woman is no longer with us. Then the guy explained to us that we might...
...delegates in Oslo were virtue's choir, of course, and they sang beautifully. If there was a hater among them, he kept his secret and did not stain the refulgence. Virtually the only controversy organized itself in a division between objectivists and subjectivists. The subjectivists (poets and moralists) looked for the seeds of hatred within the human heart. The objectivists (economists, historians, lawyers) dismissed such vaporings and located the causes of hatred in the conditions of peoples' lives. "Hard, visible circumstance defines reality," said John Kenneth Galbraith. In the past 45 years, he pointed out, no one has been killed...
...Hammerin' Hank Aaron (the M.C., added later, stands for Master of Ceremonies, rapspeak for band leader). After a two-year hitch in the Navy, Hammer borrowed some start-up cash from a couple of A's outfielders to launch Bustin' Records. He couldn't play an instrument, and he sang with more enthusiasm than finesse, but his first album, 1988's Let's Get It Started, produced three Top 10 singles. And those hits have just kept on coming. The proof, he'd say, is in the numbers. If Hammer's music is Rap Lite, it's still a heady...
...masses, where it belonged. Midnight Cowboy, which won an Oscar for best picture of 1969, was rated X, and so were other lauded films, such as Medium Cool, Performance and The Devils. Explicit lyrics have been in the pop mainstream since the late '60s; the Jefferson Airplane sang "Up against the wall, m f s," and they sang it on The Dick Cavett Show...
