The hateful andloathsome Baptist heresy,which wars against the wholechurch, was compounded lessthan 100 years ago when thesepeople adopted the premillennialdispensationalistnonsense with its so-calledpre-Tribulation Raptureidea. These blind and damnedheretics also believe that theJews are still in a covenantwith God, even after they rejectedJesus Christ, a Son ofGod. Your writer foolishlyfailed to expose this Left Behindsatanic nonsense for thedamned garbage that it is.Name WithheldAllergy HilarityI was just reading yourfront-page story, “Left Behind”(July 8), all aboutTim LaHaye. I was readingsomething on page 36 — afriend of his named RonJames and his wife Shirleywere reminiscing about whenthey knew LaHaye yearsago. There was somethingJames said about LaHayehaving an allergy and hedrove a Renault and he alwayshad a roll of toilet paperon the seat beside him.When I read that, Icouldn’t help but startlaughing. Years ago I workedfor North American Aviationin Los Angeles. When Ifirst started to work there in1956, I came into the engineeringoffice there — hugeplace, rows and rows ofdesks. The funniest thing, alot of people had rolls oftoilet paper on their desksor in their desk drawers, andmy boss had a roll of toiletpaper. “What in the heckis that for?” I asked him.“Oh, we all use it.” They’duse it for Kleenex to blowtheir noses or to wipe theirdesks off or whatever. Thestationery crib, where wegot paper, pencils, pens,and things like that, theyalso gave out rolls of toiletpaper, so pretty soon I hada roll of toilet paper on mydesk.Bob<strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong>John Edwards AndOutrageous LawsuitsThanks for the revealing articlein the July 8 “CityLights,” “Pay It and Go Onwith Your Life.” Your readersmay now understandwhy we businessmen complainabout trial lawyers beingshakedown artists. Thesad reality is that the littleguy — used-car buyers —will end up paying more aslegal fees will be passed onto consumers.Presidential candidateJohn Kerry recently pickedhis running mate, John Edwards,another trial lawyerwho made his millions bysuing businesses. Mr. Edwardsadmits to receivingmillions of dollars in campaigncontributions fromhis fellow trial lawyers.While John Edwards mightnot stoop to the tactics of extortiondescribed in yourarticle, it is a fact that he hasworked actively and successfullyin the Senate to stopmeasures that would limitthe damage wrought by frivolousand outrageous lawsuits.Voters take note.Bob SpauldingScripps RanchFish A Little, Find AClientAbout your article “Pay Itand Go On with Your Life”(“City Lights,” July 8).I received the new issueof the telephone directorythe other day. An ad gluedto the cover of the YellowPages caught my eye. It wasan attorney’s advertisementproclaiming right at the top“Accident & Injury.” I threwthe postcard-sized ad awayonly to discover the samefull-page ad on the inside ofthe cover. I thumbed a littlefurther on and another attorney’sdouble-sided adpopped out. It lay openwith a handy foldout, easyreference, file heading “AccidentAttorney.” It stated,“Seriously Injured…NeedHelp?” There was also anattorney’s full-cover ad onthe back.

C I T Y L I G H T S C I T Y L I G H T S C I T Y L I G H T S2 <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Reader</strong> July 15, 2004An archive of City Lights stories can be searched on the Internet at <strong>San</strong><strong>Diego</strong><strong>Reader</strong>.comCashing in A controversial member ofthe administration of ousted Democratic governorGray Davis hasturned up on the payrollof the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> StateUniversity Foundation.Rudy Murillo — onetimeaide to ex-congressmanLionel Van Deerlin,a Democrat, and ex–<strong>San</strong><strong>Diego</strong> city councilmanRudy MurilloUvaldo Martinez,a Republican— worked asLynn Schenkspokesman for the U.S. Immigration and NaturalizationService before picking up a job withthen-governor Davis as executive director ofthe state Commission of the Californias, across-border international-relations group.During his time with Martinez, Murillofound himself enmeshed in a city credit cardspending scandal; he also had his car impoundedfor not paying $846 in parking finesand back registration fees. In November 1986,Martinez pled guilty to two felony counts formisusing the cards and was forced from office.Murillo was investigated by the districtattorney’s office but never charged.Besides his work for Davis, Murillo had hismost recent brush with notoriety last yearwhen his name turned up on a list of campaigncontributors to Perris, California, citycouncilraces. Allegedly, those contributorswere later reimbursed by Republican politicalconsultant Colin Flaherty, the ex-husband ofVan Deerlin’s daughter and a longtime Murillochum. (Years before, Flaherty had worked as afreelancer for <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> magazine and the<strong>Reader</strong>, as well as being employed by the DailyTranscript.) The alleged developer cash-launderingscheme, involving a number of Flaherty’sfriends and associates, resulted in a$76,000 fine levied against Flaherty by thestate’s Fair Political Practices Commission.Both Flaherty and Murillo denied the allegations.Murillo said that the $200 check that theFPPC said he had received from Flahertywithin a few days of making his campaign contributionswas not a reimbursement.“It mighthave been for theater tickets, it might havebeen for anything,”he told the Union-Tribunelast year.“From time to time I have lent moneyto Colin and vice versa. I told that to investigatorsand told them they were barking up thewrong tree.” Last October, Flaherty defaultedon the fine, which he had failed to contest.In a telephone interview this week,Murillo — a close associateof Lynn Schenk,ex–chiefof staff to Davis — said hiswork at the SDSU Foundationinvolved attemptingto arrange a largegrant from other largefoundations to supportan educational and academicdevelopment effortin conjunction withmaquiladora plants in Tijuana. “This is a follow-upfrom something that I was doing forthe governor at the comission,”he said. In additionto other functions, the foundation playsa major role in managing hundreds of millionsof dollars of grants from federal and privatesources for university research and monitoringthe university’s conflict-of-interestreporting.Toni AtkinsSummer school <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> city councilwomanToni Atkins, an avowed foe of MayorDick Murphy’s controversialstrong-mayor charterinitiative, has left townfor a month.“I will be outof the office from July 4,2004, through July 31,2004, attending theKennedy School of Governmentat Harvard University,”she wrote in ane-mail to a constituent.“While I may be checking my e-mail periodically,I will not be able to do so daily.” AideJeff Gattas says the trip, approved by Atkins’sfellow councilmembers, is being funded by ascholarship from Fannie Mae, the big mortgageprovider ... It must be election time again.Democratic congresswoman Susan Davis wasrecently given the conservative Navy League’sannual “Robert M. Thompson Award for OutstandingCivilian Leadership” for her “workon defense issues.” She shared the prize withright-wing Virginia Republican representativeEd Schrock, a big military-spending advocateand staunch backer of the war in Iraq. Meanwhile,Davis is out with a campaign-fundraisingappeal to local supporters:“While I questionthe direction of the war, I’ve stood up for theneeds of our military families and been theirchampion. In the people’s House, our voiceshave been muzzled, but I will continue to beyour voice. My aggressive advocacy has won memany friends — but also some powerful foes.I need your help to make sure I can return toCongress to continue my efforts to make ournation’s policies consistent with our values.”Legal eagles Rancho <strong>San</strong>ta Fe–basedplaintiffs’ lawyer Bill Lerach picked up mostof the big ink in last Sunday’s New York Times,but a name out of <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong>’s legal past alsosurfaced.

Charles Dickenswrote the classic. <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong>, going tothe dickens financially, could write a sequel,Inflated Expectations.The city got into its pensionmess because, amongmany unwise things, it hadthe expectation that the stockmarketboom of the late1990s would continue. It alsohad the expectation that thecitizenry — and buyers of citybonds — would never knowthe books were cooked tocover up the deliberate underfundingof the pensionprogram.The city isn’t chastened. Itstill expects that, long-term,it can make 8 percent a yearon its investment portfolio.(The county expects to make8.25 percent annually.) Realistssay the expectation shouldbe 4.5 to 6.5 percent. But if theexpected return were lowered,then the city and its employeeswould have to put evenmore into the pot each year,and government serviceswould be slashed even further.Alas,realism has few politicalallies.But this is no time for selfdelusion.Federal investigatorsare probing into how the cityhid its massive pension deficitfrom bond investors. To balancebudgets bloated by corporatewelfare, the city foryears made inadequate contributionsto the pensionfund. To do so, it had to getpermission from the <strong>San</strong><strong>Diego</strong> City Employees’ RetirementSystem board, madeup primarily of city employeesand their union representatives.The board approvedthe underfunding, as long asbenefits would be boostedsharply. Now the city mustput $200 million a year intothe pot until 2011 just to remainat 67 percent funded.Last week, Mayor DickMurphy proposed that thecity help fix the problem byselling at least $200 million ofpension obligation bonds andby changing the compositionof the pension board so thatoutsiders would have a slightmajority over employees andtheir union leaders.But Murphy does not proposeto lower the retirementbenefits now promised to retirees.Nor does he address inany way the corporate welfarethat led to the plundering ofthe pension fund. Piling ondebt and dodging basic reforms“just hands the problemto whoever takes themayor’s job in 2008,”says DiannShipione, the whistleblowingpension-boardmember who brought thecancer to the public’s attention.“Thereality is there isn’ta solution. The city has overpromised.”Bankruptcy maybe the only option, she says.One of the best reformswould be to stop overestimatingfuture investment returns.The city’s actuary, RickRoeder, estimates that if theassumed yearly returndropped to 7.5 percent from 8percent, the city’s deficitwould grow from the current$1.16 billion to $1.38 billion,and the funded ratio woulddecline from 67.2 percent to63.2 percent.Roeder suggests that theprojected return be droppedto 7.75 percent. I interviewedthree members of the pension-reformcommittee. TimothyConsidine believes that8 percent is realistic. RobertButterfield goes along with aninitial 7.75 percent, but “weneed to go with that figure fora year or two and adjustdownward again if we haveto,”he says. However,WilliamSheffler is more conservative.“Realistically, expectationsshould not be all that high,”he says, even though mostcities go with 8 percent.There are compelling reasonsfor pension funds to beconservative. Stocks andbonds thrive in an atmosphereof lower interest rates.continued on page 4Contact Don Bauderat 619-881-2395 ordon.bauder@mac.comILLUSTRATION BY NEAL OBERMEYER
C I T Y L I G H T S C I T Y L I G H T S C I T Y L I G H T SLet HimBreak RocksBy Joe DeeganThe online publication of “Son of Sam”killer David Berkowitz’s journals has a<strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> man on the hot seat.“Wilson,”nothis real name, says he turneddown interviews by Today’sKatie Couric, the Denver Post,and the New York Daily News.He agreed to talk for thisstory on condition that hisreal name not be used.The media’s recent interestin Berkowitz came in responseto his early June parolehearing. Seven years ago,Wilson wrote to Berkowitz atthe Sullivan Correctional Facilityin Fallsburg, New York.Wilson, a devout Christian,had learned of a 1988 jailhouseconversion byBerkowitz to Christianity.The two men have written toeach other ever since. As partof their correspondence,Berkowitz sends Wilson entriesfrom a journal he keepsin his cell.In 1998, Berkowitz’s journalentries began appearingon the website www.forgivenforlife.com.The site calls itselfthe official homepage ofDavid Berkowitz.“This pageis hosted by House upon theRock Christian Church in<strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong>, CA. We host thispage because we truly believethat David is sincerely sorryfor the pain he has caused inthe past, and that he has trulyrepented and become a newperson in Jesus Christ.” Accordingto <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> Countyrecords, Wilson foundedHouse upon the Rock ChristianChurch in 1993.As Son of Sam, Berkowitzkilled six people andwounded seven more in aspate of shootings in NewYork City in 1976 and 1977.One of the more notoriousaspects of the case was his involvementin a satanic groupduring his murderous rampage.Berkowitz also kept asatanic “bible”in his cell duringthe earliest years of hisincarceration.But at the beginning of hisjournal in 1998, in his secondentry, Berkowitz writes,“I amdoing my best to reach outwith the Gospel to America’steenagers, millions of whomare without guidance and arebeing swept away by Satan’sdevices. I am to teach othersabout the dangers of gettinginvolved in the occult, nomatter how harmless it mayseem to them. I am to warnabout satanism and explainto others how God will helpthem and will give them away of escape, should theyhave fallen victim to satanicpowers, as I [did] in my tragicpast.”In addition to the journals,a link to a 1997 video biographyof Berkowitz appearson the website. Wilsonhas penned a review of thevideo on Amazon.com.“[Thevideo] shows that it was morethan a man doing thesekillings.... [The] killings werethe work of Satan, usingDavid as a willing pawn to dohis evil deeds. Though beingduped, David has acknowledgedhis guilt and is sorrywww.forgivenforlife.comSon of Sam police artist sketchfor his past.... As David explains,it was the work of anorganized satanic cult tocause chaos in the streets ofNew York, and they were successfulin doing that. He goeson to explain that there aremany such satanic cults operatingtoday in America andthroughout the world tobring about mayhem, destruction,murder, and anarchy.He says they are very realand explains that the onlyway he himself has escapedthis cult was to become aborn-again Christian.”In an entry to his journalon May 30, 2004, Berkowitzrefers to an unknown womanwho came to visit him inprison. A guard told him sheNovember 4, 2003, journal entryappeared to be “unstable”andlooked as though she were“possessed by something.”Hewrites,“Thus with Satan’s arrowsflying at me from everydirection, I continue to walkwith confidence and not beintimidated.”House upon the RockChristian Church, sponsor ofthe journals, does not have aphysical location. But Wilsondenies that it is an onlinechurch only. He calls it a“house church” that assemblesin the homes of differentmembers each Sunday. He refusesto indicate the congregation’ssize and says he is notits pastor.As to the professionby which Wilson makes hisliving, he would say only thathe is in business for himself.In March of this year, theChristian radio program Focuson the Family, broadcastingnationally from ColoradoBerkowitz, 1977Berkowitz mugshots, March 31, 2003Springs, aired a series of threeprison interviews with DavidBerkowitz by psychologistBill Maier. (The Berkowitzwebsite provides a link tothese interviews.)According to Wilson, thepublic is concerned that thetaped interviews purchasedby Focus on the Family providemoney to the formermurderer. People have accusedWilson, too, he says, ofprofiting from the sale of thetapes, since the tapes appearon the website he created. Butall moneys from sale of thetapes go to Focus on the Family— legitimately, he contends— to cover the program’scosts in producing theinterviews.Wilson’s disclaimers ofprofiteering go further.“I donot get paid by the church,”he says.“And the website hascontinued on page 12<strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Reader</strong> July 15, 2004 3

In 2000, stocksplunged into the secondworstbear market since theGreat Depression. Because theFederal Reserve was bringingdown interest rates to fight recession,bonds continued tothrive.

He was voteddown. Now, as head of DenaliAdvisors, he has the county asa client. All he’ll say is that heis conservative,“and the currentboard is workingconscientiously.”Doug McCalla, chief investmentofficer for the city’ssystem, says the fund made8.35 percent a year for the pastfive years and 10.63 percentfor the past ten. It’s consistentlyranked among the betterperformers and is now inthe top 1 percent, he says.But both Shipione andJim Gleason, a 12-year pensionboard member, challengethe touted numbers, particularlysince the fund is 53 percentin stocks, 37 in fixed instruments(mainly bonds),and 10 in real estate. “I havenever been able to fathomhow they come up with that 8percent or more, and I haven’tthought others on the boardunderstood it either,” saysGleason, suspecting “funnyaccounting.”“Something doesn’t addup,” says Shipione. The citysays its deficit is a result ofstock-market losses,“then wehear we’re doing great in thestock market.” It cries out fora comprehensive audit, shesays.Mercer Investment Consultingsuggests that <strong>San</strong><strong>Diego</strong> could use one of twofigures: 6.95 percent a year byone method and 7.02 by asecond. But in the secondcase, Mercer says <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong>could add almost a full percentagepoint because it selectsprofessional moneymanagers. However, studiesshow that 60 to 90 percent ofmoney managers consistentlyunderperform the market. Inmy opinion, if anything,something should be subtracted.Mercer won’t comment.“Some people are betterat picking managers thanothers,” says McCalla, whoalso says he has built “a bettermousetrap”that permits himto move money from one sectorto another quickly. Butthat’s challengeable, becausehe can only boost the equityportion, for example, from 53percent to 56 percent, andmaking such allocationswitches is a tough game.Overall, for any pensionplan like the city’s, an expectedreturn “north of 7 percentis not defensible,” saysHokanson. ■Break rockscontinued from page 3never produced even onecent of income, as we turndown all offers of donationsand do not sell anything.”The website asks visitors notto make contributions.House upon the Rock’smotivation in maintaining aDavid Berkowitz homepageand publishing his journal isdifferent, says Wilson. Awriter to the church’s e-mailaddress, identifying herselfonly as Nancy, gives a clue tothis incentive. She refers tothe video biography ofBerkowitz that the websitecalls “Son of Hope.”“This past week,” writesthe e-mailer,“I was talking toa Sunday school student ofmine who had shared that itwas hard for her to believethat God would care forsomeone like her. By thegrace of God, I recalled seeingthe video somewhere andwas able to share bits andpieces of its testimony withher. She was really interestedand wanted to know moreabout what God had done ina serial killer’s life. I promisedthat I would try to find a copyof the testimony and foundthis website. I watched thevideo again and realized thatthe message of hope in Christ
C I T Y L I G H T S C I T Y L I G H T S C I T Y L I G H T S C I T Y L I G H T S C I T Y L I G H T Sis what a lot of our youth arehungry for.”The video and radiobroadcasts of Berkowitz’s testimony,as well as his journals,are especially helpful, saysWilson, “for people who despairor get despondent. Theprograms tell you there’shope for every person, nomatter what they’ve done.”In the third of the Focuson the Family interviews,Berkowitz underscores thislesson. He begins by admittingthe terrible things he’sdone. Then he brings up thecase of Saul of Tarsus, whobecame Paul the Apostle. Saulpersecuted Christians, killingmany of them. A Jew like heis, says Berkowitz, Saul alsowas redeemed by JesusChrist. Speaking as if he wereJesus, Berkowitz proclaims,“If I can forgive DavidBerkowitz, I can forgive you,too.”But not everyone is in aforgiving mood.According toa June 11 article by Joe Mahoneyin the New York DailyNews, Michael Lauria, whosedaughter Donna died atBerkowitz’s hands in 1976,asks, “Is he saying we shouldforgive him for life? Forgetabout it! He’s telling theworld:‘Ha, ha! I’m in jail, andI got a website.’ He shouldstay in a 4-by-6 cell and rot.”The Daily News reports in thesame article that NeysaMoskowitz, mother ofBerkowitz’s victim StacyMoskowitz, is angry that themurderer is becoming acelebrity in prison. “Theytreat him like a little prince,”she says. “If I were the warden,he wouldn’t be allowedto do anything. Let him breakrocks or whatever they do.”New York governorGeorge Pataki came outstrongly against parole forBerkowitz, which is unlikely.“It’s very upsetting to me thatSon of Sam has a website,”theDaily News’ Mahoney reportsPataki saying in a June 15story. “We’re going to lookinto it.”The article goes on toquote New York State Departmentof CorrectionalServices spokesman JimFlateau. “We don’t allow inmatesto conduct a businessfrom jail.” After admittingthat a United States SupremeCourt decision protects thesending of mail by prisoners,Flateau says, “We’re lookingto see whether or not everythingon that website was inthe strictest adherence to theSupreme Court decision, inthat every i was dotted andthat every t was crossed.”To Wilson, these attitudesrepress free speech and religion.“The United States isbecoming more and morelike China,” he says, “wherethere is a government-sponsoredChristianity. They toleratea watered-down churchthere that won’t be a threat totheir government. The PatriotAct here reinforces asimilar message.“As in China,” Wilsoncontinues,“the true Christianchurch here has to go moreand more underground. Butall the persecution does is fanthe flames of desire.”Yet, due to the negative responsehe’s received, Wilsonisn’t sure he wants Houseupon the Rock to sponsor theDavid Berkowitz homepageanymore. “I feel the Lord isencouraging me to find achurch in the New York areato host the site and answer allthe e-mails,” he says. “Thiswill be better, as it will helpthe people in New York whoneed assistance. I have a coupleof churches in mind, andI’ll be contacting them aboutmaking the change.” In themeantime, Wilson plans tovisit Berkowitz during a tripto New York this month. ■<strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Reader</strong> July 15, 2004 13

With the birth of each of five children, the hospital tray had a glob of the jittery stuff. Lastweek I visited a sick friend, and there on the lunch tray was — yep! A dish of Jell-O. Does Jell-O have some hidden nutritive value (other than the listed lots of sugar, minimal one gram ofprotein) that hospital nutritionists see fit to serve it so constantly?— Dolores Smith, <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong>Jell-O. Grandma’s favorite subject. Grandma is to Jell-O as Michelangelo is to marble. There’sno shape she hasn’t tried, nothing she can’t suspend in molded lime. Grapes? Banana disks?Child’s play. For Father’s Day, she gave Pa Alice a Sunset Salad with orange Jell-O, carrot curls,pineapple chunks, argyle socks, and a tie. So we were sure she’d have the answer to yourquestion, Dolores.“Hospital Jell-O? And just why do you think I’d know anything about hospital Jell-O?After all my years of blending and crafting and perfecting my skills…the year I covered theChristmas tree in cherry Jell-O and tinsel? All the Jell-O jack-o-lanterns and birthday cakes?Why, I — ”“Okay, okay, Grandma.…”Jeez. Artists. Let’s try somebody who just cuts ’em into cubes and throws ’em in abowl.Kraft Foods. That’s Jell-O’s parent company. We dialed them up. The corporate Jell-O word is, the stuff has been around since 1897, and they’ve never, ever called it a health food.It’s been a fun food, especially for kids, for all its jiggly life. Fancy molded Jell-O salad wasthe official side dish of the 1950s, and today they still sell nearly half a billion boxes a year.They’ve tried some questionable flavors like cola and chocolate, but don’t look for spinachor ginseng anytime soon.So let’s try the medical side. UCSD has lots of medical people. We dialed them up. Why,why is Jell-O a hospital staple, right up there with penicillin and gauze pads? Well, Dolores,turns out it has nothing to do with protein, as most people think. Jell-O is actually the antiprotein.It’s a popular post-surgery food precisely because it helps keep blood sugar up andhas almost none of that hard-to-digest protein. And you don’t even have to chew it if youdon’t want to. If a patient can tolerate Jell-O, the chef can move on to something moreadventurous. Creamed beans. Bread in white sauce.But when you consider the situation, Jell-O is also rampant in cafeterias, prisons, saladbars, all-you-can-eat buffets… It’s everywhere. Know what the feds served immigrants whocame through Ellis Island? Jell-O. It’s always been a cheap, colorful, easy-to-make, easy-toserve,easy-to-store, everybody-likes-it kind of eatable. This is most likely why it appearedon hospital menus in the first place; any health benefits were recognized later and just guaranteeit will be around forever. One day someone will wake up from head-transplant surgery andbe staring at Jell-O.BY MATTHEW ALICE14 <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Reader</strong> July 15, 2004ASSOCIATE’S DEGREE General Education BACHELOR’S DEGREES Computer Information Systems • ComputerScience • Criminal Justice • Organizational Leadership Psychology • Social Science MASTER’S DEGREES CriminalJustice • Education – Curriculum & Instruction – Educational Leadership and Administration – InstructionalTechnology – Reading • Human Resources • Organizational Leadership • Psychology (MFT) • School CounselingSchool • Psychology • Special Education • Teaching PROFESSIONAL CERTIFICATIONS SHRM FundamentalsPHR/SPHR Exam Preparation • Professional Development Courses for K-12 Educators CREDENTIALS ANDCERTIFICATIONS CLAD Certification • Education Specialist (Levels I & II) – Mild/Moderate – Moderate/SevereMultiple Subject/2042 • Preliminary Administrative Services Tier I • Professional Administrative Services Tier IIProfessional Clear • Professional Reading Certificate • Pupil Personnel Services – School Counseling – SchoolPsychology • Single Subject/2042 CERTIFICATES FOR ACADEMIC CREDIT Executive Certificate in Public andNonprofit Leadership • Human Resources • Organizational Leadership • ReadingChapman University is accredited by and is a member of the Western Association of Schools and Colleges.Teacher training and credential programs are approved by the Commission on Teacher Credentialing.ChapmanUniversitySince 1861<strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> 7460 Mission Valley Rd. 619-296-8660 www.chapman.edu/sandiegoHeymatt:Why are underwear and pants always referred to as a “pair”? Yes, there are two leg holes orpant legs, but a single shirt has two arm holes or sleeves but is never referred to as a pair ofshirts.— Apparelly Challenged, PowayApparently so. “Pair” from the Latin means two like things. And pants (pantaloons) were originallytwo like things. You put them on one leg at a time because they actually came in two pieces.You put on one leg, tied it around your waist, put on the other leg, tied it around your waist.From the beginning, about the 16th Century, pants (and breeches, trousers, etc.) have beenreferred to as a pair. Shirts, on the other hand, were made from a single piece of cloth, so twosleeves didn’t inspire anybody to call it a pair of shirts. Or a pair of bras.Matt:Settle an argument. My friend and I were walking across campus the other day, and I stoppedto pick up a penny. My friend thought it was stupid for me to go to all the trouble of picking upa penny. She says she wouldn’t bother for anything less than a dime. I say a penny is a penny,and sooner or later I’ll have a dime. And besides there are lots more pennies on the groundthan dimes. Who’s right?— One Cent Richer, SDSUHey, that economics class is coming in handy already. The only way to settle this is to askwhat else you could be doing with your time that would bring more income. Say it takes asecond to spot the penny, two seconds to pick it up, and two seconds to get your head to stopspinning and put the penny in your pocket, that means you’re earning 12 cents a minute, $7.20an hour. Beats flipping burgers. And the fresh air and sunshine are a bonus.A searchable archive of past columns is available at <strong>San</strong><strong>Diego</strong><strong>Reader</strong>.comGot a question you need answered?

I didn’t come home with the$10,000, but I got my average up. I won a lot ofgames.”I have found Ms. Meilach by way of amisdirected Google search that led me to theNational Scrabble Association site. Said site ledme to Club # 357 of Carlsbad, California, which,in turn, revealed the name and phone number of# 357’s codirector, Dona Meilach.I want to know, “How did you get started inScrabble?”“I always wanted to play Scrabblecompetitively,” says Dona. “My husband wasn’tenough competition. I saw a notice about this[Scrabble] club meeting. This was 15, 18 yearsago. That club died for a time and then someoneelse came in and he got the same club number,reinstated the whole club, and then left andanother gal and I became codirectors. Neither ofus can go full-time.”“What do you love about Scrabble?”“One, it gets me away from the computersometimes.” Dona laughs, “but, I also play on thecomputer. Two, it’s a constantly changingchallenge. Three, the people you play with areamazing. What they store in their heads and whatthey can pull out. Even yourself, it’s amazing tosee what you can pull out, what words are sittingup there that you never realized you had accessto.”Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch is the name of a village inWales and brings to mind a question. “Is thegame visual for you, or is it more hearing thesyllables in your mind?”“Oh, it’s visual. It’s all visual, because if youdon’t see a word right away, you sit and juggleyour letters around. You put on an ending, like aning ending or an ion ending, and then you mix upthe other letters and see if you can find a word.And you’re playing against time.”“How much time?”“You’re playing 25 minutes per person. Youuse a chess clock. You play, it’s on your time, youfinish the play, you hit the clock, and now it’s onyour opponent’s time. You can take as much timeas you want for any play, but it’s part of your 25minutes. If you go over time, you lose ten pointsper minute.”The Vegas LineWBA Lightweight ChampionshipJuly 17, 2004 – Houston, TexasTime to roll out a tiny bit of my immenseScrabble knowledge. “I assume everybody you’replaying with knows the trick words like “qo” and“el”.“Qo. There’s no Qo,” Dona says with, I mustadd, unseemly haste. “I think there are seven qwords without us. We all know those.”“So, what separates a good player from apretty good player.” Qo?“Practice, being able to visualize words,knowing the strange Scrabble vocabulary even ifyou don’t know all the meanings. Some of thepeople study with study aids. They practice withflash cards.”Damn cheaters, if you ask me. “How manygames do you play in one session?”“Most people play four,” Dona says, “but acouple of us play very fast, so we might get sixgames in an evening. And, if we’re really hot, wemight stay for a seventh on Monday night.”“And when you go home, what would makeyou say, ‘That was a good night of Scrabble’?”“If I’d won four out of six, three out of four,and if I don’t lose sleep because of a word Imissed.”Eschscholtzia is a genus of papaveraceousplants, found in California. “Do you keep track ofaverage point totals?”“Yes. My average range is around 365, 370,and I’m only a middle player. The top playersprobably average 380, 400, 410 a session.”“At those levels you’d have to be good atplaying bingos.”Dona says, “You have to be able to see thebingo words, yeah. And you have to go forpoints.”Finishing up now. “Did you always have aknack?”“Yes. Well, I’m a writer.”Indeed. I ask, putting a severe qo tone in myvoice, “Interesting. What have you written?”“I’m on my 89th book. In fact, I’m sittinghere pounding one out right now.”That’s my mouth you see on the floor.“Let’s see,” Dona says, “42 books ondifferent sorts of How To crafts. Then I got intocomputers and did 11 books on computers. Andcooking — still doing cooking books. I’ve doneabout a dozen cooking books. And then I didsome children’s books…and…some exercisebooks.Dona and Scrabble can be found “Mondaynight in La Jolla at Scripps Green Hospital down inthe cafeteria. That’s from 6:30 until you can’t standit anymore. And every Saturday morning we play atthe Stagecoach Community Center in Carlsbad.”Boxer Moneyline Boxer MoneylineLakva Sim -105 Juan Diaz -125WBC Lightweight TitleJuly 24, 2004 – Atlantic City, New JerseyAuturo Gatti -200 Leonard Dorin +160Heavyweight Main EventJuly 30, 2004 – Louisville, KentuckyMike Tyson -1000 Danny Williams +600The Sporting Box solicits your commentsvia the Internet: sportbox@ix.netcom.com.

John FarleyCongregation size: 1100 membersSunday school enrollment: 275Staff size: 5 full-time, 9 part-timeAnnual budget: $850,000Weekly giving: $16,000Singles program: yesDress: casual to dressyDiversity: white, Hispanic, African-American,AsianLength of service reviewed: 65 minutesLast week I asked Reverend John Farley atFoothills United Methodist if he thought the membersof his church were like happy children whowere unaware that their mom and dad weretalking about calling it quits.“That is,” Reverend Farley said, “a fairlyaccurate metaphor.”I asked this because conservatives withinthe United MethodistChurch are using thed-word. Ongoing disputesover same-sexunions and biblicalauthority have encouragedthese folks to arguethat the denomination’sliberal and conservativewings should divorce.“This is all happeningat a fairly highlevel,” Reverend Farleyexplained. “So, youraverage church memberisn’t very aware ofwhat’s going on. There’salso the issue of peoplenowadays not being asloyal to one denomination.Here at Foothillswe’re a communitychurch. Of the 16 peoplecurrently in ourmembership class, only2 were born and raisedas Methodists.”Reverend Farleyexplained that in theUnited MethodistChurch, the denominationowns the churchbuildings and property.“So, if there everwere a split, if the UMCbecame two denominations,our churchwould have to vote onwhich we’d join. Like many United Methodistchurches, our church members represent a broadrange of views. It could get messy. It’d be like adivorce. There’d be property issues and questionson the order of where the kids were goingto live. It would tear us apart.”Foothills United Methodist sits on fivelandscaped acres of lawns and mature trees. Thechurch not long ago finished construction on a$1.5 million youth center and preschool building.A large fountain plashes before the narthex.Vertical panels of stained glass line the nave’s cavernousinterior. To the far left of the altar tablestands a hefty pipe organ.Last Sunday I, along with 400 or so otherpeople, attended the church’s 10:15 a.m. “contemporaryservice.” Unlike many contemporaryservices, however, Foothills’ hasn’t scuttleda traditional Order of Service. A guitarist, drummer,and female soloist perform contemporaryhymns, but acolytes march down the center aisleto light candles on the altar table.

Therewas a benediction, during which Reverend Farleyblessed the congregation while making theSign of the Cross. (“The Order of Service,” helater told me, “is something I don’t think I couldever abandon, not even for a contemporaryservice.”)The liturgy’s only unusual feature wassomething called “Questions of Faith.” EverySunday, Reverend Farley takes time during theservice to answer questions that members of thecongregation have submitted to him. Last Sunday,someone was puzzled by the precise locationof heaven.“I’ve always been taught that heaven wasup in the sky. Where is it exactly? Is it a physicalplace?”Reverend Farley said that while the OldTestament conceived of heaven as a literal place,the New Testament’s understanding was that“heaven isn’t a physical place but a spiritualpresence. To be in God’s presence is to be inParadise.”Despite “Questionsof Faith,” Reverend Farleyfollows the lectionary,so his sermons, he toldme, aren’t topical. LastSunday morning, hespoke about Luke10:25–37, the story ofthe Good Samaritan.“Jesus didn’t giveeasy lessons,” he said.“He didn’t give easyREVEREND JOHN FARLEYlessons on how tochange your life. Hegave difficult lessonsabout how to changeyour heart and yoursoul. Acts of mercydefine the Children ofGod. The only way tounderstand the story ofthe Good Samaritan isto replace the Samaritanwith someonewhom it would be hardestfor you to love. WhenJesus commands us tolove our neighbors, hedoesn’t say to love onlyyour neighbors whoagree with your theology.Whom do you findmost difficult to treatas your neighbor? That’sthe heart of this story.“You will love yourenemies. You will showmercy to those at homeand at work. You will address human-rightsissues in your community and world. This is whatGod has ordered us to do. It is our hope andour challenge.”After the service, people didn’t linger much,though coffee and lemonade were offered onthe church’s broad shady patio. I found ReverendFarley in his office where bay windowslooked out on lawn and trees.I asked if he was much troubled by thestrife in his denomination.“The call to the ministry is one thing anddevotion to a particular denomination is another.My job, first and foremost, is to teach the Gospel.I’m in the United Methodist Church becauseits structure works best for me. My father, too,was a Methodist minister, and when I was youngI once asked him about the future of the Church.He said, ‘The Church of God will endure untilthe end of time. I’m not so sure about theMethodist Church.’ ”— Abe Opincar

Her regular readers know she wasthe advice columnist here until recently whenshe was sidelined by a series of small strokes.She wanted to thank the caller who left a messageon the column’s voice mail about thetherapeutic benefits of hyperbaric oxygen forstroke patients. She says she’s going to lookinto it. And she asked me to express her gratitudeto well-wishers like the correspondentwhose note is reprinted below.Dear Saffron,Good luck in your new (imposed) venture. Pleasetell Aunt Trudy that I wish her a speedy and completerecovery. I recovered from lung cancersurgery and I can tell her recovery is slow andpainful. But tell her not to get discouraged. In theend she will be as good as new. She has to just keepplugging away. The best to both of you.C.C. FROM SPRING VALLEYDear <strong>Reader</strong>s,A smart woman left some excellent suggestionson the column’s voice mail for “Doggedin El Cajon” who’d written in complaining thatshe was being stalked by a demented cousinvia e-mail. Save those e-mails, the caller counsels.Forward them to family members —mom, dad, aunts, and uncles — so they cantry to influence this nutty cousin to stop andmaybe even get help, which he obviouslyneeds. If Cousin Itt ever decided to dog hisvictim in person, the caller further advises,she might need the e-mails as evidence to beused in obtaining a restraining order againsthim so that he would be legally required toleave her alone.Dear Saffron,My husband and I have been together for a longtime. We have two kids. Our relationship has beenup and down like most. One day he tells me hewants a divorce, that he’s been unhappy all theseyears. I had no clue. I asked him to go to marriagecounseling. He refused. I tried all I could think ofto save our marriage, but nothing worked. Then Ifound out he’d been seeing someone else. Nowwe’ve been separated for a year, but he still acts likehe cares about me. When his girlfriend is notaround, he spends most of his time with the kidsand me. We take the kids out together and sometimeshave sex, too. But the weird thing is that wedon’t have much to say to each other except to talkabout our kids. He doesn’t want to be seen withme in public. I’m very confused. What is he thinking?Does he still love me? If yes, then why does hewant a divorce? If no, then why does he still careabout me and want to have sex withme? I’ve tried to forget him completelybut haven’t been able to. And our kidsare my whole life. I am getting wearyof the way we are now, though. I knowthere is no way he will give up his girlfriendor come back to us. Whatshould I do?SEPARATED IN SANTEEDear Separated,All those questions you asked inyour letter about your husband —why don’t you put them to him?Only he knows what’s on his mind.I’m interested in what you want.What would make you really happyright now, relationship-wise? If youwanted an ex-husband who doublesas occasional lover, and whospends tons of time with anotherwoman, you’re there. But yousound sick of that (and personally,I wouldn’t be thrilled either), thoughsome women are content, or thinkthey are, with eternally unavailablemen like your ex. You could takeyourself out and get some of thatcounseling you suggested to yourhusband, all on your own. Use it tohelp you figure out what you reallywant and how to get it in a healthy,self-respecting way. You can try tolearn about what went wrong inyour marriage so you can benefitfrom the past and move on to abrighter future. If you play yourcards right, I bet you can find a wayto remain friends with your husbandand have both of you stayvery involved with your kids — withoutallowing him to use you as asecond-choice sex partner whenhis main squeeze is out of town.Unless you like it that way. I’m notinto the idea of some guy beingembarrassed to be seen with youbecause he’s afraid his otherwoman is going to catch wind of it.I’m much more excited about theprospect of your finding a newboyfriend or husband who lovesbeing seen with you, is proud ofand devoted to you, and finds youall the woman he needs.Write to Saffron c/o the<strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Reader</strong>, P.O.

First he rolleda barrel-sized boulder around front from thebackyard. It became the centerpiece of thegarden and pedestal for my statue of St.Francis. Then my honeyplanted lavender, Africandaisies, broom plant,South African mallow,jade plant,flowering garlic,and a couple ofvarieties of iceplant. And to preventhis “wifey”from having to spendendless hours weeding,he laid down weedblockingfabric around the plantsand topped it with white decorative rock.For a month or so, I basked in my frontgarden’s beauty. But then, a few blades ofcrabgrass began to poke their unwelcomeheads up through the cloth. In a week, thickgreen patches were all over the garden.Patrick was dismayed. “This cloth iscrap.” He bent down and, sweepingthe rocks away, inspected aspot where the crabgrass hadpunctured the cloth frombelow. “I spent hours hoeingall of the weeds out before Ilaid this paper, and this is thereward I get. Now I’ve got totake all the rocks off, pull upthe paper....” His complaintcontinued long into the night.Out of pity, I decided to find outwhat we did wrong.First call went out to ArmstrongGarden Center. The salesperson I spoke towas quite informative but reluctant to giveme his name for fear of his corporate overlords.He tried to console me when Irecounted our grassy nightmare. “Bermudagrasses and St. Augustine are quite a bitmore difficult to get rid of,” he offered.They grow on stolons, on runners, like ivy.They do not come straight up from a singleseed.”Before laying any weed cloth he recommendedusing “a weed preventer. Thereare pre-emergents that keep new weedsfrom coming up and there are post-emergentsthat kill existing weeds.There are also selectiveherbicides that willkill weeds withoutkilling the plantsin your garden.”My head wasswimming withgarden terminology.“Could youjust tell me whatproduct to buy,” Isuggested.“There is a new productcalled Noxall Vegetation Killer [$18.99 for2.8 lbs at Armstrong],” he replied, “a vegetationkiller that kills existing weeds andprevents new growth from coming up forabout a year. But that stuff is really strong.I would only put Noxall in a place where youdidn’t want anything to grow.“One of my favorite products,” he continued,“is Amaze Grass & Weed Preventer,a granular [$12.99 for 4 lbs at Armstrong].It’s one of our best sellers, and itis a weed preventer. It gets rid of seeds thatare germinating. If you are looking for anorganic product that can be used in vegetablegardens, we sell Concern Weed PreventionPlus [$12.99 for 5 lbs at Armstrong].It is a corn gluten, safe to use around kidsand pets.” I noticed on the package that itstates “corn gluten meal contains naturallyoccurring substances that inhibit thegrowth of the seed’s tiny feeder roots.This causes the weed seedlings to diebefore they ever have a chance to takehold.”The Armstrong sales rep also recommendedWeed Stopper Hose ’Em ($16.99for 30 ounces at Armstrong). “It is a selectivepre-emergent — it controls weeds inflower beds without killing your flowers.”After we — once again — rid our gardenof seeds and stolon, what next?“You cut an X in the cloth so that itfolds out and then it folds back in closearound the flowers. You want touse a plastic that is permeable,with little holes init, or the weed fabriccloth so that it aerates,and water canget through, andwater can comeout so that itdoesn’t get moldyunderneath.Hardware storeswill sell plastic, butif it does not haveany holes in it, it willkeep in a lot of the moisture,and it can cause moldingunderneath, or bug collection. SoI recommend using something that isslightly porous.”Armstrong sells Weed Block by EasyGardener ($17.99 for a 3-foot by 50-footpiece). It comes with a full refund warranty.How long will the weed cloths last?“It will usually say on the container.Some last as long as 15 years. But what happenssometimes is that people will see weedscoming up and they are actually growing ontop of the cloth. Dirt will eventually floatin, or birds will go to the bathroom on thecloth, and seeds will also drift in and actuallybe able to root on top of that weed plastic.So sometimes you will get a few weeds.”Jerry, assistant wholesale manager atEvergreen Nursery, says they also sellWeed Block by Easy Gardener ($15.99 for3 feet by 50 feet). “According to thelabel,” he said, “they claim that it willstop weeds for years. I recommend takingthe grass down to the soil and thenspraying the ground with Roundup orsomething like that. I know a lot of peoplewant to lay the weed block on top ofthe existing grass, and they don’t get thegrass to completely die off.”Jerry suggested using decorative rockinstead of bark to cover the weed cloth.(That’s one thing we did correctly.) “Barkwill change color over time,” he said, “anddeteriorate with the weather, so you willhave to touch it up or lay down new bark.Gravel will be long-lasting.”1.

It is one of the few brothelsof its type in the city. In the downtownarea there is only one other, and as might besurmised, it is successful, situated directlyacross the street from the Jai Alai Palace.This place is known as the Unicornio, andgiven the desire of the city to do away withsuch bars along Main Street, its days arealmost certainly numbered. But the Unicorniois doing well at the moment, and ona Friday or Saturday night it is packed tocapacity.— “NIGHTS IN TIJUANA,” William King, July 19, 1979Twenty Years AgoThey seemed to be the ideal couple: thirtyeight-year-oldLeonardo Radomile andTerry Cole-Whittaker, six years his senior.Both of them financially comfortable andboth of them riding the crest of a boomingself-help ministry, he as chairman of theboard and she as the charismatic figurehead.Six weeks ago, the pair separated. If whatthey say is true, then they may perhaps bethe only couple in California’s notoriousdomestic history to have had an amicabledivorce. No crockery thrown. No howling.No kicking. None of the back-biting anticsthat make for complicated property settlements.Statements issued from the Whittakercamp regarding the couple’s relationshiphum with the words “image,” “packaging,”and “marketing penetration.” It is clearthat Ms. Whittaker, now four timesdivorced, is her own ultimate product.— CITY LIGHTS: “SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATEOF MATRIMONY,” Abe Opincar, July 19, 1984Fifteen Years AgoTwo rubber-veiled hands press cloths down;the pumpkin square of abdomen shines taut.Framing the exposed area, faded aquadrapes conceal curves of body.

C rasherTHAT ’70S PARTYby Josh Boardthe strangest thing happeneda few days ago. Myvoice mail wasn’t filled withparty invites but with questions.One lady called about aband I mentioned and wantedto know where they playednext so she could go checkthem out. Another lady said,“I’m having a housewarmingparty. I’m not calling to inviteyou to it. You mentioned atthat party they had streettacos. Can you give me thename or number of that company?Those tacos soundedgood.” I got a few other messageswith similar questions. Ihave four words for all thosepeople: Yellow Pages andGoogle.I got a call from an SDSUstudent named Sarah. She mentionedme writing about a UCSDevent and told me about her ’70sthemeparty. She said it was alsofor her graduation. I asked herabout the decorations for theparty, and somewhere along theline I asked her if she wanted toborrow any of my albums fromthe ’70s. She said yes, and thenI remembered a friend who ownseight-track tapes. I brought 50of those, along with a hundredalbums. Of the four gals wholived there, two of them didn’tknow what eight-tracks were.The house they lived in nearSDSU had the perfect look for a’70s-theme party. One girl said,“This does look like one of those’70s porno houses.” It remindedme of Burt Reynolds’s place in BoogieNights.I walked in and saw a giantmirror on the coffee table withlines of cocaine on it and somethingto cut it up with. I foundout later it was Ajax. I hopenobody tried any — they’d eitherget real sick…or have really cleanlungs.Albums were all over thewalls. All the staples from the ’70s:Frampton Comes Alive, Best ofBread, ABBA, and lots more. Thewalls had a few movie postersfrom the ’70s: Pink Floyd’s TheWall and, of course, Saturday[ ]“There was some serious drinking involvedto acquire this type of collection.”Night Fever. There was also adisco ball in the dining room.As I walked toward the backpatio where most of the peoplewere, I was almost hit by a girlwho roller-skated quickly downthe hall. I saw three girls in rollerskatingoutfits, and only one ofthe girls fell down in the courseof the night.A few girls had the JackieO. type of sunglasses. At least tenguys had big Afro wigs. Therewere miniskirts, a few gowns,and some Farrah Fawcett hairstyles.And the variety of outfits surprisedme. There was only one guy witha white Travolta-style suit. I feltunderdressed in an old shirt thathad a glittery Cheap Trick ironon.One African-American guywas dressed like a ’70s pimp. Iasked him if that was just forthis party or if he normally wearsthat outfit when he goes out.There were a few tie-dyeshirts, which I think of as moreof a ’60s thing. One of the guyswearing tie-dye said, “Hey, Ididn’t want to go out and buysome cheesy leisure suit that I’donly wear once.” His friend said,“I had fun going out looking foran outfit. At thrift stores youfind this stuff cheap. It was funnylooking at all the crazy shirts.You wonder how anyone got laidin the ’70s wearing such uglyclothing.”One gal broke a beer bottleon the patio. As she was cleaningit up, she said, “I didn’t seethe step there. These Elvis sunglassesare so dark.” Not to mentionit was nighttime. I noticedthere were at least five peoplewith Elvis sunglasses. They werepopular at the white-trash partiesI went to.There was a keg of beer onthe patio, and somebody wastelling me I should give a “shoutout”to Karl Strauss for providingit for free. I asked how thatcame about. “Well, ah…someonewe know works there. Oh,maybe you shouldn’t give a shoutout.I don’t know.”There was one girl there whohad just turned 21. She was drinkingbut not to excess. She toldme she was going to UCLA, andthen to medical school.Two of the other girls wholived at this house were SDSUstudents. One of them, Angie,was staying there temporarilyand would be leaving soon to goto Florida. There was a little gossipabout her, because she wasgetting cozy with the guy in the26 <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Reader</strong> July 15, 2004★★★ MULTIPLE AWARD WINNER ★★★SPANISHItalianTaught in an ADVANCEDSUPERLEARNING METHOD.You will reach a pleasantCONVERSATIONAL LEVEL INJUST 54 HOURS.<strong>FREE</strong> DEMONSTRATIONSNEW!Teachers, Students,Anyone!2-4 WEEKINTENSIVESPANISHSummer coursesavailable.(In addition to ourregular classes.)619-692-3181Language World3741 INDIA STREET • HWY 5/WASHINGTON ST.

®Travolta suit. It turned outhe was her ex-boyfriend. Sheended up getting a bit toastedand fell asleep on his lap onthe couch.When I asked some ofthe people about their outfits,a few mentioned goingon the Internet to see thestyle of clothing worn in the’70s. I said, “Yeah, you guysprobably were born in the’70s and don’t remember.” Inunison two guys said, “Wewere born in 1982.” Damn,I’m old.There was one girl atthe keg wearing leopard-skinpants. A guy told me thatshe was always trying to scamstuff from people. He said,“Sometimes, she’ll go up tothe keg and fill up a 40-ounce container. She’s alwaysborrowing money from people.”A blonde named Robininterrupted to ask him whyhe was talking that way aboutone of their friends. “Especially,”she added, “to areporter.”The guy telling me thestory was the only one therewith a giant Afro — that wasreal. The entire night peoplekept coming up to him andpulling it, asking if it wasreal. He said, “Usually whenI say ‘ouch’ they know it’sreal. My hair is naturallycurly, but I combed it outmore.”One guy who was aplumber came over and askedif he could buy a cigarettefrom Robin. She said, “Youcan have one.” I said to theguy, “You can buy this cigarI’m smoking.” He laughedand said, “How much? I’llgive you two bucks for it.Or, if you want, a sexualfavor.” He took the cigaretteand left. The guy with thecurly hair said, “Are yougoing to write about that? I’veread three different columnswhere you’ve talked aboutcigars.” Make that four.I asked a few of the girlsif they worked while theywent to school. Jen told meshe worked at Chili’s. Jilltold me she worked at 94.9FM. We talked a bit aboutthe station and some of thepeople I knew who workedthere. I won’t mention Halloran,because the last timeI did in a story, he freakedout and sent a bunch of nastye-mails.I told Robin I thoughtit was cool of the guy to offerto buy a cigarette. I alwaysthought that was weird thatpeople ask total strangersfor cigarettes, especiallywhen you hear about howexpensive they are. Peopledon’t pull up to a gas stationand ask other drivers for agallon of gas. Robin said, “Idon’t mind, because I don’tsmoke that much — usuallyjust when I’m drinking.”I followed the curlyhairedguy into the kitchen.I saw hundreds of differentsizedJack Daniel’s bottlesand other Jack Daniel’s items.One guy said, “This is like adiscipline. This is like whenfootball practice has thosetwo-a-day workouts. Therewas some serious drinkinginvolved to acquire this typeof collection.”Somebody mentionedthat the curly-haired guylooked like Richard Simmons,and a few of us laughed. Hesaid, “I’ve heard that before.I was Richard Simmons oneyear for Halloween. I had thetank top and red-stripedshorts.”There were speakers allaround the house and backpatio playing ’70s songs. Itwas such an interesting varietyof stuff. I heard the usualdisco — Bee Gees and VillagePeople — but sometimesthere would be a song I’dcompletely forgotten about.When “Kung Fu Fighting”started, an Asian guy wearinga martial arts outfit starteddoing karate chops in theair. It reminded me of someof those latter-day Elvisconcerts.I heard a few other songsthat reminded me that thedecade wasn’t all bad musically.I heard Dr. John, theWho, Clapton, and someZeppelin.A few of the men walkingaround had fake mustaches.One also had drawnfake hair on his chest, withhis shirt unbuttoned all theway down. One had whitepowder on his ’stache, makingit look like he did coke.I mentioned that tray of Ajax28 <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Reader</strong> July 15, 20044925 EL CAJON BLVD. • (619)582-5580/5577(corner of El Cajon Blvd. & 49th Street) • SAN DIEGOMON.-SAT. 9 AM-7 PMCredit Hotline: 619-582-8155MILITARY FINANCINGServing <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> Since 1991Some cars may require extra parts & labor.

in the living room, and oneof the girls said, “No, it’snot Ajax. We actually justused flour.” One guy overheardthis and said, “Hey, I wonderwhat it would be like tosnort flour.” Someone elsereplied, “How many beershave you had, dude?”I met a guy named Kevinwho I started talking sportswith. He knew a lot aboutfootball and basketball. Whenwe were talking about theLakers’ disappointing gamesin the NBA finals, anotherguy started screaming, “TheLakers suck, man! That’s ateam with a bunch of egos.They’ll never go anywherewith attitudes like that!” Hethen walked away. It was odd,because during the entireparty he hadn’t talked to anyone.Then he yelled at usabout the Lakers and left theparty. Those may have beenthe only words he uttered.Kevin said, “Well, I’mleaving. I work at Seau’sRestaurant. I work in thesushi bar. Come in and askfor me, and I’ll hook you up.”I would take him up on thatif it wasn’t for the fact thatSeau’s changed the cigar roomthey had into that lame sushibar (that’s six times, if you’rekeeping track).About three hours intothis party (at 2:30 a.m.), Icouldn’t believe there werestill 50 people around thepool on the patio. I heardabout previous parties they’vehad here where people fellinto the water. At other parties,bands played and thecops showed up.There was one guy wearinga bunch of beads likethe kind you see at MardiGras. And he had a sequinedshirt. Someone leaned intome and said, “I can’t decideif he looks more like Liberaceor Elton John.”At around 3:30, therewere still people dancing inthe living room. A few of theguys took their wigs off. Iasked one guy what happenedto his mustache andhe said, “It’s in my pocket.”One of the roller girls,in hot pink shorts, had beentalking to a guy the entireevening on the patio. Hewrote her number down onhis arm, and she gave him apeck on the cheek.The crowd was startingto dissipate. One girl who’dhad too much to drink wason a couch covered in blankets.On another couch, acouple was making out. At thebar in the dining room, a fewpeople were drinking andtalking. One guy was stilltrying to pick up every girlthat walked by.As I left, I wondered ifin the future people wouldthrow parties with the themebeing “the early 2000s.” Ithought how odd it was that,in 1950, if people threw aparty that was supposed tobe futuristic, in the year2000, people would be wearingspace suits and have laserguns. I wondered what peoplewould do in the futurewhen they have a nostalgicparty for this year. Insteadof wearing fake mustaches,it will be fake piercings andtattoos, with pants that hangdown below their waists toshow off back tattoos andthongs. ■Crash your party?

Lovers LaneJEREMY PLESO & JOCELYN LEEMet: March 2, 2002Engaged: December 25, 2003Wedding Date: September 12,2004Think you can’t findlove at a sports bar?Think again. OnMarch 2, 2002, Jocelyn Lee, 37,was flying wing man for herbest friend Kim at Yogi’s inEncinitas. “Kim was chattingup this guy who claimed to be aNavy pilot,” Ms. Lee says andlaughs. Sitting outside on asunny spring afternoon at acoastal North County shoppingcenter, Ms. Lee turns andsmiles at her fiancé, JeremyPleso, 29. “You know, you’vegot to be supportive if yourfriend is talking withsomeone.”A Marine stationed atCamp Pendleton at the timeand working in military intelligence,Mr. Pleso assessed Ms.Lee’s situation. “Jocelyn lookedbored,” Mr. Pleso confirms.“She was playing with her strawand looking around. So Ihelped her out. We startedmaking small talk.”“He cracked me up,” Ms.Lee says.Ms. Lee and her rescuerspent the evening together. Thenext morning, they had breakfastat the Potato Shack andtook a walk on the beach.“Everybody says, ‘You can’tmeet anyone at a bar,’ ” Ms.Lee says. “But you can.”They’ve been together eversince. “I knew he was the onewhen he came over to myhouse with his guitar andplayed a medley of ’80s powerballads. I love that music.”“It was the cheesy-hairlove-ballad medley,” Mr. Plesosays.Mr. Pleso deployed to theMiddle East in July 2002. Hewas gone for six months, trainingin Kuwait. “We e-mailed alot while I was gone,” Mr. Plesoexplains. “Plus some regularletters.”He got back in December2002 and was re-deployed amonth later to Iraq. “That onewas harder,” Ms. Lee says. “Weweren’t expecting it. AndJeremy said, ‘I don’t knowwhere I’m going to be or whatI’m going to be doing.’ Whilehe was gone, I refused to watchthe news.” Ms. Lee, a hairdresserat Kids’ Kuts in Encinitas,also got involved in communitytheater to make the time go by.When Mr. Pleso returnedin May 2003, he knew he wantedto marry Ms. Lee. “It wasalways in the back of mymind,” he says. “As soon as Igot back after being in thisstressful situation and enduringa long separation, I knew shewas the one.”On Christmas morning 2003, the couple exchanged presents attheir home in Encinitas. Mr. Pleso told Ms. Lee to leave the roomfor a minute. When she came back, he was standing by the tree. Hespoke to her in terms of endearment, asked her to marry him, andpulled out a little red velvet box. She said, “Yes.”At the shopping center, Ms. Lee holds up her left hand. On herthird finger a ring sparkles with a center diamond surrounded bytwo smaller diamonds and baguettes on the side. The couple isplanning a small September wedding for 60 to 70 people at Ms.Lee’s mother’s home in Encinitas. “She lives right down the streetfrom us,” Ms. Lee says. “She’s got a nice-sized back yard. We’regoing to have a reverend marry us. He’s helping us choose ourvows. I read somewhere that you shouldn’t write your own vowsunless you’re a Pulitzer Prize winner.” Ms. Lee laughs.“My mom has gotten the caterer,” she continues. “I haven’tshopped for my dress yet. That’s the best part. I’m saving it forlast.”Mr. Pleso, who got out of the Marines five months ago, nowattends Mira Costa College full-time. “I’m taking credits toward myassociate’s degree,” he says. “I plan to go on and get a bachelor’s incommunications.” In the meantime, he’s also part of the waitstaffat Pamplemousse Grille, a swanky Del Mar restaurant.In five years, Mr. Pleso plans to start his career in communications.The couple hopes to have kids. “Or a Yorkshire terrier,” Ms.Lee says and laughs. “Because of my age, we’ve got to have kidspretty soon.“I feel so comfortable with Jeremy,” she continues. “We fittogether like a hand in glove. I was always tense about relationshipsbefore. He’s brought a real peace, a contentment and ease.”Mr. Pleso agrees. “It’s not a childish infatuation. It’s a verymature love. I can see Jocelyn and I forever happy growing oldtogether.”Seeing them together, even a sports fan would be smart to beton that.— Leslie RylandEngaged? Tell us your story.

DIARY OF A DIVAToe Cleavage Revealedby Barbarellasaid money can’t buy happiness simply‘Whoeverdidn’t know where to go shopping.”— Bo DerekI don’t believe in coincidences. Could it just happen that Iwould need three new pairs of shoes at the same time asNordstrom’s Half-Yearly sale? I don’t think so. This was asign. The universe was telling me something, and it soundeda lot like By Gnu Shoos. My feet were desperate for stylishsandals, adorable walking shoes, and sexy evening shoes. Forsuch a mission, I enlisted help from two shoe-shoppingmavens and good friends — Gee (a.k.a. “Onion Head”) andStephanie.I detest the mall on weekendswith the vigor of a catSunday, I was forced to take a bath. There’snever any parking, and peoplejust a halibut in become morons when clustereden masse. I rarely goa sea of sharks shopping, and when I do, I goat ridiculous hours — 10:00looking for aa.m. on a Tuesday or SuperBowl Sunday — just to avoidbargain, hungry the mob drama. But weekendor not, this was a sale; sacrificesmust be made for thefor that goodpurchasehigh.Fashion Valley, mall forgreater foot.the rich and plastic. I am neither.Sunday, I was just a halibutin a sea of sharks lookingfor a bargain, hungry for thatgood-purchase high. WhenNordstrom has a sale, everystore in the mall wants a pieceof the action, so prices aremarked down from JC Penneyto Neiman Marcus.Nordstrom, foundedwith one little shoe store inSeattle, was the starting pointfor our mission. Each of mygirls has an eye for fashion, yettheir styles differ. Gee likesdesigner shoes — MarcJacobs, Prada, and a bunch ofnames I never heard of. Italianshoes, rounded toes, brightcolors, four-inch heels. Shethinks $200 for a pair of shoesis a bargain. I’ve never spentmore than $100 on a pair (andthat one time, I had to rationalizeit). Stephanie prefersornamentation on her strappyshoes, a flower or little cherries...jewelswould be divine.She likes pink and red, butthis day, she was looking for a good orange heel.Once I tried to buy shoes in colors other thanblack — a khaki pair of flats, some red mules. Inever wear them.In Nordstrom, upon arriving in Ladies’Shoes, my friends set off, gliding up and downthe aisles, while I stared, not sure which way togo first. Shoes were thrust at me from differentdirections. “Ooh, this one...no, not that one...trythis!” Suddenly, well-dressed salespeopleseemed to materialize around us. Led by thescent of commission (of which we reeked), ayoung girl with long black hair and low-ridinghip-huggers (exposing her taut little belly) gotto us first. Steph’s feet are itty-bitty 6s, and Geeis a solid 8. I handed Taut Belly three shoes,smiled, and said, “These in size 10, please.”While we waited for our lovely attendant toreturn, Stephanie and Gee plucked shoes offdisplay tables, slipping them on and off theirfeet, while I waited for my 10s.Stephanie slid her foot into a pink slipper.“Ooh, what great toe cleavage!” exclaimed Gee.Toe cleavage? At my puzzled expression, the girlsenlightened me on the sexy appeal of that visiblecrack between prominent big toe and her closestsister. That line, like a dipping décolletage on abig-busted woman, is suggestive, and any shoethat reveals her is destined to be a hot one. Iwondered what other areas of the body possessedsuch suggestive lines. Do I have fingercleavage? Armpit cleavage? What about that lineI make between my lips and cheeks when Ismile? I’ll never look at a wrinkle the same way.As Gee and Steph have their styles, I havemine. Knowing my taste, the girls brought meanything with silver studs, zippers, or locks, allblack shoes, none with a heel too steep, mostwith a fetishy flare. We came late in the game,because many of the shoes I lusted after weresold out in my size. Blasted! Always the optimist,I concluded this was a blessing in disguise,as two pairs of the shoes I’d wanted to try onwere more than $200. Ouch. I was, however,able to locate a pair of black platform thongs,kinky enough for my feet with lines of silverstuds. With sassy sandals in tow, we venturedout of Nordie’s and into the greater mall.We stopped in Charles David, where theydo not believe that feet come in size 10. Of thefew pairs that caught my eye in their ghetto-fabulousselection, the biggest they had was an 8.Gee found her pair here, though, so all was notlost.Walking into Macy’s, my eye was caughtby bling-bling purses with the word FETISHemblazoned in rhinestones. A designer lineexisted with the word “fetish,” and I was notaware of it? Absurd! Obscene! I had to have one!Fetish by Eve was the brand, and I picked up apurse that sealed with a lock engraved with asimple F, which stands not only for Fetish, butin my opinion, also for Fabulous. Macy’s, too,seemed to be out of my size for sexy shoes, but Ifound a hip black sneaker with subtle pinkaccents. With these walking shoes and mypurse, Macy’s had done me well.Neiman Marcus had nothing for me32 <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Reader</strong> July 15, 2004Next to(619) 858-82262470 <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> Ave.<strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong>, CA 92110Don’t miss SunSplash’s Swimwear Sale!

I almost startedsearching the stockroommyself when a balding manwith glasses appeared in thedoorway, blocking my way.Twenty minutes later, I hadmy sexy slippers — completewith silver buckles and rhinestonesover the toes. Success!We peeked into LouisVuitton, where Stephanie slidher tiny foot into a $950 shoe,just to see what it felt like.Given the average price of thegaudy merchandise, we wereshocked at how packed thisstore was. I leaned over to thegirls and said, “Everyone inhere has money to burn, andthey’re having bonfires atLouis Vuitton. J. Lo is theirVirgin Mary. ” Even if I couldafford it, which I cannot, thestuff is not my taste. All thebags are that same shit-browncolor, and too many of theshoes have gold on them (I’ma silver woman).On the way back to thecar, glistening with successful-shopperglow, we hit up ahat cart! You can’t shop forshoes and bags and not get ahat.

COVER PHOTOGRAPH OF BARBARELLA BY DAVID FOKOSWe LookedRIDICULOUSLYFABULOUSBarbarella Goes toHollywood34 <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Reader</strong> July 15, 2004Looking down the row of colorful fan-filled T-shirts,holding my sign high for all to see, I experience a momentof concern at being among so many cultural castaways.And when I stand to take my turn to scream and professmy love for someone I’ve never met in front of hundredsof people I’ll never see again, I begin to question my sanity.Just what led me here, to the Temple of Bob? I driftback to the first time I thought it might be fun to get on agame show — exactly one week before this day.THE SHOWWhat does it take to get on a game show? I’ve had myspeculations in the past, but until last week, I never soughtan answer. Completely ignorant of the process, I did theprudent thing by Googling “game show contestant.” Theimmensity of “how to” sites made it clear to me that I wasnot the first person to wonder what it takes to get on TVand win free shit. I watch a maximum of 30 minutes oftelevision every fortnight and have no clue what shows areairing anymore. Just because I don’t watch TV doesn’tmake me culturally retarded, so I dug deep in my memorybanks for names of game shows I’d seen in the past, andthe following sprang to mind: Jeopardy!, Wheel of Fortune,The Price Is Right, and something with the word “millionaire”in it. I immediately ruled out the millionaire one.Too stupid, too “banterific.” (Barbarism) The few minutesof this show I happened to catch in the past year or so convincedme that Regis is annoying, and people are dumb asshit. Jeopardy!, though my favorite to watch, is a show Ihave neither the patience nor the trivia acumen toattempt. Know your strengths, know your weaknesses.The periodic table and potpourri facts seem to escape meon a regular basis. On to the next!Wheel of Fortune, now THERE’S a game show. Words,a wheel, and a man named Pat. My sources told me Vannarecently took pole-dancing classes. That vixen. Wheel ofFortune was my number-one choice, so I got on theshow’s website to see what I had to do. Adult application,okay, seemed simple enough. What? Two to three weeksbefore they let you know if you’ve been considered? Andmost people NEVER hear back at ALL? Risky. I sent an e-mail after I filled out my application (note: the “application”is merely an information-gathering form for name,address, etc.) in hopes that this would help me getnoticed. As if every fanatic out there simply fills out aninformation form and leaves it at that. Right. So Wheel ofFortune was a shot in the dark, depending on the volumeof applicants. This left one.TWO BUCKSAccording to my how-to sites, The Price Is Right was theonly game show someone with my microscopic level ofpatience was likely to get on. It also seemed to be the easiest;as I would come to learn, the prerequisites were simpleand few: one must have the patience of a rock, theenthusiasm of a hyperactive seven-year-old on Christmasmorning, and a stupid T-shirt (the astute reader willdeduce that “intelligence” isn’t necessary, but I’m gettingahead of myself). I figured Monday was a perfect day tobe on TV, so I booked a room at the Wyndham Bel Age offSunset Boulevard for Sunday night. On Thursday afternoon,as I was getting a fabulous new “do,” I recruited mygood friend and stylist, Ronaldo, to be my game-showcompanion. Things were falling into place, and everythingwas set. Surely I was guaranteed a wonderful experience,an extended spotlight, and tons of big showcase booty.Saturday, I began to have doubts.My routine shopping list consists of Lean Cuisines,diet Coke, hair clips, cat food, and kitty litter. On thoseoccasions that I stock up on toiletries and perishables, Ihave a formula for figuring out the prices — assume thateverything in the cart is two bucks. This has never failedme, from <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> to Los Angeles, and back again. I justdon’t pay attention to individual prices. THE WORD ISIN THE TITLE OF THE SHOW, and I didn’t have clueone about the price of anything! Now don’t get me wrong,I’m not Miss Moneybags. I don’t wave the prices awaybecause they don’t matter. It’s just that, for my needs, my“You just geta free ticket,show up atthe studio,and take yourchances!”

Operation Get-Food-for-Birthday-Barbecueunderway, Iwalked through theautomatic sliding doorswith high hopes thatwere immediatelydashed by the vision of awarehouse filled wall-towallwith brightly coloredproducts I neverbuy. We went up anddown every aisle. Afterthe second aisle, I wasdizzy and overwhelmed.What, was I supposed tomemorize these prices?Don’t prices changefrom store to store?Everything seemed to beunder $5, but thendetergents were under$10…air fresheners were$2.69, or was that $1.49?You had to pay attentionto the brand too? Shit.There was no way in hellI was going to rememberall of this. I kept my chinup and tried hard tolook at the prices — younever know when latentpowers of the brain willwaken.

Halfway upInterstate 5, I discoveredsomething very important.Reading over theprintout of my TPiR(that’s how The Price IsRight is referred to bythose in the know, by theway) information sheet,I noticed for the firsttime the words, “Youjust get a free ticket,show up at the studio,and take your chances!”Wha’? Get a free ticket?Get TICKETS?!? I washesitant to say anythingto Ron, for the obviousreason — I felt like afucking idiot. Here wewere, an hour into ourdrive, hotel reserved, bigplans for the day ahead,and yours truly neverthought to investigategetting a ticket. Clearly,my master plan was notas thorough as I had ledRon to believe.I placed an emergencycall to David, whoI knew had at least threecomputers with Internetaccess on standby.Before dialing, I quicklyexplained our predicamentto Ron and keptright on talking untilDavid’s voice saved mefrom answering questionsRon might havethat would force me toexplain my lack of forethought.“David! Quick,get on the CBS websiteand see if you can gettickets online that youcan fax to me at thehotel…hmm, no ticketsavailable, huh?…Yeah,that’s what it sayshere…no, I read it, Ijust…I know, I know,but I think we can stilljust walk up and getin…no worries,babe…standby?

Sunday afternoonwas no exception. Wefought our way throughthe gauntlet to the hotel,and after figuring outhow to work the elevatorswith our room keys,we finally made it intoour room. Unfortunately,we wouldn’t seemuch of our swankydigs. We were in and outagain in under 15 minutes.I had to maximizemy time in LA, and Ihad friends to see, dinnerreservations tomake, and all of this hadto be completed at adecent hour, as the gatesto the studio opened at6:00 a.m. If I was to beconsidered as a contestant,I better be consciousand coherent.say, I wasn’t much moreenthused. I was tiredand nervous and concernedthat I did nothave a ticket. We droveup to the kiosk at theBeverly Boulevardentrance to the studio,where a little Filipinowoman in a uniformstood waiting. Before wecould ask where to go,she said, “You here forThe Price Is Right?” Wenodded. “You havesomeone in linealready?” No, no, wedon’t. “Ah, very fullalready, studio only fit300 people, line alreadyvery long. Entrance onFairfax, you go overthere, gate opens at6:00.” Thank you, we’lldo that. We turnedaround in the lot andheaded back to Beverlyso we could make theleft onto Fairfax. At firstwe didn’t see anything; Inoticed some homelesspeople on the sidewalk,and then WAIT! Is that aLINE behind thosehomeless people? Arethose homeless peopleIN the line? No, it can’tbe. Ron! Is that what Ithink it is?

THE MISSION!ABORT! ABORT!” Ronwas unable to concealhis relief, and I was mortifiedby the situation.The line was around theblock, and it was only5:40 a.m. I was not confidentthat I could get atthe end of that line andwait who-knew-howmanyhours just to findout that I didn’t have achance of getting on theshow without a ticket.Plus, I must admit, I wasafraid of those people. Iwas afraid to get tooclose — they seemedcrazy to me. Why werethey out there? Howlong had they beenthere? Is it like this everyday? Who ARE thesepeople? We drove bythem twice, slowly, and Itook pictures. Some hadmatching shirts. They alllooked tired and haggard.They all seemeddesperate and sad. Wasthis accurate, or was Iprojecting because I wasunable to understand the“reasoning” behind thismadness? I had yet tofind out. At this point,though, we were readyto leave LA.Ron drove me upand down HollywoodBoulevard, and weappreciated the viewsans vehicles and crazies.While we drove, I brokethe silence. “I don’t getit. Wasn’t that weird?Who would do that, whowould SLEEP on aSIDEWALK just to geton a game show?” Ronreplied, “See, Barb, wedon’t think like that,because we don’t thinkabout free money.” Iunderstood what hemeant.

David helped mewith online research. Wewatched clips of the classicsand read interestingfacts about the show inits tri-decade run.Unfortunately, due to anonline TV guide error,we missed the lastchance to watch theshow before my secondtrip. Blasted! It looked asif I was going to go inhalf-blind again. At leastthis time we had a betterplan.We would be in lineat 4:00 a.m. Gettinganother hotel room atthis point seemed superfluous,so we decided toleave <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> at2:00 a.m. and drivestraight to the studio. Iborrowed chairs frommy best friend (therewas no way in hell Iwould consider a sleepingbag — I don’t evenOWN a sleeping bag)and stocked up onPowerBars and Rockstarbeverages. The plan —don’t get tired. Our beststrategy, even better thanthe caffeine pills Igrabbed at the store (-couldn’t tell you howmuch they cost, probablyaround two bucks),was to get some sleepbefore we left. So therewe were, 8:00 p.m., tryingto fall asleep at anodd hour to better preparefor the long dayahead. I was snoringbefore 9:00.den under the hoods oftheir jackets. They werewide-awake. Frederickwas animated andfriendly, and he was firstin line. I bid them goodmorning and askedthem how long they hadbeen there in thosechairs. “We’re tooembarrassed to tell you,”they said. “Come on,” Ipleaded, “it doesn’t matterto me. I’m here,aren’t I? At this ungodlyhour in the morning? Ihave no right to talk, sogo on, spill. What time?”Seven o’clock, thenight before. They hadparked their asses onthose chairs on the sidewalkoutside of the studioat 7:00 p.m. Tuesdaynight to be in line forWednesday’s taping. “Wehaven’t slept. We’reretired, have lots of time,drove here from Washingtonstate. Our wiveshave been sleeping in thecars across the way.” Alook across the streetrevealed a few sedans,windows covered withindiscernible, makeshiftprivacy screens.

the night watching thecars go by. Without theaid of mind-alteringsubstances, sounds like ablast. I thought of thelast time I stayed awakethrough an evening inHollywood and themany times my partiesbegan on a Fridayevening and ended on aSunday afternoon. Theseflashbacks would plagueme until midmorning.We took our place inline, the 36th and 37thpeople to arrive.In front of us wereScott and Greg, who hadgraduated from collegein Chicago on Saturdayand drove across thecountry, through Vegas,to make it to Los Angelesfor the taping ofTPiR on Wednesday.Scott’s fanaticism is notlimited to TPiR. Heinformed us that heonce spent the nightoutside a stadium waitingfor an autographfrom one of his favoritebaseball players. Scott isan avid White Sox fanand seemed offendedwhen I said I didn’t carefor sports, of any kind.I began to take stockof the crowd in anattempt to figure outwhom I was dealingwith, especially consideringthat I was nowgoing to be one of them.A group of kids withmatching trucker hatssat in a circle in front ofthe recent grads. I honestlycan’t rememberhow many snide (yetextremely funny) commentsI made about thisgroup. I couldn’t helpmyself. They were BEG-GING to be made funof. Scott and Greg wereamused, but I was doingit for my own amusement,not theirs. Westood outside, in thedark, in line, for twohours. We never evenopened our chairs. I hadsome fun commentingto our new friends aboutthe clan of idiots thatshowed up an hour afterus at the end of the line,each carrying a plasticlawn chair. The kindthat does NOT fold. Didwe miss a night of Practicality101, folks? Howthe hell did they fit thosein the car? There wasplenty to keep me occupied,and the first waitwent by fast enough.FRIGHTENINGFLASHBACKSThe gates were supposedto open at 6:00 a.m. AsThey had parked on thosechairs on the sidewalk outsideof the studio at 7:00 p.m.Tuesday night to be in line forWednesday’s taping.the darkness dissipated,I was unable to keepmyself from flashingback to Insomnia, a clubin LA that I used to frequenton Saturdaynights. Sunday morningwas always the same;after dancing for hours,sucking on lollipops,and kissing everyone insight (think ecstasy,think raves), just around6:00 a.m., hard-core partygoers,including me,gathered in front of theclub to select the nextlocation for our continuingparty. Even thinkingabout it now givesme a dirty, scuzzy feeling.The transition fromthe black, smoky boxfilled with music andvibrating glow sticks tothe first light of day, andthe harsh reality of seeingmy party pals in naturaldaylight with chemicallyenlarged pupils,was always freaky. Zitsappeared, things lookedmagnified, and peoplelost the magical appealthey had when we wereback in the club.I tried to conceal myhorror as I looked at ournew friends, their featureschanging in theemerging light. Notbecause of how theylooked — they wereattractive kids — it wasjust that sensation, thatvisceral memory ofdawn in Hollywood. Ick.I might have said aloud,“This feels like comingdown,” a sure way toelicit confusion from thestraights. These are goodboys. Marching-bandboys. I’m sure theywouldn’t know a drug ifit crawled up a strawinto their nostrils.The crowd in frontof us stood and startedpacking things away.Already standing, wesimply stared ahead,ready for the next step. Isent David to move mycar to the vehicle linethat was forming outsidethe gate. As hewalked across the street,a car drove by andhonked, which sparkedthe line to cheer loudly.Not two minutes later,another car drove by,honked, and the driverleaned out of his windowand screamed,“LOOOOSSSSEEEER-RRRRS!” followed bystaccato shouts, surelyjust unintelligibleinsults. I experiencedmixed emotions. I feltprotective of my line,embarrassed, and thensuddenly indignant. Thefunny thing is, the firsttime I drove by that lineand wasn’t a part of it, Ithought the samething — losers. But now,I was one of them. Noroom to talk. I didn’teven want to make funof them (and I make funof everyone, includingmyself).

smile of camaraderieand understanding.Another one of the crew.Part of the same team.We’re all here for thesame purpose, and that’sto see Bob. This left littleroom for individualsuperiority, as we’d eacharrived before dawn,and if you thought itwas stupid, you had nobusiness being there.But I did think it wasstupid. And I was there.Still, the excitement wascontagious. A small gateopened, and the line ofpeople began to move. Iwas nervous leavingDavid sitting in the car,but I moved along withWHO ARETHESE PEOPLE?By the time we pulledinto the parking lot andfound a sweet space afew steps from the sideof the building, the sunwas shining brightly. AsDavid was taking picturesof me with my sign(a large picture of myface, mouth open widein excitement, next tothe boldly printedwords, “I LOVE BOB!”),a security guard shuffledquickly over to us. “I’msorry, there are no picturesallowed on thepremises. I’m going tohave to confiscate yourcamera.” While I wasmarveling at the audacityit takes to snatchsomeone’s expensivecamera, David was moreconcerned about whatwas ON the camera.

understand how takingpictures of yourself inthe parking lot threatensthe studio in any way,but when Davidreminded me of thosepics, I chose to complywith the local rules.We were instructedto gather by the side ofthe building at 7:40 a.m.Now that we weren’t insingle file, I got theopportunity to size upmy competition. Allaround were big groupsof people with matchingT-shirts proclaimingvarying levels of love forBob. There was a littleslut with a punky tornshirt that appealed to“Uncle Bob” to make her18th birthday special bychoosing her. Cute.Accompanying the girlwas her mother, alsowearing a shirt withwords of devotion toBob in support of herdaughter. You’d havethought she was there tooffer her daughter assome sort of sacrifice toCBS. They just had thatlook about them. Thereseemed to be a lot ofbirthdays, a lot of biggroups, and a lot of collegestudents. The onlyMarine I was aware ofwas out of uniform,which probably cost herin the end; I read theylove to pick Marines inuniform.ORDERAND CHAOSAt 7:40, a short man in ared jacket began tospeak into a mike, hisvoice clearly blastingthrough a few wellplacedspeakers aroundthe building.

Ilooked on in awe.What was happening?Eight-something inthe morning, half ofthese people had hardlyslept in the last day, andyet the level of energywas off the charts! Randomcheering continuedto erupt around us. Iwas awake and full ofenergy, but I could notgenerate the interest toscream and yell in thewaiting area. Pages inred coats came downbetween the benchesand handed each personanother slip of yellowpaper with a number onit. We were told to disperseand return at10:00 a.m. David and Iretired to my car towatch a DVD on a widescreenlaptop (episodesof Ab Fab, if you mustknow). The rest of thewould-be contestantseither tailgated in theparking lot or wanderedup and down the attraction-freestreets surroundingthe studio. Itwas suggested manytimes throughout theday that we “visit the giftstore and snack bar.”When we returnedto the benches, the numberingsystem hadchanged. Before we dispersed,the red coats hadinformed us of thechange. To ensure cooperation,the bencheswere actually numberedwith the new system.This time, 1 to 44 wasagainst the black wall, 44to 150 was against thered rail, and the numberscontinued onbenches located on theother side of the building.There was a womansitting with her motherin the area where Davidand I should have beensitting. I explained to herthe new system. Shestayed there. Didn’tseem to get it. Iexplained again, said,“See, that’s why the ONEis on that side, and theFORTY-FOUR is on theother.” She and hermother were numbers43 and 44. They shouldhave been at the END ofthe bench. My patiencewas wearing thin. Sheasked me again, “Nowwhat…where?” Irepeated, “The ONE isover THERE by theDOOR to the STUDIO,and the FORTY-FOURis right THERE. THAT’S

P O L A R I Z E D®®in the last several hours,and support was growing.Loudly.RED COATSAfter receiving ourname tags and obedientlyslapping them onour left shoulders, wewere told that we werenot to leave the lot. Wewere to be back on thosebenches by noon.Trapped. Now our onlychoice for entertainment,shopping, andfood was the gift shopand snack bar. For somereason, nachos with chilisounded great to me,and we headed for thelong line. Eager for thefull experience, I also hitup the gift shop andpurchased a TPiR shirtfor my two-year-oldnephew. Like JaneGoodall studying wildapes, the red coats circulatedthrough the crowd,observing us. They werealready scouting for theafternoon’scontestants — lookingfor signs of enthusiasmand animated behavior.Every time I passed a redcoat, I put a little skip inmy step and widenedmy smile. I held my signhigh and engaged inenergetic conversationwith everyone aroundme, which wasn’t astretch for this loquaciousfreak. I can’t helpit, I’m a talker.But regardless of mypropensity for discourse,I also needed an escapefrom the energy. It wasjust so…fervid. Davidand I retreated to theside of the buildingwhere the benches wereempty and devouredour chili nachos. At aquarter to noon,wannabe contestantscame flooding back tothe benches. This wouldbe our longest wait ofthe day. Sitting acrossfrom us was a group ofblack women in matchingshirts, members ofMASK (Mothers AgainstSenseless Killing). Iassumed the organizationwas gang-related, asI had heard that term,“senseless killing,” usedin that context. Thesewomen were lively. Earlier,they had practicedtheir “Come on down!”runs with the truckerhatgang by announcingeach other’s namesexcitedly as the namedwoman jumped upscreaming in mock surpriseand jubilation andthen ran down betweenthe benches, acceptingthe encouraging handslaps of those she ranpast. I was content toimprovise if called as acontestant. I do my bestwork on the fly.I sat, holding mysign on my lap. Redcoats came down theline, asking each of uswhere we were from. Weanswered right on cue. Ithought my sign wouldgive me some kind ofadvantage. The red coatglanced at me. “<strong>San</strong><strong>Diego</strong>!” came flying outof my mouth. Heinquired about my sign,“Is that you on there?” Isaid, “Did you reallyhave to ask?” and hecontinued down theline.David went to therestroom. When hecame back, he told methat while he was standingat the urinal, an oldman sparked up a conversationwith him.

estroom. Rules like thisdo not apply when youare confronted with anelderly man fromFlorida who came toCalifornia for the solepurpose of helping hiswife realize her “life’sdream” of the “last 30years.” Ever the gentleman,David tossed traditionaletiquette out thebathroom window andconversed briefly withthe fired-up old fellow.Speaking of pee, Ihad serious issues withthe keep-your-ass-onthe-bench-for-certainperiods-of-timething.Every time they told uswe couldn’t leave thosebenches, I immediatelyhad to pee. I know, Ihave issues, but the dealis, if I’m in a situation inwhich I know I CAN’Tuse the restroom, I freakout about how long itwill be until I CAN usethe restroom, and I mostalways have to go until Ifind out WHEN I cango. Don’t ask. Poor Scottand Greg. They heardme bitch about havingto pee, wonder aloudjust when we could peenext, and so on. So therewe all sat, me obsessingabout when I’d next seethe toilet, MASK memberssinging what lyricsthey could rememberfrom “The Lion SleepsTonight,” a group ofteens cheering for NumberOne (Frederick),noise and chaos everywhere.What time is it?THE PRODUCERSIt was about 12:30 p.m.when the people on mybench were told to movedown. Groups of tenwere being called off tothe side to be “interviewed”by two producers.We stood up, moveddown ten spaces, and satagain. This time, I wasacross from the loudgroup of teens. One ofthe boys, commentingon my sign, said, “Whatwould you say if I toldyou I loved Bob too, butI mean, like, REALLYloved him?” My “gaydar”had been bleeping inthis kid’s directionbefore he had openedhis mouth; his spokenwords confirmed myaccuracy. “I’d say‘great,’ ” I answered.Fresh out of the closet,this kid was so intent onFORCING everyonearound him to accept hishomosexuality, he failedto consider that many ofus already did. Heturned his attention toDavid. “Actually, I don’tlike Bob, the name’s justsilly. David, on the otherhand, is a great name.”Noting his tactic, I said,“Hon, if you’re hot forSitting across from us was agroup of black women inmatching shirts, members ofMASK (Mothers AgainstSenseless Killing).my man, it doesn’tbother us. As a matter offact, David would beflattered.”Poor kid. He probablygets a lot of shit fromthe kids at school. Theguy to his left was shiftingin his seat throughoutthe conversation —uncomfortable with hisfriend’s brazenly queerdisplay. Now, I understoodthe gay kid’s attitudea bit more. He wasprobably on the defensivebefore they arrived.We continued to deflectmore in-your-face commentsabout his orientation,until I grew wearyof it and rested my headon David’s shoulder,shutting out the rest ofthe crowd by closing myeyes for a minute or two.Suddenly we wereup again, moving downten more spaces. I couldsee the group ahead ofus, just to the left, standingin front of the twoproducers. There was aLOT of cheering, andthe louder it got, themore nervous I became.I couldn’t cheer like that,I didn’t think I had it inme, it would seem socontrived, so transparent!I looked at mygroup, as energetic askoalas munching eucalyptus.Spontaneouscheering was not mygroup’s forte. After thegroup in front of usmade one last attempt toimpress the men whowould determine theirTPiR fate, they were ledout of sight — our timehad come. Feelingenthusiastically inadequate,I hustled to thespot in front of the producerswith my crew.We faced twomen — one with a clipboard,the other with abroad grin. The manwith the clipboard neverstopped writing. Theother man went downthe line quickly, askingwhere we were from andwhat we did for a living.His enthusiasm was cartoonish,and his reparteewas surgical in itsextraction of whateverbits of information hewas looking for.

information than therest of us, and as hisswan song before theanimated producerkilled him with inattention,he offered to playthe theme song of TPiRfor Bob on his saxophone.The producerresponded with a smilethat was difficult tointerpret and thenlooked at me. “I’m a paralegalfrom <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong>!”I tried to sound effervescent.He noted my sign,said dryly, “I thinkyou’re the only personhere who loves Bob.” Iwent along, “That’sright! I’m the ONLYone, I don’t think anyoneelse here loves himas much as I do!” (Iwouldn’t recognize Bobif he bumped up againstme in the supermarket.)Then he looked atDavid. David perfunctorilyoffered, “I’m a photographicartist from<strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong>.”The producer spentthe most time speakingwith Giovanni, thefriendly Italian pizzaparlorowner fromChicago. Come to thinkof it, the pages had givenGiovanni some extraattention as well. Now isthe time for me toexplain the process.During the long day ofwaiting, the pages surreptitiouslyselect thosethey think will makegood contestants. Thepages slip their selectionsto the producers,and in the brief “interview”with the producers,final contestants arechosen. All this beforeany of us walks into thestudio. I would haveplaced a bet at this pointthat Giovanni would becalled as a contestant. I’llsave you the suspense —he wasn’t.WHO BRINGSA SIGN?After our two-minuteinterview, we cheeredpathetically and tookour turn in the metaldetector. Here we had anear miss — myboyfriend wears a littlemetal chain collar, withan inscribed lock thatreads “Property of Barbarella.”If hundreds ofpeople were made towait while I searched forthe key to de-collarDavid, I would surely beexposed as the only personon the lot (red coatsexcluded) who did notlust after the grandfatherclock and the cottoncandymaker, was notprone to daytime reveriesfeaturing completewicker basket sets, anddid not lie awake atnight counting pieces ofmatching his-and-herlawn furniture. As if thefact that I was the onlyperson with a signwasn’t already a deadgiveaway. Anyone whohas ever watched theshow knows that theappropriate way to professone’s love for Bob isto emblazon an ill-fittingT-shirt and paradearound with the messageon one’s chest.Luckily, the detector wasset to jewelry mode, andwe were spared the spectacle.Secret identitiessafely stashed beneathour clothing, we continuedwith the group toanother side of thebuilding to wait yetagain.It seemed as if myass had been on onebench or another for aneternity.

➛pared to one man whohad attended 140 tapingsand who was finallycalled as a contestant forthe FIRST time on his140th appearance. That’s140 days of a person’slife, given to a gameshow. I can’t imaginethat he had a job, a life,anything to do at all. Butthat’s how these peopleare. Several people in thecrowd around me hadbeen there at least oncebefore.SHOW TIMEFINALLY! The doorsopened, and we wereherded into the studio. Iwas shocked at howsmall it was. I mean, like,itty-bitty, teensy-weensy,not at all like it looks onTV. The seats were low,and the stage was abovethe lower half of theaudience. Where were allthe showrooms? Thiswas just a tiny stage withthree signs, and the curtains,and the lights, andthe paint…is that GLIT-TER GLUE? The studiolooked as if it wereslapped together by afirst-grade class in the’70s or something. Wetook our seats in thethird row of the centersection near the rightaisle. We had no ideawho was going to becalled as a contestant.Scott was sitting tomy left. I was concernedthat he might piss himself,he seemed so shiftywith excitement. Thenew announcer cameonto the stage (I wassaddened to find outearlier in the day, via acouple’s matching greenT-shirts, that the oldannouncer, Rod Roddy,had recently passed).This new guy (Rich?)explained the process.He made us repeat afterhim, “Women kiss Bob.Men hug Bob. Men donot kiss Bob. DO NOTHURT BOB!” Apparently,Samoan contestantshave a tendency tobear-hug Bob, liftinghim off the stage, whichno doubt scares the livingshit out of him. Iwondered if the producersderived some secretsadistic satisfaction fromselecting Samoans ascontestants. He told ushow he wanted us to“Come on down” if ournames were called.“Jump up, and run asFAST as you can withouthurting yourself!”Enthusiasm is key, yes,yes, we get it. By now, Iwas exhausted. Twohours of driving. TENhours of waiting, gettingin and out of lines, listeningto stupid peopleask stupid questions, allthe interaction, waiting,waiting, waiting. I nolonger cared about theshow itself. Come tothink of it, I never didcare. I was curious, thiswas something to do,something toexperience.But thesepeople…this was theirdream. I tried to gainperspective. I thought ofhow I would feel ifMadonna and GeorgeMichael conferencecalledme to come overfor an intimate dinnerwith friends. Holy SHIT,this was a BIG DEAL tothese people. This guy,this Bob Barker, he islike their Madonna. Liketheir…their Oprah.Wow. By replacing theiridol with one of mine, Icould understand theendless enthusiasm. Iwas just trying to get ona game show. But theywere getting to be in thesame room as their idol,on the same set of theshow they’ve watched alltheir lives. This was big.And there he was!Rather than comingthrough the doors, histraditional entrance,Bob came walking downone of the aisles,between two sections ofstanding and cheeringfans, and for an 80-yearold,quite sprightlymade his way up thosestairs and onto the stage.Before we knew whatwas happening, theshow began! Mass confusionabounded, andwe could not hear thenames over thecheering — which waswhy, as was explainedearlier, they had peopleon each side of the stageholding giant cue cardswith the names thatwere being called. Icouldn’t see the cards.Every word, every soundeffect, was drowned outby the screaming andclapping, and I was onlyvaguely aware of peoplehopping up and runningdown the aisles. Whilethe noise was still deafening,the first productwas already beingannounced! I didn’teven know what it was!What? Aren’t we supposedto hear the specsof the product to be bidupon? What’s going on?The cheeringstopped abruptly (I wassitting so far up Icouldn’t see the“Applause” sign verywell, so I just followedthe crowd), and Bobblitzed the four ecstaticpeople standing beneathhim. “What’s your bid?”They threw out numbers,fast and quick, andI wondered if they hadeven heard what theproduct was.COME ON DOWN!So who did they call?The slut with the UncleBob shirt got up therepretty quickly. A young,sacrificial lamb on theAltar of Bob. Hermother must have beenso proud. Frederick!Number One!

I wondered if shewas wearing a bra,because those tits wereeverywhere — mightwant to wear some kindof protection on yourface if you’re going tocontinue to jumparound like that. She wasSO excited.

They continuedto torture us withWomen’s ClinicalResearch StudyIf you are a woman between the ages of 18 and 35,that “Applause” sign, andpeople onstage ranbehind the cameras,pushing their arms up inthe air, pleading for us tobe louder, more energetic.I’m sorry, Ithought, but I must nothave been at the samesnack bar, because thesepeople have obviouslybeen fed CRACK, and Ijust don’t have it in me.Yet I somehow managedthe strength to hold upmy sign and smile everytime the camera pannedover me (I can’t wait towatch the show and seehow stupid I look tryingto catch the camera’sattention with the onlysign in the audience).One woman made itup to the stage to play alittle game. She had tochoose between twoprices in order to winthe prize, which was awide-screen TV! Shechose the wrong oneand was devastated. Bobwas called to the side ofthe stage. The audiencewas still.

Coachella 2004COOLMOM,HOTSUNSHE SAID,“THIS SONGMAKES MECRY.” IN AMATTER OFSECONDS,SHE WASSOBBING. IMADE MOREDISTANCEBETWEENUS.When I was 13 years old and getting into the wholeBrit-pop scene, my mother began to enjoy mymusic. Most of my favorite artists — like Pulp, Blur,and Rufus Wainwright — are her favorites, too. After my firstyear away at college, my mother and I had grown apart. Wethought a day trip to Indio for the Coachella Music Festivalwould be a good way to reconnect. When I told her Radioheadand the Sounds were to play, she said she was in right away.On Saturday, May 1, we got up at 6 a.m. and were drivingeast out of Imperial Valley by 7 a.m. On the two-hour drivethrough the desert, I kept thinking of my teenage dream comingtrue: seeing Thom Yorke. As a freshman in high school, Istalked a sophomore who looked like him, an act that brandedme a “weird girl.” I was 14 years old when I heard OK Computer,and seven years later I am still a loyal fanatic.The car will break down.… Radiohead will cancel becauseThom Yorke has a sore throat.… The tickets in the inside pocketsof my worn-out beige purse are fakes.… Ideas swirled around mymind. I couldn’t believe I was going to see them.I love passing by the desert’s mountains; the quietness ofthe road, the stillness of the earth, and the browns and orangesof the boulders sweep me away. I was taking all this in on anempty stomach. We had planned to stop at a Denny’s on theway, but by the time we got off Interstate 10, there were signstelling us “Event This Way.” We followed the signs and parked. Isaw mostly young people, many of them shirtless and rubbingsuntan lotion on themselves. I did see a few kids with their worried-lookingparents. I think I heard people speaking Frenchand Italian. We grabbed our bags and towel and began walkingthe mile to the entrance.When we arrived, there were about ahundred people in line. It was 9 a.m.Two more hours until the gates opened. Iwas worried about Mom. She had astraw hat on, but her face was tomatored. She was worried about me. I didn’tbring a hat or a bite to eat. We found aspot of shade to spread the towel on andsit. My mom took out her Bill O’Reillybook and began to read. I didn’t knowwhat to do. I sat there watching the violetants on the grass and thinking what Ihad brought my mom to. She mightdehydrate before the music starts, Ithought.We got up at 10:30 to stand in line.We named our favorite episodes of Lawand Order to pass the time. I kept seeinglarge groups of tattooed people flock tothe truck that sold bottled water for twobucks.By the time we got in, we were starvingand sunburned. At the food court wewaited 20 minutes. We chatted for awhile in “Spanglish.” My mom said, “Tevoy a esperar en la sombra.” (I will waitfor you in the shade.) I responded,“Okay, I’ll get las papas y las sodas.”When people talk in this manner wethink: pick one language and speak it.But under that sun, even we were mixinglanguages. The girl in front of us keptturning around and smiling when we’dspeak español. My mom found someshade and stood there while I got thefood. The girl turned around and spoke,“Is that your mom?”“Yeah,” I responded.“I think that is so cool, that shecame with you,” she said. She told me shewas from Hawaii and she had come towatch Radiohead because the band hadnever performed there. We both talkedabout our favorite Radiohead albums.Hers was Amnesiac, mine Kid A. Beforewe went our separate ways, we found outwe shared the name Michelle.My mom and I grabbed our frenchfries and found a spot under a tent thatwas already packed with music loverstrying to survive the heat. We sat downand began to chow down, but the musichad started. Not far away the SectionQuartet had begun to play. The two violins,one viola, and one cello playerfamous for doing great covers were playingRadiohead songs. By the time theyfinished “My Iron Lung,” we got up toget a front-row view. They had been performingon the main stage, and theRESEARCH STUDIESHEPATITIS B DONORSURGENTLY NEEDED!!GIVE BLOOD OR PLASMA!$$CASH PAID$$OTHER PROGRAMS• ANTIBODY PLASMA • MONO• HEPATITIS A AND B • ANTI-D• DISEASE STATEHave you ever been toldthat you have an antibody?Let us know.CALL FOROTHERPROGRAMS.OTHERLOCATIONS• Colton, CA(909) 422-1370•Van Nuys, CA(818) 756-2080• Las Vegas, NV(702) 385-7337We are also looking forNORMAL PLASMA& WHOLE BLOODDONORS.TWO LOCATIONS IN SAN DIEGO• 2850 6th Ave. #111(619) 298-4011• 4402 Dayton Street(619) 265-0334REQUIREMENTS• 18+ Years of Age•Proof of Current Address• ID Required (Driver’s License & Proof ofSocial Security Number, e.g., employee paycheck)MAKE A DIFFERENCE!!For Plasma Programs Only: Bring this ad and receive a $5 bonus on your first successful plasma donation!Asthma?R E S E A R C H S T U D YYou may be eligible to participate in an allergy research study if you:• Are Age 12 to 75 • Have Been Diagnosed with Asthmaand Require Medication• Are Able to Visit the Clinic Up to 6 Times Over a 16-Week DurationDURING THE CLINICAL TRIAL YOU WILL RECEIVE:• Laboratory test results• Study-related medical exams • EKG and Spirometry results• Investigational medication during the clinical trialQualified participants will receive compensation for time and travel.Allergy & Asthma Prevention and Treatment CenterCall us today for an appointment: 858-271-1151.

Sounds were to follow.The Section Quartetended with the Darknesssong “I Believe in a ThingCalled Love.” I alwaysdisliked that tune, buttheir cover made mesing. After they weredone, they got off thestage and Franz Ferdinandplayed through thespeakers. We were standingin the front row, offto the right side. Therewas a teenage boy in armygreens and a brown backpackto my left. Hestepped back a bit and Ithought he was leaving soI made a movement totake his spot, but he wasn’tgoing anywhere.“Are you trying totake my space?” he asked.“My foot was asleep,”I sarcastically told him.“I’ve heard them all,”he said.I looked at my mom,who was looking at myforehead. She handed mesuntan lotion and toldme I needed a hat. Ipromised to get one afterthe Sounds. The musicstarted and I recognizedthe song: “Like a Lady,” asong I had been singingfor a year. The bandmembers came out oneby one. Maja Ivarsson,the lead singer, came outlast. She was wearing awhite dress, a blackjacket, and cowboyboots.After “Seven Days aWeek” and “Hit Me,”Maja took off her jacket.Pointing at the palmtrees she said, “What thefuck is this? We wereborn in the dark!” Majawas a star. She walkedaround the stage, clappingher hands andsquatting down once in awhile, showing herundies.The angry guy nextto me moved to thesongs at the same time Idid, and we sang everyword. If it weren’t forhim, I would have probablyjust stood there. Wedanced and bumped intoeach other and smiledwhen we ran into eachother. All of his friendsknew all the words, too,and soon Maja keptlooking over to our side.She never said anything.She just looked at us.After the Sounds, wewalked over to a tent sellingshirts and hats. Wewere a bit giddy abouthow good the show hadbeen, but I was willing topay anything for somethingto keep my facefrom peeling. I found asmelly straw hat with aflower on top for 15bucks.We walked over tothe second main stage,where the Stills wereabout to play. They weresetting up when we gotthere, but a large crowdhad already gathered onthe field. The Stills played“Changes Are No Good”and, my favorite, “GenderBombs.” All the while, awoman in a red, white,and blue bikini top wasdancing in front of us. Bythe end of the session,she had passed out onthe ground and peoplebegan fanning her withcardboard.My mom loves Beck.When he was added tothe Saturday lineup, wewere both ecstatic.Unfortunately, he wasput in a small tent; thousandsof people were tryingto get in. We werealmost inside before hestarted his set, but thecrowd was pushing. Wefelt claustrophobic andunsafe, especially whenthe people outside of thetent started to take thesides apart. People weresitting on the high polesthat held the tenttogether.The restless crowdincluded four very highteens in front of us. Thetwo boys and two girls,half naked and halfwayhaving sex, caught ourattention. The two coupleswere kissing eachother, then the two boyskissed each other whilethe girls pinched the peoplein front of them. Oneof them said, “Ssshh,there are moms here.”My mom lookedworried. She turned tome and said, “Scary,huh?” I looked at theboys and answered,“What, Americanyouth?”“No,” she saidand smiled. She meantthe tent that looked asthough it was about tocollapse. Before Beckplayed a chord we wereout of there.We bought a hot dogand sat down while listeningto Death Cab forCutie. My legs felt numband my stomach hadbeen grumbling. The airwas warm even thoughRESEARCH STUDIES54 <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Reader</strong> July 15, 2004DOES YOURTEEN HAVEPANICATTACKS?For no clear reason, does your teen often• Have chest pain or a racing heart?• Have trouble breathing or feel like he or she is choking?• Break out in a sweat, or have chills, or hot flashes?• Tremble and shake, or have numbness or tingling feelings?• Have a fear of dying, of losing control, or “going crazy”?• Feel sick to the stomach, dizzy, or light-headed?• Feel distant or numb—as if things are not real?If this sounds like your teen, you can do something about it.A healthcare company is looking for teens to take part in a clinicalresearch study of anxiety and panic disorder.

the sun was on its waydown. It felt good to sitthere with my mom. Ithad been a long timesince we had taken a roadtrip. We talked for whilebefore getting up.By that time, all thewater vendors had runout of ice and the bottleswere hot. We boughtsome anyway. I alsobought a souvenir, ashirt, and we headed tothe main stage, whereSparta was playing. Onthe walk there we saw abig circle of people lookingat something in themiddle. From a distanceit looked like nothing,but up close we saw theywere looking at bees. Theswarm flew in circles.Terrified, we decided towalk as far away as possible.That took us all theway to the left side of themain stage. No peoplewere next to the rail facingthe stage, so I stoodthere while my mom satdown on the grass andrested. It was 6:00 p.m.Radiohead was to go onat 9 p.m. Was I going towait here? Hell, yes.Sparta played a fewmore songs. The bandgot offstage, and a crowdgathered around me,waiting for the Pixies. Iwas saving a spot for mymom, but she was stillsitting down on the grass.Once in a while I wouldlook in her direction andwave.The Pixies came on.I had known about KimDeal and Francis Black,and I had heard some oftheir songs, but being soclose to the stage mademe a fan. The crowd wasloving it, too. My momwould later tell me shewas entertained by adrugged-out guy whodanced through thewhole Pixies set and sangevery word.While the Pixiesplayed, I saw Perry Farrellcome out to the VIP section.I took out my camera,but before I couldshoot, a girl with shortred hair and a sun tattooon her back blocked myview, taking a picture ofher own. A bit later wedid the same when MischaBarton was trying toget past security. No matterhow hard-core themusic fans were, they allturned around to take apicture of someone fromThe O.C. Jack Black alsopassed by twice.The girl with the suntattoo was Jen fromPhoenix. She told me shehad seen Radiohead eighttimes and had come witha group of people shehad met on the Internet.When the Pixieswere off the stage, mymom came up besideme. In a few moments, Ithought. Then it happened.Thom Yorke cameout. He was wearingjeans and a black shirt. Iwas in heaven. Theystarted with “There,There” and “2+2=5”from Hail to the Thief.From where we werestanding we could onlysee Yorke and JohnnyGreenwood. Once in awhile we’d see ColinGreenwood and his jollysmile.When “No Surprises”started, Jenturned around and said,“This song makes mecry.” In a matter of seconds,she was sobbingwith her face in herhands. I made more distancebetween us. I wasexcited to see Radioheadperform “Lucky” and “ICould Be Wrong.” Thecrowd sang along to mostsongs, especially “KarmaPolice.” Mom’s favorites:“Karma Police” and“Paranoid Android.”The kids screamedlouder when “Creep”began. After that nicesurprise, Yorke said,“That was for the Pixies.”The highlight for me wasduring the encore, whenYorke was at the pianosinging “You and WhoseArmy.” Radiohead wasworth the day in the sun.After the show, it wastime to walk the mile tothe car. Every five minuteswe’d turn aroundand say, “Wasn’t thatamazing?” The traffic wasslow, and we were soexcited that when we gotto Highway 111 we wentthe wrong direction. Wewere in Palm Desertwhen we noticed this.We turned aroundand stopped at a Denny’sto eat dinner. “So, who’son tomorrow?” my momasked. “Belle and Sebastian,”I said. She askedwho that was, and Istarted to sing the wordsto “I Fought in a War.”She knew who I was talkingabout.We hit the road ataround 2 a.m. My momwas at the wheel, but Iwasn’t a very good copilotbecause we got lostagain. Before we knew it,we were on our way toPhoenix. From the wronghighway, Indio sparkledlike diamonds. When wegot on the right road, Itook a picture of themoon. It lit the mountainsand our wayhome. ■— Michelle LaraRESEARCH STUDIESHeavy Drinkers Not Seeking TreatmentEarn compensation for completing a4-visit laboratory study of situationsassociated with drinking.This program does involve medications.Find out if you qualify for aresearch program that mayhelp you stop both habitsd t ta new life!Call Susan or Pollyfor more information:(858) 784-7867Department ofNeuropharmacologyFor Information call 858-784-STOP (7867) or visit http://gcrc.scripps.edu/dcpDo you suffer frommigraines?You may be eligible to participatein an investigational research studyof BOTOX for the treatment ofmigraine headaches.Bipolar Disorder StudySIGNS AND SYMPTOMS• Feeling down and depressed?• Lost interest in your normal activities?• Do you have uncontrollable mood swings,trouble sleeping, or difficulty concentrating?• Do you experience highs and lows?• Must be 18-65 years old• Must have had headaches for atleast 6 months• Must be in stable medical conditionQualified participants receive:• Study-related medications,tests and examinations• Financial compensation availableFor more information, please call:(888) 445-3350The Headache Centerof Southern CaliforniaIf you or someone you know is experiencingany of these symptoms, you may be sufferingfrom Bipolar Depression (also known asManic Depression).Affiliated Research Institute is conducting a research study for people withBipolar Depression.

UnforgettableTHE MARATHONS OF ’46MULE HILL: TO THE RESCUELate in 1846,Yeoman Joe Downey wonderedwhy the Portsmouth, “the finest vesselon the coast,”had anchored six monthsin <strong>San</strong> Francisco Bay,“while all the otherold butter boxes were sent to cruise andsignalize themselves.”America was at war with Mexico. Thatbattles were being fought, and “stirringbyJeffSmithL O N G - A G O S A N D I E G Oscenes enacted,” irkedthe Portsmouth crew.“We strove to contentourselves with the hopethat our time wouldcome.”It did. On December 5, the Captainshouted, “All hands up anchor.”White kerchiefs waved farewell fromshore. Four days later, “We were up toour eyes in soldierizing.”The 20-gun Portsmouth met withthe Sterling near Los Angeles. Dispatchessaid Commodore Stockton had fortified<strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> and awaited thePortsmouth’s arrival to commence hiscampaign against the Californians.The ship reached Point Loma latemorning, December 9. Baffling winds preventedentrance into the harbor untildinnertime. As the Portsmouth sailedpast kelp beds thick as islands and nearedLa Playa, a cutter from the Congressrowed alongside. News spread amongthe crew: General Stephen Watts Kearnyhad marched from New Mexico with100 exhausted dragoons. On December6, they had fought Andres Pico’sCalifornians at <strong>San</strong> Pasqual, a valley 35miles inland. At least 18 Americans haddied, and 17 were wounded. Californianshad suffered few casualties. Downey:“The fight took place just as the morningdawned.” The Americans rode halfthe night “in a cold rain, most of themso numbed they could with difficultygrasp their sabres; in addition, they wereeach lumbered up with an overcoat.”The battle had lasted half an hour.The next day, Pico besieged Kearny’stroops on a barren hillside five mileswest of <strong>San</strong> Pasqual. The Americans hadno food, so they butchered their mulesand ate the stringy meat.As soon as the Portsmouthmoored, the order came to“belay all,” eat a quick meal,and muster onshore. Thenthey’d join Stockton’s reliefexpedition to rescue Kearnyat the site — named for thesoldiers’paltry diet — knownas Mule Hill.Just after sundown, threecompanies assembled nearthe hide houses of La Playa:Marines, musketeers, and,in the rear, carbiners withpistols and pikes. Every manhad a cutlass.A whistle blew,and the squadron dog-trottedto Old Town in canvasshoes.“Of all the roads evertraveled by mortal man ona dark night,” says Downey,“this was one of the worst;for near a mile along thebeach, rocks and stones ofall sizes lay in every direction.” Small,unseen gullies caused “sudden death toa fellow’s face.”After the first mile, the whistle blewfor charge step. The group ran faster,stopping for occasional stumblers. Fiftyminutes later, an Old Town sentry shouted,“Who goes there?”“Friends — Portsmouths.”Stockton ordered marching rationsfor the newcomers: three pounds ofhardtack, three pounds of jerked beeffor every cotton haversack. Around10:00 p.m., December 9, the relief columnof 215 Marines and jack-tars, ledby Lt. Andrew Gray of the Congress,Andres Picomarched north through Rose andPeñasquitos Canyons.Turning sailors into instant soldierswas a new experiment. Many never foundtheir land-legs. Frequent spills resultedin mud-caked beards and blue jackets;canvas-shod feet ached. But Downeywas inspired:“It was a heart warming sightto see these brave men, most of whomhad in a manner unsexed themselves,and become what a Sailor hates most,Soldiers, upon emergency.”Lt. Gray — who four years laterteamed with William Heath Davis tobuild short-lived New <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> —went by the book. He marched the troopsQUOTATIONS:1. John W. Davis: “This hill was called <strong>San</strong> Bernardo, but we gave it the name of Mule Hill, on accountof having to subsist on our mules, for that was all we had to eat.”2. Marius Duvall: “I think it would not be a hazard of opinion to say that [Kearny’s dragoons]would have been overpowered and compelled to surrender.”RESEARCH STUDIES56 <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Reader</strong> July 15, 2004MedicalMarijuanaEvaluationsProtect yourself under Californiastate law.

throughout the cold night.They stopped at dawn,writes Marius Duvall, ona “freezing mountain.”Thefew who could slept on thepeñasquitos, the “littlestones” that gave the areaits name.The column tried tostay motionless, the day ofDecember 10, not to avoida fight but to surprise Picoat Mule Hill. But Duvall, thePortsmouth’s surgeon,found the camp “rather abad place to escape observation,on the top of a highmountain destitute of trees.“We lay on the groundall the next day, sufferingmuch for water, and duringthe night from cold.”They continued their trekat dusk.A dozen miles away,great crackling sentinelfires surrounded Mule Hill.Californians dined anddrank heartily. The soundsof laughter and the scentof roasted beef, waftingacross the <strong>San</strong> Bernardoriverbed, must have struckKearny’s famished troopslike buckshot.After three days withlittle food, water, or firewood— and 28-degreenights — Kearny had tochoose between starvingor fighting insurmountableodds. On the eveningof December 10, he passedthe word: in the early morningthe dragoons would“cut their way to the coast.”Around 2:00 a.m., themorning of the 11th,Kearny’s sentries heard arustle below Mule Hill. Asurprise attack? No. Morelike creaking cartwheelsand the tramp of soldiers’feet. Alerted dragoonsreached for rifles.“Who goes there?”“Friends…Americans!”Amid coyote howlsand hoots of joy, the reliefparty marched up MuleHill in square formation.Then ranks broke intohandshakes and backslaps.Caps spun in the air. In thedim campfire light reflectingoff large boulders, therescuers saw spectres: halffrozenskeletons in tattereduniforms. Few had overcoats,fewer had boots.Most of the wounded,lanced by Californian spearsand bandaged with the tornshirts of their comrades,had multiple gashes. MuleHill reeked of decay.The rescuers didn’tlook much better. John C.Fremont complained abouta sailor’s “habitual disuseof his legs.”The foot-sailorshad trudged a slow-motionmarathon through deepcanyons on two Decembernights. Wobbly, many“crippled up with sore feet,”they handed Kearny’stroops jerked beef, bread,coffee, and tobacco. Theyunfolded clothing and blankets.The dragoons returnedthe favor, offering the sailorssips of “gravy soup,” themuddy rainwater and mulescraps that had becometheir staple.After the greet-RESEARCH STUDIESDepression with InsomniaPoor Sleep?

The resthad vanished, leaving cattlebehind. Downey saysthe whoops of reinforcementsand “stacks of glisteningmuskets” scaredthem away. Not so. OnDecember 4, several LosAngelinos revolted againstPico’s superior, GovernorJose Maria Flores. Heimprisoned them andordered Pico to returnimmediately. Pico got thenews and headed northduring the night.At 10:00 a.m. December12,the300 soldiers,sailors,and Marines marched,closeorder,to <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> throughfields of wild oats. Kearny’stroops had departed fromFort Leavenworth June 29and had completed a 2000-mile, ragged exodus equalto — many say harsherthan — the Mormon Battalion’s.Mosthad never seenthe Pacific Ocean. As theycrested a hill near FranciscoAlvarado’s Rancho de losPeñasquitos,the silver-bluehorizon gleamed in the distance.“Lord,” shouted oneof Kearny’s mountain menwith opened arms,“there isa great prairie without atree!”The dragoons founda spring at Alvarado’s anddrank their first fresh waterin five days.Then they looted therancho. Alvarado had fledwith his family, leavingpigs, chickens, turkeys,sheep, goats, and a barrelof wine. Griffin: sinceAlvarado “was notoriousas an enemy” — a subjectstill open to debate — “wetook everything we wishedto eat, and the wine for oursick & wounded.”The looting became afrenzy. Lt.

“it was because there werenot enough to be put outof the world to be called bythat name.”Gray objected. Hepleaded with Kearny tostop the barbarity.“Yes, yes…I know,”said Kearny,“the poor fellowsare half-starved. Let’em run. They won’t killany more than they caneat.”Downey says the rancholooked hit by “a swarmof locusts.”Soldiers herdedup the remaining sheepand drove them to <strong>San</strong><strong>Diego</strong> the next morning.The column crossed “tablelands” (Kearny Mesa),descended Rose Canyonto False (Mission) Bay, andcaught their first glimpseof the fort on Presidio Hill.At 4:00 p.m. in pouringrain, 78 days after leaving<strong>San</strong>ta Fe, Kearny’s “Armyof the West”straggled into<strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong>.Lt W.H. Emory:“Thetown consists of a few adobehouses, two or three ofwhich only have plankfloors. It is situated at thefoot of a high hill on a sandflat, two miles wide, fromthe head of <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> bayto False bay.”Families took thewounded into their homes.Joseph Kennedy, his skulllanced five times, died thenext day. Edward Beale,who ran 30 miles fromMule Hill with Kit Carsonand an Indian to get help,received such “care andtenderness” from a localfamily, they “turned thecurrent of my life, for Idetermined to live amongthe Mexicans of California.”General Kearny was“ragged, begrimmed, andweary to the marrow. Theworst of his wounds” —in the groin — “was nothealing, and his last horsebackride had been torture”[Clarke].Emory — whose topographicalmap of the journeywas, the U.S. Senatelater proclaimed,“of toweringsignificance”— quarteredin the one-room, 40-by 30-foot adobe jail. Hepreferred the “open air andthe muddy plaza, saturatedwith all sorts of filth, tothis wretched hole.”Owingto frequent false alarms,Emory also complainedthat sleep was nearlyimpossible.William Heath Davis,the impresario whocofounded New <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong>with Lt. Gray, met withmany wounded. WilliamSmythe: “He says they allhad the utmost horror ofthe Californians. He spokeparticularly of one youngman who lapsed into deliriumduring his visit andcalled out in terror, thinkingthe Californians wereupon him.” ■SOURCES:1.

BURNTMEATWhen is a holiday not a holiday? If you’re a chef,the Fourth of July!I was in the parking lot of my bank, holding52 signed paychecks, a new peeler, and 25 plasticenvelopes used for receipts and deposits. Mythoughts wandered to the red (negative) balancein my accounting file and the discrepancy (positive)in my checking account. I hoped tonight’ssales would make a surplus, and I could breathefor another week.A man I’d met once (a friend of friends) andhis wife drove by in a minivan. They halted thevehicle and reversed.“Hi, we’re friends of friends. We hear you’rea chef.”“Yes, that’s me,” I say, trying not to soundrushed. We introduce ourselves, and I greet thechildren in the backseat, all peanut butter–pastedcheeks and sour-milk stench.“Would you like to come to dinner on theFourth? Sunday, around 5:00?”“No problem,”I say.“My partner and I will bethere. We’ll bring a bottle of wine.”“Perfect, see you Sunday.” Minivan acceleratesand launches forward. I drive to my restaurant, frettingthe figures.Another dinner invitation with friends of friendsand would-be customers. What will Jack say?My partner Jack and I have been together four-plus years.We live a mundane life, but some folks like to add color to adinner party by inviting us. It’s risky if we don’t know themwell. Do they know they’ve invited an alternative lifestyle todinner? That two people of the same sex might confuse themen in one corner, the women in the other? At first, the menwill look us over and ask about our lawn-irrigation system,How often are chefsinvited to someone’shouse for a meal?but soon they’ll be sizing up ourincomes. The women will nibble,comment, and chat about gettingtheir child into a better preschool.Here’s where the token gay man mentions addingbamboo flooring to the outdoor patio.What to bring to the party? Nineteen ninetysevenwas a good year for California Cabernet, anda ’97 Stags Leap is a quality wine — a clean, carefullymade, true Cabernet. Updating the restaurant’swine menu left six bottles at my disposal. Iwould age three bottles for a year or more and suckdown the other three on nights I wasn’t at therestaurant — just to see how the other half lived.When Sunday at 5:00 approached, I tuckedtwo bottles of the good stuff in the crook of eachelbow, hugging the bottles close to my body. I notedthe humid summer night, called for my honey tohurry, and off we went to Mission Hills for a mealwith our new friends of friends.How often do you think chefs get invited to someone’shome for a meal? You’re right — not often.But I enjoy someone else handling the food arrangementsfor a change, and I accept all offerings withoutjudgment. What I do in the restaurant is usemy skills to build my business. I need a competitivemenu to attract and satisfy customers. What Iexperience in a home kitchen is always appreciatedand gets my highest praise. I live by this credo, or I’d neverget invited back.Blonde stucco walls, Spanish-tiled roof, and a brightredfront door opened into a larger crowd than expected.“Oh great, you’ve got the wine!”said our hostess Jane.“Comeon in.”“Who are you here with?”“How do you know the dentist?”“Do you have kids?”… Just three of the questions firedat us before full introductions were made.

ought the party’s totalto 13.“Dick is burning theroast on the grill,”Jane saidto me, interrupting thecrowd in the hallway.“Can’tyou smell that smoke?”Feeling pressure byassociation, my partnerJack asked a nearby guestwhere he could get a drink.The guest asked the hostess,who pointed to the lonebottle of red wine sittingin the center of the diningroom table. Trying to spareanother guest’s gift, Jacksaid, “Oh, a gin and tonicis fine.”Jane answered,“Wedon’t drink hard alcohol,butwe do have red wine toshare. Where are the bottlesyou brought?”I followed my nose tothe back yard, where Dickwas standing in a cloudof smoke. He’d dousedthe string-tied roast inolive oil and was burningit, with the grill as hot aspossible. Orange flamesshot out from the closedlid, illuminating the smokycloud.What’s wrong here?First, a roast on the grill.A thick round roast willburn on the outside andremain raw in the center.Olive oil, with one of thelowest smoking points,should be avoided forgrilling (substitute peanutor vegetable oil,which workswell with high heat). Thehighest setting on a gas grillwill burn the outside withoutcooking the roastthrough to the center.I advised removing themeat from the grill andrepairing to the kitchen;this roast belonged in aroasting pan, not on anopen grill.And Dick neededto turn off the grill beforethe health departmentshowed up with gas masks.For many Americans,nothing beats a big, juicybarbecued steak. We havea need to char our meat ona back yard grill. The backyard may be the safest placefor burning pure-musclesteaks, but it’s not as safe forthick meats, such as a roast.I’m familiar with theterm “Gladiator of the Grill,”and the complications aregrowing.

Future FlockI’m not sure why the birds on the north island of the Coronados are making such a racket. They’re screaming soloudly it seems as if the noise should carry to Point Loma, 15 minutes away; the cacophony sounds like the bawling of ahundred angry human infants. From a boat, even just a few hundred feet offshore, the birds blend into the mottled cliffside of the island, a forbidding lump of rock that rises precipitously from the sea. But through binoculars I can see thatindeed this is a nursery. Sections of the cliff are covered with fuzzy baby pelicans, snowwhite ungainly creatures that have broken out of their shells only days and weeks before. Iknow they’re probably screaming because they’re hungry or for some equally prosaic reason,but this year, I’d like to believe the pelicans’ shrieks are a cry of victory.The Coronados are those jagged lumps you see onclear days when you look south out over the ocean, andthey’re also one of the only places where Californiabrown pelicans are born. Every spring the birds gatherhere and at the Channel Islands off <strong>San</strong>ta Barbara and ata dozen other havens scattered along both coasts ofBaja, where they perform the ancient acts that perpetuatetheir species. Chicks usually hatch between Marchand May, and the parents tend them solicitously forthree months; by midsummer most of the youngstershave flown off on their own. Great flocks of brown pelicansnested on the Coronados when the first curious<strong>San</strong> Diegans sailed out to them 90 years ago (before theMexican government declared the islands to be a sanctuaryin 1924). But 10 years ago the islands saw an ominouslydifferent scene; 1969 marked the pelicans’ mostsilent spring.The pelicanshad acquiredsomethingmore exotic —The large-billed birdsflew out to the islands that status as ayear and built their nests inthe scraggly bushes on the symbol in oneslopes of the southernmostisland. As usual, the females of the world’shad deposited their eggs inthe centers of the motley most dramaticcollections of twigs, andthe parent birds had preparedto cover them withbiologicaltheir four webbed toes (the controversies.pelicans’ standard methodfor warming their incubatingoffspring). But one by one, as they had settled downon the big white spheres, the parents found themselvesstanding in slimy pools of broken shell and yolk. MostBrown pelicangamely picked up the dripping messes with their beaksand flung them into the brush, only to try with a secondand third egg and to fail again. By May of that year, allthe adults had flapped off on their annual northernmigration, leaving on the island hillsides a biologicaltragedy.Though they flew off that year without young, thepelicans had acquired something more exotic — statusas a symbol in one of the world’s most dramatic biologicalcontroversies.

powerful than the coastalwinds. They were ridingthe currents of a growingenvironmental movementthat was to makethe pelicans its earlystars.Joe Jehl witnessedthe beginning of the pelicans’saga, and he recallsthat it all began quietly.Jehl is a lean, boyish manwith an incongruoushead of gray hair. Todayhe’s <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong>’s mostrespected authority onbrown pelicans, but inMarch of 1969 he hadonly an undistinguishedinterest in the big featheredcreatures. Jehl wasworking then as thecurator of birds andmammals at the <strong>San</strong><strong>Diego</strong> Natural HistoryMuseum when a Berkeleybiochemist andornithologist named BobRisebrough invited himto go on a trip surveyingpelicans on <strong>San</strong>ta Barbara’sChannel Islands.Risebrough had alsoHEALTH AND BEAUTYinvited a U.S. Fish andWildlife Service ornithologistnamed Fred Sibleyand another Natural HistoryMuseum ornithologistnamed Monte Kirven.Foul weather andthe <strong>San</strong>ta Barbara oilspill postponed the expeditionseveral times, butfinally the four menhitched a ride with parkrangers from the ChannelIslands NationalMonument and set offfor the traditional nestinggrounds on March19, 1969.Today Jehl works asassistant director for theHubbs Sea WorldResearch Institute (hewas the first scientist toquit the Natural HistoryMuseum during itsrecent administrativeupheaval), and he recallsthat none of the fourbiologists began theisland trip feeling particularlyalarmed. True, allhad noted minor warningsignals. For onething, they’d seen Easternbrown pelicans apparentlyvanish from theGulf of Mexico, wheretheir numbers at onetime had made them thestate bird of Louisiana.Jehl also says that a broadsurvey of seabirds of1967–’68 had countedvery few nesting pelicans,but even that didn’t seemcause for undue concern.“There’s so much fluctuationin biological systemsthat one year’s littleBotoxYears of Experience• FDA approved • Fast, safe, affordable • Unsurpassed resultsELIMINATESWRINKLES ANDFROWN LINESSUMMER SPECIALBOTOXTREATMENTSSTARTING AT$99PER TREATMENT AREAWITH THIS AD.EXPIRES 7/31/04.MicrodermabrasionNew Skin in 45 minutes!Call regarding 3 Great PlansFast • Comfortable • Affordable!AS LOW AS$49Reg. $99.

Call it a lingeringdoubt.” However, whenthe four scientists sailedaround the islands anddiscovered no signs ofnesting, their doubtsgrew. They finally locatedone colony on the peakof Anacapa Island. WhileJehl stayed in the lowerpart of the island to surveyother types of birds,the other three menscrambled to the summit,where they weregreeted by a scene ofutter desolation.“They came backwith bags of thesedeformed, thin-shelledeggs,” Jehl remembers.“And you didn’t have tobe a very smart biologistto know that somethingreally funny was goingon. If you walk into acolony and find a brokenegg or two, you can chalkit up to the gulls eating it,or you can think of somesimple explanation. Butif you walk into a colonyand find that just aboutevery egg you see is flatand collapsed anddoesn’t have any shell onit…” His husky voicetrails off. “It was incredible.We were stunned.”The group racedback to the mainland,and Jehl immediatelyheaded south. In <strong>San</strong><strong>Diego</strong> he grabbed a boatand motored out to theCoronados, where thescene was even worsethan that at Anacapa: outof 350 to 400 nests, noyoung survived. Furthersouth, on Baja’s <strong>San</strong> Martinand <strong>San</strong> BenitoIslands, the toll was lessdramatic but still abnormal.Everywhere, Jehlfound strange, deformedshells.

(a metabolic product ofDDT); fatty tissue withinthe yolks contained evenhigher amounts.At the time of Risebrough’sincriminatingdiscovery, the fortunes ofDDT had already slippeddrastically. In its youth,however, the pesticidehad been gratefully welcomed.Invented in 1939by a Swiss chemistnamed Paul Müller, thesubstance had quicklycommanded world attention;it seemed safe, easyto handle and mass produce,and capable ofsmiting a host of man’sancient enemies —namely, insects that carrieddiseases like malaria,epidemic typhus andtyphoid fever, and dysentery.Inthe testinggrounds of the SecondWorld War, DDT soonproved itself; before longthousands of soldiers andsailors were dustingthemselves and their personaleffects with DDTpowder as regularly andenthusiastically asteenagers applyingdeodorant. With thewar’s end and the chemical’sgeneral release, themiracles moved to aneven broader state; thepesticide saved countlesspersons from death andstarvation by increasingfood production. In 1948Müller ascended to thehalls of the Nobel laureates;by 1950 worldhealth authorities estimatedthat DDT hadsaved five million livesworldwide by destroyingmalarial mosquitoes.In the face of suchwonders, it wasn’t surprisingthat the first fewsour notes struck by thechemical sounded quietly.Yet gradually, overthe years, they built to adisturbing refrain. Hugedoses of DDT seemed tokill birds and fish as wellas insects; and evidencealso began to indicatethat the intensity of thepesticide magnified as itclimbed the food chain.There were several incidentslike the one thatoccurred at Clear Lake,California, 90 milesnorth of <strong>San</strong> Francisco.There a 1949 applicationof DDT killed 99 percentof the gnats, which hadplagued outdoorsmen atthe lake. Within fiveyears, however, the gnatshad returned. A secondapplication again killed99 percent of the pests,but this time they recoveredin just three years.

then that winter tragedystruck the area. Morethan 2000 Westerngrebes, a fish-eatingwater bird that lived atthe lake, began to die. Yetmystifyingly, the concentrationof the chemical inthe water was minute —only .02 parts per million.Then biologistsfound that plankton inthe lake contained 10parts per million of thepesticide, and fish thatate the plankton contained903 parts per millionin their fat. The fatof the meat-eating fishthat ate the vegetarianfish contained 2690 partsper million, and by thetime the grebes died,their fatty tissues contained100,000 times theconcentration of the pesticidein the lake.By 1962 the growingbody of evidenceprompted marine biologistRachel Carson torelease her famous attackon DDT, Silent Spring.The book opened thefloodgates throughwhich anti-DDT datapoured.

petrels, bald eagles, andperegrine falcons) hadbeen thinning graduallysince the Second WorldWar. So with the discoveryof the crushed eggs,the case seemed conclusive— the pesticide wasabout to claim anotherfeathered victim.Joe Jehl still remembersthe day in the springof 1969 when heannounced his ownstartling findings at apress conference at theNatural HistoryMuseum. He says onereporter from theEvening Tribune showedup, and the small storythat resulted was buriedin the sports pages. Butthe brown pelicans hadmore than their share offans, and concern abouttheir plight soon racedthrough the popularmedia. Jehl at least partlycredits that concern to anannouncement fromRobert Finch (then secretaryof Health, Education,and Welfare) inNovember of 1969. Finchdeclared that the federalgovernment would phaseout all but “essentialuses” of the pesticidewithin two years.Finch’s announcementdidn’t help the pelicansmuch the followingbreeding seasons,though. Jehl countedonly three to five youngthat year on the Coronados;he found none on<strong>San</strong> Martin Island andonly one on <strong>San</strong> Benito.Joe JehlOther observersannounced that theAnacapa colony had alsomet with total reproductivefailure. Jehl recallsthat at that time the scientificcommunity stillassumed the pesticidewas entering the marinefood chain as a result ofthe tremendous volumesbeing sprayed on croplandworldwide. “We figuredit was coming fromagricultural uses, floatingthrough the atmosphere,running off the land,then settling in the sea.”Unfortunately, that theorydidn’t explain whybrown pelicans on theeast side of the Bajapeninsula weren’t faringanywhere near as badlyas those on the Pacificside.

Whatthey couldn’t see werethe unhatched young.Since pelicans can live foras long as 15 years, itwould have requiredyears of breeding failurefor the numbers to beginthinning noticeably. Asthe controversy quickened,some challengedthe notion that DDT hadany effect on the reproductivefailures. Two <strong>San</strong>Jose State College biologists,for example,declared that intrudingenvironmentalists hadscared the pelicans out ofbreeding. Nationally, thepesticide’s defendersreached even greater dramaticheights. Onespokesman made a pointof publicly ingesting thechemical to prove it wassafe. Joe Jehl smiles sardonicallywhen he showsoff another particularlymemorable clippingretained from the dayswhen tempers flared thehottest. “Up withPeople — And Downwith the Venomous Foesof Chemical Pesticides,”reads the headline fromBarron’s, the weeklyfinancial journal. “Betterthings for better living,whether through chemistryor some other triumphof science, rarelymake headlines or winvotes,” the article flamed.“Without them, however,mankind never wouldhave climbed out ofthose wondrously naturalcaves.”Despite such incentive,1971 came as a turningpoint for the pelicans.In April of 1970 theLos Angeles DDT planthad begun depositing itsliquid wastes in a sanitarylandfill, and oceanicinput of the pesticidestarted to decline rapidly.By the very next breedingseason, egg shells foundon Anacapa, <strong>San</strong>ta Cruz,and North CoronadoIslands seemed noticeablythicker, althoughonly 42 babies developedthat year from 650 nestscounted. The politicalclimax to the saga cameon June 14, 1972, with anorder from WilliamRuckelshaus, head of theEnvironmental ProtectionAgency. He overturneda recent decisionof a federal hearingexaminer that DDT’sbenefits outweighed itsrisks, and he ordered avirtual ban on the pesticidein this country.And then the pelicanssurprised everyone.Jehl states, “We hadthought they had somuch DDT in their systemsthat it might take’em ten years to get rid of“One person in a pelican colonyfor ten minutes can be enough todestroy the colony for the year.”it, and by that time thesebirds, which hadn’t bredin three or four years,were going to be so oldand senile that theycouldn’t breed anyway.We had thought thewhole damn populationmight just go!” But theegg shells almost immediatelythickened, and thenumbers of survivingyoung climbed correspondingly.In 1973observers counted 134chicks produced from597 nests on the threebreeding islands(Anacapa, <strong>San</strong>ta Cruz,Let’s Get It StraightFor more than 30 years, plastic surgeon Dr. William Taylorhas helped people like you achieve beautiful new looks.Call today for a private consultation.Beautiful breasts • Fantastic face-lifts • Nice new nosesLegendary liposuction • Excellent earsLuscious lips • Much more!74 <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Reader</strong> July 15, 2004COSMETIC SURGICAL ARTSWILLIAM G.

Jehl, in fact, holdsa precious landing permitfor this expedition,but even he won’t ventureon to the northisland at this delicatetime. He explains thatone pelican parent muststay with each nest at alltimes to protect eggs andchicks from maraudinggulls and to shelter thetiny chicks from the sun.Humans entering thecolony would scare awaythe parent birds. “Oneperson in a pelicancolony for ten minutescan be enough to destroythe colony for the year,”the ornithologist says. Sohe settles for the roughcount from the boat.From the offshorevantage, he can’t see thethickness of the shells,but Jehl knows they haveremained at normal levelssince 1974, eventhough the success of thepelicans’ breeding hasfluctuated since then.Last year, for example,Jehl counted only 62chicks produced by 265pairs on the Coronados,but he says natural forcesare now causing thosefluctuations. He laughswhen he mentions thatpelicans still officiallyperch on the endangeredspecies list. “They’re notendangered today, not byany stretch of the imagination.They wereendangered because ofDDT. Now, they do haveproblems today becausethey’re dependent onanchovies, and theanchovy population hassome competition frombait boats. But if pelicansdon’t breed now, it’sbecause people are goinginto the colonies andbothering them, orbecause their food supplyhas disappeared.”Jehl’s pronouncementdisturbs me.Despite the pelicans’“All animals go extinct!”he cries. “All individuals die.All species die.

so wide that they seem towobble when they beat;who glide low and heavilyand smoothly like elegantpatrol planes; whocan climb so effortlesslyand then drop like stonesto the water surface, creatingsplashes so hugethat each dive is a separatecomedy. But apartfrom aesthetics, I wonderif it would have madeany real difference to ourhuman lives if pelicanshad simply vanishedfrom the globe? And howimportant was their victoryover the threat froma chemical pesticide ifthey’ve only survived toface threats from humandisturbances and dwindlingfood supplies?Jehl, glib and fasttalking,retorts that itwouldn’t really makemuch difference — environmentally— if all thebrown pelicans vanishedthis instant. He arguesthat what was importantabout the saga of thebrown pelicans was notthe “victory” of one individualspecies, but rather“Even if we become hip-deepin condors, there ain’t no place youcan put them in the wild ever again.”the defeat of an agentthat threatened an entirewildlife habitat. “All animalsgo extinct!” he cries.“All individuals die. Allspecies die. Even mansomeday will drop off theface of the earth. Whoreally cares? I don’t care,except as a biologist Icare that the process thatmakes species is allowedHEALTH AND BEAUTYto continue.”Jehl complains thatthis is where the environmentalmovement hasgone wrong. “We get soterribly concerned withlittle dickey birds andsnail darters, and we losesight of the big picture.”He worries that such narrownessmay ultimatelydefeat environmentalists.“I don’t think that thespecies-based approach isa sound biologicalapproach. I think it’sabsolutely self-defeatingbecause it gets you intosituations like whatyou’ve got with TellicoDam and the snail darter.Put the dam and the snaildarter up to a vote, andnine-to-one the publicwill say build the dam —who cares about the snaildarter? — because we’vebuilt this fight on onesilly, insignificant fish,which if it drops off theface of the earth tomorrowreally doesn’t makeany difference.”The Art ofPlastic SurgeryTUMMY TUCK“I feel so fortunate to havehad somebody who not onlyperformed my surgeryexceptionally well, but alsodid it with compassion. ”— PATTYD.

Jehl says thequestion is, “Should wespend millions of dollarscatching these birds,putting them in captivity,and raising them? Doyou put a lot of moneyinto saving this species sothat what you have iscondors in captivity?How much money wouldyou pay to see adinosaur?” he asks flippantly.Then he answershis own question, halfseriously. He says maybeit’s worth a lot to people.So maybe we should havedinosaurs — orcondors — in captivity.But there’s one thing toremember. “Even if webecome hip-deep in condors,there ain’t no placeyou can put them in thewild ever again. There’sno chance that they couldever be released into thekind of habitat theyneed, because there is nosuch place in the worldanymore!”The banning ofDDT preserved a habitatthat ultimately affecteddozens and maybe hundredsof species; a habitatso large and crucial thatit ultimately may haveaffected man’s survival.(Evidence had been gatheredindicating that thechemical decreased photosynthesisin plankton,the primary source of theworld’s oxygen.) Jehl saysit was a victory for thepreservation of basic biologicalprocesses. “Whatbothers me is that theprocesses ought to beable to go on at a rate atwhich animals can betested. Environmentschange and dinosaurswent extinct. We don’tknow why they wentextinct, except that basicallywhat happened isthat they weren’t able tocope with what happenedin their environment.They couldn’tmake it. I don’t careabout that. But if you putDDT in and the animalshave a ten-year life span,they don’t have a chanceto develop resistance tothat. And it seems to methat our role asbiologists — or just asinhabitants of theearth — is to make surethat the changes we areinflicting on the worlddon’t come at a rate thatdoesn’t give the animals achance to cope.” ■— Jeannette De WyzeOriginally published in the<strong>Reader</strong> on April 19, 1979.HEALTH AND BEAUTYCure Hair Loss...BEFOREPermanentlyAFTER80 <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Reader</strong> July 15, 2004Call Now for Our Summer Specials!Call toll-free866-301-3498• We offer both surgical and pharmaceutical treatments for hair loss• Hair transplants using single follicles for the most natural results• Unparalleled artistry and angular placement to maximize appearance• Permanent growing hair is grafted to replace what has been lost• Natural results are our #1 priority, as your image is extremely important• One Day in the Chair, a Lifetime of Hair!SUMMERREADER SPECIALCall now for a complimentaryPhysician Consultation.3,000 Grafted Hairs * for just $2,900 total!No additional charges for anesthesia, O.R., medicines, follow-up, etc.CosmeticMedicalCenterBrandon M.

Atsome point in our recenthistory a mutation has occurredthat has made practicinglaw the most hatedprofession, at least in thiscountry, and we have lostour rights guaranteed underthe Eighth Amendment tothe Constitution.It now costs so muchmoney to have our speedytrial by jury that it is cheaperto settle out of court. Theslick thing is that it doesn’tmatter if one is guilty or notguilty of a crime; you oryour insurance company canexpect to pay damages tosomeone and their attorneywhether they were wrongedor not. To cash in, all that hasto be filed is a lawsuit, throwin a few catchall phrases like“pain and suffering,” andthe money comes rolling in,guaranteed.Do you think an attorneycan practice law nowwithout ever going to court?You bet!

did ride the route on a bicycle.(2) Directions were as clear asI could make them, given thecolumn’s space limitations.SophisticatedProfessionalsI am very disappointed tosee a review from someonewho is jumping to conclusionsabout a wonderfulrestaurant that has been aninstitution here in <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong>for over 70 years (RestaurantReview of Red Sails Inn,July 1). My husband and Iare well traveled and haveeaten in the finest restaurantsin <strong>San</strong> Francisco, justlike Naomi Wise. New Orleans,New York, Chicago,cruise ships, etc., etc.You cannot compare aplace like this to Donovan’sor 910. The freezer that tookWise aback is actually also arefrigerator used to storefresh fish. The steak andlobster are superb, and Ihave enjoyed them thoroughly,and it is always consistent.The day after we returnedfrom New Orleansand had fresh shucked oysters,I had some at the RedSails Inn, and they were delicious.If some of the itemsneed to come from a purveyor,so be it. We were theretoday for our usual Sundayeggs Benedict, scrambledeggs, and champagne, andwe wouldn’t trade it for theworld.We are both sophisticated,hardworking professionalswho could go anywhere,but we choose to gothere. The waitresses arecordial, pleasant, and wantingto please. The clienteleis from families with newbornsto senior citizens. Iam offended by your givingone and one-half stars (acceptableto good). Despiteyour review, we will continueto patronize Red Sailsbecause of the ambiance,service, beautiful venue, andjust plain good food!!!!!!!Melody and Dave Millervia e-mailSweaty PalmsDuring a trip to <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong>this week, I picked up a copyof the <strong>Reader</strong> and foundDick Jensen’s letter (July 1)of special interest, as I graduatedfrom SDSU in1967 — also with a degreein history.In the 2 years before mygraduation, I took the coursesin residence which I neededto complete in order to graduate,for I had been takingcollege work for 16 years,including correspondencecourses from UC Berkeley.We lived in Blythe then,and most of the time I commuted— by Greyhoundand by a little plane thatcarried bank papers fromthe little branches in thedesert to the main one in<strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> — after the carbroke down.I was taking five historiesat once — and as often as Icould I took writing coursesfrom Noel Loomis — sinceI had already been sellingmy writing for a long time.So since I had six childrenat home, my study time waslimited — as I took toomuch work in my haste toget my degree.Unfortunately, I had totake a required course fromDr. Starr, for I had alreadybeen in another class of hisand we had clashed.He frightened me so muchby his yelling that the palms ofmy hands would sweat as Ilistened to his tirades. Thenhe told me that I was thesecond-worst student hehad ever had (number onewas a guy in the same class).He also told me that Iwould never make a historian,as my writing wasn’tscholarly enough. He advisedme, “Go write for awomen’s magazine.”I took his advice, and afterI graduated I went towork for a while on the staffsof True Romance and TrueExperience in New YorkCity. Then I returned to thedesert and, giving up on beinga historian, I went towork hauling cotton to thegin and grain to the feedyard.Years later, I met Dr. C.L.Sonnichsen, who assured methat I could contribute tohistorical studies. So I beganto research and write(and sell) true stories of thepast to such magazines asTrue West and Arizona Highways.At the time, I felt discriminatedagainst by Dr. Starr,although I didn’t know if hedisliked me because I was anolder woman or because Iwasn’t doing top-qualitywork. However, it was no secretthat he invited the studentshe liked to his apartmentfor special tutoring.At that time, the class —and the campus — was fullof male students avoidingthe draft by going to school,so I suppose I should havetaken less hours of work.However, I was facing divorcein the near future, soI wanted to be able to get adegree in order to supportthe kids.In my estimation, Dr.Starr was one of the worstteachers I ever had, even ifhe did know a lot abouthistory.Ruth Burke<strong>San</strong> Simon, ArizonaNot So ClosePlease check Ben Stein’sHow to Ruin Your Life andHow to Ruin Your Love Lifeout of the local library; thenyou can figure out exactlyhow close Michael Ryancame to plagiarism in yourJune 24 issue (“How to GetDivorced”).P.

facts straight. His interviewwith Dan Rock and BrianMcAlpin made it seem as ifPsychotic Waltz, in whichI was the drummer, was aband that never left theirpractice room in <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong>and never accomplished anythingworthy of mention.First, let’s define “makingit” in the world of undergroundmetal bands.Most metal bands are onindependent record labelsand usually fall under thecategory of cult status. PsychoticWaltz was such aband.Very few metal musiciansever make a living byjust being in a band. Bandssuch as Iced Earth, Cradleof Filth, Dream Theater,and Slipknot are some ofthe very few that make a living.These bands make theirliving selling out large clubsand small theaters. And aneven smaller minority ofthese heavy bands, such asOzzy Osbourne, Metallica,Iron Maiden, and Pantera,are ever able to fill arenas ortop the charts. Bands likeNevermore, Mayhem, andCage are all very popularmetal bands that are forcedto have day jobs when theyaren’t on tour or recording.One of the main thingsBoard failed to mention wasthe success that PsychoticWaltz did have. We were ina band that had four criticallyacclaimed CDs. Whenwe first started in 1990, wesold 2000 copies of ourdemo CDs out of my bedroom.We went on to playfestivals in front of 30,000people, after licensing ourfirst self-financed CD, A SocialGrace, to German labelRising Sun. We financedthis album by selling outclubs as well as selling demoCDs and T-shirts at the oldSoma and Club Rios righthere in <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong>.We recorded our secondCD in Germany with progressivemetal producerRalph Hubert (MekongDelta). We lived in Germanyfor three months ina 1000-year-old castle andtoured successfully for ourInto the Everflow CD forsome time before it evencame out. In total, we endedup touring Europe nine separatetimes.Our album Mosquito wasrecorded at Chick Corea’sMad Hatter Studios withlegendary death metal producerScott Burns (Sepultura,Cannibal Corpse, Deicide,Death, Cynic). ScottBurns went on to produceour final album, Bleeding,which resulted in a tour ofEurope, a music video thatwas on rotation on VIVA(the German equivalent ofMTV), as well as a livebroadcast performance forGerman television. Ourcombined sales on all fourof our CDs at that time was100,000 worldwide.Board, McAlpin, andRock also failed to mentionthat Metal Blade Recordsrecently bought the rightsto and released all four CDsin two CD box sets, with linernotes, rare photos, demo material,and DVD tracks of ourperformance at the old Soma(CD-release party 1992).Once again, the <strong>Reader</strong>’sjournalists have failed to attempta nonbiased job ofrepresenting this band inprint. In your article, youmistakenly compare me toJohn Cusack’s character inthe movie High Fidelity. Iwonder what you base thiscomparison on, seeing ashow I refused your interviewand therefore youknow nothing about mycurrent self. Also, I suggestyou spend less time thinkingof clever allusions tomovie characters and moretime doing background researchon the subjects foryour articles. You also compareme to John Lennon,using a quote that I gave the<strong>Reader</strong> years ago, and onceagain take it out of propercontext. I never said Iwanted to be John Lennon. Isaid what any 21-year-oldaspiring rock star says, thatwe just wanted to be rememberedin rock history. Ibelieve we will be remembered,if not in Americanrock history, then definitelyin European rock history.I’m not bitter at all. Angry…yes.I’m angry aboutthe continued one-sidedjournalism that has plaguedthis band’s career as well asthe need to personally attacksomeone who’s workinghard to better himself.I bought a record storeso that I could play drums everyday. I spend three hoursa day working on my technique,practicing with mynew band, Broken Foundation,twice a week, and I playdrums faster and harderthan I did when I was in my20s. Owning Blue MeannieRecords has given me theopportunity to pursuemany things. I’ve cohosteda heavy metal show on Rock105.3 on Sunday nights forthe past six years. Throughthis, I’ve helped local bandslike Cattle Decapitation, AsI Lay Dying, Cage, AccidentExperiment, and Stretcherget airplay. I have also donea bit of concert promoting,helping to bring bands likeCannibal Corpse, King Diamond,and Kreator (just toname a few) to <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong>. Iam a pivotal part in the <strong>San</strong><strong>Diego</strong> heavy metal community.I am living the rockstar life that I’ve alwaysdreamed of; how can I bebitter?I think you’re the onethat’s bitter and angry, upsetthat I refused your interviewand therefore felt theneed to practice poor journalisticintegrity and attemptto degrade my personfor all of <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> toread. I apologize if my refusalto be interviewed byyou caused you some innerturmoil that caused you tofail in your attempt at unbiasedjournalism.Living Well,Norm LeggioMissed Funky SheepHallelujah! “Sheep andGoats” has wandered backinto the fold.

Soto’s 12-minute short, 33 1/2, which he describedas “a romantic comedy set in TJ,” will beshown at the Museum of ContemporaryArt <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong>’s Second Annualalt.pictureshows next Thursday. It’s partof an evening’s worth of low-budgetshorts, 18 in all, by filmmakers living in<strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> and Tijuana.Over 700 people attended theinaugural alt.pictureshows on July 3.The museum’s downtown location wasits first venue.LOCALEVENTSThis time, themuseumthought thatthe event wasready for itslarger space, said curator NeilKendricks. It will take place in La Jollaand is set to coincide with Comic-ConInternational at the convention center.The main character of Soto’s 33 1/2is a female DJ who discovers lovedespite her unwillingness to conformto the demands of macho culture. “Shedresses how she wants to dress,” saidSoto. “She eats what she wants to eatand says whatever she wants to say.There’s a scene where she eats 60Twinkies. You know, society would sayshe’s not allowed to eat 60 Twinkies.Let me tell you something: eating isgood!”The action occurs in the midst ofthe TJ music scene. Asked to describehis impressions of that scene, Soto said,“You can go to a rave, an electronicmusic party, right here. But when youleave you see poor people, homelessmen, and things you wouldn’t expectfrom a city where people have themoney to party.”But Soto qualified his remarks,saying he is somewhat out of touchwith the scene these days: “I made aresolution three years ago. Right nowmy priority is to do my art and to makeAaron Sotoit big. I am always working now. This ismy life. I am 32 years old and havealready partied enough.”Soto’s first moviemakingequipment came to him secondhand.“This is one advantage of being close tothe border,” he said. “What’s thatphrase about the garbage of somebodybeing gold?” One man’s trash isanother man’s treasure? “Exactly! Wecan afford to get things to make ushappy just by crossing the border. Ibought a three-dollar Super-8 cameraat the swap meet in Spring Valley! Thatwas when I was 15 years old. And nowlook at me! I am making movies.”Well, it wasn’t quite so easy asthat. Soto used to work selling nachosand hot dogs at that weekend swapmeet. Making $50 a day, he managed toearn enough to pay for school atSouthwestern College, where he usedthe school’s editing equipment beforehe could afford his own.One of his coworkers at the swapmeet was Aldo Guerra. A Tijuanaperformance artist, Guerra appearswith his collaborator, Azzul Moraz, inanother Soto work to be screened atalt.pictureshows next week. It’s a sixminutemusic video called Ulysses andfeatures the music of Nortec musicianMurcof (a.k.a. Fernando Corona, theelectronic-music composer andproducer).Ulysses is in the computer-art stylefor which Soto is at least locallyfamous. It also exhibits another of histrademarks: apocalyptic overtones.Soto’s breakthrough film, the 16-minute Omega Shell, shown at the firstalt.pictureshows, is “about the end ofthe world,” said Soto. Made for a totalof $200, it is “a combination ofcyberpunk and horror.”Tijuana itself, Soto said, is “verypostapocalyptic,” combining as it doeselements of thefirst world andthe third: “JulesVerne wrote thatat the end of theworld the onlypiece of landthat’s going to beleft is this area,between Tijuanaand L.A.”But Sotoisn’t a gloomyguy. Although henamed filmmakerAlexandroJodorowsky as one of his greatestinfluences (“He is the man. He’s likemy master. I met him last year atComic-Con”), he also named Grease.“When I was a little kid, I went to seeit! I was inspired! I was only five yearsold. It was natural for me to like thismagical musical. Of course, when Igrew up I started to see movies byfilmmakers like David Lynch andDavid Cronenberg. And that’s the kindof shorts I started to make.”The short about the female DJthat alt.pictureshows attendees willsoon see is a departure for Soto.“Between you and me, I wanted to dosomething that isn’t dark and obscureJacqueline Solorzano in Aaron Soto’s 33½and bizarre, because I also love movieslike Sixteen Candles and Pretty in Pink.Sixteen Candles rules, you know? AndI’ve never seen anything like that whichis also about TJ.”So far, Soto has completed abouteight shorts and one feature-lengthfilm. He is working on his secondfeature now, about growing up on theborder in the 1980s. “I’ve done a lotwith nothing,” he said, “and that’s whatTijuana represents.”— Jeanne SchintoSecond Annual alt.pictureshowsThursday, July 227:00 p.m.Museum of Contemporary Art<strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong>700 Prospect StreetLa JollaFreeInfo: 858-454-3541 orwww.mcasd.org<strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Reader</strong> July 15, 2004 85

Poetry International 7/8,2003–2004Fred Moramarco<strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> State University Press;450 pages; $12.Last week, Fred Moramarco andBruce Boston, editor and managingeditor of Poetry International,an annual poetry journalpublished at <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> State University,talked about their justpublishedissue, featuring contemporarypoetry from the“English-language diaspora” —poetry written in English fromAfrica, Asia, Australia, Canada,the Caribbean, Ireland, the UnitedStates, and the United Kingdom.Fred: You know, another aspect of the magazine I think that weshould say something about probably is the art.Bruce: One of the exciting moments for me was discovering DeeRimbaud’s work. And actually holding in my hands some of theoriginal pieces that were sent from Ireland, from New Zealand,from other places around the globe. And the art is a really powerfulhuman expression in this issue, just as the poetry is. Oneof the things you might want to talk about is the fun you had deconstructingor interpreting the symbolism of Dee Rimbaud’spaintings.F: Well, the cover is very striking to me — it’s a picture calledThe Witchfinder General. And it shows a little kinglike figurewith a long Pinocchio-like nose carrying an umbrella and holdinga lit candle. It’s in bright red and yellow colors. The wholething is very fiery — the little king holding an umbrella, and there’sa moonlike face sitting in the middle of a planter in front ofhim. And there are various architectural structures in the background,and you’ll notice some of them look kind of Asian andsome of them look kind of Moorish, and the umbrella looks alittle Asian. I thought you could interpret this as the king beinga figure of English royalty, somewhat diminishing England, theshort king with a big nose, which is for the lies of colonialism,in a sense. And the umbrella is the language that is shielding thecandle here, preventing it from going out. This is just a whimsicalkind of interpretation, but Dee Rimbaud’s art is in factvery whimsical. I think he’s a great discovery. You can see aremarkable range of his drawings on the Web (http://homepage.ntlworld.com/dee.rimbaud/).He’s not the only artist that we have in the book, but his artcomplemented the central idea, this vision. I’m happy that wegot art from each of the regions involved to introduce each separatesection. For example, the African section has a painting byMohamed Buwe Osman, which is a painting of the continent. Itlooks like the continent of Africa, but if you look more closelyat it, you see it has three African faces contorted in the shape ofthe continent. And the painting is called The People of Africa. So,it really relates both to the poems and to the sense of nationalconsciousness that we were trying to get across in the book.B: Mohamed Buwe Osman is also a physician.F: I didn’t realize that... As people read through this issue, I thinkthey can get some sense of how the English-language adapts tovarious cultures. And the English-language poetry from Africamay be really the best example of that in some senses. Becauseit adapts the different cultures, but it also fuses with those cultures.That is, it becomes the vehicle for the expression of thosecultures. There’s a poem, for example, by Abena Busia, a poetfrom Ghana, who now teaches at Rutgers University. So she’s livingin the U.S. right now. But the poem is called “Caliban.” It’son page 17 in the book, and it’s a very short poem. I like it becauseit gives a sense of the “language of the masters” that we’ve beentalking about.B: Right. And her allusion to The Tempest. That figure is stilltimely and controversial because there are so many interpretationsof Caliban’s character in the context of colonialism becauseCaliban was enslaved by a European ruler in The Tempest. He hasbecome a representation of colonial enslavement for readers in(continued on page 98)town, and a Lockheed Blackbirdspy plane — 1400 scale models,10,000 aviation-related items, andmemorabilia from Montgolfierhot-air-balloon era to Space Age,along with an InternationalAerospace Hall of Fame.The museum is located in theFord Building in the Palisades area.619-234-8291.

(continued from page 97)a multitude of cultures, includingour own. And of course,he’s the creation of a Britishplaywright and poet.CalibanThis tongue that I havemasteredhas mastered me;has taught me cursesin the language of themasterhas taught mebondagein the language of themasterI speak thisdispossessionin the language of the masterF: Really a striking poem. Andthe repetition of that phrase, “thelanguage of the master, the languageof the master, the languageof the master.” Really,very powerful because it’s theparadox of having masteredthe tongue. She not only speaksEnglish, but she’s become apoet in English. This is a personwho is really at the cuttingedge of the language, and yetit is the language of the master,not her own. It’s really aninteresting paradox.Bruce BostonB: Those phrases, those repetitionsare almost like the lashingsof a whip.F: Yeah. You know one of themost impossible tasks that wefaced was putting together aselection of U.S. poetry becausewe wanted to have some senseof representation in the volume.We asked each of the editorsto bring together a selectionof poems that would be representativeof the broad range ofpoetry being written in Englishin their particular cultures.When we tried to do this forthe U.S., I think we realizedwhat an impossible task this is.What did you feel about theU.S. selection?B: Well, I’m delighted with it.I’m very happy to have RuthStone in the magazine [see “Untitled”on page 96], Gerald Sternin the magazine, Kim Addonizioin the magazine, Luis OmarSalinas, John Ashbery, MariaTerrone, Gary Young, all ofthem. And one aspect of it that’sas powerful as any other is thepresence here of three differentliving generations of superbpoets in the United States, somehowrepresented in 36 pages.F: I feel the same way. We couldjust as well have had a selectionmade up of a dozen differentpoets. And it still wouldhave been representative — orwouldn’t have been representative,depending on what youthink “representative” means.B: In some ways, the selectionspeaks to the richness of thepoetry in our lives now, thatincredible diversity. You’re right,we could have chosen a hundreddifferent selections 36 pageslong and still have had the excitementof that kind of discovery.F: It was impressive when itfinally came together. I love thework of the oldest poet in ouranthology or the oldest in theU.S. selection. I’m not sure ifshe’s the oldest in the wholebook because this is a worldanthology. But her untitledpoem is a very touching poem.B: I think Ruth Stone is one ofthe most powerful poets we’veever had. I met her. CharlesWright invited her to UC Irvinewhen I was in the Writer’s Workshopthere, and she gave a guestworkshop. She was just marvelous.She brought a joy and“Elizabeth Bishop tellsus that the ‘one art’ weneed to master in life isthe ‘art of losing.’ ”generosity and luminous clarityto what we did that day thatwas as memorable as anythingthat’s ever happened to me ina classroom.F: When was this?B: This was the spring of 1970.F: She was still in pretty goodhealth at that time.B: She seemed just fine.F: Because this is a poem thatdescribes losing one’s eyesight.And she has been going blind,I understand.B: She had already lost her husbandby the time I was in thatworkshop, a loss she has beenexploring for most of her career.It was a blessing to be with her.F: Most of her poetry is aboutloss of some kind. And maybea lot of the poetry and art in themag is about loss as well. ElizabethBishop tells us that the“one art” we need to master inlife is “the art of losing.” It’s notsurprising that so many of thepoems in the book deal with itin some way or another. Eventhe art, which is often aboutwhole lost cultures.B: Yes, loss is somehow at thevery center of our being.F: For example, I love the drawingwe have on the front of theAsian section, which is sort ofa collage [see facing page]. It’sa drawing, actually, but it lookslike a collage. It’s done withballpoint pen on paper. And ithas an enormous number ofdetails and various languagesin it. And all kinds of icons,everything from a godlike figure,kind of a Buddhist godlikefigure, but one with a sinister faceof a jack-in-the-box image anda lot of American icons — policemen,pigs, all kinds of strangethings, different languages.B: English text, German...F: It’s hard to describe it, butit’s a sort of conglomerate vision,I think, of the Asian reality as thisparticular artist sees it. And it’scalled “Playroom.” In it a child’splayroom becomes a militaristicnightmare filled with soldiersand strange visions. Where istoday’s Asia? What have Asianslost? In the introduction to theAsian section, Edwin Thumbo,who is a poet himself in Singapore,talks about the conflictand contrast in Asian poetry:that it’s filled with that kind ofcultural conflict. And it’s oftentinged, as so much poetry hereis, as we’ve just seen, with a senseof loss. There’s a recent bookcalled The Sorrows of Empire byChalmers Johnson which hasgotten a lot of attention, and Ikept thinking of that title —although he uses it in a somewhatdifferent sense then we’retalking about here — as I rereadour selections. For example,there’s a poem by Cecil Rajendraon page 140 that gets at thisto some degree. Its called “LexTerroris.” And it reminds us —and we surely need remindingat this particular time in ourhistory —that one person’s terroristis another person’s martyr,that all these people whoare blowing themselves up, forexample, are considered martyrsin their culture.B: While we see them as terrorists.Rajendra’s poem amplifiesthat clash of perceptions.F: You know, one of the thingswe haven’t really talked about,GO OUTSIDE AND PLAYPADDLE DEMO/CLEANUP, JULY 24, 9 AM - 2 PMTest out canoes and kayaks from Wilderness Systems, Perception,Old Town, Mad River, Dagger, and Ocean Kayak, plus get a 15% offcoupon for the boat of your choice.

ut we might, is that when you’redealing with editors all aroundthe world, you’re really interactingwith a lot of differentpersonality types, cultural types,different — you know, just differentpeople. And of course,we’re doing all of this vis-à-visthe Internet and vis-à-vis e-mail. And there’s been a lotwritten about how e-mail doesn’tquite convey what you meanall the time. And people can getinsulted and hurt, and we’verun into some of this.B: You must be joking! I remembergetting an e-mail from MauriceHarmon, our Ireland editor.It said something to theeffect that “The maverick hascome to the corral. I may havean extra beast if the replacementmoos.” He sent a copy toboth of us, and shortly after Ireceived that e-mail, I receivedone from you that asked, “Bruce,do you have any idea what thismeans?” I think he was sayingthat he had corralled all of thepoets for his section of the magazineand might have another.When we work with only oneother editor, it’s a much simplerproject than it becomes withseven-some-odd. We had hopedto have the entire magazinepretty much in hand from theeditors by the end of January.And I was still...F: We’re talking January of 2003.B: And I didn’t really receiveeverything I needed in order toknow exactly what we had towork with until probably Augustor September of that year. Itwas an interesting and oftenfrustrating process just to discoverwhat it was that we hadtaken on here. It seemed tomorph into a larger and largerproject, but even though thechallenges increased with astartling regularity, so too didthe adrenaline. Oddly I think Ilearned more about the personalitiesof our editors than Ihad ever expected to learn viae-mail.F: Yes. And also, you get in touchwith the human reality of thesepeople. For example, HelenGoethal’s [the Caribbean editor]daughter died in the course ofher doing this. And Helen persistedin working and goingthrough those really difficulttimes. Sometimeswork can get youthrough a tragedylike that.B: Somehow, amazingly,she managednot only to pull ittogether for us, butalso to meet the earliestdeadline and tohave everythingreally that we neededright there. She’swonderful.F: That was an amazingfeat. And also,Michael Donaghy,the original Britisheditor, who wasgoing to be the editor— he had a heartattack and had to drop out. Andwe had to get another editorthere. And so you’re really dealingwith actual lives and the difficultyof dealing with all that.It’s kind of a miracle in someways how it came together.B: Yes, although it’s a miraclethat took a lot of hard work bya lot of dedicated people. I don’tthink it will qualify us forsainthood.F: But you know, it also reallyis an idea whose time hasarrived, this idea of bringingtogether English-languagepoetry and seeing it as an entityof its own — looking at it thatway. It’s just taken some timeto see that. All of these poemsgive us together some real senseof the culture they come out of,and they also share the bond ofa common language. One ofthe things I really like is thatthe issue is very accessible. Thereare very few poems here thatwill cause people to throw theirhands up in despair and say“What’s that about?” Very few.I feel almost a missionary zealabout that kind of thing. A fewyears ago, Steve Kowit wrotean essay we published that I stilladmire greatly. It’s called “TheMystique of the Difficult Poem,”and it captures something ofthe pseudo-difficulty of a lot ofcontemporary poetry. I havevery little patience with poetrythat is intentionally obscure anddifficult and contorted or requiresa special sort of training tounderstand what is going on inthe poem. I think poetry has tohave an emotional impact, andit has to be related to life experiencein some way, and virtuallyall the poems in this bookdo.B: I agree.F: Well, now that we’ve got thisbehind us, I guess we shouldconclude this by mentioningthat our next issue is going tohave a special feature tribute tothe great American poet WilliamMatthews, who died a numberof years ago. And it’s a reallyexciting issue.B: I do, too. I think it’s as strongas anything we’ve ever done.And it’s entirely unique, it seemsto me. I’ve just been rereadingthe final manuscript, and it lookswonderful. We’ve also decidedwhat we want to do with PoetryInternational 10 in terms of ourspecial feature. We’re still exploringsome of the subtleties, butwe came up with the desire tofeature Arabic poetry.F: Yes, Arabic poetry. I just havebeen trying — I think that issomething we have to makehappen because it’s — with thetensions between this countryand the Arabic world, it’s noteasy. And also Arabic poetry isnot as widely translated as Europeanpoetry, for example. Andso, it’s going to be a job. But Ithink it’s going to be exciting toput together a collection of Arabicpoetry translated into Englishto get some sense of what’s goingon — again coming back to thatidea of the inside of one personspeaking to the inside ofanother. We sure need to knowwhat’s going on inside peoplein the Arabic world today, andI think one of our great tragediesis that we have been unaware ofthat, really. So this I think willbe an important issue, too. Doyou have anything else you wantto say?B: I’d like to thank our fabulousstaff of graduate writing studentsat SDSU; our wonderfuldesigner, Lori Palmer; and ourterrific new book review editor,Sarah Maclay. Perhaps also tosuggest that people check outmore of the poems on our websiteat http://poetryinternational.sdsu.edu.

S AND IEGOR EADER.COMWhen Even theBest Gets BetterIn art and in life unexpected things happen.Murray Perahia, who gave a stunningrecital at the California Center forthe Arts in Escondido, began his careerin the late 1960s as one of the world’spreeminent pianists. From the very beginning,there was no doubt about hisREVIEWJONATHAN SAVILLEstature. Piano aficionados spokeabout him as another Artur Rubinstein.There was in hisplaying the same profound understandingof the Classical-Romanticrepertoire, the same brilliance of technique,the same confident authority, the same highdegree of passion, freedom, and grandeur thathave characterized the royalty of the pianoworld. Perahia’s performances in the ’70s(many of them preserved on recording) alreadydefined him as a consummate master,and in the subsequent decades he continued toreinforce this reputation.I last reviewed a solo concert of his in 1987,when he appeared at Sherwood Auditoriumunder the auspices of the La Jolla Music Society.I had nothing but superlatives to describehis performances of a Beethoven sonata (theOpus 31, No. 3), the four Chopin Ballades,and works by Mozart and Schubert. I rememberthe concert vividly. Above all, I rememberbeing carried away by Perahia’s impetuosity,his intense involvement with the inner dynamicsof each piece, for which he was willingto risk a precipitous self-abandonment. Itseemed to me that I was hearing this musicianat the very top of his form, beyond which therewas no possibility (and no need) of his goingfurther.But in art and in life unexpectedthings happen. In the’90s, as the result of a minor accident(a paper cut on his hand,which became infected), Perahia was forced toundergo surgery, and his career was interruptedfor a number of years. Among musiclovers, the sense of loss was acute, and one canonly imagine what the pianist himself was goingthrough. What a piece of good news it waswhen Perahia recovered and returned to theconcert hall and to recordings. But how astonishingit was to discover that he was notonly as good as he had always been, but that —in mid-career — he had made a leap upwardinto a quality of musicianship that actuallytranscended what he had done before. Itseemed unbelievable, because when you are atthe top of the mountain, how can you climbhigher? But the evidence was indisputable, inthe reactions of audiences and critics, and inthe sure sense all ardent music-lovers have ofwhen they are in the presence of somethingextraordinary.CLASSICAL MUSICPerahia visited <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong>again three years ago, when heconducted and played withthe Academy of St. Martin inthe Fields in the La JollaMusic Society’s “Celebrity”series at Copley SymphonyHall. In his playing ofconcertos by Mozart andBach (he had become fascinatedwith Bach duringhis period of enforced withdrawal),one could perceivethe “new” Perahia, but itwas not until his recent solorecital in Escondido that wehad a chance to encounterhis heightened artistry by itself,in the exclusive andintimate relationship of thepianist with his instrument,with no orchestra and no conductingto distract one’sattention. Moreover, his programmade it easy to hear the differencesbetween the earlier Perahia and the Perahiaof today. One could compare hisperformance of Beethoven’sOpus 31, No. 1 today with hisOpus 31, No. 3 seventeen years agoat Sherwood. The Schubert Impromptuin E-flat, Opus 90, No. 2figured on both programs (in Escondidoit was offered as anencore). And, without having torely on my memory of performancesfrom a decade and a halfago, I could immediately comparethe Schumann Fantasiestücke,Opus 12 I heard in Escondido withMurray PerahiaMurray Perahia, pianoCalifornia Center for the Arts, EscondidoBeethoven, Sonata No. 16 in G, Opus 31, No. 1; Schumann,Fantasiestücke, Opus 12; Brahms, Variations and Fugue on a Themeof Handel, Opus 24ILLUSTRATION BY CHARLES POWELLBACHcollegium san diegoRuben Valenzuela • Music DirectorEVENSONG& BENEFITRECEPTION(BENEFIT WILL IMMEDIATELY FOLLOW EVENSONG AT 5:45 PM)EVENSONG:Magnificat • Dietrich Buxtehude • MotetO Jesu Christ, meins Lebens Licht BWV 118 • J.S.

Perahia’s recording of thesame work, made as long agoas 1973.That recording, whichalso includes a dazzlingperformance of the Davidsbündlertänze(far moregripping and idiomatic thanRichard Goode’s recent performance,which I wroteabout a couple of weeks ago),remains one of the most excitingSchumann piano CDson the market, and againstcompetition from virtuallyevery other great pianist inthe world. But in Escondido,Perahia was palpably moredaring: more extreme in therushing upsurges of Aufschwung,more aggressive inthe whimsies of Grillen, moreagitated in the anxious nocturnalmurmurings of In derNacht, more uninhibited inthe fanciful playfulness of Fabel,more dizzyingly virtuosic(and more aware of thenightmarish turmoil) inTraumes Wirren, more imaginative,more assertive,nobler, broader, faster, moreinspired with the magicalpsychological complexitythat informs Schumann’s art.It was not that Perahia’s stylehad changed; it was the livingenergy behind the stylethat had at once matured andbecome more youthful, withthe wisdom and freshness ofthe artist’s own humanexperience.Something similar couldbe said for the SchubertImpromptu (of which Perahiahas a sensationalrecording from 1982) andof the pianist’s way withearly Beethoven, in whichhis enhanced freedom of interpretationnow brings outas few other pianists havedone the stupendous spiritualinventiveness in thatmusic. New to my knowledgeof Perahia was his performanceof Brahms’s HandelVariations. I don’t know howhe played this demandingcomposition in the past (if heplayed it at all), but his mannerof playing it nowadays ismagnificent, full of fire anddelicacy, and achieving notonly a full realization of eachof the sections but also acompelling vision of thework’s overall structure anddynamic movement. And thesounds Perahia drew fromhis Steinway! It could havebeen the Berlin Philharmonicthere, in Charles Moore’swonderful concert hall,where every nuance of thissuperb artist’s playing wasdiscernible in all its subtletyand richness.Speaking of the hall, theCenter has announced nextyear’s classical music season,which includes the GewandhausOrchestra of Leipzig,with Garrick Ohlsson playingboth the Brahms piano concertos;the Moscow Virtuosi,under Vladimir Spivakov;and an all-Dvořák concert bythe Prague Symphony.

S AND IEGOR EADER.COMRoad ExposuresThe camera, which High Plains tribes called the“shadow catcher,” has always been ananthropological instrument.Almost as soon as photography was inventedin 1837, it went on the move.Practitioners like Henry Fox Talbot, whopatented the process, didn’t wander far fromhome. They established studios and experimentedwith what would becomethe most all-enveloping mediumof the modern period. But othershit the road almost immediatelyand made photography a transientform of representation that providedvicarious transport for those who would nevervisit faraway places. Many of the earliest imageswere of ancient ruins and religious monumentsin exotic locales, images that didn’t so muchtransform reality as they transmitted it, creatingalong the way a pictorial fossil record.A broad range of “finds” is covered in the Museumof Photographic Arts’ exhibitionWanderers, Travelers, and Adventurers, an anthologydrawn from the museum’s permanentcollection installed with the kind of wit that, ina selection of landscapes, juxtaposes a NASApanoramic view of the moon’s surface to a forestscene near Tukvar, India, recorded in 1869by the British photographer Samuel Bourne. (Thephotographic business he opened in Calcutta in1863 is still in operation.) Bourne, like many earlyfootloose image-makers, was captivated by non-European architectural forms — minarets, flutedREVIEWW.S. DI PIEROturrets, ziggurats, and wild sculptural embellishmentsfeaturing strange gods and beastssometimes engaged in acrobatic sexual activities.Photographers in those days were a motleybunch of adventurers, inventors, men of leisure,servants of empire, surgeons,chemists, and the occasionalscofflaw. And all of them possesseda remarkably natural eyefor composition, as if the gift ofseeing the world photographically was coded intothe human genome. The Englishman Francis F.Frith, a retired grocer, traveled to the fartherreaches of the Empire, bringing with him innatebusiness savvy and a feeling for visual epic. He assembledhis pictures of ancient palaces andmonuments in Egypt, Greece, and other remotelocales in albums that were much in demand bythe thriving merchant and commercial classesthe Empire generated.Mid-19th-century America, especially thenewly opened far west — Manifest Destiny wasour primitive version of empire without an emperor— was a choice environment forvagabonding photographers. Before the new expansescould be profitably cut and blasted andmined, they had to be measured.

egan doing survey work, andCarleton Watkins, the greatestearly American landscape photographer,was taking picturesof Mount Lassen and MountShasta for the California GeologicalSurvey.Wanderers, Travelers, andAdventurers includes one ofJackson’s most spectacular images:a double locomotive pullsfreight and passenger carriagesacross a high trestle, tons ofiron perched on spindly stilts,an image certainly of America’snew industrialized mighttreading heavily across unfamiliarground, but the mutedlighting makes that powerfulUnion Pacific creation looklike a ghost train. Watkins’sphotograph of Yosemite Falls,a funnel of sugar-white waterfoaming down between treesthat fork away on either sidelike a parting curtain, testifiesto a now-nonexistent virginwilderness. It’s an image of theAmerican Sublime, westernversion, which hasn’t lost its allurefor photographers stilldrawn to its peculiar extremitiesof light and dark. The buttesheathed in coppery reds inTerry Falke’s recent StandingRock, Arizona looks as if a fireburns inside.The camera, which HighPlains tribes called the “shadowcatcher,” has always been ananthropological instrument.Edward Curtis saw early onthat Native peoples would benearly eradicated and resolvedto make a visual record of theircultures. His picture of a Hupatribesman spearfishing from arock in a stream is, like muchof Curtis’s work, elegiac withoutsentimentalizing itssubject. That was then. In ourown time, the 50-year-oldBrazilian Valdir Cruz has spentyears photographing indigenouscultures in the Brazilianrain forest. His picture ofYanomami children lolling onlow-slung hammocks, in a dirtfloor interior strewn with bananapeels and gourds, makesno judgment on its subject. ItHupa tribesman spear-fishing, Edward Curtissimply reports.A 19th-century westernphotographer needed mules todraw his van and sometimes2000 pounds of equipment —view camera, tripod, chemicals,glass plates, cases, plusgrub and water for man andbeasts. All a contemporaryphotographer needs is a car.Some turn a car’s point of viewinto subject matter. PhilippSholz Rittermann (who lives in<strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong>) has made a 360-degreecar-interior panoramathat’s practically a metaphorfor photography’s fanatical visualappetites. The disorientingpicture rounds up the landscapepassing across the car’swindows, weather patterns(lightning filaments touchdown in and between shafts ofdark rain), road traffic fore and(thanks to rearview mirrors)aft, and the photographer himself,who drives both car andimage and who seems to needsleep and a shave. RogerMinick’s 1977 Untitled (viewthrough a windshield) cracksopen a vision we all recognize,of the great Americannowhere-that-is-everywhere.On a stretch of interstate,through erosive rain and brassyair, an overpass appears dimlyahead. A Holiday Inn sign besidethe road looks left overfrom a failed civilization. It’san essential image of a certainkind of photographic imperative:keep moving, stay awake,see everything.The two shows of work byRobert Weingarten concurrentlyon view at MOPAextend the themes of Wanderers,Travelers, and Adventurers.In one series, Another America,the image-maker is on themove, as witness and culturalanthropologist, among Amishcommunities in Pennsylvania,Indiana, Ohio, and Iowa. Theother exhibition stops allmovement except the kind thatinheres in weather. For an entireyear, every day at 6:30 a.m.,Weingarten took a color photographfrom his bedroomwindow overlooking <strong>San</strong>taMonica Bay. The tripod nevermoved. The resulting picturescompose an essay on the passivepotencies of photography,which need only be timely (thepictures seem to say) for theworld will do the rest. Thepalette whipped up by waterand air changes daily and extremely,from lava reds andstorm-cloud grays to fineshades of heliotrope (whichhappens to be blooming in theMingei garden in Balboa Park).A few pictures reveal a strip ofland and buildings. One imageis pure colorist abstraction, asubtly differentiated storm ofsand-blown oranges andyellows.The Amish pictures studiouslyobserve a veryparticular way of life. The uniformityof Amish culture,down to the straw hats and suspendersworn by males veryyoung and very old, and to thescooters and buggies they travelon, could have been visually tedious,but Weingarten’simages suggest that in suchuniformity lies a tribal strengthand coherence. This isn’t investigativejournalism. Amishcommunities have their shareof problems with sullenteenagers in trouble withdrugs, violence, and sex, butWeingarten’s essay is toned byadmiration and the desire toget something clearly onrecord. In these pictures of hatshanging from wall pegs, workhorses pulling coulters,bearded elders conferring, awoman fishing from a rowboator walking a country lane, andchildren rather seriously atplay, and of housewares, milkLancaster County, Pennsylvania, 2001, Robert Weingartencans, and corn cribs, Weingartenshows us a plenitude inAmish austerity. Most picturesare in black and white — theintense black of mud and hats,the hard-packed whites ofsnow and clapboard. Oneturns blocky black coverallsand white linens hanging on aline into a nearly abstract composition.In another laundrypicture, one of the few colorprints, sun-shot shirts andtablecloths glow with shimmeringtransparent yellowsand blues, reminding us thatthough the Amish dress inmostly black and white andwork-shirt blue, they live in aworld of color and that theirquilt work, a critical source oftourism income, releases andexpresses the pleasure of color,and the colors of pleasure. ■Events that are underlined occurafter July 22.HOW TO SEND US YOURLISTING: Contributions must bereceived by 5 p.m. Friday the weekprior to publication forconsideration.

S AND IEGOR EADER.COMFeel-Good VirusThey could heed Plato’s dictum, that “great naturesproduce great vices as well as virtues.”Shakespeare’s in all of his characters, of course,of course. But it’s tempting to speculate.When he wrote Antony and Cleopatra, between1606 and early 1607, Shakespeare was 42.The play begins in 40 B.C. Mark Antony is 42, andgray hairs “do something mingle”with his “younger brown,” as mostlikely did the Bard’s. The play takesplace over a ten-year period, concludingwith the founding of theRoman Empire and the death of Antony. Thuswhen we first see him, Mark Antony has ten yearsto live. As an aside: so did Shakespeare, who diedin 1616.It’s fun to watch how the 42-year-old playwrightcreates a male romantic lead his ownage — someone who’s been there, done that, evenhas the T-shirt. Does he sculpt a legend? An olderRomeo? Well, yes; at least that’s what everyonesays. But when we watch Antony in action it’s asif the Emperor shopped without a credit card.Antony’s a near buffoon, torn between loyalty toRome and his love for “wrangling” Cleopatra,who taunts and toys with his every feeling. Heloses a wife (Fulvia, who, says Plutarch, “commandedhim that commanded legions”), marriesOctavius’s sister (and has two daughters), dumpsher, loses battles and face, gets betrayed byCleopatra, botches a suicide, and ends upimmortalized.Although the heap of ironies suggest he did,if Shakespeare didn’t throw himself into Antony,REVIEWJEFF SMITHhe loaded the play with one of his pet obsessions:there’s a gap, often vast, between what we see andhear. We hear of Antony the colossus, whose “legsbestrid the ocean,” yet we witness a “dis-candy’d”self that, when it isn’t bumbling around, almostmelts away.Same with Cleopatra. Takeaway Act Five, in which she redeemsherself and the play, Cleo’sa chaos of outsized emotions —and often a comic figure. Antony says she’s “cunningpast man’s thought.” Oh no, says Enobarbus,embroidering the myth, “her passions are…butthe finest part of pure love. This cannot be cunningin her.” The next time we see Cleopatra, she’s somanipulative her attendant Charmian tells her tolighten up with Antony: “In each thing give himway; cross him in nothing.”Although people chronicle their union withburnished prose, until the very end these immortallovers are as insecure as grade-schoolsweethearts; emotionally they are the youngestpeople not just on the stage, but in the theater.Antony is torn between Rome and Egypt, betweenduty and love, Cleopatra between happinessand preservation in a male-dominated world. Bytelling one thing and showing another, Shakespeareputs similar conflicts in his audience.The Old Globe opened its summer Shakespearefestival with Renaissance musicians, under a rosepinksunset, and an Antony and Cleopatra, directedby always-creative Darko Trasnjak, that got muchTHEATERAntony and Cleopatra, by William ShakespeareLowell Davies Festival Theatre, Simon Edison Centre for the Performing Arts, Balboa ParkDirected by Darko Tresnjak; cast: Dan Snook, James Joseph O’Neill, Jonathan McMurtry, Sara Surrey,Brian Sgambati, Deborah Taylor, Neil Shah, Bree Elrod, Michael Newman, Bruce Turk, Greg Thornton, GrahamHamilton, Charles Janasz, Gregor Paslawsky, Daniel Jay Shore, Liam Craig; scenic design, Ralph Funicello;costumes, Linda Cho; lighting, York Kennedy; sound, Christopher Walker; fight director, Steve Rankin;choreographer, Bonnie JohnstonPlaying through September 26; Antony and Cleopatra runs in repertory with The Two Noble Kinsmenand As You Like It.

S AND IEGOR EADER.COMTHEATERcenterstage turntable, however,offers striking visuals: when therulers of the world spin slowly,as if on the globe itself; and duringa battle when, under YorkKennedy’s blistering red lighting,combatants freeze in arevolving tableau.The Romans, commentatorssay, are stoical and disciplined;the Egyptians free-spirited,spontaneous. To illustrate thedifferences — which resembleright- and left-brain functionsmore than the male/female labelscommentators givethem — Linda Cho has colorcodedher costumes. Romanswear shades of red, from fadedcrimson for menials to brightred for leaders. Egyptians are indegrees of cream colors, withCleopatra in almost blindingwhites, and every outfit a designer’ssignature piece. Herfinal costume — crowned by adazzling gold headdress thatmust have been absconded fromKing Tut’s treasury — topsthem all.Cleopatra’s ultimate lookmerits the poetic flights of Enobarbuswhen he describes theday she rode up the river of Cydnuson a barge “so perfumedthat the winds were love-sick.”Greg Thornton, capable allevening long as Enobarbus,gathers Romans around him.When the last straggler joins in,the lights dim and Thorntonglides in to one of Shakespeare’sgreat set pieces. The languagesings of purple sails and silveroars, and one almost forgetsthat, as elsewhere, what we hearprobably bears no resemblanceto what took place. We witness,instead, a myth in the making.History is messy, as Shakespearehas shown us often.Nagging, contrary details oftenmar clear lines and unified purposes.One of the things heshows us in Antony and Cleopatra:Forget Aristotle’s precepts,tragedies can be messy too.James Joseph O’Neil makesOctavius cold as a statue — anappropriate choice, given thatthe leader of the Pax Romanawas as much calculating machineas human. Bruce Turkheads the support cast as anethereal soothsayer who seemsto walk on air.Maybe it’s because they’recast in two repertory shows.Maybe not. But on openingnight Dan Snook’s earnest, beleagueredAntony and SaraSurrey’s attitude-thick Cleopatrahad neither the size nor therange for their roles. They couldheed Plato’s dictum, that “greatnatures produce great vices aswell as virtues.” Snook’s mosteloquent move was directorial:about to marry Octavius’s sister,he’s caught dancing with aserving maid.Bardolators would love totime machine back to the EnglishRenaissance to see theplaywright in action. Muchmore useful might be to watchhow young William Ostlerplayed Shakespeare’s most demandingfemale roles:Desdemona, Lady Macbeth,and Cleopatra — especially thelatter’s “infinite variety.” Surreywore but had yet to inhabitCleopatra’s “quickly ill and well”oscillations. She was tentativewhen the role calls for theworld’s most liberated diva.Darko Tresnjak awed <strong>San</strong><strong>Diego</strong> with his 2002 Pericles.Even though the cast wasn’t alwaysup to his speed, Tresnjak’sdirection of Antony and Cleopatrashows a thorough awarenessof the play’s needs and demands.With only oneexception, his epic stage picturesand subtle nuances serve thisdifficult play.The exception is his JesusChrist Superstar tag to the original,tragic ending. In anapotheosis, the white-clad immortalspromise to frolicforever. The new, upbeat endingwipes out the tragedy. Thisfeel-good virus has affected epicmovies of late: Pearl Harbor andThe Alamo end on high notes(Jimmy Doolittle bombs Tokyo,Sam Houston wallops <strong>San</strong>taAnna); so does Troy, at the endof which Helen escapes — Imean, like, HUH??? — andAgamemnon and Menelaus aredead, which would come as amajor surprise to the Greektragedians who wrote of theirpost-Troy shenanigans. Moviescling to upbeat vibes. But theatershouldn’t. So let’s imploreMelpomene, the muse oftragedy, to erect Norton Antivirusand firewalls around <strong>San</strong><strong>Diego</strong> theater to combat thismorbid fear of arousing an audience’sdeepest emotions. ■THEATERLISTINGSTheater listings and commentary areby Jeff Smith.

Many theaters offerdiscounts to students, senior citizens,and the military. Ask at the boxoffice.Actors Alliance Festival2004I want to plug this enterprise sightunseen. The annual Actors Festivaloffers local actors, directors, andplaywrights the chance to showcasethemselves in new or rarely producedwork. The actors perform ona bare stage, or with few props,against a black background. Costumesrange from off-the-rack tooff-one’s-clothes hanger (or floor).The emphasis isn’t on visuals or externals;it’s on acting. Each eveninghas three or four one-acts.

Due to aMoscow housing shortage, andagainst her wishes, Ludmilla’s husbandKolya invites his friend,Volodya, to share their dinkyapartment. Then Ludmilla has anaffair with Volodya, and the apartmentshrinks again. And then, asboth men become set in their ways(disputing who gets the rockingchair), it dawns on Ludmilla thatshe exchanged an insensitivelunkhead for a sensitive one.Cygnet Theatre’s set looks like anindoor version of Dorothy’sKansas. Everything’s either black,white, or a shade of gray, evenbricks on the wall. The costumeshave a similar palette, as do the actors’pancake-powdered faces. Usingmime and high-caliber voices,Julie Jacobs, Eric Anderson, andMichael Elliott perform a “silentmusical,” part silent film, partopera. They also provide the“color.” In a way the show teachesyou how to watch it. After a whileyou begin to realize that gesturesand reactions, and musical flurries,often come in threes, and the nexttime the event occurs, the patternrepeats but with different characters.You also realize that lightingdesigner Karin Filijan adds a wonderfulrinse of spots, strobe-flickers,and dissolves just like a silentfilm.Critic’s pick.CYGNET THEATRE COMPANY, 6663 ELCAJON BOULEVARD, COLLEGE AREA,THROUGH JULY 18; THURSDAYTHROUGH SATURDAY AT 8:00 P.M.

Born between 1946 and1964, they’re the largest generationin history, they’re writing the bookon “self-obsession,” and one turns50 every seven seconds. KerryMeads and Vanda Eggington’ssalute — in a new, “remixed” version— takes musical walks downall manner of memory lanes: historical,sociological, even televisional(at one point the cast blazesthrough TV theme songs, andmini-bursts of recognition ignite inthe audience). The show alternatesbetween nostalgia and hard looksat then (JFK, Vietnam) and now.Backed by a hot band, the castsings snatches of songs. It’s as ifyour time machine is channel-surfing.Just as you remember one, thecast does another. The result:waves, at times floods, of remembrances.Directed by Meads, thebriskly-paced production boastsmicro-accurate period costumes byJeanne Reith, a set composed ofcountless logos (from goldenarches to Alfred E. “What, MeWorry?” Newman of Mad magazine),and strong singing voices.For actual Baby Boomers, the showalso includes advice for overcomingthe “Big Chill Syndrome.” It’slively, funny, and could run forever.Worth a try.LYCEUM THEATRE, 79 HORTON PLAZA,DOWNTOWN, THROUGH AUGUST 22;WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY AT7:30 P.M.

Continental DivideMaybe if the actors didn’t alwaysspeak in headlines, going nose-to-noseand giving every sentence an exclamationpoint; and maybe if director TonyTaccone moved the actors more likepeople than chess pieces, then maybeDavid Edgar’s two-play cycle wouldfeel more human and gripping towatch. But then Mothers Against andDaughters of the Revolution beg for aneditor (it’s hard to recall more explanatoryscripts). What frustratesmost: Edgar has things to say. Thesecome in cross-referencing leitmotifs,and in various utopian dreams thatexclude each other. And in the way thepolitical process only permits stereotypes.To represent one’s complexitiesin a gubernatorial race means to loseconstituents. Edgar’s insights have acumulative, tapestry-like effect. But toreach that revelation requires a twoplay,six-hour sit that’s Darwinian inits survival demands on an audience.LA JOLLA PLAYHOUSE, MANDELL WEISSTHEATRE, 2910 LA JOLLA VILLAGEDRIVE, THROUGH AUGUST 1; TUESDAYTHROUGH SATURDAY AT 8:00 P.M.

Patricia “Patti” Peccarino(Emily Anne Smith), heir to the Peccarinocheese fortune (“The CheeseStands Alone”), is about to marryWilhelm “Willie” Schmeterlinck(Ben Gilbert), last of the Schmeterlincks(who, some allege, inventedCheez Whiz) and a groom given toquoting Shakespeare (“to wed, or notto wed”). There’s a death. Then another.Was the murderer “the BavarianBattleaxe,” Gretchen Schmeterlinck(Diane Thrasher)? Or Patti’smother, Theresa Rodham Peccarino(Bonnie Stone). Both exude insidiousintent. Or was it lactose-intolerantPatti, who lost 17 minutes of her lifeat age nine? Or one of several othercandidates, each eager to make a hostiletakeover — of anything — andeach living proof that “cousinsshouldn’t marry.” Authors JamesPascarella and the late Will Robersonset the piece in the 1950s (yet aresomehow able to make numeroustopical references to today).

Like a cheerleaderoveramped on uppers, she hops,dances, fidgets, whirls, and talks asfast as she moves. Jennifer’s theprotagonist of Rolin Jones’s smart,moving, hilarious story of an agoraphobicgenius who wants to findher birth mother in China but can’tleave her house. So she invents arobot she calls Jenny Chow andgoes by proxy. Sueko has enoughenergy to light Balboa Park. But sodoes the entire Old Globe production.Under Kirsten Brandt’s sharpdirection, the Cassius Carter theaterbecomes a circus. But Brandtdoes more. Jenny Chow is aboutroots and relativity, real and imaginedfears. It resembles StephenWadsworth’s recent Don Juan inthat both alternate the comic anddeeply serious. Brandt stagesscenes, back to back, that shiftfrom funny to touching on a dime.Sueko’s amazing performanceshouts “must see.” But so do KellyVanKirk’s efforts in minor roles.He’s so versatile when you see hispicture in the program, it’s hard toplace the face on any of his creations.Design work serves thescript well.

The sister is substituting(it’s the regular teacher’spoker night, don’t tell a soul). Sheused to teach but was deemed toostrict for contemporary students.And the class is just that, part of acourse in Catholic doctrine. Butthe sister’s authoritarianism takes itto unforeseen places (you can hearcries of recognition from the audience,especially when sister bringsout a hard ruler and taps herpalm). The results, the two timesI’ve seen the show: (a) an eveningof almost nonstop comedy, and (b)a thought-provoking look at education,religion, and much more.The sister, it turns out, is not kidding.Leigh ScarrittFriday July 16Phil JohnsonSaturday July 17Friday July 23Worth a try.LAGUNA PLAYHOUSE, 606 LAGUNACANYON ROAD, LAGUNA BEACH,THROUGH AUGUST 23; MONDAY AT7:30 P.M. 949-497-2787.A Lesson From AloesWithout ever naming it, Athol Fugardreveals the soul-blasting effectsof Apartheid on individuals.

His drama has twomaids, Solange and Claire, andtheir Madame, whose tea they plotto poison. They playact differentroles and, as themselves, critiqueeach other’s performance.

Improvisationalcomedy, making up funny stuff onthe spot, is difficult enough. Yearsago, however, Keith Johnstonethought it’d be more exciting ifdone competitively. He got the ideafrom pro wrestling (“where TerribleTurks mangled defrockedPriests, while mums and dadsyelled insults and grannies wavedtheir handbags”). National ComedyTheatre, an offshoot of Johnstone’sTheatreSports (artistic directorGary Kramer says the twocompare like “rugby and Americanfootball”), resembles an athleticevent more than an improv. Teamswear uniforms and compete on ActroTurf.The night I caught theshow, three <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> comediansplayed a “challenge match” againstplayers from the <strong>San</strong> Jose franchise.Using suggestions from the audience,they played “Emotional Sympathy,”“Shakespeare,” “BlindLine,” and “Freeze Tag,” withjudges awarding points to the bestscenes.

Improv,making up a funny scene as you goalong, is tough enough. Add competitivescene making, with the audienceawarding points to the winningteam. Purists might balk at the odi-
ousness of comparisons used in thisformat, but <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> Theatresports’“game show” is a hoot. The90-minute evening offers differentbits. The show I caught had “TeamSports” — two pairs of players competed,taking suggestions from theaudience; and “Gorilla Theatre” —five directors invented scenes, usingthe other four as actors. The winnergot a banana, the loser a “forfeit”(other formats include “Micetro”and “Improv Survivors”). Some attemptswent nowhere (I repeat: improvis tough; I did it in my, as hindsightreveals, callow youth). Othersmade amazing twists and turns. Thegroup makes the hits much morefrequent than the misses. Theirguru, Keith Johnstone, has writtenone of the few brilliant books (Improv)I’ve ever read about makingtheater.

Heand his companions, here to celebrateHugh’s anniversary, got stuckin the ’70s. The trio used to beMaxwell, Butternutt, and Bean, acomedy group that never went far.They’re “losers,” they admit, but not“ordinary” ones. And, hey, their reunioncould help them face searingissues from their mediocre pasts. Aformulaic story line? Yep. Straightfrom Forever Plaid. There’s also theForever Plaid problem: the three comediansare far too talented to playinept characters. One’s a whiz at thepiano. Another’s a first-rate mime,and the third’s a crackerjack magician.The trio is so talented, whenthe plot has them complain of difficultiesto overcome, you wish they’dquit trumping up the pseudo-dramaand get on with this highly entertaining,if lightweight show.

He rerecorded overour two-inch master. Ourmasters no longer exist,” saidMike Palm, guitarist/vocalistof the band Agent Orange,which has been based inNorth County for sevenyears.Kim Gardener, guitaristof Channel 3 (one of the earlyPosh Boy bands), said he hadno comment on thererecording of masters.Fields, now in South Africa,responded via e-mail. “It istrue that the original PoshBoy Agent Orange multitracktapes are no longeravailable.… I am not sure ifwe rerecorded onto thosetapes or not.”Agent Orange was pickedup by Enigma/Capitol in1987. “In those days theywere not focused on punkthe inside trackrock. They ignored us.”Enigma released three CDsfor them. Since 1989 AgentOrange has had only twoindie releases, although theband has toured Japan,Brazil, Australia, and Europe.Palm (who would notdisclose his age, but he looksearly 40s), his wife, and threekids live in Carlsbad. AgentOrange has only Palm as anoriginal member and nowincludes bassist Bruce Taylor,formerly of JFA, andNashville-based drummerSteve Latanation.Palm said he had a smallproblem with Rykodisc, theAGENT ORANGE’S PALMRENAMES REISSUEcompany that bought therights to reissue the threeEnigma records. That twodiscset was released last year.“They allowed our exbassplayer to name thepackage. He wanted to call itHarmonic Convergence. Theycalled me and I said, ‘That’snot gonna happen. If itcomes out that way, there’sgonna be big legal trouble.’They said, ‘But we alreadyannounced it in a pressrelease.’ I told them, ‘It needsto be changed.’ I had twohours to get a new namebefore it went to press. I gotSonic Snake Sessions. A snakesession is an old-school skateterm used to describe a freefor-allpool session.”Palm said there is amisconception that he suedPHOTOGRAPH BY DEREK PLANK.COMthe Offspring for copyrightinfringement over the use ofa signature guitar riff in theirsong “Keep ’em Separated”that is similar to AgentOrange’s “Teen PunkAnthem Bloodstains.”Palm said, “There was nolawsuit.

We proved we used it inother states and othercountries.”Common Sense hasreleased five albums, the lasttwo with Geffen/MCA.“If he says it once or twiceon a TV show, it is not cool,but it would not turn intoanother court battle. But if hecontinues to keep saying it onTV, we would have nochoice. This is our life. Ifsomeone else infringes onthat, of course we’re going toCOMMON SENSE SUES RAPPER WITH NO SENSEprotect that.”Lillian Matulic is thesenior VP of publicity forGeffen/MCA.

It usually endsup being trash on my carfloor. And I see lots of themlittered on the parking lot of’Canes. But one band had abetter idea. They gave out CDsingles to everyone. It wasafter a Peaches concert onMay 17. I could hear two orthree cars blaring the song“Chauffeur” by the Fitness.The song has a lot ofsynthesizers and lyrics like“The sweet smell of yoursuccess / It’s the scandal andperversion that you do withyour excess / Same-sex lovers /Or maybe with your brother /The map of the stars is myguide / I take them to theirhouses / But I never goinside.” The chorus has thelines, “Chauffeur / Do youknow where I can score someblow? / Chauffeur / I can takeyou where you need to go.”The band is from Seattlebut has one <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> native:Tom Bridgman. The malevocalist/guitar player says, “Iwas born at Scripps Hospital,but I moved up to Seattlewhen I was 13. I did see myfirst show at the Ché Café. Itwas Pitchfork.

Both comparisonsmake sense: Black Heart Procession is from<strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> too, and all three bands mine asimilar territory of dark, atmospheric music.However, I think an important point isbeing missed: Black Heart’s work and Portishead’ssecond album are for listening towhen you’re alone and miserable, but Ilya isfor lovers. Poise Is the Greater Architect,Ilya’s 2002 debut album, is a fantastic makeoutrecord. Sure, some people may reach forclassics like Barry White or Marvin Gaye whenthey want to set a mood, but let’s say you’reeast of I-15 on Hwy 76, Pala.760-510-4555 or 619-220-8497.The Flatlanders: Belly Up Tavern,Wednesday, August 4, 8 p.m., 143South Cedros Avenue, Solana Beach.619-220-8497 or 858-481-8140.Smokey Robinson [620]:Humphrey’s Concerts by the Bay,Thursday, August 5, 8 p.m., 2241Shelter Island Drive, Shelter Island.619-220-8497 or 619-523-1010.Crystal Gayle [610]: Sycuan CasinoShowcase Theatre, Thursday, August5, 8 p.m., 5469 Casino Way, Dehesa.619-445-6002, x1139.Heart: Pechanga Theater ShowRoom, Thursday, August 5, 8 p.m.,Pechanga Resort & Casino, 45000a double major in Englishand French and you’re tryingto make some time with ahottie in film studies —you’re going to need somethingless obvious. Ilya couldbe your ticket.The tip-off is BlancaRojas’s bedroom voice,with her Spanish accentsoftening the edges of everyhalf-whispered word untilthe lyrics become justanother part of the band’swash of sound. (When Rojasbecomes clearly audiblesinging a line like “My existenceis surreal,” don’t ILYAthink about it; just hopeyour film-studies hottie doesn’t notice.)Beyond that, there is the slow build of almostevery song toward a climax of beautiful guitarnoise. The most frequent criticism ofIlya — that all its songs sound alike — isactually a strength: there’s nothing to spoilthe mood.

I was there oneafternoon when the two groups took in a bullfight.Mum sat me down on Paul’sknee…and she remembers Paul covering myeyes when they killed the bull.” Good idea:in 1965, Page was two years old.Page has no memory of either McCartneyor the bull, but perhaps a touch of thatold Beatle magic rubbed off.

Page alsofronted the superb and now-defunctRestless Sleepers and currently workson and off with the Hatchet Brothers.And sometimes it’s just him and hisguitar and maybe a ukulele (he lovesthose wry crooners from the ’20s and’30s).Which brings us to his currentphase: a John Lennon-esque malaiseabout living as love-impaired. “I seeshadows and clouds of blue / And allthe flowers that forgot to bloom / Andinside it rains in my room / I camehome without her.” That’s from HappinessIs Being Lonely, a maudlincollection Page recently completed.The cover features him hunched unshavenover the mixing table like a man who hasspent one too many mornings alone at life’sbreakfast counter.

S AND IEGOR EADER.COMRESTAURANTSThe third installment of this summer’s seaside fishsaga brings us to master and commander of seafoodrestaurants nationwide, McCormick and Schmick’s.This 30-year-old, Portland-based chain has branchesin more than 30 cities nationwide, including NewYork and Washington, D.C.Our branch is at the new Omni Hotel, whichopened in tandem with Petco’s inauguration. Despiteits nearness to the bay, there’s no harbor viewbecause the convention center walls off the waterfront.The way to see the water is to dine on the terraceand face west toward the fountain fronting TinFish restaurant (otherwise, you view the train acrossthe street). But, similar to other restaurants in thischain, there are compensations, from decor tocooking.In every city where they’ve opened, McCormick& Schmick’s receives positive reviews because theirfood is good, ingredients are fresh, and executionis expert. A McCormick (Bill) and a Schmick (Doug)do exist, and they run their operation unlike otherchains. Instead of using a commissary dispensingingredients to the branches, management hires experiencedchefs in each city to gather food from regionalsources. The corporate recipes vary geographically:crab cakes feature Dungeness on the West Coastand blue crab on the Atlantic, each with differentseasonings. Individual chefs start with the corporatemenu, but they’re encouraged to develop dishes oftheir own to appeal to local tastes.For the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> branch, the company hiredBrian Johnston, whose cooking turned the drabStar of the Sea into a destination. Since this is a hotelrestaurant (it has to provide three meals plus roomservice), Johnston has his hands full. Much evidenceof his culinary personality has yet to surface,but among the dishes I tried, the standout is Johnston’sinvention. His New Zealand John Dory hasthe texture of beefsteak under a crust of seared,grated potatoes that seal the moisture into the fillet.This is a fishy-tasting species, and the crust bringsout its virtues. It’s plated over a Northwestern berrysauce. Do spuds go with berries? Yes, they do. Theplate includes white and wild rice pilaf with onionand golden raisins, alongside whole carrots andasparagus spears. If you tend toward red wine, thisfish can handle it.In contrast are several deep-fried appetizersout of the McC&S playbook that became trendy inthe ’80s: crab cakes, calamari, and coconut shrimp.Omni PresentGiven McCormick & Schmick’s age and popularity,the chain may have turned these dishes intofood fads or helped spread the word.The Dungeness crab and bay shrimp cakeshave panko breadcrumb filler but are moister thanaverage. I tasted these at the Seattlebranch 15 years ago and again in<strong>San</strong> Francisco 12 years ago. Nowthey’ve arrived in <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong>unchanged, with red pepper andcayenne and the pleasant red pepper aioli. The friedcalamari and coconut shrimp are tender and greaselessin their light flour batters. The calamari comeswith three dips: a cocktail sauce, an off-balancesherry mayonnaise (poor partners), and a marmalademade with sugar syrup, orange zest, scallions,and Italian parsley. The shrimp comes with the marmaladealone. I prefer the coconut shrimp at RedSails Inn (reviewed two weeks ago) because it hasmore personality.Seafood deliveries come in six days a weekfrom several suppliers. The chain is famed for itsraw oysters, offering six types daily. If the menuincludes the sweet Kumamotos, don’t pass them by.REVIEWNAOMI WISEOysters come with cocktail sauce and a red winevinegar mignonette. A “Big Chill” cold seafoodsampler includes the day’s oysters, piled into tripletiers modeled on Parisian brasserie assiettes. Forfour or more, the assortment includes water-boiledcrab, prawns, and crawfish, plusalderwood-smoked salmon, anothersmoked fish of a species our servercouldn’t identify, and squares ofseared ahi crusted with black pepperand cayenne. The sauces include ponzu,horseradish, mignonette, and cocktail. For its size,the array lacks the variety of the best cold seafoodsamplers I’ve tasted. McC&S’s version seems awkwardand lacking in sensuality.The highlight of the salad choices is a mandalaof roasted red and golden beet slices plated over amulticolored swirl of reduced pomegranate juice.The heart of this lotus is a disk of Laura Chenel goatcheese coated with herbs and pink and black peppercorns,topped with microgreens.I enjoyed an appetizer of Manila clamssteamed in a garlicky wine broth with parsley andchives. These bivalves are easy to overcook, butPHOTOGRAPH BY JOE KLEINMcCormick & Schmick’s★★★½ (Very good to excellent)Omni Hotel, 675 L Street (at Sixth Avenue),Downtown; 619-645-6545.HOURS: Daily 7:00 a.m.–11:00 p.m.PRICES: Appetizers, $3.50–$13 (seafoodsampler $39.40 to serve 4); salads and sandwiches,$7–$15; entrées, $11–$27; desserts,$5.CUISINE & BEVERAGES: Daily-changingmenu of about 30 varieties of fresh seafoodin over 50 preparations, plus a handful ofpoultry and meat dishes.

sausage. Don’t start thinking“spicy Cajun” — the andouilleis wimpy.All the seafood species ofthe day are listed at the top of theprinted menu, printed twice dailyto reflect the current catch. Onesummery entrée features drypacksea scallops from NewBedford, Massachusetts. Thesearen’t precious diver scallops, butthey’re firm and fresh-tasting,much like the mollusks you’d eaton a summer vacation at the NewEngland coast. They’re dressedwith chive oil, curry oil, and alemon beurre blanc. They comewith a shredded potato cake (rosti)topped with scallion greens andsautéed seasonal vegetables .Hawaiian swordfish(shutome) has fatter flesh than isusual for this species and is complementedby a sun-dried tomatobasil butter touched with onionsand olive oil. The plate is completedby grilled potato batonsand a tarragon-infused corn,tomato, and bean succotash.Alaskan halibut is pan-roasted,topped with diced raw tomatoesand plated over a mound of rice.Around it floats a Thai coconutredcurry sauce, with a spicinessof, say, number six on the heatscale at a Thai restaurant. A halfdozen black mussels circle theraft of fish and rice. (The musselsand sauce are available fishlessas an appetizer.) I enjoyed thedish but found it less ravishing thanlast week’s halibut at the CoronadoBoathouse, where themacadamia crust drove me nuts.Johnston added another halibutcomposition to the summer menu,featuring fresh corn salsa, polenta,and pesto. That might be a goodbet. (The chef’s other originaldish is the grilled Mexican yellowtailwith an Asian glaze,available according to the catch.)McC&S has plunged intothe issue of sustainable catches,and several menu items reflectthis concern. The menu includesfour farm-raised species, includingEcuadorian tilapia (with acashew crust and Jamaican rumbutter); Idaho rainbow trout(with the standard lemon-caperbutter); and Louisiana catfish, aclean-tasting specimen in a crackercrust and Dijon sauce. Salmonfarming is more controversial,and right now the menu playsboth sides, offering farmed Atlanticsalmon and wild King salmon(for as long as its season lasts). TheKing salmon comes from Oregonand lacks the fatty richness ofwild catch from colder waters,but it does offer a chance to trya traditional Northwestern NativeAmerican specialty. The fish iscooked on a soaked cedar plank,so it absorbs flavor from the wood.It’s served with the same Northwestberry sauce as the John Dory.Desserts are house-made.Some are corporate recipes, buta few have been developed inhouseby pastry chef Luís Martinez.The waitperson displays the dailyassortment on a tray and describeseach. We passed on “Jake’s famousflourless chocolate cake” (betterknown as chocolate decadence).My favorite was a brioche breadpudding layered with loose custardand caramel. A chocolatemousse cake looked like a swollenDing-Dong, a ball of intensesweetness glazed in bittersweetganache. A Napoleon offeredcrisped shreds of brioche filledwith almond paste and passionfruit juice, garnished with strawberries.I liked its sophisticated aura,but the flavors didn’t rouse mypassions. Following the cookingat McC&S branches nationwide,it was flawless and forgettable.ABOUT THE CHEFBrian Johnston started out workingin restaurants during highschool and soon decided he’drather be a chef than a dishwasher.He attended the legendary LeVarenne cooking school in Paris,then came back to the States andstarted learning his craft. Afterworking under Martin Woesleat Mille Fleurs, he went to El Bizcochoand over a decade rosefrom sauce chef to chef de cuisine.After a stint running a smallNorth County hotel, in 1999 hewas hired as executive chef at thenewly renovated Star of the Sea.Hoping to get to know his childrenbefore they grew up and lefthome, last May he took a “corporatechef” job as food andbeverage director developingmenu items for the ChampagneBakeries chain. Shortly after hisarrival, personnel changes at ahigher level diminished the scopeof the job he was hired for. Nowapproaching 40, he jumped backinto the kitchen and onto thecooking line at the new <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong>branch of McCormick &Schmick’s in January.When I spoke to the restaurantmanager a few days afteropening, I was assured the restaurantwas running at full speed.But three months later, it’s juststarting to find its way. “Openingup this project has been achallenge,” says Brian. “We’rethe only restaurant in the hotel,with 285 seats and doing breakfast,lunch, and dinner, and I alsodo the room service for the hotel.The place is incredibly large, andwe serve food 17 hours a day. Forthe first couple of months I wasworking those 14-, 15-hour days,trying to start a place from scratch.The hotel has their own chef aswell, doing all their catered eventsand banquets. We share thekitchen. We’re an independentcontractor within the hotel, sowe have to decide who’s responsiblefor what... This makes it aninteresting relationship.“McCormick’s is a goodcompany, and working for themhas been educational. I did fourweeks of training in their storesin Los Angeles. That’s unusualfor them; most of their chefs havebeen promoted within the company.In this particular situation,they felt it was important to havesomebody from <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> who’shad a lot of hotel experience. Iseemed to be a good fit, so theymade me an offer to come workfor them.“The menu’s not really mineyet, it was given to me by thecompany, the same one they useat their new branch in <strong>San</strong> Jose.I just try and manage it as best asI can. Later, I can put in up to 60percent of my own dishes, but atthis point, after three months,I’m just trying to put all the systemsin place. Whenever youopen a place new, you end uplosing about 70 percent of yourstaff in the first three monthsafter you open. People part waysfor various reasons — theyexpected something different, oryou hired them expecting somethingdifferent from them — sothat’s part of the challenge of tryingto get organized. And whenyou open brand-new, you don’thave any precedents, you don’tknow what your business levelsare going to be and how to stafffor that. We know by now thaton home-game nights the placeis totally crazy from 5:00 to 7:15!And we’re one of very few placesnear the convention center thatserves lunch, so we’re capturingmore and more of that.“That’s why I’ve made veryfew changes on the menu so far.You can’t run until you’re walkingwell. We’re making progressall the time. We’re still really earlyon after three months... We’vecontinued to tweak and adjustthe menu.”I asked him when he’d startto change the menu to his ownflavors. He guessed it would beafter the baseball season ends.First he’ll probably take a longplanned,now-postponed vacationto Puerto Vallarta.

S AND IEGOR EADER.COMBusywork Hugs“That’s why I started the food. Starbucks is toopowerful.”‘You want Ethiopian?” said my friendRuss on the phone last time we spoke.“Cajon Coffee Company.”Sounded funny, but I didn’t think about it tilltoday. Hank and I are heading for Parkway Plazain El Cajon. At West Main, Hankhangs a left at the new Starbucksonto Magnolia. And a block up Ispot a sign. “B’s Cajon CoffeeCo.” Little blue-and-white place.“Hey. That’s it,” I say. “KnowRuss?”“Nope.”“He says that little coffee placehas food. Ethiopian.”“Coffee place? Oh, yeah. Figures. Ethiopia’swhere coffee was first grown.”“Not Seattle?”He doesn’t even laugh. But he’s hooked onthe idea. Man’s into Ethiopian. He swings into thelot behind, and we walk up to a pretty nice-lookingdeck with tables and umbrellas at the back,through a swing door, and into what looks like,well, a living room. Filled mainly with men sittingon couches, slurping java joes, and yakkingaway. Then we find ourselves in a little L-shapedcounter area with seven stools. A woman steamsmilk at a noisy coffee machine. Couple of guyshold up the bar. Aha! One’s eating food.“So it’s true,” I say. “You do food?”The woman turns. She smiles a really bigsmile. Beautiful. This has to be B.ED BEDFORD“Hello. Yes, we do food.”“Ethiopian?”“Definitely. From two o’clock. But I can startearly.”I see Hank’s under the spell of those eyesalready.We find a couple of sparestools. Place has faux-painted orange-and-goldwalls, white lacecurtains, photos, knickknacks,and posters. “Charming Ethiopia:13 months of sunshine,” oneposter says.A blackboard lists specials.“What’s that you’ve been eating?” I ask theguy finishing off his plateload.“Chicken cacciatore,” he says. Paul. “I’m inhere all the time. Where else could you get chicken,noodles, garlic bread, and a salad for $4.95?”Man’s got a point. But I want Ethiopian. Theyseem to have one item, B’s Plate. It’s $5.95, witha drink, and comes with siga wot (beef stew), injera(the honeycombed Ethiopian fermentedbread), greens, cabbage, ayib.Hank turns to B. “I’ll have B’s Plate and aniced tea.”Damn. Man’s stolen my thunder.“And you?” B says.Hmm. See they have “lunch and breakfastserved all day.” Scrambled eggs with “home skilletpotatoes and toast” are $3.75, or $4.95 with coffee.With bacon or sausages, $4.55. Healthy Skillet, withRESTAURANTSbulgur wheat, eggs, and vegetables, is $3.00. Forlunch they have a turkey or ham sandwich withlettuce, tomato, and chips for $4.25; a tuna saladon a bed of lettuce, or as a sandwich, for $4.25; anda BLT with chips or a pickle for $3.55.And they have soup. Lentil, with chicken, vegetables,chili, and onion. Three sizes. With lunch, $1.75;on its own, $2.25; and large, with crackers, $3.25.“Well, I’ll take the soup, plus somethingEthiopian, but not the same as Hank,” I say.“The Healthy Skillet is really Ethiopian,” says B.“Okay. And some coffee. Ethiopian?”“Colombian today. But you can buyEthiopian beans.”An old guy comes up and plonks himself atthe bar. “Got something for you,” he says to B.Hauls out a big can from his jacket. “This will reallydo you good. Couple of teaspoons a day.”He opens it up. Yeast flakes.“People love B,” says this other guy, Bill, who’ssitting nursing a coffee. He’s a chef himself.“That’s why they come here. Plus, she makes amean turkey sandwich. Turkey’s piled this thick.”He measures his fingers at a couple of inches.About five minutes later B appears with two bowlsof lentil soup with crackers. Oh, yes. That is go-ood.You crunch garlic and ginger, and they release tastesthat turn plain into sexy. Next come the main dishes.On bright-colored plates. Mine’s a bowl of brownrice-lookingstuff with dots of carrots, peas, limabeans, beef, and eggs mixed in. Plus a slice of garlicbread that, somehow, you don’t need. The tastes aregentle. It’s filling. If I were at home I’d sneak some soysauce on it, but no way I’m going to ask for it here.Hank’s plate bulges with cut-up injera (thebread), siga wot (beef stew), cabbage, and a littlewhite mountain of ayib — a kind of cottagecheese. It’s working. The man is silent.Not B or the rest of the crowd. The B stands forBezuwork. We can’t help laughing about how — withher one-woman operation — a name that soundslike “busywork” hits the nail on the head. She wasmarried in Ethiopia, came here 13 years ago, separated,and is bringing up her two teenage kids as asingle mom. It’s hard, but they help after school.She took this place over a couple of years ago,just as Starbucks was setting up on the corner.“That’s why I started the food,” she says. “Starbucksis too powerful.”Of course, she has everything Starbucksdoes — the lattes, the mochas, and smoothies aswell. She has even installed an Internet hotspot.Guess the difference comes at the end. Whenwe get up to go, B comes around and gives us ahug. Hank’s a little flustered. “Wow,” he says.“Sure wouldn’t get that at Starbucks.” ■The Place: B’s Cajon Coffee Company, 330 North Magnolia Avenue, El Cajon (619-588-6376)Type of Food: American, EthiopianPrices: Scrambled eggs, skillet potatoes, toast, $3.75, $4.95 with coffee; with bacon or sausage, $4.55; HealthySkillet, with bulgur wheat, eggs, vegetables, $3.00, with beef or chicken, $3.55, with coffee, $4.95; chicken cacciatore,with garlic bread, salad, $4.95; B’s Plate (Ethiopian), beef stew, injera, greens, cabbage, ayib (cottage cheese), $5.95;turkey or ham sandwich with lettuce, tomato, chips, $4.25; tuna salad or tuna sandwich, $4.25; BLT with chips orpickle, $3.55; lentil soup, with chicken, vegetables, chili, onion, $1.75, $2.25, $3.25Hours: Monday to Saturday, 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.; Sunday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.Bus: 815Nearest Bus Stop: Magnolia and Douglas138 <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Reader</strong> July 15, 2004➤ Any size collection➤ Cutting-edge technology➤ Pickup, delivery, shipping & receiving➤ Russ's weekly wine tip: Wine is scored on a point system.Listed below are the five main categories.• 95-100 points: A great classic wine • 90-94 points: An outstanding wine• 85-89 points: A very good wine • 80-84 points: A good wine• 70-79 points: An average wine1330 G Street • 619-234-5757Wednesday-Sunday 12-6 pmwww.fiftysevendegrees.com

Lamb shish kebabis the house specialty, a “loss leader”featuring tender premium lamb cubeswith assertive seasonings, grilled overgas.

The chef-owner couple, Jean-Louis and Rosanna Martin, are fromFrance and Venice respectively, but theirmenu covers the map of Italy, with dishesfrom nearly every region. You can’t gowrong with pastas like rigatoni allanorcina or the lighter-than-usual lasagnadella casa done in Bolognese style. Saveroom for one of the ethereal custardydesserts, perhaps a panna cotta orbavarese. Best seats in the house are onthe front and back patios — even Highway101 is quieter than the charminglyrustic but rackety interior. Vegetarianfriendly, with nearly 20 meatless pastasand pizzas. Wheelchair access to restrooms requires help. Lunch and dinnerdaily. Pastas and pizzas low moderate,entrées upper moderate. —N.W. (12/03)Roxy Natural Foods Restaurant517 North Coast Highway 101 (at DStreet), Encinitas, 760-436-5001. Youdon’t have to be a Self Realization Fellowshipfollower to fit in in Encinitas,but it helps. Roxy was made for the veggiecrowd who’ve grown up around thefamous seaside compound. These days,that includes surfers, vegans, and evenvisiting Hollywood stars picky abouttheir food. Actually, it is no longer strictlya vegetarian eatery: the owners haveadded chicken and fish for Encinitas’s“new people” — the carnivores buyingup property in the hills. But the veganveggiespirit still rules. Most popular itemon the menu is owner Shahram Naimi’sown invention: the scrumptious Roxyfalafelburger. Its green “meat” is madefrom garbanzo beans, potatoes, onions,cilantro, and herbs, all bedded downwith tomatoes, a thick mat of sprouts,and melted cheese, covered by a wholewheatbun. For chicken-lovers, the garlicchicken pizzas sell big-time. Otherhealthy treats include the three-egg avocadoomelet with toast, the artichokesandwich (with marinated artichokehearts), and the squash enchilada dinner(steamed banana squash with corn,bell peppers, and low-fat cream cheese ina flower tortilla). Payoff? You come outfeeling good and full, not bad andbloated. Open daily, brunch throughdinner. Inexpensive. — E.B.

You’ll findinventive combinations of first-class ingredients,skillfully executed and beautifullypresented with none of the culinaryclichés of the “mamma mia” joints.Reservations urged. Valet parking freefor diners. “Casual-elegant” — no hats,shorts, or tennies — but room may bepainfully noisy if patrons get too festive.Dinner seven nights. Four-course tastingdinner a relative bargain, but wine listmay blow the budget. Moderate (pastasand risottos) to very expensive. —N.W.

You’ll find a tasteof Hawaii in a strip mall in a neighborhoodthat’s all-mall. The bright little“hut” has bamboo chairs, a bamboo ceiling,bare floors, and unclothed tables,with a sushi counter next to a tinykitchen with a roaring gas grill. A largelattice awning offers outdoor seating afew steps from the door. The quality ofthe food is all over the map, though —this is not the place to try your first Spamsushi. The seafood sushi is good, though,including a fine Rainbow Roll with reallysweet crab; the more creative rolls run tocream cheese and hot sauce. “Localfood” choices include a tasty ahi pokéand excellent chicken katsu; the kalbishort ribs are tough, though. Platelunches include one to three entrées(priced accordingly) with steamed ormildly garlic-flavored rice, macaronisalad, and green salad with bright orangedressing à la Kraft French. Be sure theydeliver what you ordered; there may beslipups. Open seven days, lunch and dinner.Very inexpensive. — N.W. (8/03)Centre City Cafe 1680 S.

Severalcuts of USDA Choice steaks are offeredat rock-bottom prices, and early birddinners and daily specials offer amazingbargains. You can eat inside, in a coffeeshopambiance, or chow down on thedining terrace in front. Open daily, threemeals. Huge portions, low prices. —N.W. (9/03)Chieu-Anh Vietnamese Cuisine16769 Bernardo Center Drive, Suite 10(Rancho Bernardo Town Center), RanchoBernardo, 858-485-1231. This verypretty restaurant in an attractive Asianthemedmini-mall offers South Vietnamesespecialties rarely found in theNorth Inland area. Not all dishes on thelengthy menu are equally successful,though. Among the best are the “royalegg roll” wrapped around a shrimp, thepineapple-sweetened “tangy and sour”soups, the tender roast Cornish hen withFive Spices seasoning and the catfish claypot with herbs. The crêpes are a goodbet, too. In salads and stir-fried dishes,though, the kitchen may overcook redmeats until tough, and sauces can beheavy with cornstarch. Incidentally,don’t look for pho on the dinnermenu — it’s served at lunch only. Numerousvegetarian choices. Lunch Tuesdaythrough Friday; dinner Tuesdaythrough Sunday. Inexpensive tomoderate. — N.W. (9/03)Hacienda de Vega 2608 S. EscondidoBoulevard (frontage road alongCentre City Parkway), Escondido,760-738-9805. This is a Mexican restaurantwith a difference — or two.

First-rate service. Open Mondaythrough Saturday; closed Sunday.Moderate to expensive. — E.W.Boo Cho Korean Barbecue 7905Engineer Road (a block east of Convoy),Kearny Mesa, 858-573-2585. What setsBoo Cho apart from other Korean barbecuesis that wood charcoal rather thangas fuels the tabletop grills — provingeasier to control as well as lending moreflavor. The galbi (short ribs) here are outstanding,with tender meat and a subtlysweet marinade, and the hae mui pa junWhat the Chef Eats(mixed seafood pancake) is moist andlight. As at all Korean restaurants, withany dinner you’ll receive numerous smallplates of relishes and vegetables (calledpan chan), lending a multitude of flavorsRED SNAPPER IN PARCHMENTBY CHAD NORMANExecutive Chef, Friars Folly, <strong>San</strong> MarcosI love fishing. I fish at LakeDixon and out of theharbor in Oceanside. It’ssomething I do in myspare time. This is a recipeI thought of myself for thesnapper.When I get homeafter work on weekends,this is something very easyto make. I usually makethis for just me and mywife. She loves it.I often do it on thegrill and use aluminum foilinstead of the parchmentpaper. It’s a little hard tocut aluminum foil into aheart shape, so you canjust place the fish in thecenter of a piece of foil andbunch the top together.On a hot grill it willprobably cook in tenminutes.This dish is real light.It’s great during thesummer when it’s hot.And it’s simple to prepare.I drink beer with it.The Stone Brewery pale aleis my favorite with thisdish. I don’t drink muchwhite wine, but I wouldrecommend serving awhite wine with this.HOW TO DO ITFold parchment paper inhalf and cut paper to formhalf a heart. Open thepaper (should be heartshaped)and place the fishskin-side down on onehalfof the paper. Coat thesnapper with Old Bayseasoning, crushed redpepper, lemon peel, andparsley. Place the carrots,broccoli, garlic, shallot,to the meal. But since Korean dinnersare traditionally served all at once, if youwant a first-course soup or appetizer, orderit separately, and when it arrives, orderyour main course. (Table room canand tomato to fit snuglyaround the fish. Add saltand pepper mostly to thefish and the remainder tothe vegetables. Place butteron the fish and add lemonjuice.Fold the other half ofthe paper over the fish andwrap the bottom side overthe top, forming a seal allthe way around the fish.Bake at 400 degrees for 12minutes. Remove fromoven and cut a slit in thetop of the bag. Carefullypull back edges of paperand enjoy. (This can alsobe done on the grill,substituting aluminum foilfor parchment paper.)This recipe serves one.INGREDIENTS1 sheet parchment paperget skimpy once the grill gets going.) Themenu includes three “family combinationdinners” but they’re written in Korean;if interested, ask the owner or managerto translate for you. Open Monday1 8-ounce fillet of red snapper1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper¼ teaspoon dried lemon ororange peel½ teaspoon fresh parsley,choppedA few baby carrots4 ounces broccoli florets1 large garlic clove, smashedand chopped1 small shallot, quartered1 tomato, quartered¾ teaspoon crushed blackpepper¾ teaspoon kosher salt2 tablespoons unsalted butter,cut in pats½ teaspoon lemon juicethrough Saturday, lunch and dinner;Sunday dinner only. Moderate. —N.W. (11/03)IKEA Restaurant & Cafe 2149 FentonParkway, Mission Valley,619-283-6166, ext.1200. Central shrinefor <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong>’s 10,000 Swedes, so theysay. They come to taste open-faced sandwiches,salmon, shrimp, and meatballsagain. This restaurant inside Sweden’swildly successful “home interiors” chainis a great intro to Swedish tastes. Thefood’s more sensible than exciting, ofcourse. But healthy — beef and pork forthe meatballs are guaranteed hormonefree.You eat the meatballs with Swedishlingonberry (not cranberry) sauce. Fishis big: the shrimp open-faced sandwich,the salmon plate with potatoes and broccoli,and the Gravad Lox Plate (curedsalmon), are always on. And if you wantto be disgustingly healthy, chew on theirfresh vegetable plate (raw carrot sticks,cauliflower, garbanzo beans, and mushrooms).All for a song. The only healthhazard: hordes of babies and kids rompingin the restaurant’s mother-friendlyplay area. Inexpensive. — E.B. (5/02)Seoul B.B.Q. 4344 Convoy Street,Kearny Mesa, 858-505-8700. This Koreanrestaurant means sitting before asizzling cast-iron grill, sipping hot sake,the smell of grilled beef, grilled onions,and fresh garlic in the air. Try the “KoreanB.B.Q.” marinated short ribs (tonggalbi) or thick marbled slices of sirloin(beef gui). You’ll enjoy all the accompanyingdishes that make the meal, likecrunchy seaweed salads, radishes in garlickytomato sauce, slow-cooked potatoeswith soy sauce and jalapeño pepper.Feeling adventurous? Go for the goatmeat hot pot or Korean steak tartare(yukhwoe). This is sensual, elemental,hairy-chested food. — M.N. (12/99)THE BEACHESThe Australian Pub 1014 GrandAvenue, Pacific Beach, 858-273-9921.

(10/01)Broken Yolk Cafe 1851 Garnet Avenue,Pacific Beach, 858-270-YOLK(9655). Breakfasting PBers love this placefor three reasons: its sundeck, its 26 differentfour-egg omelets (which you cansplit with your partner, no extra charge),and the challenge of omelet #27. Thedozen-egg “Broken Yolk Café Special”comes stuffed with a mountain of mushrooms,onion, cheese, chili, plus homefries and biscuits. If you can down it inan hour, pay just $1.98 — you’ve gothuevos. If you can’t, the yolk’s on you —pay around $17. My advice: split a 4-egger.Open 6 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily. Inexpensive.— E.B. (2/04)The Fishery 5040 Cass Street, PacificBeach, 858-272-9985.

If ambition occasionallyoutstrips execution, an obsessionwith freshness helps compensate,and you get the sense that things are gettingbetter all the time. The wine list isrelatively inexpensive and carefully selected.Casual atmosphere. Open daily,lunch and dinner. Moderate toexpensive. — A.M. (12/03)Gringo’s 4474 Mission Boulevard (atGarnet Avenue), Pacific Beach,858-490-2877. With better cooking thanyou’d guess from its name, this ambitiousspin-off of the local Moondoggieschain serves the sort of Mexican cuisineyou might find at a seaside resort in Caboor Puerto Vallarta — skillfully preparedwith good, fresh ingredients, just a bitdumbed-down in the flavors. The chileverde, say, is beautifully seasoned ifbarely picante, and the luscious camaronesborrachos are big white shrimpcooked just till done and not a momentmore. Given the surefire location at thehub of PB partytown, the food is actuallybetter than it needs to be. A vast listof tequilas, interesting margaritas, and asensible wine list emphasizing affordable,food-friendly Chilean bottlings addto the draw for a lively young crowd thatrevs the decibels to a roar on weekends.Open daily.

Salmon overfettuccine in a delicate dill cream sauceis especially fine. The huge array ofdesserts is house made, too, with somethingfor every palate. The most desirabletables (available first come, first served)are on a lovely fireplace-heated patio.Wheelchair ramp and parking in smalllot behind restaurant (call ahead andthey’ll save you a spot).

Venerable,local steak-and-seafood joint that triesharder, from the broth-thin homemadeteriyaki sauce (sweet up front, fading tobitter ginger) for the well-cooked (ifmild-flavored) fish to the cut-on-thepremisesaged beef. The interior’s lowwood-slat ceilings, driftwood beams,dim light, and red-leather booths combinewith the stay-up-late kitchen tomake the space feel like a cozy haven, arespite from the brighter buzz of MissionBeach.

It has acovered porch, a side-slung patio, andlow-slung ceilings, so everything feels intimate.You sit down at varnished inlaidwooden tables, lots of diagonal timbering,and sexy blue lighting. It’s oftencrowded and laugh-loud noisy. Who’sgonna be food-picky here? You, whenyou’re paying twenty-some bucks for asteak or a piece of mako shark. The menupromises big with items like“Horseradish Crusted Salmon” and “Avocadoand Pistachio Crusted Mako.”Problem is, the taste of the mako is pleasantbut underwhelming despite helpfrom a mango-butter sauce, and the two3-square-inch pieces of fish were onlyjust enough. On the other hand, theprime rib, surf n’ turf, and tournedoswill fill you fine. If you want to beat thebig prices, try the beach burger or aseared ahi Caesar salad. And the view isfree.

Preparationsfollow the convention of contrastsin sophisticated cuisine — sweet vs. salty,soft vs. crunchy, hot vs. cold.

Open for dinnernightly. Moderate. — M.N. (8/99)Old Mill Cafe 3949 Ohio Street (atUniversity Avenue), North Park,619-294-3804. The best-kept secret inNorth Park looks like a Swiss chalet inside,but serves 1950s American eats inbig platefuls. Breakfast buffs shouldcheck out the pork chops with two eggs,potatoes, and toast, or biscuits and gravy,or the famous pigs in a blanket (threesausage links rolled in hot cakes withpowdered sugar).

This is thebaby of Tony Seales, the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> proheavyweight boxer. Tony’s originallyfrom Chicago. He knows ribs, and he inventedhis own BBQ sauce recipe; evenhis employees don’t know the formula.But try it on cheap deals like the BBQchicken sandwich. Add other great dealslike collard greens, red beans and rice,jambalaya, spicy spaghetti, sweet potatopie, macaroni and cheese, and that ohso-deliciouspeach cobbler.

Geno’s a real guy, arefugee from corporate America whoturned this ex-Taco Bell joint into a surfing-themedBBQ place. He’s a surfer buthe’s serious. He has won lots of prizes forhis BBQ sauce, using a chili pepper hesays nobody else has. There are threestrengths: “Round-up” (mild), “Giddyup”(spicy), or “Stampede” (hot). Try#5, pulled pork and slaw, or #9, shreddedbeef, melted jack, and sautéedonions.

It has the feel ofa pub: nice solid-wood furniture, pooltables, dart boards, big open kitchen inback. Most of all, people know eachother. As for the food — yes, there’s a littlebit of Ireland, like the corned beefsandwiches, but mostly it’s all-Americanpre-health-craze cholesterol city.Denver egg omelets with home fries,Philly cheese steaks, spaghetti and garlicbread, hamburgers, jalepeño poppers,steak and eggs, and of course fish andchips.

Breakfastand lunch daily except Sunday. Inexpensive.— E.B. (2/04)Toshi Sushi 5943 El Cajon Boulevard,College Area, 619-287-3536. Don’t askwhat’s in the “dynamite” sauce (besidesthe obvious mayo and smelt roe) — it’sa house secret, one the restaurant danglesbefore you in numerous contexts.Try it baked onto the rich, everythinggoesGarbage Roll, where deep-friedshrimp, freshwater eel, and tuna add flavorto the creamy-crunchy interplay ofsauce and vegetables. Rolls, both plainand elaborate, abound here. While somecan be heavy on the rice and light on thefish, others are triumphs. The ToshiTempura Special Roll takes batteredwhitefish and wraps it around the seaweedcasing, which is then filled withjust-cooked whitefish and a host of garnishes— an exotic-yet-homey fried-fishalternative. The Johnny Roll shows octopusat its most tender, but watch outfor spotlight-hogging sweet creamcheese. The simpler sushi can vary — abrilliant, translucent slice of tuna offsetby a blander, duller salmon. Japanese entréesare also available. Inexpensive tomoderate. — A.M. (4/02)Village Garden Restaurant andBakery 8384 La Mesa Boulevard, LaMesa, 619-462-9100. The Garden is partof what makes La Mesa Village great. Itsvine-covered garden patio is wonderfulon warm evenings. The decor inside iskind of grandma-ish, lots of green andwhite, with flower-shaped lamps sproutingout of overhead fans and brass railswith momsy curtains between thebooths. It’s bright and cheery. And soare the prices. This is traditional fare:creamed chipped beef on toast, sandwiches,a dozen different omelets, salads,and eight “signature” “big game”burgers. Maybe the best thing is theirbread. Big, tender, and baked right there.Two must-haves: the Country Boy Sampler(a mix of Virginia baked ham,chicken, and dumplings), and a takehomeloaf of their apple-nut bread. Onesniff and you’re gone.

Owner Bernard Hessmust be from Alsace, on the French-Germanborder — who else would offerboth frog’s legs in garlic sauce and a tasty,credible choucroute garni (sauerkrautand smoked meat casserole, includinghouse-smoked pork chops)? At this localfavorite, the space divided between aconvivial bar and a dining room withlunch-counter and booth seating, themenu includes German, French, andtruck-stop U.S. classics — schnitzel sideby side with chicken-fried steak. Thewaitresses know most patrons by name,and the patrons walk in already knowingwhat they’re going to order —mainly the Alsatian specialties.

The vibe in this tastefullittle trattoria (with adjoining bar) isyoung, and so is the chef, still slippingnew dishes into a menu stuffed with localfavorites. The theme is Tuscan-American,shrimp involtini alongside applewood-smokedpork salad (the latter,especially, is a smoky, nutty, tangy hit).The pizzas are outstanding — such alovely, airy, silken crust! Such wafer-thinrounds of pepperoni! Entrées changewith the seasons. Desserts are big andsweet. When the weather’s fine, dine onthe patio and watch the sun drape lightover the piney hills. Daily, lunch anddinner, plus Sunday brunch. Expensive.— A.M.

The “Joe and the Volcano”-style place with a fountain tower gurglingin the center is Paipa’s. Pay thewoman. Now decide: a lot of a little, ora little of a lot. The huge salad bar is surroundedby a groaning U-shaped tableladen with everything from peel ‘n’ eatshrimp to baked cod to Certified BlackAngus prime rib.

(10/01)UPTOWN &OLD TOWNBombay Exotic Cuisine Of India3975 Fifth Avenue (between Universityand Washington), Hillcrest,619-298-3155. We’re talking northernIndia here, right? That means lots oflamb, potatoes, creamy sauces, tandoorbakedbreads, chicken, and less of thesouth’s mouth-scalding heat. At least inits daily buffet, Bombay’s a lot less spicy,(though their sag paneer — creamy,cheesy spinach — delivered a surprisingpunch). The buffet includes tandoorichicken, assorted pakoras (lentil-batterfritters), mock duck, chicken tikka, and,if you hit the right day, an addictivemango soup. If you want meat or spicyfood, best to order from the menu — say,a creamy tikka masala with lamb, or longkebabs of minced lamb (kebab curry), orthe rich Bombay Coconut Malai. Tellthem whether you want it mild, spicy or,for leather-mouths, tikhi. For a cheap,light meal, try a couple of lamb samosas.And be sure they bring the chutneys, India’sreal unexplored treasure.

They’ve done a good job ofcleaning it up without gutting the fiftiesroadhouse character. It’s open all nighton weekends, and late night is quite ascene. But for a lot of people, breakfastis the thing. The Brians’ 8-ounce charbroiledtop sirloin steak with eggs andcountry potatoes is a great Saturdaymorning treat. Or the “Hey Ricky!!!,” anomelet with chorizo, avocado, greenchilies, onions, and cheeses. Or ask fortheir off-menu breakfast special — it’s alwayscheaper. Another good thing: Youget a pitcher of iced lemon-water, andcoffee comes by the Thermos-full. Threemeals until 10 p.m. Sunday throughThursday; open 24 hours from early Fridaymorning until Sunday evening. Inexpensive.— E.B.

She and her husbandare usually slaving away in thekitchen preparing for the constant banquetsthey seem to cater. She has cookedfor Julie Andrews, Governor JerryBrown, and Linda Ronstadt. For you,she’ll cook great breakfast omelets (theProvençal, with peppers, mushrooms,tomatoes, and onions, or the smokedsalmon are two good ones). They comewith sautéed potatoes with the perfecttang of garlic. Lunchtime, the saladeniçoise (with tuna, anchovies, olives, andpotatoes on lettuce) is the real thing, andso is the quiche Lorraine. But be like theFrench: have your main meal in the middleof the day. Weekdays, breakfast andlunch. Inexpensive. — E.B.

Dinner only, sevennights. Very expensive. — N.W. (11/03)Strip Club 340 Fifth Avenue (at JStreet), Gaslamp, 619-231-3140. Thisgrill-your-own steak joint is a homageto Golden Hill’s Turf Supper Club —but if Turf is a low-budget indie cult film,Strip Club is the Gaslamp’s big, brassy,high-budget Hollywood remake (eventhough prices, like those of movie tickets,are roughly the same). It’s loud andhandsome, and if the USDA Choicesteaks (available in numerous cuts) arenot quite as flavorful as Turf’s, they’restill good enough for the price — andyou can take them up a notch with numerousspice blends and sauces on handat each gas grill. Other choices includeburgers, chicken breast, ahi tuna steak,and meat or seafood kabobs (the shrimpis particularly good, with peppers,onions, and meaty hunks of Portobellomushroom).

The dinner menu herehas California’s typical dumbed-downworld-appetizer array, plus salads, pastas,grilled meats, a few sautée items andchildren’s plates. The restaurant is veryfamily-friendly (full o’ kids, actually),with a menu that appeals to the youngin mouth: The chef seems to have a sweettooth, since almost every dish involveshoney or sugar — from the table butterthat’s intriguingly flavored with a honeybasilmixture to the “teriyaki” ribs in aglutinous Karo-like sauce.

The cream andmaroon colors, the cafeteria tray-on-railssystem, and the cabbagy-gravy smell tellyou this is a cold weather comfort-foodstation. They’re generous with dishes likemeat loaf, stuffed cabbage, and roastchicken. The counter guys also make hotsandwiches (pastrami, corned beef, beefbrisket, barbecued chicken) or cold(honey-cured ham, roast beef, tuna).Best deal? For many, the roasted turkey.A fresh-cooked bird arrives everyevening except Sunday. Come right after4 p.m. to get first carvings and tonsof fixin’s. Prices? For Coronado, prettyreasonable.

This bright, hectic bistronext door to the Lamb’s Players Theatredraws pre-theatre crowds as well as locals— and that may be a problem, sincethe rushed pace of service doesn’t abateeven after the playgoers have departed.Perhaps that’s why there are few appetizerchoices (as though to discouragediners from spending extra time at thetable). You may even be charged a “splitplate” fee for sharing a first course despiteordering individual entrées. Meatand fish choices are simply prepared withingredients of ordinary quality andgeneric veggie accompaniments. Why,then, is Rhino so popular? Pasta (andnothing but pasta) is the answer — that’swhere the kitchen shines. Very noisywhen crowded; street tables are slightlyquieter despite heavy traffic.

Play gaucho and enjoy themost authentic Argentine parrillada(mixed grill) in town at this charming,warmly decorated bistro about two minutesfrom the Chula Vista ShoppingCenter. Fine, smoky wood-grilled Coloradobeef appears in several unusualcuts (including succulent steak-cutshort-ribs). You can choose from twodifferent mixed grills (sized for one ortwo), the first with conventional meats,the other — the more adventurous —includes organ meats and blood sausage.For starters, there are brilliantly seasonedmini-empanadas of amazing lightness,as well as several interesting salads. Thosenot in a grilled-meat mood can opt fornumerous pastas (including a big, meatylasagna) or the ubiquitous milanesa(breaded beef or chicken patties) of thepampas.

La BelleClaude, named after the owner’s daughter,looks far too expensive, but it’s not.Inside it’s a light and airy place, full ofbeautifully varnished wood, almost likea ship’s saloon, with little Eiffel towerspainted here and there, Victorian ceilingfans and lamps, and a counter of displaycases stuffed with cookies, artilyfrosted cakes, cheeses, and sodas. Themenu is authentic too, offering such lightdishes as Le Croque Monsieur (openfacedsandwich on honey bread withham, grilled Swiss cheese, and béchamelsauce), the Croque-Madame (same as the“Monsieur” but with an egg), and saladeniçoise (tuna, anchovies, tomatoes, cucumber,potatoes, egg, onions, and blackolives). You can even order a Provençalomelet (zucchini, eggplant, tomatoes,and onions). Unusual bonus: the roundcheeses, Cornish hen eggs, fresh vegetables,and honey on display all come fromthe owner’s own farm, Rancho El Eden,beyond the Rodriquez dam. Open everyday. Inexpensive. — E.B.

Look to the“Specialties” section of the huge menufor the most interesting selections. Crispquail with rose petal sauce (famed fromLike Water for Chocolate) proves outrageouslydelicious, and the seasonal chilesen nogada (meat-stuffed poblano chileswith walnut-cream and pomegranate)gain refinement from greaseless groundsirloin. Fish dishes are fresh, rich, andtender, and you’ll find nine differentways to enjoy a steak.

Here in Old Town, atleast, D’Lish gets a lot of custom frompeople who are Mex’d out, foodwise.This growing chain has always prided itselfon its Italian/California pastas, pizzas,and salads. Now Old Town (alongwith Poway) has gone carnivorous,adding marinated flank steak and a ribeye to the “bistro entrées.” If you’re orderingthe flank, well-done is a no-no.That will toughen it. But a rare flank is,well, d’lish in its marination and especiallyits pesto-like chimichurri sauce.Also good: fire-roasted vegetables pizza,where the quick roasting makes forgreat-tasting, Technicolor-bright broccoli,zucchini, eggplant, and bell peppers.And “Mediterranean chickensalad” works well, partly thanks to thetang of pepperoni chips. A big part ofthe appeal of the Old Town D’Lishbranch is the charming patio it occupies,with gas lamps, hanging flowers, and afountain. Oh, and if you’re not all-Mex’d-out, they’ve added a carne asadaburrito and other border-food choices.Other branches at Chula Vista (386 EastH Street, Suite 211, 619-585-1371); EastlakeVillage Center South (2260 OtayLakes Road, Suite 101, 619-216-3900);Poway (12265 Scripps Poway Parkway,858-693-3636); and <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> (5252Balboa Avenue, Suite 101-B,619-277-9977).

S AND IEGOR EADER.COMA Problem LikeMariaEven in her prime, she never seemed quitecontemporary.Maria Schell was a great favoriteof mine in her day, andremains so today, though Icould not expect many people born anytime after the Fifties even to recognizethe name. Her brotherMaximilian has ofcourse had better fortunein staying in frontof the cameras (DeepImpact, Little Odessa,The Freshman, and such), and hasnow augmented his modest list of directorialcredits with a documentaryportrait of his older sibling, My SisterMaria, at the Ken Cinema for a weekbeginning Friday.A wealth of clips from her actingcareer goes a long way, even if never farenough, to fill in the lineaments of herpublic persona, including several raritiesthat will have eluded even soslavish a fan as myself: her screen debut,Quarry, at age sixteen; two versions,one in German and the other in English,of The Angel with the Trumpet,co-starring in both cases a baby-facedOskar Werner; a 1985 productioncalled 1919 which her brother assessesas her “last good film.” Viewers whoREVIEWDUNCAN SHEPHERDmay be foggy on who she was will seeher in a state close to ecstasy in twodance numbers from two Dostoyevskyadaptations, The Brothers Karamazov,with Yul Brynner looking on, and WhiteNights, with a hilariousMarcello Mastroianniparticipating. Her breakthroughrole in The LastBridge, on which shemet her first husband,Horst Hachler, is given especially generousand meritorious representation,as is her role in The Hanging Tree (ina fuzzy print) opposite Gary Cooper,the man she would name in retrospectas her favorite screen partner.It was gratifying for me to hearthat, inasmuch as I sometimes feelthere are no two finer performances,male and female, in any one film inhistory. I could get a little wistful inrecollecting an era when a dime-adozenWestern (with a rockabilly titletune sung by Marty Robbins) couldbranch out and so transcend the genreas to become, besides a rip-snortingmelodrama of Gold Fever, an ineffablybeautiful love story: two lost souls,dead to the world in different waysMOVIE<strong>San</strong>d different degrees, who help eachother to rejoin the living. You will getlittle idea of that here, however. Andyou will get no clips at all from Une Vie,a/k/a End of Desire, the one missingitem from what I would consider theEssential Maria Schell. (The HangingTree, The Last Bridge, Gervaise, WhiteNights — check, check, check, check.)Nor will you get anything from her“comeback” roles, after a brief retirementat age thirty-six, in 99 Womenand Night of the Blood Monster, lowgradewomen-in-prison and witchhuntfilms, respectively, by Jess Franco,a director who personifies disrepute.Ephraim Katz in his Film Encyclopedialinks her decline to the rise ofWomen’s Liberation in the Sixties andto the attendant appetite for images ofMy Sister Mariafeminine strength and independence.I don’t know about that. Tremendoustalent was not an attribute liable to bedevalued by feminists, and the rise ofthe women’s movement cannot accountfor the likes of Raquel Welch and ElkeSommer. Besides which, Schell wasalready “out” before the movementever achieved liftoff.

number of period pieces in Schell’sfilmography and the particularprominence of 19th-century literaryadaptations: Maupassant and Zola, inaddition to the aforementioned Dostoyevskys.Even in her prime, she neverseemed quite contemporary.That outward aspect of milkmaidwholesomeness, that hopeful but notaltogether confident smile, that slightflinch as though from a blinding light,that shine in her eyes that might havecome from fleeting joy or might havecome from deeper sorrow, those worrying,querying brows, that distinctivegasping, inhaling delivery of a line, asif she had just swum a four-hundredmeterfreestyle, conveying in herbreathlessness a sense of both urgencyand unguardedness — all these thingsworked together to make her a figureof great poignance, great vulnerability.To learn more now about her personallife — the rejection by her playwrightfather, the failed marriages, the drugaddictedson, the suicide attempt, thedeteriorating health and memory, themountain of debt piled up while orderinguseless products pitched ontelevision, the seizure of her possessionsand the advertised public auction —will only intensify the effect.I can remember the dismay I felt,if not precisely how long ago I felt it,at the ghastly tabloid photos of a destituteand bedridden Schell, old,overweight, camera-unready: harvestof a paparazzi sneak-attack which thefilmmaker restages early in the courseof My Sister Maria. Frankly I had assumedthat by now she must be dead.(Deadoraliveinfo.com, the website thatanswers that question with either askull or a Smiley Face, does not evenhave a listing for her: that’s how far herstar has fallen.) The coy cameraworkin the first half-hour or so of the filmdid nothing to disabuse me of my assumption:we see no more than piecesof the titular figure from the neckdown, a TV remote control in agnarled hand, the face hidden behinda television set in the foreground atthe foot of her bed. Was this a posthumousstand-in for the actress? Or hadshe agreed to co-operate in the projecton the same terms — audio interviewsonly, no on-camera appearance —under which Marlene Dietrich hadco-operated with Maximilian Schellon his Marlene documentary?But then suddenly, uncoyly, unselfconsciously,from head to toe, thereshe is on screen — old, for sure, and“THE PERFECT SUMMER COMEDYFOR THE WHOLE FAMILY.”JIM FERGUSON, ABC-TVoverweight, but unmistakably still herself,at home now in the hills ofsouthern Austria, living on the sameproperty where she and her brotherwere born and raised (we see the actualbed in which they were delivered),attended by faithful servants and, atleast for the duration of the film, byher brother and his younger Russianwife and their daughters. We can feela certain relief. Someone’s looking afterher. She is plainly unwell, needingto be prodded to take a daily walk inthe snow to ward off ossification; butthe film is discreet, even euphemistic,in its diagnosis of her physical andmental deterioration — she is in a“twilight zone,” rather than clinically“demented,” to the point apparentlyof her delusion, while watching herbrother Max on TV in Deep Impact,that the world was actually about tocome to an end — as well as discreetin its depiction of the cause and effectof an accidental fire. There can be noquestion of exploitation: on the onehand, the brother’s care for his sisteris self-evident, and on the other handhe’s not going to make much hay intoday’s world off a documentary onMaria Schell.She herself proves to be still in possessionof sufficient faculties to beasked, for the record, some probingquestions: “How was the moment whenyou knew Mama was dying?” “Whatdo you consider the most importanttimes of your life?” “Do you think youwere a good mother?” All of this shouldbe of considerable interest no matterhow well the viewer knew her beforehand.For a viewer such as me, it comesas an unexpected, an unimaginedbonus, tantamount to an opportunityto spend a little quality time with aloved one before the curtain falls forgood, a chance to have a last farewell.Her brother’s assessment of 1919 musthereafter be amended. Her last goodfilm is this one.* * *Everyone with access to a printedpage seems to have had something tosay, generally quite a lot to say, aboutthe death and life of Marlon Brando,a giant any way you care to measure him.(One of the less flattering ways to measurehim, apart from his later waistline,would be the extent of his perniciousinfluence, similar to that of MuhammadAli, on the less gifted: VicMorrow, John Saxon, Burt Reynolds,Tom Laughlin, Armand Assante,Michael Madsen, Mark Ruffalo, onand on.) Reading two or three of thesecommentaries cured me of any urgeto throw in more than two cents of myown, maybe just a penny. There wasonce a time I’d have been as effusiveas the next commentator, but I havelong since tended to regard Brando asan enthusiasm of my youth, like Igor“WHAT A TREASURE.“TWO THUMBS UP.”-EBERT & ROEPERI see the ‘Oscar ’ ® word all over this movie.”“KNOCKOUT PERFORMANCES...A treasure for all who cherish great popularsongs and daring love stories.”-Gene Shalit, TODAY“KEVIN KLINE IS PERFECTION.‘De-Lovely’ evokes a time, a place and asound with stylish wit and sophistication.”-Peter Travers, ROLLING STONE“★★★★REMARKABLY TOUCHINGAND ENGROSSING.”-David Sterritt, THE CHRISTIAN SCIENCE MONITOR“BRILLIANT.

It seems appropriateto reference French forerunners (althoughThe Model Shop is in Los Angelesand in English), inasmuch as Linklaterelects to reunite his young lovers in Paris,more specifically at the Shakespeare andCompany bookstore, where the man (a hollower-cheekedEthan Hawke) is readingfrom, fielding questions about, and signinghis John Hancock to, a semi-autobiographicalnovel that recounts the events of BeforeSunrise. The woman (a hollower-eyed JulieDelpy) turns up in the audience on her owninitiative to resume their conversation. Thepremise allows Linklater to replay clips,during the Q-and-A session, of their onenightstand in Vienna in the summer of’95 — a helpful refresher for the viewerwho wasn’t moved to add that title to hisvideo collection. The lovers, should youneed reminding, did not swap numbers andaddresses at their parting; and their proposedsix-month reunion, we now find out,never came about. So they hasten to catchup. They walk in the street, sit in a cafe (“Ilove this cafe. I wish they had places likethis in the U.S.”), walk in the park, sit inthe park, take a boat ride on the Seine, takea cab to, or toward, the airport, stop by herapartment on the way: the camera keepsquiet and keeps rolling. The rhythm of conversation,albeit an abnormally gushing andbubbling one, dictates the rhythm of thefilm: it would almost be Rohmer-esque (foranother French reference) if it had more ofa moral dilemma, more of a narrative situation,to accompany the yackety-yak. 2004.★★ (HILLCREST CINEMAS)Bubba Ho-tep — Prolonged dizzy spellbrought on by an ancient Egyptian SoulSucker who stalks the halls of a Texas resthome till he runs into some stiff oppositionfrom a resident who may or may not be thereal Elvis (weighing how he got there, you’dhave to guess not) and another residentwho believes he is JFK (as he’s black, there’snot much question). Ossie Davis, Jr.,sounding new depths of gravity, has an easieraccess to absurdity than has the heavilymade-up and heavily imitative BruceCampbell: what’s the difference betweenplaying Elvis and playing an Elvis impersonator?The mock-horror element is verymuch the element of director DonCoscarelli (the Phantasm series); the mockheroicelement proves to be more of areach. 2003.★ (SAN DIEGO PUBLIC LIBRARY,7/19, 6:30 P.M.)STARTSFRIDAYAMCPALM PROMENADE 24Interstate 805 & Palm Ave.858-558-2AMCEDWARDS RANCHO PACIFICSAN DIEGO STADIUM 15 GASLAMP STADIUM 15Hwy 94 at Campo, El Cajon 5th Avenue at G Street800-FANDANGO express code 132 619-232-0400ULTRASTARULTRASTARPACIFIC CINERAMA 6 MANN HAZARD CENTERDEL MAR HIGHLANDS POWAY 105831 University Ave. 7510 Hazard Center Dr.El Camino Real at Del Mar Hts.

A young girlplaintively sums up the plot: “Are you goingto stop the new monsters now?” DavidTwohy, who directed Pitch Black as well asthe equally smallish but even better The Arrival,maintains his “personal” touch oftilted cameras amid the grotesquely swollenproduction: maybe the most hideoussteroidal growth witnessed in a sequel sinceTerminator 2.

The why of thekidnapping is a mystery whose interestsoon peters out. Interest in the performanceof Helen Mirren as the wife, on theother hand, holds up throughout, even pastthe unapproachable peak of her delicatelygraded reaction to evidence that her husband’sbroken-off extramarital affair soongot picked up again. With Robert Redford,Willem Dafoe, Matt Craven; directed byPieter Jan Brugge. 2004.★ (GROSSMONT TROLLEY; HILLCREST CINEMAS;LA JOLLA VILLAGE; OCEANSIDE 16; POWAY 10)The Day after Tomorrow — Doomsdayscience fiction — emphasis, as is only fitand proper, on fiction at the expense of science— about how global warming bringson a new Ice Age in the northern hemisphere,and in consequence a southwardmigration that reverses the flow of illegalsacross the Mexican border. (That consequence,alas, is only a throwaway irony insteadof a central plotline.) The acceleratedpace of the change — the already mindbogglingsix to eight weeks projected earlyin the action must soon be revised downwardto just seven to ten days, or the durationof a single monstrous storm, a pluperfectstorm — can be taken as poetic licensefor the urgency of the situation today. Toquibble, as some have done, with the accuracyof the science, besides exposing thequibbler as a small-minded square, is simplyto get sucked into the promotionalcampaign of the film and to get sidetrackedfrom the film itself. Sidetracked, that is,from legitimate quibbles with the routinenessof the human drama (young love, filiallove, paternal love, buddy love, bibliophilelove, etc.), or with the diaphanous thinnessof the cliffhanger thrills, or with thesmoothness and seamlessness of the computer-generatedspecial effects. Smoothnessand seamlessness might sound like goodthings, but in the face of a global catastropheof this magnitude they lend a facileness,a glibness, even a glee, that trivializethe spectacle. Roland Emmerich, the directoralso of Independence Day and Godzilla,has not allowed 9/11 to much dampen hisdestructive high spirits. As long as Jake Gyllenhaaland Emmy Rossum (attractiveyoungsters, to be sure) stay warm in front
of a book-fueled fire at the New York PublicLibrary, and as long as Dennis Quaid(the I-told-you-so scientist and re-prioritizingdad) finds his way to them on snowshoes,the rest of mankind can go merrilyto hell. 2004.★ (HORTON PLAZA 14; PALM PROMENADE 24)A Day without a Mexican — Gradeschool-levelsociology lesson disguised, everso slightly, as satirical science fiction: amysterious “wall of fog” closes off Californiafrom the outside world and inexplicablycauses the disappearance of all residents ofHispanic origin, all the way, apparently, tothe Spanish-born tenor, Plácido Domingo.This in turn causes Californians torealize — duh! — that they need their Latinos.(One-third of the total population, weare instructed in one of the frequent factsand figures typed out on screen, for notetakingpurposes.) Shot on video, with a nonamecast, and directed with a heavy handby Sergio Arau, the movie arouses a senseof wonder only over its standard-issue releasein multiple multiplexes. Yareli Arizmendi,John Getz, Suzanne Friedline, MaureenFlannigan. 2004.● (GASLAMP 15)De-Lovely — Modernized biography ofsongwriter Cole Porter, digging up all thebisexuality that Night and Day in 1946could not go near. Despite the theatricaldevice of reviewing his life as a musicalshow emceed by the Grim Reaper, it remainsa rather banal backstage story, lackingmuch in the way of a focus or an angle,unswallowable as a Grand Romance, andchiefly of interest simply because its subjectwrote a lot of memorable songs. These areperformed in glorious abundance (by thelikes of Elvis Costello, Diana Krall, SherylCrow, and Natalie Cole), and Kevin Klineclearly demonstrates his gratitude for soglamorous a role, without bubbling overinto effusiveness. He has a particularly affectingfarewell to his old friends near theend of the film, but the film then bashesahead to a couple of more endings, less affecting.With Ashley Judd and JonathanPryce; directed by Irwin Winkler. 2004.★ (FLOWER HILL 4, FROM 7/16; HILLCREST CIN-EMAS; LA JOLLA 12, FROM 7/16; SANMARCOS 18, FROM 7/16)Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story —Tasteless, touchless, but strongly smellingsports comedy, wherein Average Joe’s littlemom-and-pop gymnasium and its corporateneighbor Globo Gym (“We’re betterthan you and we know it”) are on a collisioncourse for the $50,000 prize money ina Vegas dodgeball tournament.

But ifMoore were only making fun, he’d only beLeno or Letterman. He sees the big picture(sometimes too big to be easily grasped: theserpentine connections between the Bushesand the Saudis), and he sees also the littlepicture (the police infiltration of a middleclassprotest group calling itself PeaceFresno, or the bottle of breast milk stoppedat an airport checkpoint). He often stoopsto frivolity (a Dragnet montage to illustrateproper interrogation techniques, a couple ofpromo spots for at-home panic rooms andtake-to-work parachutes, John Ashcroft’sfull-chested rendition of his self-composed“Let the Eagle Soar”); and at times hestretches himself to the utmost gravity (amother’s grief over the loss of her soldierson, grisly war footage you won’t see onAmerican television). The shifts in scale andin tone are as stimulating as they arestartling. And finally, to secure the ties tohis earlier work, Moore revisits the feartheme, or in other words the mind-controltheme, from Bowling for Columbine, and inevitablyhe revisits his hometown of Flint,Michigan (see Roger and Me as well asColumbine), a prime spot for military recruitersto round up cannon fodder fromamong the unemployed. Moore himself —his rebellious rumpliness, his defiant untidiness,his cultivated slobbiness — is less onview in this one (though he is continuouslyin our ear in that singsongy, snide, sardonictone of voice), and his relative scarcity onscreen could even be seen as a shortcominginsofar as it signals a fall-off in original materialand a heavier reliance on foundfootage. Found, that is, or scrounged orwheedled or donated. 2004.★★★★ (CARMEL MOUNTAIN; ESCONDIDO 16;FLOWER HILL 4; GASLAMP 15; GROSSMONT CEN-TER; GROSSMONT TROLLEY; HAZARD CENTER 7;LA COSTA 6; LA JOLLA VILLAGE; MIRA MESA 18;MISSION MARKETPLACE 13; MISSION VAL-LEY 20; OCEANSIDE 16; PALM PROMENADE 24;PARKWAY PLAZA 18; POWAY 10; RANCHO DELREY 16; SAN MARCOS 18; TOWN SQUARE 14;VISTA VILLAGE)Harry Potter and the Prisoner ofAzkaban — Or for short, Pot III.

S AND IEGOR EADER.COMMOVIESactor now alive in the British Isles. None ofthis makes much difference, or at least notthe sort of difference to lighten the eyelids.It’s not as if Cuarón, even had he felt so inclined,could put his foot down and stemthe tide of fulsome special effects, or crackthe whip and bring in the elephantine kiddiefilm at under two hours. (It may be —if you care to go back to the earlier installmentsto check — that he has leeched outmore of the color and has added a percentageof form-stretching wide-angle shots.)He can only go along for the ride. And whata long ride it is. Story interest, even with allthat time on his hands, is minimal: Harry,now fully into adolescence (what is it he’sgetting up to in his bedroom under thesheets with his wand?), seems to be the targetof a wizardly escaped convict called SiriusBlack, who does not turn up till thehour-and-a-half mark. Werewolves play amajor role (Prof. Lupin’s name rather giveshim away), and there’s a mythical equinebird or avian horse known as a hippogriff,as well as a flying flock of faceless soulsuckerscalled Dementors. The whole stickymess is only partially cleaned up throughthe expedient of two-places-at-once timetravel.

It convinces us insteadthat in its entirety the film is even worsethan initially believed. For much of thetime, it looks more like sweepings from thecutting-room floor than like a legitimate sequel:a dumping ground for the slow parts.Certainly, any part that features David Carradine— the titular Bill, who finally puts inan appearance, tootling his own musicalmotif like Charles Bronson in Once upon aTime in the West — will necessarily be aslow part, inasmuch as the actor enunciateshis lines like a drunk driver in a roadsideconversation with a Highway Patrolman.The sole sensation of speed, the sole releasefrom the Leone-like longueurs, could comefrom getting caught up in trying to keeppace with the cinematic in-jokes and allusions.But the only profit in that line ofpursuit — a trivial pursuit par excellence —would be the verification of Tarantino’scredentials as a movie nut. His knowledgeand his enthusiasm have never been inquestion; his intelligence and taste aresomething else again. Uma Thurman,Michael Madsen, Daryl Hannah. 2004.● (GASLAMP 15)King Arthur — A printed preamble tellsof scholarly investigation to trace the legendarytitle figure to a real historical personage,a Fifth-century Sarmatian dubbedArtorius, who was posted by the Romans tohold the line against the Saxons in Britain.The film then authenticates this research byinvesting its hero (Clive Owen) with theegalitarian ideals of the Age of Enlightenment,schooling him and his knights in thecombat techniques of samurai films, andgiving one of them (Ray Winstone) the personalityof a soccer hooligan: head-buttsand the like. Guinevere (Keira Knightley)emerges as some sort of Amazon Queen, orWoman Who Runs With Wolves, or Kick-Ass Chick, or what-have-you. In any caseshe takes to the battlefield herself in leatherand face-paint, and is undeniably good fora laugh. Lancelot (Ioan Gruffudd) gazes ather with appreciation, but makes no moveto come between her and her Arthur,who’ve only just met. Merlin and his pagans,meanwhile, wait in the woods for theadvent of Alice Cooper. Camelot is nevermentioned, but a tangible Round Tableserves as a rebuke to a papal emissary whoexpects to sit at its head. From start to finishthe beauty of the legend bows to thegrubbiness of the potboiler. Which is prettymuch what you would expect from the directorof Tears of the Sun, Antoine Fuqua.In fact what you get is pretty much thesame plot: a commando rescue operationbehind enemy lines, except in this instanceit’s behind Hadrian’s Wall.

Sporting a tumbleweed ofkinky blond hair atop his gangly slopeshoulderedframe, breathing through atroutlike open mouth, speaking in a monotoneby turns belligerent and resentful,peering out at the world through halfclosedeyes and an oversized pair of aviatorglasses, he is almost an Expressionistic caricatureof adolescent discomfort. And theunknown actor, Jon Heder, gives not somuch a performance as a mere presentation:here I am, like it or lump it. His unfamiliarity(is he really like that?) harmonizesbeautifully with his many discomforts: hisclumsiness with the opposite sex (“I seeyou’re drinking one-percent. Is that ’causeyou think you’re fat?”), his mortificationover his closest relatives (an older brotherinvolved in an Internet courtship, an unclepathologically nostalgic for his footballingheyday in the Eighties: “It’s a time machine,Napoleon. We bought it on-line”), hisbond of alienation with the only Latino inhis class, his favorite pastime of solo tetherball.The clever credits sequence, composedof unappetizing plates of food andassorted other mundanities (a Chapstick, alibrary check-out card, and so on), correctlyforecasts the relentless quirkiness ofthe film, a feel-odd comedy that takes ahard turn at the end toward a feel-goodcomedy (not without adequate preparation:a closed-door practice session in which thehero “gets his groove on” with a dance-instructionvideo found at a thrift shop). Theequally unknown director, Jared Hess,whom we might like to imagine got toknow his star by way of alphabetical seatingin Study Hall, would appear to have undergonesome sort of artistic epiphany whilewatching a Wes Anderson film: flat,squared-up images, dealt out in a kind ofhammer-and-anvil rhythm. The consistencyof it all, not just the rhythm but thetone, is ultimately persuasive. The viewer isgiven plenty of time to attune, to adjust, toacclimate. He is given no special inducement.Jon Gries, Aaron Ruell, EfrenRamirez, Tina Majorino. 2004.★★ (HILLCREST CINEMAS; LA JOLLA 12)The Notebook — Young love relived inthe old folks’ home: James Garner, everyday, reads to a memory-impaired GenaRowlands the story of a different-worldsromance (“It was an improbable romance.He was a country boy, she was from thecity”), the story — you guessed it — oftheir own romance in the Forties, in thehopes of jogging her memory.

hero’s triumphant “I’m back!” will betransposed, through an undignified crashlanding, to “My back!” In due time, muchis revealed — which is to say Spider-Man’strue identity is much revealed — and realprogress is made along the storyline, althoughthe last-minute head start on thenext sequel feels more tiresome than theentire two hours. Tobey Maguire, morehesitant than Hamlet, more demure thanDumbo, makes the most of the PeterParker alter ego, but must defer to a computer-generateddouble for the superherobits. Kirsten “Dimples” Dunst and James“Dean” Franco are back on hand as well,and weigh little in the balance. The big difference,the big improvement, is in the newvillain embodied by Alfred Molina. In placeof Willem Dafoe’s Green Goblin, the Batman-typeantagonist of the first installment,Molina delivers a robust Dr. Octavius,alias Dr. Octopus, or Doc Ock forshort, not really a bad guy at all, but an altruisticscientist whose experiments in fusiongo horribly awry, leaving him fused tofour metallic robot arms, or tentacles, witha mind of their own. Now more spiderythan Spidey, he turns into a monster in thetradition — the species — of such sciencefictiondeformities of the Fifties as TheAmazing Colossal Man and The Fly. Perhaps,however, the simplest way to appraisethe overall level of improvement would beto say that, this time, the irascible newspapereditor of J.K. Simmons (“I don’t payyou to be a sensitive artiste!”) does not stealthe whole show. Only his own scenes. 2004.★★ (CARMEL MOUNTAIN; CHULA VISTA 10; CIN-ERAMA 6; DEL MAR HIGHLANDS 8; ENCINITAS 8;FASHION VALLEY 18; GALAXY 6; GROSSMONTCENTER; GROSSMONT TROLLEY; HAZARD CEN-TER 7; HORTON PLAZA 14; LA COSTA 6;LA JOLLA 12; MIRA MESA 18; MISSION MARKET-PLACE 13; MISSION VALLEY 20; OCEANSIDE 16;PALM PROMENADE 24; PARKWAY PLAZA 18;POWAY 10; RANCHO DEL REY 16; RANCHO SANDIEGO 15; SAN MARCOS 18; SANTEE DRIVE IN;SOUTH BAY DRIVE IN; TOWN SQUARE 14; VISTAVILLAGE)The Stepford Wives — A warm-up ofIra Levin’s scare story about the robotspouses who fulfill the domestic ideals ofMadison Avenue in the Fifties.

Even apart from all that, itseems a serious miscalculation to rewritethe Nancy Drew heroine — the womancharged with sniffing out the dastardlyscheme — as a type-A career woman, acard-carrying rabid bitch, a cold-bloodedprofit-motivated head of a schlocky TVnetwork, in fact a Faye Dunaway in Network,who starts out the movie as alreadyless than human. (Are we meant to root forher robotization?) It seems a further miscalculationto divulge the plot secrets soearly, to dispense with things like crescendoingsuspense and dramatic climaxes, andsimply to race along (the running timebarely reaches an hour and a half) as if weall know where we’re headed from the outset.But that’s just to say that the whole ideaof a comic remake in the first place was amiscalculation.

English fluctuates widely depending uponwhere the joke lies. Even by Spielberg’sstandards, the treacle runs high, but the unwrittenproscriptions against “plotspoilers” — e.g., the contents of thePlanter’s Peanuts tin that the foreigner carrieswith him, the deathbed promise to hisfather, the entire purpose of his visit to theStates, the eventual fulfillment of it — willallow the reviewer to keep his head abovethe molasses. Stanley Tucci, CatherineZeta-Jones, Chi McBride, <strong>Diego</strong> Luna.2004.● (CARMEL MOUNTAIN; ENCINITAS 8; FASHIONVALLEY 18; GALAXY 6; GROSSMONT CENTER;HORTON PLAZA 14; LA JOLLA 12; MIRA MESA 18;MISSION VALLEY 20; OCEANSIDE 16; PALMPROMENADE 24; PARKWAY PLAZA 18;POWAY 10; RANCHO DEL REY 16; RANCHO SANDIEGO 15; SAN MARCOS 18; TOWN SQUARE 14;VISTA VILLAGE)Troy — Big (two hours, forty minutes) oldfashioned(not to say ancient) sword-andsandalepic, complete with the traditionalCast of Thousands (however many of themmay nowadays be computer-generated) andthe mandatory Wooden Horse, plausible inits physical appearance if implausible in itsplacement at the foot of a downslopingsandy beach several miles from the citywalls (why bother to lug it inside?). In basicoutline a fairly straightforward illustrationof events in The Iliad, or at any rate eventson the human plane, it is all apt to seemterribly familiar to anyone who made ahabit of actually reading his assigned readingin high school, regardless how long ago.Which is not to say it is all apt to seem terriblyinteresting. The casting of the movie,to begin with, can be said to be a little offwhen Achilles and Briseis (Brad Pitt andRose Byrne) look prettier than Paris andHelen (Orlando Bloom and Diane Kruger,a Teutonic Ursula Andress type). Nor is itgood storytelling to balance the legendarylove that brought down an empire, andeven to overbalance it, with a rival lovewhose only purpose is to flatter the movie’sstar. And not even his preludial one-on-oneduel against a bald, multi-scarred, mountainousGoliath, and his zigzagging jumpand-stabmaneuver in slow-motion, canconvince us of Pitt’s claim as the GreatestLiving Warrior. A larger problem, though,seems to have to do with the aforementionedfamiliarity: the plainness, the bareness,the rudimentariness of the basic myth.Myth demands a bit of dressing-up if itwants to continue to turn heads in themodern world. (See what the Coen brothersdid with The Odyssey in O Brother, WhereArt Thou?) And it’s not enough simply toinstill the characters with a self-conscious,an unbecoming, an almost obnoxious certaintyas to their own immortality and theirplace in history: “This war will never be forgotten,nor will the heroes who fight in it.”They’re right about that, but it’s not forthem to say.

OFF THE CUFF by Cruz MedinaDo you believe in karma?JenniferBank TellerCollege Areaes. At my job, I once made theYmistake of giving a business $120extra. I was honest with my supervisorand told him that I made amistake. When the person returnedwith the extra money, I wasn’t penalized.Even though I had done somethingwrong to the bank, the factthat I came clean with it made theexperience less difficult. If you admityour wrongdoings, it won’t cancel outthe bad karma, but it makes the retributionless severe.Cathy De la RosaRetailFresnohaven’t seen karma come back atIme yet. I believe in karma becauseback in high school I slept with oneof my best friends’ boyfriend. The sexwas horrible, and I might add thathe wasn’t very well endowed. I knowone of these days karma will comeback to haunt me; maybe one of myfriends will have sex with my husband.My friend never found out, but Idon’t see her much anymore so I’vepretty much forgotten about it.Besides that, I don’t really thinkthere’s that much karma going on inmy life.Christina CorrolaSecretaryEl Centrothink that you have to do goodI because your deeds will impact youlater.… As you get older, you learnthat bad things happen even with thebest intentions. There’s that old saying,“The path to hell is paved withgood intentions.” I like to think ofmyself as a good Catholic girl, so it’shard for me to look at things interms of negative and positive energy.Aaron LaceyRetailNorth Parkfeel that as I’ve gotten older, myIbeliefs in Eastern religion haveincreased. It seems like this generationhas broken away from our moretraditional Western beliefs. It’s asthough people couldn’t find theanswers that they wanted from Westernreligion, so they turn to Easternideas. Most of my friends subscribeto a similar mixed-belief system, andI even noticed that people who mightnot have seemed taken in by ideas likekarma have begun to accept them. Asa kid, my mother would have neverused the word karma. In recent years,I’ll catch her using karma to explaina situation.Craig GuntherStudentPacific Beaches. I believe that you make yourYown karma. If you’re a bad personwho’s doing bad things, of courseit’s going to come back to you becausethose are the kinds of people andsituations that you put yourself in.The only thing you can really do istry and be a good person. I haven’treally discussed it with my friends,but I’d imagine that everyone I knowwould agree that karma exists. It’s oneof those things that you becomeaware of as you grow older and moreaware of yourself and others aroundyou.GiovanniComputer TechnicianBelgiumot at all. I don’t think that INknow enough about karma to saywhether or not I believe in it. I don’tthink it’s necessary for my life that Ibelieve in karma. When I was younger,I tended to be more religious. I wentto a Christian church, but it becameless important to me as I becameolder. The idea of karma doesn’t reallydo anything for me. I have visitedHindu churches and it was interestingfor me to learn about their religion,but I had no desire to practice it.POINT LOMA. $600 plus deposit and utilities.Share 4 bedroom, 2 bath spacioushouse.

Morena Blvd.news of the WeiRDby Chuck Shepherd© 2004LEAD STORY— Canadian researchers writing in the journalNeurology in June reported that 18 of 122 dogsbelonging to epileptic children were able to sense,minutes ahead of time, when a child was aboutto have a seizure, and about 30 others showed uniquereactions to a seizure event (including in somecases trying to protect the child from danger).Also in June, researchers at Germany’s MaxPlanck Institute reported that Rico, a border colliethey have studied for several years, can distinguishby name more than 200 objects and caneven figure out the names of unfamiliar objectsassociated with familiar ones (attributed, as inthe epilepsy cases, to the dog’s high sensitivity tosight, sound, and motion).Fetishes on Parade— Ken James, 64, died in February when he felloff a stolen bicycle in Melbourne, Australia, andhit his head. Police later found 435 bicycles andhundreds of parts in his home, stacked to theceiling in every room (only a few of the bikeswere legitimately acquired). ... In May, a courtin York, England, banned Norman Hutchins,53, from all National Health Service hospitalsand doctors’ offices, based on 40 complaintssince January of his attempting to grab surgicalgowns and masks for his collection. He wasdescribed by his lawyer as “not a well man.”Leading Economic Indicators— In May, the Washington Times profiled Markand Lorraine Moore’s growing business sellingbird diapers at $20 to $26 (Lycra suits with strapsthat fit around the wings, with a Velcro flap inback, with pads that must be changed every sixhours, which allow birds to roam the house withoutsoiling the furniture). ... Frank Morosky ofCedar Rapids, Iowa, has introduced charcoallineddiapers, at $20 to $50, designed to reducethe odor of dogs’ flatulence. A Cedar Rapids veterinariansaid he didn’t think the diapers wouldsell because so many owners revel in their dog’sflatulence as a way of distracting attention fromtheir own.— MCI Inc., in bankruptcy protection and planningto lay off 12,000 workers this year, revealedto its shareholders in May that it had dismissedits president, Richard R. Roscitt. Though heworked for the company for only seven months,according to Roscitt’s contract, MCI had to pay himseverance of $8.1 million, plus assorted benefits.— The New York Times reported in June that overworkedCatholic clergy in the U.S., Canada, andEurope are outsourcing certain ritual prayerrequests from their parishioners over to Catholicclergy in India. Priests said such a practice is notnew, but that a priest shortage might have causeda bump in numbers. Indian priests said the requestsare typically accompanied by $5 to $10 (muchmore than they are offered for domestic prayers).— Two designers from India’s National Instituteof Fashion Technology in Calcutta havebegun to offer a women’s cotton jacket that containsa mild electrical charge to help protect themfrom molesters and muggers. A nine-volt batteryin the waistband connects to a switch and wiresrun through the cloth. The domestic price, accordingto a May Indo-Asian News Service story, is855 rupees (about $20).The Continuing Crisis— After 13 years in prison and 5 more detainedas a “violent sexual predator,” James Rodriguez,43, realized last year that he would have to startlying and “confess” to molesting those two boysin the 1980s and seek “rehabilitation.” Otherwise,California’s Atascadero State Hospital wouldnever release him. He told an Associated Pressreporter that he sought advice from the hospital’spedophiles on what to say and how to act,and he finally convinced doctors that he wasremorseful for his “attraction to kids.” Then, ashe was set for a hearing in April, his two “victims”finally recanted, telling officials that they hadmade up the whole thing.— Scottish Gas Corp. headquarters in Edinburghdrew stares earlier this year when it filledits landscape with rows of square trees whosebranches will, in 15 years or so, form the shapeof green cubes resting on the trees’ trunks. Rightnow, each tree resembles a bank of lights on a poleat a ball park, with five rows of branches verticallyflat. As the branches grow, they will bebraced horizontally and vertically so as to expandsymmetrically in three dimensions (“pleaching”)until the cube shape is obtained.Least Competent Criminals— Andre Lamar Henderson, 30, was arrestedafter allegedly robbing a Madison Bank branchin Norristown, Pa., in June and coming awaywith $50. His holdup note had demanded “all yourhundreds and fifties” and, as the teller later said,there was lots of money in the drawer but, unfortunatelyfor Henderson, no hundreds and onlyone fifty. ... Knute Falk, 54, allegedly robbed a Bankof America in Beaverton, Ore., in June but wasarrested when his getaway was delayed. He haddemanded a bank customer’s car keys, walked out,then returned after a minute or two, with his maskoff, to ask the customer which key opens the door.Unclear on the Concept— George Stanichuk, trying to convince a BostonHerald reporter in March of his innocence inhis girlfriend’s disappearance, insisted that thewoman’s having previously gotten a restrainingorder against him was not telltale evidence. Infact, he said, “Every girl I’ve gone out with hasput a restraining order against me.” ... In NewPort Richey, Fla., in February, Robert ScottSchwartz, representing himself in a domesticviolence hearing, admitted that he had beat hisgirlfriend for “a few minutes,” slammed her headinto the stove, pulled her hair, and stuck histhumbs into her eye sockets, but nonethelessturned to her in the courtroom and said, “I’mwilling to overlook a lot of things if you can justget along with me.”Those Who Can’t Do, Teach— In Albany, Ga., high school English teacherCarla Murray, 32, resigned after officials founda poem she had allegedly written to one of herstudents (among other notes that indicated anaffair between the two). The poem: “The smellof your cologne mixed w/ sweat / The soundsyou make while (omitted in the Associated Pressstory) / The touch of your hands / There’s more,but I won’t embarrass myself by mentioningthem.”More Things to Worry About— (1) Anti-smoking crusader Zhang Yue, 44,who has worked in 60 Chinese cities, arrived inHong Kong in May to showcase his unique formof encouragement: He walks up to smokers onthe street and yanks the cigarettes out of theirmouths. (2) In May in West Greenwich, R.I.,Jeffrey A. Stevens, 39, and two passengers werearrested after a car chase on Interstate 95 forpossession of a stolen license plate. At one pointin the chase, according to police, one passengerpulled down the back seat, crawled into thetrunk, and when Stevens popped it open, reachedup and, at 60 mph, unfastened the incriminatingplate (which Stevens later tried to discard alongthe road).Send your Weird News to Chuck Shepherd, <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong><strong>Reader</strong>, P.O.

DRIVEN by KEN KUHLKENFamily Wheels“Before I was married,” says CharlesMunger, “I got a Mazda pickup andput in air suspension and whatnot,made it into a convertible. Then wehad our baby, and I figured the Mazdawasn’t going to be safe enough forher.“A few months ago, on I-8 goingdown toward the desert, we saw awreck. This Toyota Tacoma had apparentlyflipped a couple times. Thewhole front end was smashed in, likeit was made of paper. The two ladiesinside were dead. I pictured my wifeand baby in the Mazda, and I didn’twant to deal with that anymore. So Ibought this Suburban.“In the beginning I planned todo kind of the same thing as I had tothe Mazda, with air suspension, 20-inch rims. But then I bought a threewheelerand my wife Olivia bought herbike, and the air suspension, the loweredthing, and the 20-inch rims; allthat wasn’t practical for the desertscene.“I was going to leave it twowheeldrive, just do a three-inch liftin the front and back. Keeping it twowheeldrive would save money and all.So I bought this kit from Aim Industries.They claimed it was for a threequarter-ton,two-wheel-drive Chevytruck or Suburban.“But when I get it home, mybuddy and I take the front end apartand put the new A-arms on there, andthe cross shaft won’t fit. So I talk totheir technician. He says, ‘Oh, well,that’s kind of weird. It should fit.’“But I had to try to convert mythree-quarter-ton to a half-ton to gettheir kit to work, and when I finallygot it together, the wheels came out,like, pigeon-toed.“I tried to get my money back,but Aim Industries wasn’t going for it.They cost me almost a thousand bucksfor nothing. So I decided to make theSuburban a four-by-four.“If you want the four-by-four,you need to put on a straight frontaxle and a transfer case. You’re pullingout the whole front end, the A-arms,control arms, and all, and thenputting in the straight axle with aleaf-spring suspension. You need toweld the mounts and everything. It’s alot of work.“I do websites for some car clubsand also for Tim at TNT Customs up inFresno. I’m going to take the Suburbanup there, and he’s going to takeout the whole front end, put thestraight axle in, and put an air tankand compressor on it, so in the desertwhen we take air out of the tires toget better traction, all we have to dois hook up the hose and pump thetires up. And I’ll get him to put awinch on the front, so we can pull outwhoever gets stuck.■■■■■■■■■OWNER: CHARLES MUNGERCAR: 1986 CHEVROLET SUBURBANBOUGHT: JUNE 2003 FROM A FRIEND■■■ PRICE: $1900■■■ MILEAGE: 150,000“The straight axle I bought at El Cajon Auto Wrecking.That was $300. The transfer case will run aboutanother $300. I’m going to put 38-inch tires on it, andwider rims. I’ll have about $10,000 in it. Besides, it sucksgas. Last trip to Gordon’s Well, between El Centro andYuma, cost me $150 just for gas. But we’ll feel safergoing out there. And when we get there, we can all sleepin it.”To suggest future “Driven” stories, e-mail ken@kenkuhlken.net.JEEP CHEROKEE, 1996, 4-door, white,needs minor repairs, must sell.

kidstuffBY ANNE ALBRIGHTAThe Big ScreenWe don’t go out to themovies very often. After lastMonday, I remember why. Jackand I have taken our kids to themovies in what Ben calls a “feeater”exactly twice. The firsttime, last summer, we went tosee Finding Nemo. The kidsloved it. Ben, who was two, satthrough most of the movie.Rebecca, Angela, Lucy, andJohn never moved. “The screenis so big,” Lucy whispered tome during the previews.“It’s kinda loud,” Johnnycomplained.Last October, I flew backEast for a family baptism. WhileI was gone, Jack took the kids tosee Brother Bear. When I called thatevening to say good night, Jack toldme, “It went okay. Ben got a littlescared. I took him out to thelobby for a while. Everyone else did great.”Last Monday, I was rinsing the breakfastdishes when Angela and Lucy burst through thefront door. They had been out front playing withour neighbors Morgan and Lindsey. “Guesswhat?” Angela asked me.“What?” I answered as I set a plate drippingwith pancake syrup into the dishwasher.“Morgan and Lindsey are going to see TwoBrothers with their grandma.” Angela looked upat me with pleading eyes. “Can we go?”I thought for a moment. Normally in thesesituations I reflexively say, “No.” The day stretchedbefore me unscheduled. “Sure,” I told Angela.“Let me ask Morgan’s grandma when they’regoing.”Ten minutes later, the kids climbed intoour van. We had added Tyler from next door.Angela rode with Morgan and Lindsey andGrandma Shelley. On the short drive to Edwards<strong>San</strong> Marcos Cinemas, Johnny asked, “Is this themovie about the tigers?”“Yes,” I told him.“Is it scary?” Lucy asked.“I don’t think so. Daddy and I saw a showabout the movie on Animal Planet. It seems likea really neat story about tigers who are brothers.”After we’d bought our tickets and madeour way to our seats, I dumped popcorn fromthe giant tub I’d purchased into smaller boxesI’d grabbed for the kids. “We’ll just share thelemonade from one cup,” I whispered.Everyone weathered the previews. Benseemed a little threatened by the loud jets inThunderbirds. He laughed along with the otherkids at The Incredibles.The movie started. Two adult tigers flirtedand disappeared into an abandoned temple. Thecamera focused on a Buddha’s face. We heardthe sound of tiger copulation. Through the miracleof telescoping, two baby tigers emerged almostimmediately from the same temple.“Oooh,” Ben said to me. “Look at theadorable tigers.”Soon the tigers chased after a threateningweasel. Ben gripped my arm. “Mommy,” heasked, pointing to the movie screen, “is that awindow?”“No, Ben,” I whispered back. “That’s justlike a television, only bigger. The tigers aren’t reallythere. It’s just a moving picture of the tigers.”Ben began to cry. “I’m scared, Mommy.I’m scared of the weasel. Where’s the door? Ican’t see the door. I want to go out, Mommy.”On the screen, the tigers played with theweasel.“You can sit in my lap,” I told Ben.“No, Mommy,” Ben said and cried harder.“I want to go out.”I leaned over Ben and whispered to Lucy,“I need to take Ben out. You and Johnny and Angelacan stay with Grandma Shelley.”“Okay, Mommy,” Lucy answered.Ben and I navigated the dark stairway andwalked up the long ramp to the lobby. “Thatwas scary,” Ben said as we wandered aroundlooking at movie posters. “I didn’t like that movie.I want to go home.”“Sorry, buddy. We need to wait until themovie’s over so we can take the rest of the guyshome.”“But that’s too long,” Ben whined.“Oh, well.”After half an hour, Ben said, “I want mylemonade. I guess we can go back into the movie.”As we felt our way back up the stairs, I heardloud sniffling in the dark. When Ben and I satdown, tears streamed down Lucy’s face. “What’swrong, sweetie?” I asked her. “Was there a scarypart?”“No,” she said. “A really sad part.”Johnny left his seat and clambered into mylap. “It’s too sad,” he sobbed into my shoulder.“These aren’t fake tears, Mommy.”“I can see that,” I held Johnny close andtried to wipe away his tears. “But you knowthere’ll be a happy ending.”Johnny snuffed and seemed unconvinced.During the course of the next hour, I leftthe theater with Ben and returned. I couldn’ttalk Ben into going all the way back up to ourseats, so we sat in the first row next to a handicappedspot. Lucy and Johnny came down andjoined us. Ben wandered the bottom three emptyrows. Johnny cried some more. “This time they’retears of happiness,” he told me between sobs.When we emerged into the noonday sun,Johnny’s eyes were bleary. “That was a goodmovie,” Angela said, “but it was sadder than Ithought it would be.”“Kind of like life,” I said. Nobody seemedto hear.100% guarantee.
