Here's a toast — to freak illustrator Patrick Dean, whose evil earth-ball graces our cover...
...and Vic Chesnutt. who performs with Lampchop on PBS's "Sessions at West 54th Street" this Saturday, March 6... .
...and as-yet-undiscovered Big-Haired Texas Chicks, who we can assume have the dirt on Governor Bush, thus ensuring us untold
months of irrelevant naughty political talk-show fodder...
...and Celine Dion, for just being, you know, glamorous and whatnot...
...and good ole Nathaniel West, who 60 or 70 years ago, wrote, “It is hard to laugh at the need for beauty and romance, no matter
how tasteless, even horrible, the results of that are. But it is easy to sigh. Few things are sadder than the truly monstrous.” Here's
to us — cheers, friends!
