Re: 11-28-01 editionThe banner line should read “Student’s Sculpture removed from Art Display”, not student’s penis removed–for obvious reasons. From a female point of view, our male and female parts have been used for sculpture since 500 BC, why not now, even if circumsized. The sculpture itself has no position […]

Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show
Yesterday a male co-worker asked me (the staff nutritionist) what I thought about the editorial recently published in the Asheville-Citizen Times on the Victoria’s Secret fashion show aired on television. Before I even started reading, he told me he thought the author had “gone too far”. With that information, I […]

Angel Heart Combines Noir Genre With Horror
First off, a letter from the people. I got this from a certain person whom we’ll refer to as “laycd.” Laycd writes: “You should review ‘Iron Monkey’ for all those ‘Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon’ fans….” Ok. I’ll do that next week. This week, I was too poor and sick to […]
