...gets an inspiration for a story about two bodies turning up in a small Texas town. One is black, one white. Locke writes a fresh, clean drama about racial stereotypes and her belief that being black is easier in the South than in the North. It becomes her ticket to Sundance, and almost as soon as she drops her bags, two black professional actors--Alice and Lindo--tell her she doesn't know anything about the black experience they know...

This history is what makes the current rift so different--and so worrisome for Democrats. Gore and Clinton have scripted their union as a buddy movie ever since they bonded back in the summer of 1992. By joining the ticket, Gore, his wife Tipper and their four sunny blond kids lent the Clintons, already a little grimy after a long primary campaign about sex and drugs and draft dodging, some good, clean karma. Clinton and Gore have worked as closely as any team in memory. When the going got roughest last winter, Gore stood faithfully by, and even suggested...

Rock 'n' roll, in its first half-century, has produced any number of middle-aged superstars--even a smattering of grandfathers--but precious few genuine adults. Mick Jagger still can't get no satisfaction, even when charging over $300 a ticket. Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page and Robert Plant are still endlessly riding their stairway to heaven.

...Those carriers say it?s simple economics. When an average of 10 percent to 15 percent of ticket holders don?t show up, overbooking allows them to keep flights full (and airfares down). But Delta acknowledged Wednesday that it may be squeezing that penny a little too hard ? or simply miscalculating the no-show rate. New software that was supposed to fix that has apparently been delayed. But Delta also may have been right in suggesting that a few thousand bumpings do not a hated airline make. When it came to overall passenger complaints, Delta had the second-best record...

...several cities on one trip rather than make a straightforward round trip--two scenarios for which the airlines charge a premium rate. Hawaii can be a bargain too. Flights from Denver to Honolulu are booking at about $714, giving coupon holders a savings of as much as $154 per ticket...
