KING HOWARD III
The news is out. Our governor — just call him “Howard” — is in reality Howard Brush Dean III, son of a distinguished Wall Street Big Wheel. Ah, empire! Bet you never saw that name on the Vermont ballot. The news leaked out this week because today, Wednesday, at precisely 4:00 p.m., HoHo will be standing proudly in the balcony of the New York Stock Exchange. The Governor of Vermont has been invited to ring the closing bell for the day’s floor trading — a high honor. And ringing the bell with our governor will be a successful retired stockbroker by the name of Howard Brush Dean, Ho-Ho’s dad. Papa Dean worked on Wall Street for 40 years as a broker, says his governor son, first at Harris Upham, which was taken over by Smith Barney. Then he went to Reynolds Securities, which was swallowed by Dean Witter. The decade-old rumor in Vermont political circles that Papa Dean is the “Dean” in Dean W itter still makes the gossip rounds. It ain’t true. Dean Witter is one guy. Papa Dean is 76 years of age and, as far as we know, he ain’t no Democrat. The Gov, who says he’s the first Democrat in the Dean family tree (now we know why), tells Inside Track his dad retired from the rat race a year ago. This afternoon father and son join hands as the dis tinguished ringers of the closing bell at the biggest gambling casino on Earth. Hear, hear. By the way, Ho-Ho III points out that the closing bell is always televised (CNBC), but he said he’d be surprised if W G O P ... sorry, W CAX-TV... carried it on the news. We always knew Vermont’s governor had Wall Street blood lines, but Ho-Ho’s always kept the personal stuff under wraps. His roots and private school upbringing were always camou flaged by the physician mys tique. The world of “calls” and “puts” was replaced with house calls and Dr. Dynasaur. But don’t think those stockbroker genes haven’t helped shape Gov. Dean the politician. Vermont’s state budget is in the black today and no one’s more of a tightwad on state spending than King Howard III. Ho-Ho’s got a very busy day planned for the Big Apple. He’ll be the keynote speaker at a lun cheon at The Plaza for Harbor, a N.Y.C. social service agency for kids. The Gov’s late brother, Charlie Dean, was once a counselor there. After lunch, it’s down to lower Manhattan to court a crop of financial services firms into mov ing their operations north into the Green Mountains. Last year, Howard III got a bill through the legislature that dangles a 75 percent tax credit to financial sector companies who head for our mountains. Since July 1, says Rob Miller, deputy commish of economic development, 50 new jobs have sprouted here as a result. Hey, quality of life and all, ya’ know. And a state income tax that’s still user-friendly to the stock broker set, thanks to Howard Brush Dean III. Creamcheese Alert! — Republican Susan Sweetser, reborn and on the road to rehabilitat ing her image, continues to swing for the seats in her VPR commentaries. In her latest diatribe on education funding reform, Susie Creamcheese gets out the shovel, and she ain’t shoveling pearls of wisdom. Sweetser rails against instituting any tax increases to offset the coming cut in local property taxes.

is intellectually dishonest. Money does not grow on maple trees. The Sweetser solution? “Yes, we must drastically decrease the fund ing disparity between rich and poor towns, but do it by increasing funding in the state’s general fund budget to property-poor towns. Cut the budget in other places to support increased funding.” Wow! Unfortunately, Ms. Creamcheese, a former state senator who served on the Appropriations Committee, doesn’t even give one suggestion on which program to cut. She knows better. That, folks, is called “grandstanding.” Missing No More! — It only took the state’s largest newspaper five weeks to find the federal I courthouse in Burlington. The trial of Billy Greer and Stephen Hutchins, et ah, has been the talk of the town for weeks. The big ques tion around Burlap was, “Why is The Burlington Free Press ignoring it?” Even the Rutland Herald beat the Freeps to the punch with a front page story on the trial by John Dillon a week ago Sunday. But since last Wednesday the Free Press star cops reporter, Mike Donoghue, has been a daily communicant. The point man for the government on this baby is David Kirby, like the defendants a member of the baby-boom generation. But Kirby chose a very different career path. He’s a I graduate of Northwestern Law School in Chicago then went on to clerk for Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens. Kirby started his career as a federal prosecutor in the Big Apple. Since 1989 he’s been chief of the criminal division in Vermont. But as far as the Greer case goes, Kirby’s the “acting U.S. Attorney,” because U.S. Attorney Charlie Tetzlaff has taken himself out of the loop on this one. Charlie won’t specify why, but suffice it to say that, prior to his appointment as Vermont’s top federal cop, Mr. Tetzlaff did a lot of defense ■ ■ work. Word is his staff gave him I a royal ribbing at the Christmas I Party over his soft line on marijuana prosecutions. I M Kirby, though, wasn’t originally the lead prosecutor on this case. Assistant U.S. Attorney | ^ Tom Anderson was. But Anderson bailed out in January. He took a job in the private sec tor at the same law firm that represented Billy’s younger brother Rick Greer — Sheehy Brue Gray and Furlong. (Ricky’s currently serving six months for his role in smuggling cash across the border into Canada.) While Kirby gets high marks for intellect, he’s no whiz in the courtroom. David’s soft-spo ken and laid-back. Polite to a fault. No passion, unlike some of the other righteous bulldogs in the federal stable. For more on the trial, see “Going Dutch” on page 13. Correction — Sorry, but Jack Long did not get 19 percent of the vote in November’s congres sional race as you read here last week. How does 9.3 percent sound? Good. Mr. Longshot’s derogatory comments about the Democratic Party did not come as a sur prise to everyone. In fact, there had been talk a few months back of Jack officially switching parties and joining the ranks of the Republican Party. The idea was nixed, we’re told, for two reasons. First, such a switcheroo might prompt the Dean administration to let out more details on Jack’s departure from the environmental agency a few years back. Second, as you may recall, Mr. Long had been accused by the DNC of being a Republican plant from the get-go. □

SEVEN DAYS.
ALL ABOUT 'ELLEN'
Dear Ms. DeGeneres, Well, now, that sounds pretty stupid! May I call you Ellen? Its no use standing on ceremony at a time like this, when the whole country is waiting for you to come out of the closet and most of my friends can’t make up their minds what to wear to the “Ellen” party tonight. There are eight parties that I know of right here in the Queen City, and probably a lot more, if you add up all the lesbians, who never invite me to theirs. If I know America, Ellen, there isn’t going to be another Ellen when all this is over. So calling you “Ms. DeGeneres” just sounds dumb, don’t you think? Mind you, in my day it wasn’t so easy to get cozy with the stars. It certainly was not. Sure, there were lots of funny ladies on television who were called by their first names — “Lucy,” “Grade,” “Katy,” and so forth. But the actresses who played them weren’t the same as the parts. We all knew this, Ellen. We really did. We knew that Lucille Ball wasn’t really Lucy Ricardo, and that Ann Sothern wasn’t really a secretary, and that Gracie Allen probably hadn’t risen to the top of the heap in Hollywood by sewing buttons onto George Burns’ shirt-tails so that if he lost them, no one would notice. You’ve got to believe me, Ellen — we knew the difference. Every so often, it’s true, Miss Ball or Miss Allen or Miss Sothern would open the doors of her home in Beverly Hills to show 1 m glad that you re us how natural she was, how she liked to cook and play a lesbian in real bridge and string popcorn on life, and I don t say the tree with her kids just like you and me, but that was a big that about every load of malarkey, and we knew bodyy Elleny not by that, too. It was all part of the act. These were the stars, Ellen, a long shot. But I is what I’m saying. They were ju st couldn't agree pretending. That’s what they got paid to do. TV with Barbara It’s what you’re paid to do, Walters when she too, Ellen, believe it or not, which is why I’m writing you said that you were now. I’m a little suspicious utewwibwy about your motives in this outof-the-closet thing. I’m just a sincewe’\ and that wee bit doubtful, Ellen, that you were taking you and that “Ellen” have as much in common as everyone “such a big wisk” thinks. by tewwing the Don’t get me wrong. There’s no one happier than I am that twuth. we’re going to have “a major gay character on a TV sitcom,” as the media puts it, and I’m sure all the commentators and “lesbigay” spokespersons are absolutely right when they say it’s a milestone, a watershed, “a proud day,” and so forth. I am proud, Ellen, really I am. I’ll be watching the show like everybody else, and because I’m really such a big softie — I’m ruled by my heart, Ellen, not by my head — I’ll probably have a tear in my eye when you actually say the word, or do the deed, or whatever it is you’re finally getting around to doing after such a long time. Well, maybe tears is stretching it. I’ll be watching the show with my friend Josh Noble, who’s asked me to tell you that he thinks you should rename it Leave It For Beaver. You can see what I have to put up with. Jokes, Ellen. Jokes all the time. But you’re a comedian, right? This is supposed to be funny. And it is funny, Ellen, really it is. You know as well as I do that Hollywood is crawling with lesbians already, and gay men, too, and “bisexuals,” if they want to call themselves that. (Though just between you and me, Ellen — and keep this under your hat, because I’m in enough trouble as it is — I don’t believe in bisexuals. I really don’t. I’m not talking about what people have done or can do or might do. I’m talking about what they want to do. I’m talking about a preference, Ellen. And everybody knows what theirs really is, that’s what I think. But I digress.) Its like Elizabeth Taylor says, Ellen, “If it weren’t for the homosexuals there wouldn’t be any Hollywood.” Far be it from me to improve on Miss Taylor, but let’s face it: If your coming out of the closet wasn’t guaranteed to send your ratings straight through the roof and make a bundle for the network and the C o n tin u ed on page 1 4

Asked about his dance philosophy, Morris told a crowd of Belgian critics, “I make it and you watch it — end of philosophy.” Morris is still uniquely down to earth — a French journalist once described him as “part diva, part truck driver.” At 40, though, he is no longer the “ enfant terrible of mod e rn dance,” but the “older, wiser bad boy,” as The New York Times noted in a recent headline.

Clubbers know that urbanoriented music is far from new in Burlington’s DJ scene — check out DJ Frostee’s sampleheavy “Getfunkybattleboy,” and the aptly named “Beautiful” by the inim itable Craig Mitchell. Laid-back rap from NCC, accompanied only by a rhythm track and flutish keyboard, sounds sleepy compared to the twin rapper lovegroove of Da Numbskullz (guess who from Belizbeha), backed by Dave Grippo’s siz zling sax, which could make stiff old white men twitch.

Dutch mob boss Johann Verhoek may be target ofU .S. authorities in the Billy Greer
ermont’s biggest drug trial in history took to the high seas this week with the testimony of a 53-year-old Dutchman disguised in a wig and fake moustache. Adriaan Karman, escorted by U.S. marshals and Dutch policemen in plain clothes, testified through an interpreter about his acquaintance with Vermonters Billy Greer and Stephen Hutchins, whom he claimed he first met in Holland in 1989. The name of the game was hashish smuggling, and the destination was Canada. Karman first told Dutch authorities and Special Agent Rick Carter of the DEA in 1996 that he had seen Greer and Hutchins in Amsterdam in the summer of 1989. They were there, he said, to hone their skills at managing the off-loading at sea of two huge, multi-ton hashish ship ments. Karman testified Monday, however, that he had been “mistaken” about seeing Hutchins in Holland. The 1989 shipment into Canada of 30 tons of hashish went smoothly. The 1990 shipment was canceled because of Operation Desert Storm — too many naval vessels in the Indian Ocean, where the hash was on-loaded from Pakistani drug traffick ers. The 1991 off-loading 400 miles north of Quebec City at the mouth of the St. Lawrence River went awry. The blue barrels broke apart, leading to the arrest and con viction in Canada of four of the five defen d a n t on trial today in Burlington’s federal * courtroom. So fan six Vermonters who worked those jobs have testified at the trial as government informants in exchange for leniency from the U.S. Attorney’s office for the District of Vermont. Adriaan Karman’s testimony is particu larly vital to the U.S. government. It pro vides the vital link between the Vermonters in charge of the Canadian off-loading and Johann Verhoek, the man Dutch authori ties say is the John Gotti-style head of a major international crime syndicate based in Amsterdam called “Octopus.” In an

STILL SMILING Alleged drug kingpin Stephen Hutchins and his attorney, Mark Kaplan, outside U S. District Court Friday. Amsterdam courtroom last December, Verhoek was sentenced to six years in prison on drug-smuggling charges — the maximum sentence for the offense. That is hardly a stiff sentence by U.S. standards. According to sources, however, law enforcement officials in the United States and Holland are teaming up in hopes of putting Verhoek behind bars for life. To accomplish that goal, Verhoek will have to be tried under U.S law, where drug-trade penalties are much more severe. According to Charles Groenhuijsen, the Washington, D.C.-based correspon dent for Dutch Public Television who was in Burlington last week, the Dutch press has already reported that U.S. government prosecutors intend to seek the extradition of Verhoek from Holland to stand trial in the United States. To accomplish that, they must find evi dence of a U.S. connection that will enable authorities to indict and extradict Verhoek to the United States. It now appears that Vermonters Greer and Hutchins are that connection. According to Groenhuijsen, “There was this huge drug trial in Holland against Mr. Verhoek, also called the “Hakkelar,” which
means the “stutterer,” and one of the strik ing things in this trial was the cooperation between key witnesses and Dutch law enforcement and Dutch courts. And now that the Americans are cooperating with the Dutch to get [Karman] over here — it’s quite extraordinary by Dutch standards.” Karman was arrested by French police in 1992 on charges of smuggling hashish into France. For some unexplained reason, sources say, Karman was set up by Verhoek. Once arrested, Karman cooperated with French as well as Dutch authorities. He tes tified in a Burlington courtroom last week he was afraid Verhoek would have him killed, and said he would give one statement to Dutch prosecutors if the Verhoek-provided lawyer was present, but a vastly dif ferent statement after the lawyer departed. In fact, the Dutch Witness Protection Program was created to keep Adriaan Karman alive — its existence is still contro versial in Holland. The task for the U.S. government is to show that Verhoek was a co-conspirator of the Vermonters in the Greer/Hutchins criminal enterprise. They will have to show Continued on page 28

I’m glad that you’re a les bian in real life, and I don’t say that about everybody, Ellen, not by a long shot. I’m thrilled that you’ve come to terms with your sexual identity and that you’re no longer living a'lie. But 1 just couldnt agree with Barbara Walters the other night on “20/20” when she said that you were “tewwibwy sincewe,” and that you were taking “such a big wisk” by tewwing the twuth. Forgive me, Ellen, but I just don’t buy it. W hat kind of a “wisk” is it for an established star, with a huge following and pots of money, to say she’s a lesbian ontyafter x\\e network tells her its OK, when her series is already yesterday’s news and she doesn’t even have a baby to support? Wouldn’t it have been more of a “wisk,” Ellen, to have come out of the closet without the network’s permission? To have “told the twuth” without taking eight months to think it over and check the numbers and test the reaction and make sure the money boys still love you? Frankly, Ellen, Im tired of hearing how “courageous” you’ve been, and your network, too. Think about it, Ellen. T his,

Continued from page 7 performance. Critics raved, not just because the program was so diverse — the subject matter ranged from the Roman Catholic Mass to tele vision wrestling. But because Morris gave them something they had not seen in a long time. Acocella writes, “The dances were heroic, like Jos6 Limon. They were exalted, like Doris Humphrey. Like Martha Graham, they por trayed lonely inner states. Like Ruth St. Denis and Ted Shawn, they drew on “exotic” styles to give beauty and strangeness to the inner voy age. .. And by virtue of new steps, new relations of steps to music and of narrative to dance, it all looked new.” A lot of it was — and is. You would never catch Martha Graham playing Cupid quite the feY way Morris does in “The Spell.” The romantic “Love Song Waltzes” may be Balanchinelike, except there is little in the way of traditional hetero sexual coupling.

One reporter described him as “Fred and Ginger dancing in the same body.” If you don’t appreciate the spatial counterpoint, or the tribal metaphors, you can always sit back and listen to music. No other modern choreographer gives it more attention than Morris. That musical talent is what first intrigued Gerald Mortier — the adventurous director of the Theater de la Monnaie who invited Morris and his company to take up residency in the Brussels opera house. Morris accepted, in large part because of the opportunity to work with a live orchestra. But he immediately got off on the wrong foot with the

Belgian press — insulting his predecessor, Maurice Bejart^ and Belgium’s only other bigname dancemaker, Anne Teresa de Keersmaeker. Or as Morris called her, “Anne Teresa de Tearjerker.” Things went from bad to worse when he bared all in “Striptease,” and the local press called for his ouster. Even the com munist paper was shocked. “Obviously,” wrote the critic for Drapeau Rouge, “Mark Morris’s choreographic inspiration is to be found up his butt — which, incidentally, is not worth going far to see.” Morris left Brussels behind, but brought back his “Hard Nut” and the very cost ly notion that good dance must have live music. Having real musicians in the pit is “time-consuming and a pain in the ass,” he says, but it also makes the performance more satisfying. “It is a dance show and a music show,” he says. “It lasts a certain amount of time, and then it’s over. It won’t happen again like that — ever.’n

Federal housing cutbacks threaten a one-of-a-kind co-op in Burlington Bv Kevin J. Kelley
egory in which to place such a living arrangement, potential funders have defined it in familiar terms. “They’ve told us that student cooperatives are not high on their list of priori ties,” says Johnson, who works for a local social service organi zation. Due to the absence of such seed funding, the co-op’s mem bers can’t afford to refinance the house’s market-rate mortgage from Key Bank. Unless a solu tion is found in the next few months, the students and other residents will have to leave their home, which has been run as a cooperative since 1992. The property is likely to remain in the nonprofit domain, however. Two Burlington-based agencies expect to receive a $300,000 federal grant that will enable them to operate 204 Pearl Street as a 10-unit group home for youth deemed “at risk.” The current residents are, meanwhile, continuing their

The centu ry-old Victorian near the corner of South Winooski Avenue is part of the Green Mountain Student Cooperative, dedicated in part to housing UVM under grads who don’t fit the stereo type of rich kids lacking social awareness. But 204 Pearl Street proba bly won’t be available much longer as a co-op for mainly low-income, single individuals. The 13 people who live there haven’t been able to obtain aid from any of the state housing agencies that traditionally assist low-income home-buyers. “We’ve run into the issue of this being a unique co-op that’s open to both students and non students,” explains resident Patrick Johnson.

Seeking to mobi lize broad support for their cause, the residents are hop ing to persuade the University of Vermont to pro vide financial backing.. “As a commu nity-based living arrangement that binds UVM with the larger community, we’re providing a unique service to the university’s students,” Johnson argues. So far, however, UVM has been unwilling to lend assistance, on the grounds that the co-op’s membership is not limited to enrolled stu dents.

Indeed. “I know of no other co-op that provides housing for this diverse a group of people,” says Kai Forlie, a co-op man agement consultant for the Burlington Community Land Trust. He also notes that 204 Pearl is the only single-room occupancy co-op in the Burlington area.
Among the oth ers who live there are Tom Azarian, an unemployed 49year-old musician, and Rebecca Haywood, a UVM junior. Azarian says he moved into the co op in 1995 because “it’s one of the low est-priced places to stay in Burlington.” All-inclusive monthly fees range from $235 to $310 per person, and are even cheaper during the summer months. Residents share kitchen facilities and common space in the threestory building, which was pur chased five years ago at an open-market price of about $325,000.

I also like the mix here quite a lot,” adds Haywood, who comes from a single-parent home in Lexington, Massachusetts. “For students,” notes Johnson, “a situation like ours can serve as a surrogate family while they’re at school.” Residents try to run an environmentally conscious household, and many of them work or volunteer at local nonprofit agencies. “O ur phi losophy involves having a pos itive relationship with our neighbors and the City of Burlington,” Johnson says.

Among the larger local co-ops are the recently built Thelma Maple project on Archibald Street and the Flynn Avenue complex in the city’s South End. Besides helping arrange mortgages and obtain start-up funding from federal, state and local sources, Forlie pro vides training in cooperative living skills.

THERE'S A WAY
By David Healv f half the skiers in Vermont up and left, you couldn’t help but notice. But unless it struck you funny to see a car driving-through town carrying sailboards topped with snow, you might not know that many of the area’s windsurfers have headed South — mostly to Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, the windsurfing capital of the East Coast. As skiing is for a larger group of people, windsurfing is an obsession that consumes a small but dedicated slice of Vermont’s population. “For most people I know that are in the sport, it takes over their lives,” admits Phil Mann, owner of the Inland Sea wind surfing shop in Winooski. But unlike finding snow in Vermont, locating the right conditions to propel yourself and a small board across water at up to 40 mph can be diffi cult. Serious windsurfers become serious weather mavens, carry ing radios tuned to the weather channel in their briefcases and skipping out of work whenever the whitecaps on Lake Champlain beckon. And, in an annual rite of spring, the truly
I
devoted make the 800-mile road trip to Cape Hatteras in search of wind and warmer rays. “The Hatteras pilgrimage is like the kick-off to the sea son,” attests Mann, who once spent 14 hours — and $175 in cellular phone charges to the car in front of him — convoy ing south for April sailftig. ** v ^ Once you’re driving down the island’s single main road, or parked in front of the ever-popular Bubba’s Bar-B-Q, you can’t help but notice the Green Mountain license plates stand ing out in sharp contrast to the local white “First in Flight” tags. So strong is the Vermont presence that when a wayward soul from Woodstock knocks on your door and asks, “Is Bernie Sanders here?” you’re not sure if he’s joking. W hat is strange is the sight of so many pale-skinned Vermonters on the beach clad in their first shorts and sandals of the season. Between the blessed warmth and the winds, they nearly forget about home — except when noting on the weather channel that the day’s high for Burlington is a chilly 42 degrees. These travelers take up a new lingo, too: Monday becomes a “4.0 day” and Wednesday a “powered-up 5.5

session” — references to the size of the windsurfing sails used. “I think everybody comes for the same reasons,” says Mike Kerbaugh of Jericho, a veteran of 10 seasons at Hatteras. “One, to get out of that state you’re in,” he says — and the double entendre is intenrional. “I had eight inches o f ' ~" snow on my car when I left home, and I have a garage!”The other reason is, he says, that Cape Hatteras is the perfect place to tune up your technique and equipment for the Vermont sailing season ahead. “Lake Champlain is great sailing, but difficult,” Kerbaugh claims. “Up there you have cold water, it’s over your head in most places, and there can be huge waves.” In contrast, Pamlico Sound, which separates the Outer Banks from the Carolina Coast, has miles of flat and shallow water, inexpensive waterfront rental units com plete with hot tubs, and water temperatures already pushing 60. “I kind of like being in the ‘Lazy-Boy recliner’ sailing,” Kerbaugh adds. The windsurfing scene, which is one part sport and one part Dead show on the beach, is characterized by vans, equip ment and beautiful people

TAURUS (Apr. 20-M ay 20): Here are five visualizations that will prevent you from being a knee-jerk knucklehead this week. Visualization # 1: Imagine using a knife to slice through a gnarled knot that’s too knotty to unravel. Visualization #2: Envision knocking white knights off their high horses. Visualization #3: Think o f how often you find yourself kneeling down in front o f sacred cows, and imagine that maybe it’s time to know more about the knack o f cow tipping.

CANCER (June 21 -July 22): In Old Europe, no holiday was celebrated with more festive abandon than the one that fell in the first few days o f May. Our predecessors cavorted around maypoles in skimpy attire; leaped over bonfires as they called out their secret wishes; tried to bite into doughnuts hanging from tree branches while being tickled by friends; and slipped away into the woods to make love under shady trees. I wish these noble customs had survived, if only for your sake. This is the hottest party time o f the year for you, after all. By my astrological reckoning, you should be in the mood to dance insanely and show off outrageously and use doughnuts creatively in erotic rites o f passage. I strongly recommend that if no one you know is planning a maypole revel this weekend, throw one yourself. LEO

A haunting placeholder painted on the walls among these tombstones indicates the impending death of the remaining children and parents. The only minor flaw in this exhibit is a product of the gallery itself — the large, nearly undefined space fails to capture or project the sense of commu nity that one feels in an early New England graveyard. Shattuck’s patch-words of notable quotes on the subject are evident only as one leaves the exhibit and might easily be overlooked. The artists’ contri butions, however, are profound and well-handled, and it is unfortunate that it will proba bly be seen by relatively few Vermonters. □

Ma y 1 - 7 (Mar. 21-Apr. 19): You know what they say about you behind your back, don’t you? I’ll tell you: “A magician at launching new projects, but a dunce at seeing them through to the end. Enthusiastic in the beginning, but no staying power.” 1 hope this malicious gossip steams you up, Aries. 1 pray that it motivates you to prove those mean-spirited know-nothings wrong. From an astrological perspective, there’s never been a more favorable time for you to pull off a virtuoso display o f stick-to-it-iveness.

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22): For pagans, the midpoint o f spring (which happens this week) is prime time for the most exuberant intimacy o f the year. That’s when they celebrate the fertility festival known as Beltane. “Join together two substances to form a third” during this holiday, advises witchy writer Scott Cunningham.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Visitors to the gnostic shrine I went to last week were required to fast, pray, and shower before they entered into the holy ground. I offer up that image for you to keep in mind during the next few weeks, when all manner o f exotic new influences will be seeking admission to the sacred temple o f your psyche.

They will also have to show that at least some of the hashish shipment Verhoek’s organization shipped to Canada entered the United States.

PREMIUM QUALITY
gain and again throughout the history of civilization, miraculous discoveries and promising innovations have been shanghaied by the forces of darkness and put to work in the service of evil. Roman architects built monumental roadways, and power-crazed emperors used them to subju gate defenseless peoples. When science unlocked the secrets of the atom, rival governments couldn’t apply the discovery to the purposes of war fast enough. In our time, an entire ly new broadcast technology was pioneered: millions of miles of cable stretched under ground from coast to coast, a revolution in the way we think of television. The result? Human beings in the remotest corners of the land are now able, day and night, to view incredibly crappy movies. If you’ve ever subscribed to one of the country’s leading “premium” chan nels, you know what I’m talking about. Now, I’ve always loved movies and, until cable came along, TV really didn’t have a lot to offer in that depart ment. There was “The Late, Late Show” — usually a depressing black-and-white Western, World War II adventure or film noir reject. There were a certain number of pathetic made-for-TV movies (this was pre-irony, so instead of being kitschy or deliciously bad, most were just plain awful). And on Sunday afternoons, if you prayed to the proper gods, you might luck out and catch a classic. Hud, maybe, or a hallway decent exercise in schlock like a Nicholson Poe movie or vintage sci-fi like The Fly. The pickings were slim. So when cable came along, it held tremendous promise. For pennies a day, the history of cinema would be pumped into your living room. The finest films would no longer play hard to get, but come home with you and be at your beck and call 24 hours a day. HBO, Showtime, The Movie Channel, Cinemax. It seemed to good to be true. It was. You think the communist revolution didn’t live up to expectations? Next to the way premium channels worked out, Castro looks like Robin Hood. Instead of nonstop cinematic excellence, we’ve ended up with, for the most part, a dumping ground for the for gettable. The premium services have provided studios with one more venue to help put mar
A
ginal productions into the black. It used to be that the studio behind a box-office flop looked to foreign markets and third-world outlets to mend their bottom line. The end result of the cable revolution is that millions of American fami lies now perform that function. Leonard, Part 6. Iron Eagle. Ladybugs. The Lawnmower Man. This is the Promised Land? The premium channels’ monthly listings read like the inventory of a video store in hell. Sure, there are occasional exceptions. There are signs of intelligent life, for example, in the programming department at The Movie Channel. But who’s minding the store over at Showtime, Cinemax and, the nation’s largest premium ser vice, HBO? Ed Wood? “Our corporate philosophy is to seek out the best enter tainment across the board,” assured HBO Corporate Affairs Director Henry Gomez when I called to ask how on earth movies like these wind up playing for years on cable, long after dying miserable deaths at the box office. “It’s very involved,” replied Gomez. “There are multiple lev els. It depends on what product is out there at a given time and what people want to see.” But who actually deter mined that America wanted to see the Brian Bosworth action picture Back in Business, I wondered, or the Judge Reinhold comedy, Head OfficF. Have most Americans ever even heard of these movies? “Urn, you know, I’ve never been asked these questions before,” Gomez confessed. “Well, we have several evalua tors here who examine the films for talent and quality and then purchase accordingly.” It was worse than I feared. Paid HBO “evaluators” actual ly watch these things — or claim to — before buying them. Now, I could have understood some bean counter buying up piles of cheap crap py movies to save money. But Henry here is telling me that “qualified” individuals screen these duds first. W hat kind of a mind actually watches a dis mal specimen like Tom Arnold’s Big Bully and tells his boss, yup, this is what America is yearning for? The plot thick ens. I just have to talk with one of these arbiters of cable taste — and next time that’s exactly what I’ll do. □ Tube Fed is a monthly col umn on television commentary.

Dear Lola, I always have this tear that God is going to punish me, and I w asn’t even raised Catholic. Cverytime l get ju st a lit tle bit happy, I sense impending doom. Nothing ever really happens, except when I decide not to worry. It’s like I have to be preoccupied in order to stave cfjt disas ter. Lately, I’ve been thinking I should join the clergy to get God on my side tor good. Ot course, then I’d probably go to hell ter being a homosex ual. your thoughts? — Terrorized in Thettcrd Dear Terrorized, you have got to get a hold ct your rational mind, y o u ’re running on emotion and superstition. And that’s what will kill you. The whole concept ot spirituality is supposed to be comforting. The only one punishing you is you. It doesn’t sound like the clergy is your true call ing, ju st some sort of pro tection mechanism. Being gay does not damn you. There is no way to pre pare for all the chal lenges ot lifo — except to go forward with foith in yourselt. With love,
