— Jane Pominville : : ; : Owner, A Child’s Dream • Hinesburg

I would like to respond to Brian Walshs letter in Seven Days [“Weekly Mail,” July 18] entitled “2nd Opinion on the 4th.” My first response was, “Wow! People like this actually exist.” I am sure Mr. Walsh has never met a Socialist state he didn’t like, a Castro he didn’t think needed 40 more years to prove that his vision of utopia is correct, or a grocery store which he didn’t think should be run “for people, not for profit.” Walsh states, “What does the Fourth of July mean to me? It means the perpetuation of the hypocrisy on which this country was founded and which continues to dominate us today.” That just blew me away. Mr. Walsh, if you seem to think the United States of America

Burlington TH O SE F & A W O R D S AGAIN

Being an avid reader of Seven Days and a bit of a “wild card” in my community, I even surprised myself for being disturbed and dis appointed with part of the July 11 issue. On page 8a, in italics, was

the “f ” word. Then, six pages later, in a larger font was the word “ass hole,” referring to the body part. Why not just colon? This publication is free. What message are we sending to the 14year-old that picks it up? Like I said, I love the raunchy side of life; however, I prefer it not to be in our faces. Something perhaps that is harder to find, like in the “cats seeking dogs” section! With our country’s decay of morals, it seems like we should hang on to anything decent. These words printed only seemed to fill a creativity void and to be of shock value. I hope in the future we can preserve a bit of integrity in our little section of the world and avoid such obscenities.

is such a horrible place, then please do all of us a favor and stop your whining and leave. I volunteer to buy you a one-way ticket to the Socialist paradise of your choice. Would you prefer Quebec, Cuba or North Korea? There are so many to choose from nowadays. Mr. Walsh, there is dissent, which I can wholly abide, and then there is idiocy. You, Mr. Walsh, are an idiot, and you are polluting our gene pool. Goodbye.

He relies on public transport and chauf feur-driven cars to get around because he cannot drive. “He does not have a driving license and he never learned to drive,” a Transport Ministry spokesperson acknowledged.

REEL OPPORTUNITIES: The makers of the film Die You Zombie

Bastardsbare not heading to Vermont for the foliage. Middlebury alum Haig Demarjian and cohort Caleb Emerson are seeking actors for what

they describe as a “serial killer super-hero rock ’n’ roll zombie romantic comedy road movie.” Young females, specifically, who are willing to get naked in the Northeast Kingdom for a short shoot in mid-September. Demarjian has already worked with Troma Entertainment, source of the “Toxic Avenger” series and other works of twisted cinema. In the process of scouting locations last month, the horror-flick fan noted an absence of strip joints in Vermont. “Where am I going to find these people?” he wonders aloud. If you think you’ve got what it takes to be a volunteer “hot zombie girl,” you can audition online at zombiebastard. tripod.com. No, it’s not Howard Frank Mosher. But neither is the latest from Barnet filmmaker Jay Craven, who spent the spring in Ohio shooting “a coming-of-age story set in the shadow of Kent State.” Craven is back in the shadow of Camel’s Hump editing The Year That Trembled, based on the novel by Scott Lax. Craven wrote the screenplay for the movie and found roles for a few Vermont actors, like Rusty DeWees, who splits his time these days between “Logger” stage shows, film work and stock-car racing at Thunder Road. The biggest “name” in the movie is 18-year-old Kiera Chaplin, granddaughter of Charlie Chaplin and great-granddaughter of of Nobel Prize-winning playwright Eugene O ’Neill. She’s making her cinematic debut . . . The Manchester Film Festival is expecting Michelle Pfeiffer, Treat Williams, Al Pacino, Harvey Keitel, Meryl Streep and Spalding Gray in town next June. A slew of actors has already agreed to attend Vermont’s first “highimpact, high-profile film festival,” according to marketing director John Lage. “We believe we can get them here because we are well-capitalized and well-connected,” he says, referring to founders Michael Charles Hill and Alan Scott-Moncrieff, both of whom are Hollywood veterans living in Vermont. Using Sundance as a model. Lage explains, “There are 10 film festivals in the world that the industry goes to. We would be the 11th.” Whatever it takes . . . Looks like Molly Ringwald has joined the breakfast club at Penny Cluse in Burlington. The now-blond actress also showed up at Smokejacks last Saturday, pretty in black and with a guy in tow, where she put down a couple glasses of wine and a quail appetizer with apricot barbecue sauce. “They were going to have cheese for dessert, but I think they got full,” says server Julie McDonough. “They were both really mellow.” Big tippers, too.

IN BRIEF You can touch that dial all you want — it won’t bring back Louie Manno and Jim Condon. After a brief comeback on WKDR-AM,

the extroverted hosts of the “Manno and Condon Show” are off the air and making meatball grinders full-time again. The deejays-turned-deliowners had a disagreement with the powers that be over “editorial con trol and guest selection, as Condon puts it. Station owner Ken Sqilier took particular exception to Jo y H o p k in s , a zany, free-thinking liberal who occasionally dropped in on the tag team and subbed once for Manno. She had her own Saturday-morning show on the station before Squier bought it two years ago from Manno, Condon and talk-show host Mark Johnson. “In my opinion, it was a First Amendment ques tion,” says Condon. “If Ken Squier had beer, a regular on our program, and the boss asked us to ban him, we would have done the same thing” . . . David Larsen and Rebecca Brookes take their salsa seriously. The dancing duo has taken two trips to Cuba — and one to Tampa — to perfect their fancy footwork. In Havana, they hooked up with a teacher at the National Theater of Cuba, who spent two hours a day instructing them in a swinging form of salsa that dates back to pre-Castro days. They are also teaching rueda, a traditional circle dance that’s sweeping big cities across the United States. In anticipation of the Burlington Latino Festival, the couple is starting up a new series of classes this week at the Champlain Club . . . Along with a hardware store, truck manu facturer and body shop, Hinesburg now has an arts school to recom mend it. In the tradition of the Shelburne Craft School, the Springhouse School of the Arts is offering summer classes to kids in ceramics, printmaking, drawing and sculpture in the renovated old post office on Commerce Street. They’ll be adding adult instruction in the fall. That makes three art schools in southern Chittenden County, if you count Shelburne and the Ferrisburgh Artisans Guild. “I honestly feel there are so many people interested in the arts, and so many kids, I don’t think there will be any problem for all of us to do really great,” says owner Mary McClementS. “A lot of people don’t want to cross Route 7” . . . Traversing State Street in Montpelier may be a safer bet. Last week the Vermont Arts Council unveiled a new sculpture garden — located between the council and the visitors’ center next door — that features rotating exhibits as well as walkways, gardens and seating for the public. The only permanent piece is an angular abstraction by Willard Boepple dedicated to the late James Goldstone of Shaftsbury. “I wanted to capture the spirit of Jim — walking, moving, talking. He was tall and thin with a lanky, antic grace and playful spirit,” Boepple says of the former arts council trustee and co-founder of the Vermont Film Commission. ®

B y S u san G r een hen a dozen noted American wordsmiths arrived in Beijing to meet with their local counter parts in 1983, the head of the Chinese Writers Guild hailed the female visitors as “pigeons for peace.” Vermont author Lisa Alther recalls that the scribes — including such literary luminaries as Alice Walker, Blanche Boyd, Tillie Olson, Bhartati Mukerjee, Nellie Wong and Kathryn Kilgore — were soon at war. “It was kind of like junior high school,” suggests Alther, best known for her novel Kinflicks. “People were concerned about who was sitting with who. Writers are such solitary people that strange things can happen when you put 12 of them together for three weeks of enforced camaraderie. So, in the end, we just went shopping.” The women would display the purchases on their hotel beds and go from room to room to admire each others bounty. Alther is still amused about a journey overtaken by rabid consumerism: “We began to call ourselves the feminist shoppers for peace,” she says. W hen travel experiences veer away from expectations, the memories are often more indeli ble than those o f trips that go

perfectly according to plan. In this season of summer getaways, how many Vermonters are actual ly enjoying the exact itinerary they anticipated? More than like ly, many unsuspecting vacation ers are on holiday with the unknown. But, as long as things don’t go dangerously wrong, even flirting with disaster can be fun — in retrospect. Take Susan Henry, for instance. In 1997, the Burlington college advisor went to Kentucky for a reunion with her 75-yearold mothers younger brother, Uncle Tom. “He was a Southern

was about 30 or 40 feet wide and maybe one and a half feet deep,” Henry explains. “At one point, he drove up a two-foot-high water fall. After about two miles, we went around a bend and the pas senger-side wheels got stuck in a sand bar.” Tom tried unsuccessfully to push the vehicle. Henry got out to lend a hand and found the water came up to her thighs. When she suggested gathering some branches to put under the tires, he grabbed an axe to chop down an entire small tree. No luck.

“ He said the river was full of snakes and I'd have to take the gun with m e ... I picked up the axe, saying I'd kill the snakes with that." — Susan Henry

good of boy who cold one tall tale after another,” Henry says. “He had white hair and a long white beard and dressed all in white clothes and a cowboy hat.” When Uncle Tom insisted on showing his sister and niece some property he owned, they piled into his Jeep. Before long, the car was barreling along a dirt road, then down a bank into a river. “It

Her uncle told Henry to walk back the way they had come for help. She noticed two things: Tom had unaccountably taken out his false teeth, putting them on the dashboard, and he had a pistol in his hand. “He said the river was full of snakes and I’d have to take the gun with me. I said I hate guns more than I hate snakes. I picked up the axe, say

ing I’d kill the snakes with that.” She and her mother began the exodus, sans gun or axe, fol lowing Tom’s advice to make a lot of noise to scare the snakes. “We were screaming, singing, bitching and laughing,” Henry says of the arduous hike. “We saw snakes, but they didn’t both» er us. Finally reaching a spot where the bank was low enough for them to scramble out of the water, they approached a run down, dirt-floor farmhouse, where the woman who came to the door was wary. “I realized this was Appalachia,” Henry remembers. She called the phone number Tom had given her and described the Jeep’s location to his friend Bill. “He said, ‘Oh, that’s about where we had to pick him up the last time.’” Apparently it was not Tom’s first rescue from the riverbed. Rick Winston of Montpelier required another type of rescue. About eight years ago, he and his wife, Andrea Serota, went to Provence in April. Assured by friends that it would be easy to find lodging, they discovered instead that the lush French countryside was all booked up. “We’d forgotten it was Easter,” explains Winston, owner of the Savoy Theater. “The town of Apt was flooded with German and Scandinavian tourists. Plus, regional junior high school soccer championships were taking place. Marching bands were parading through the marketplace. It was surreal just getting from one end

of town to the other.” The couple appealed for help at the Apt tourism agency. “A woman there said, ‘Oh, I wonder if Madame Bonnefois has >» room. And that is how Serota and Winston wound up spending three nights at a former guest house run by the 80-year-old Madame Bonnefois — which means good faith — who “talked our ears off.” Although their accommoda tions were a given, nothing went smoothly for Lou Andrews on a camping vacation with her daughter and granddaughter — Adrian Pratt and Caitlin Sullivan — in Maine four years ago. First, the transmission of her 1981 Honda gave out somewhere near Gorham, New Hampshire. Leaving it behind at a repair shop, they rented another car that got them to the coastal campground. “We heard a weather report that mentioned a tornado,” says Andrews, a Burlington office manager. “In the middle of the night, the wind picked up. We packed up and went to my brother’s house in Augusta.” Two days later, police and frogmen showed up in front of their camp site to search for two boys who had drowned while fishing in the lake. Before their bodies were found, however, a truck drove by with what appeared to be a man and a woman fighting inside. “It looked like he was hitting her,” says Andrews, who reported the situation to the campground

owners while Pratt followed the truck. The police were called again, but it turned out to be nothing more than the owners’ two sons having a spat. When Andrews and the oth ers returned to Gorham, the repair shop wanted an exorbitant amount of money to replace the Honda transmission. “We had to rent a truck to haul my car back to Vermont,” she says. “I took it to my own mechanic, but when I was filling up the gas tank of the truck, I clipped the canopy over the pumps. Luckily, the insur ance paid for the damage. Meanwhile, I had dropped Adrian off at our house in the New North End. She was sup posed to pick me up at the rental company when I returned the truck. 1 waited and waited, then called home. Her car wouldn’t start.” Andrews is now able to laugh about the long-term conse quences of this nightmare sce nario: “They’ll never vacation with me again.”

ontpelier filmmaker Walter Ungerer was merely hoping to scout locations in Greece when he and his wife hopped a freighter that promised free passage across the Atlantic in 1973. The Norwegian oil tanker with a crew from vari ous nations broke down near the Azores and, while the ship lan guished for 48 hours, two sailors began fighting. One hit the other with a pipe. Everyone thought he was dead, but the fellow sur

vived. Ungerer had become chum my with the officers, who actual ly allowed the inexperienced landlubber to steer the tanker into the English Channel. “The harbor was full of other freighters,” he says. “A pilot came aboard to work with the tugboats guiding the boat into port. He was cursing the Greek crew because, on a previous trip there, the ship had broken its moorings and caused an oil spill.” In the Netherlands, Ungerer bought a Saab for the drive to

“We heard a weather report that mentioned a tornado." — Lou Andrews Greece. There, he came down with pneumonia while living in a poorly heated hut on the island of Skiathos. Once the movie project fell through, he discov ered that the American dollar had been devalued, leaving him with only enough cash for one Icelandic Airlines ticket back to the States. His wife went and, waiting for her to wire him

money, he spent five days at a cheap hotel in Brussels, subsist ing on hamburgers. “Nothing terrible, but all of it memorable,” is how Ungerer sums up that odyssey almost three decades ago. Fran Cohen encountered a somewhat more hair-raising holi day on the Yucatan Peninsula’s Isla Mujares in the late 1970s. The Burlington nurse-practition er went south with “a friend named Peg who was a flirt.” While staying at a youth hostel, Peg was wooed by a local guy who wasted no time. After a week, he insisted she should move in with him. “At a party, he proclaimed his intention to marry her,” Cohen says. “Everybody was drinking. He became very possessive, scar ing us. We learned that someone had a gun and decided to get out of there. We rode five miles on rickety bicycles, but he was fol lowing us on his motorcycle. So we ditched the bikes and hid in the bushes, then took the first ferry off the island. That was a very good lesson.” Amorous strangers can be a hazard for women traveling alone. In 1975 Roz Payne of Richmond set out to join the Living Theater, a troupe of politi cal artists then performing in Turin. After flying to Paris, she frequented the American Express office in hopes of finding a ride to Italy. “I met a Swedish guy with a Volkswagen bus who said he’d drop me in Turin,” Payne says. “He was a nice, quiet person,

but, after three days or so, he wanted to get friendlier than I cared to. I grabbed my suitcase and left. There I was, in the mid dle of a little village in the Italian Alps.” She started to hitchhike. A Catholic priest took Payne to a train station, bought her a ticket and introduced her to a woman who would “watch over me” dur ing the ride. Upon arrival, this woman commandeered two young men to escort Payne by street car and bus to her precise destination in Turin. “It was amazing how well everything worked out,” she muses. “It could have been hell.” Italy was also the scene of a dramatic escape for Dee Steffan, an educational administrator from Williston. En route to Milan in the early 1970s, she and a friend hitched a ride with a man who kept mumbling some thing about la bella luna — the beautiful moon. He became more and more menacing. “I had a Swiss Army Knife,” Steffan explains. “I had to threaten him with it. Then we walked the rest of the way. That was the life, when I was hitching around Europe.” As a student at the University of Nice during that period, she was dallying with a young man when his “volatile French girl friend threw a can of gas in the window. We thought a match would follow, so we dashed out of the dorm, jumped on his motorcycle and went from Nice to Monaco, going a million miles an hour. I was a stupid, inexperi-

enced one-night-stand American.” A 1978 European sojourn gave Margaret M unt and her mother, Janet, a run for their money. In Corsica, they decided jto spend an inexpensive night sleeping on a beautiful beach. But first, they wandered over to a quaint restaurant nearby for a meal. “We saw a gigantic lobster in a tank and my mom suggested we splurge, so we ordered it,” Margaret says. “We ate till we couldn’t take another bite. Then, they brought the bill. I looked at it and said, ‘Omigod, I think this lobster costs $120 American.’ That was more than we had spent on the entire trip. A woman sitting next to us pointed out that there are no lobsters in Corsica. We had just eaten the restaurant’s mascot.” Crab legs were a key ingredi ent in the saga Susan Henry’s sis ter Dixie tells of a 1977 trek in Colorado. The Burlington lawyer rendez-voused with her family in Denver. While the rest of their relatives relaxed, she and her ^ father, Ed, opted for an excursion in the Rockies that would begin at a relative’s Breckenridge condo. “We had two days to do this because we were due back in Denver Sunday night for a turkey dinner,” Henry says. “It took us a few hours to reach Breckenridge, where we bought frozen crab legs for supper.'We envisioned eating them on the deck of the condo after taking a scenic day trip to Aspen, passing through Basalt

and Leadville.” This goal involved a moun tainous climb on a paved thor oughfare that eventually became a narrow dirt road. “We realized there was no place to turn around,” Henry recalls. “The road became muddy. We were afraid my 1969 Chevy Nova would get stuck. Then, we came around the corner to a spot where the plow had obviously stopped. Ahead, it was all snow. We could see Leadville in the distance, but there was no way to drive there.” After finding a place to turn around, they began to methodi cally make their way back. This time, the mud was victorious. “One front and one rear tire were stuck. O ut comes the jack. But the mud hole was so deep, we couldn’t get out. We started to find rocks to put under the - jack. It was dark and cold. We had no gloves. We were day dreaming about having those crab legs on the condo deck.” Thanks to repeated efforts, the Chevy was liberated and they found their way back to the paved road. “We were laughing and yelling ‘We’re saved!’ when the radiator light came on,” Henry says, speculating that one of the rocks must have punc tured a hole and the anti-freeze leaked out. “We were about 12,000 feet up. My dad thought we could coast down the moun tain in neutral, turning the engine on only long enough to make it up any little inclines.” When they passed a stream, three empty soda cans were pressed into service several times to pour small amounts of water into the radiator. That tedious process finally got them to Basalt, where they were drawn to a motel’s lights. “It was mid night. We were giddy with suc cess and survival when we knocked. The guy there took one look at us, with our faces, hair and clothing covered with mud, and slammed the door shut. We had no choice: My dad took the front seat of the car; I took the back.” The next morning, they washed up at the motel’s outside faucet, went to a diner in nearby Glenwood Springs for breakfast, arranged to have the radiator repaired, had a nice swim in the town’s therapeutic hot springs, rented a car, drove to Breckenridge, ate the crab legs on the condo deck and went back to retrieve the Chevy. They were half a day late for the turkey din ner in Denver. hile trying to ensure their clients will have hassle-free vacations, travel agents are often the first to hear harrowing tales when things go wrong. This is a business, mind you, in which tourist wannabes sometimes exhibit astonishing naivete. Betsy Logan, an agent at The Travel Network in South Burlington, recounts

L being asked if its possible to catch a train to Hawaii or take in Disneyland when no children are around. Dick Malone of CruiseOne in South Hero knows of people who, packing every stitch of clothing when it’s time to put their luggage outside the cabin door at the end of a voyage, wind up with only a toothbrush and borrowed robe. Marion Milne of Washington, who founded a chain of agencies in Vermont and New Hampshire, remembers the Boston-bound honeymooners who left their luggage back home. A well-meaning family member drove all the way from Barre in the wee hours to drop the suitcases off outside the cou ple's hotel room door. They were promptly stolen. Milne has a vivid recollection of her own first trip abroad as a teenager in 1951. “I was going to see my sister and her husband, who were stationed in Brazil. It was a 30-hour trip from New York to Rio then, with refueling stops in Puerto Rico and Trinidad. The person next to me

“A woman sitting next to us pointed out that there are no lobsters in Corsica. We had just eaten the restaurant's mascot." - Margaret Munt whispered, T think there’s some thing wrong with the engine.’ The pilot announced we had to make an emergency landing in the middle of the Amazon jun gle. We landed safely and spent three days at a small hotel that was not very plush.” Milne’s most cherished sou venir from that misadventure is a certificate of accomplishment that Pan Am used to hand out to passengers during a mid-flight ceremony to celebrate crossing the Equator. Whether transcontinental or domestic, all’s well that ends well — and sometimes the worst journeys make for the best sto ries. (7)

here are lots of cool things you could be doing during this long, hot summer. But the coolest, both literally and figuratively, involve water. Luckily for us, Vermont’s water situation is much different from the one in Texas, the great state from which I moved last year. There it is not advisable to come into contact with any water, including rain, unless you fancy bleeding ulcers and oozing epidermal boils. What clean water there is goes to water the lawns at the Governors Mansion. So we Vermonters should count our blessings that we have lots of relatively uncontaminated water in which to frolic. Just because the water here generally won’t give you dysentery, however, doesn’t mean you can breathe when immersed in it. And since I have some hydro issues, I thought it would be wise to take a water safety course before I com menced frolicking this year. I was supposed to hook up with an officer from my local police department, a water-safe ty expert who said he would teach me the ropes. Unfortunately, he ^ blew me off completely * and didn’t return my calls. Thanks for nothing, officer. Good thing I knew a thing or two about water already, since my older brother once held my head under it for two very long minutes. Water should be treated with respect, and there are many reasons why. First, even in the warmest months Vermont’s water can be chilly — or, as it is informally known, “willy chilly.” I first heard this term from my oldest friend, Hector, a water spe cialist from Puerto Rico. It refers to a chilliness so profound it causes the male genitalia to retreat to the body’s interior in a primal, defensive — and, ironically, northward — migration. There they dis guise themselves as ovaries until either the chilliness has passed or you pee in your swim suit. With this in mind, it’s important to be able to recognize the signs of hypothermia. Never become willy chilly if you can help it. For if your jewels get sucked up into your lower abdomen, guys, you may be in serious danger of becoming hypothermic. If this happens, get out of the water immediately and start screaming. I don’t know how you women can recognize hypothermia. Ask your mothers. Here are some other tips that apply to everyone: Wear your lifejacket at all times when on a boat. Only Philistines and Take Back Vermont types who drive their pickups onto ice-covered lakes in the spring eschew lifejackets. In the event of a boating mishap, a lifejacket will keep you afloat, and maybe even alive, until the rescue boat can arrive to run you over. Do not drink and swim, and never drink and get behind the wheel of any kind of boat. As a mat ter of fact, don’t drink on a boat even if you aren’t driving. Particularly those permanently moored casino boats, which feed you drinks for the express purpose of taking you to the cleaners. Avoid sailboats entirely. The vast majority of

l b » % # % # % # % J p 1 1 %2I

people sailing do it maybe once a year and don’t have a clue how to steer them. They are also usually rich and well-insured, and may therefore be a little careless about running people over. I know what you’re thinking: “Hey, I could fake an injury and sue them for damages.” This mindset is so American it is almost patriotic, but be advised that it is extremely tricky, not to mention unpleasant, to achieve the proper oxygen-deprived and bloated look of a drowning victim. If you decide, after kicking that last keg, to swim across Lake Champlain and are then amazed to find you can’t make it all the way across, scream, but not so loudly that you disturb any of the near by endangered nesting waterfowl. If you happen to

hope of being rescued doesn’ ean you should despair.

Relax, conserve your ener

pnd think happy thoughts. have a flaregun on your person, use it to shoot at the sailboat that is bearing down on you. No matter what, do not panic. Do not think about the slow and agonizing fate that awaits you. Blithely disregard the Angel of Death as he curls his gnarled, bony fingers around your neck, squeezing the last breaths of air from your rapidly filling lungs. Just because you have little hope of being rescued doesn’t mean you should despair. Relax, conserve your energy and think happy thoughts. Avoid heavy foods before swimming. It is not advisable, for example, to chew on a stick of butter before playing water polo. Save that as a reward for all the additional exercise you will get flailing around from the inevitable cramp. Sunscreen, people, sunscreen! We Vermonters are so ghostly white that we now officially have the highest melanoma mortality rate in the nation. Use a spatula to slather SPF 100 on every exposed por tion of your body, or you will look like your aver age Australian, covered head to toe with dark, malignant growths, within hours of setting foot on the beach. A corollary: Do not use vegetable-based oils to get a better tan. My buddy Hector did this once, which nobody could quite figure out since he was already pretty dark, and when we finally peeled him off the tremendous cookie tray he was sleeping on and stuck a meat thermometer up his nose, the lit tle arrow pointed to the area indicating “cooked” for veal. If you absolutely must roast yourself, use a non-stick spray. That’s all I’ve got for now, but it should be enough to keep everyone safe this summer. As long as you stay away from water and avoid midday sun. Now that I think about it, maybe you shouldn’t go out at all. ®

ong ago, the thing to do on a first date was to take your honey on a day trip to the zoo. Why? I do not know. To my mind, the sight of a bored animal locked in a cage holds way too much portent for relationships to be an image you’d want to intro duce so early in the dating game. And I suppose this couid have something to do with the diminishing popularity of the 19th-century-style menagerie zoos and the subsequent rise of the new breed of eco-conscious Biodome-type facilities. But I doubt it. Any way you slice it, if you’re heading out for a day at the zoo, you’re going to see ani mals in cages, regardless of how glorious they may appear to the untrained eye. Certainly not every facility that showcases critters for cash is an animal Auschwitz whose care takers torture squirrels on their days off. Nevertheless, rest assured there ain’t a single ape at Parc Safari Africain who doesn’t wish he were still back with his friends in the jungle, humping Jane Gaodall and chasing ornery Pygmi$$, instead of begging for leftover egg sandwiches at the bottom of a monkey pit. Even the most ardent animal advocates, however, will acknowl edge that some zoos are better than others. W ith this in mind, here’s a guide to the major zoos within striking distance of Montreal, and the pros and cons of each.

page 14a

zoos. Universally scorned by ani mal-rights advocates, in recent years the Granby gang has active ly promoted the facility as being dedicated to the preservation of species. And, of course, to edu cating kids of all ages about the wonderful world of nature and the magnificent creatures who lived in it before they were carted off to Granby. Highlights: Tigers, lions, gorillas, elephants and reptiles! More than 1000 happy animals representing

270 species! The Amazoo water park featuring the largest wave pool in Quebec! Pros: They’ve sure got a lot of neat exotic species. Cons: Most of them wish they were dead. If you hope to gain any understanding about how animals do their thing in the wild, it’s not going to be by watching them restlessly pace back and forth in a concrete enclosure. Ecomuseum

21125 Ste-Marie, Ste-Anne-deBellevue www.ecomuseum.ca 514-457-9449

Located in the lush surround ings of Ste-Anne-de-Bellevue, at the westernmost tip of Montreal island, the Ecomuseum is home to more than 100 animal species indigenous to the St. Lawrence River Valley. Most of the crea tures on display here have either been orphaned in the wild or imprinted by people and, conse quently, wouldn’t last a day if they were returned to the bush. Others, like the museum’s prized Arctic fox, were purchased or res cued from fur farms. Like most

zoos these days, they claim their m andatl is re ^ ^ ch , education and conservation- In this case, its probably true. Highlights: A walk through one of their trails should afford a glimpse into the lives of captive bald eagles, black bears, otters, snakes, etc., all frolicking merrily in their “natural” habitat. Pros: The Ecomuseum hopes that visitors to their facility will leave with a greater understanding and appreciation of the ecosystem, and develop a commitment to protecting our natural resources. Cons: The proprietors won’t let you poke the animals with sticks.

A W ere finally up & running! Parc Safari Africain

Parc Omega

Hemmingford www. parcsafari .qa. ca 1-800-465-8724 Boasting more than 900 ani mals representing more than 80 species, Parc Safari Africain is one of the few local zoos where you can still flick your cigarette butts at most of the animals to see if they will try to eat them. Parc Safari is very proud of its “hilarious troop of snow mon keys,” who never fail to provide “non-stop action, fun and educa tion for everyone.”

Route 323 North, Montebello www.parc-omega.com 819-423-5487 Parc Omega is similarly themed to Parc Safari Africain, except all of its animals are indigenous to North America and only a handful of them are fenced in. Open year ’round, the park is an enormous facility spanning more than 1500 acres.

Highlights: Thrill to the sight of a solitary elephant chained to a fake tree on a shadeless island and try to dismiss the fact that elephants in the wild live in groups and are constantly on the move. Learn that captive giraffes will come up to your car and let you pet them in exchange for a bite of your sandwich. Just like in the wild! Marvel at all the cute newborn animals they have on display, and don’t ask about what happens to the older ones, or about the tiny stalls in the dilapi dated warehouse where they all live at night and during the off season. Pros: A pretty good amusement park. Cons: It still exists, and people actually go there.

Highlights: Moose, bison, wolves, bears and a first-class Bird of Prey show, where you can witness live eagles swooping down on rodents and leftover chicken from the local St-Hubert Rotisserie.

Pros: Outside of actually trekking into the wild, Parc Omega is probably as close as you’re going to get to local wildlife in its natu ral habitat. The animals spend their lives outdoors and are not rounded up every night to sleep in warehouses. Cons: You’re not allowed to hunt them or feed them tobacco prod ucts. Bearbrook Farm

8411 Russell, Navan, Ontario www.bearbrookfarm.com 1-800-668-4474 My personal favorite, Bearbrook Farm near Ottawa is a petting zoo with a nature trail thrown in for good measure. You can admire elk, buffalo, wild boar, emus, ostriches, llamas, donkeys, Scottish highland cattle and miniature “zebu” cattle from Sri Lanka. W hat separates Bearbrook Farm from your aver age petting zoo is, of course, that if you see an animal who really strikes you as mouth-watering, there’s a good chance you’ll get the opportunity to chow down on it in the farm’s worldrenowned dining room. No kid ding. Pros: You can eat their animals.

Cons: Some of what you learn will be bullshit — or batshit, as the case may be. In the muchballyhooed bat cave, you have the opportunity to observe these

wacky creatures in a faithful “re creation of their natural environ ment.” Except that bats spend as much or more time in the forest as they do in caves. The Biodome bats, however, are a much splashier spectacle inside their bat cave, so that’s the only place you’ll see them here. Not the end of the world, but kind of lame from a facility that sells itself on the education angle.

Petting Zoos

The shopping mall circuit; La Ferme Ecologique at Cap-StJacques; the Little Farm at Parc Angrignon, etc. Most animal advocates will admit that life for an animal in a petting zoo is pretty good, and the petting zoo people will tell you it offers children essential insights into the life of farm ani mals, which helps them acquire a greater understanding of the ani mal kingdom. O f course, that the sort of farm these places idealize hasn’t really existed in Canada in more than 50 years doesn’t figure into this picture. As Pierre Barnotti of the Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals puts it, “If they really wanted to show kids what life was like for a farm ani mal, they would bring a row of factory-farmed chickens in the tiny cages they spend their entire lives in.” But that might not be as big a crowd-pleaser. ©

Zoo Test Here's a simple list o f things to look for or ask about w hen visiting a zoo, to get a sense of the facility. 3. Are the cages large enough for the animals to move abhut in a natural way, or are they confined so that they can only move a short distance before hitting a cage boundary? 2. Are animals kept on inap propriate hard substrates like concrete, or are they kept on more appropriate natural sub strates like earth? 3. Are animals provided with shelter from the sun, rain and wind? Are all animals in the cage able to obtain shelter at the same time if necessary? 4. Can animals remove them selves from the view o f the public when they choose, or are they forced to be on dis play? 5. Are cages relatively barren, containing few, if any, furnish ings, or are they filled with materials the animals can inter act with? 6. Are animals that climb pro vided with climbing structures throughout their cage? Are ani mals that burrow given areas to dig in? Are birds provided with an opportunity to fly? 7. D o any animals appear injured or ill? Do they appear to be moving normally? Are they pacing in a repetitive way, or displaying any other unusual behaviors?

B y M a r ia u s a C alta quarter moon hung over St. Johnsbury like a crescent roll, the sky meringued with clouds and an occasional star glistening like a silver dragee on a Christmas cookie. Julia Child was in town. Wednesday night, people packed themselves like bean sprouts into the auditorium at the St. Johnsbury Academy to hear Child, and part-time Vermont resident Judith Jones,

her legendary editor, have “A Conversation About Food.” The stage was plainly set with a bistro table and two stools, two enormous baskets of flowers and a piano. As nearly 800 people pressed into the sweltering hall, a pianist entertained with what seemed to be a medley of “food songs.” I picked out “cockles and mussels” from “Molly Malone” and “That’s Amore,” with its “W hen the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie” line. Appropriately, we also heard

Chet/author Julia Child “Yankee Doodle” — it has a “macaroni” reference, remember? This was a foodie crowd. The

folks sitting behind me wiled away the time before the presen tation discussing dinner: One

Suddenly, the music stopped and the audience rose in unison at the first sight of the towering Julia Child —- who, nearing 90, is still an imposing figure — as she walked onstage with Jones, the editor who in 1961 midwifed Child’s first book, Mastering the A rt o f French Cooking. It was co authored with Simone Beck and Louisette Bertholle. Jones has worked on all of the others since. Jones floated in, elegant in a cool-looking, full-skirted dress of white. Child wore khaki pants, a white blouse and raspberrycolored jacket. She sat expectant ly on her high perch, one foot swinging, like a child at a soda fountain anticipating a banana split. She looked like she was having fun. “How do you introduce Tiger Woods to a foursome at the country club?” asked Debbie Salomon, the Burlington Free Press food editor and writer who acted as moderator for the evening. “How do you intro duce Gwyneth Paltrow to a Weight-Watchers meeting?” She answered her own question: “O n your feet with hands clap ping.” The audience rose again, the second of three standing o’s offered that evening.

W hat is Child’s favorite food? “Mashed potatoes with lots and lots of butter.” Her least favorite? “Lumpy mashed potatoes with no butter.” And the logical fol low-up: “How do you keep mashed potatoes from lumping?” Answer: She uses a potato mash er and, for large batches, her Kitchen Aid mixer. In that high-pitched, oft-par odied voice — described by Salomon “as familiar to the nation as Bernie Sanders’ is to a Vermonter” — Child reflected on the phenomenal success of her first cooking show on televi sion. “I think it made food much more fun,” she offered. “People looked at me and said, ‘If she can do it, I can do it.’ And they were right.” She seemed enormously interested in the audience’s opin ions, often asking a questioner, “Well, what do you think?” And she was not afraid of being polit ically incorrect. Child described the “housewives” taking classes at the Cordon Bleu as “not very interesting,” and the woman who ran the school as “nasty. . . She’s no longer with us, so I can Say what I like,” she said mischie vously, adding, “French women are always as nasty as they come.” Child said she was “turned off” by foods labeled “organic” and “all natural.” She took on what Jones called “the food

She told the story of receiving $250 and a contract from Houghton Mifflin for that first cookbook, and how, when the manuscript — contain ing hundreds of pages devoted to sauces and poultry alone — arrived on the editor’s desk, it was rejected as “too detailed.” That’s when Judith Jones, at Knopf, spotted the tome. “I had just spent some time in France and I was ripe for it,” Jones explained. “If we had published the book three or four years earlier, it would have laid an egg,” said Child.

After the talk, audience mem bers paraded slowly up the street to the Athenaeum, where those seeking an autograph, handshake or just a glimpse formed a long line. Inside, volunteers offered trays of desserts, many made by Vermont chefs, but many also made by Athenaeum supporters, who dug out family heirloom recipes and tattered copies of Child’s books to bake their offer ings. It was hot and crowded, and I left almost immediately, but I’m told that she stayed until the last book was signed.

B y Pa m e l a P o ls to n met Don Sunseri in the late ’80s, and it turned out to be the first of many pleasurable opportunities I would have over the years to write about GRACE. That’s Grass Roots Arts and Community Effort, a nonprofit organization he founded 1975 to, bring art into lives that had none — initially to senior citizens around the Northeast Kingdom. Though Sunseri has died of pan creatic cancer at the age of 62, far younger than some of his former charges, GRACE survives him. His creation has a thriving life of its own, with a dedicated staff in Hardwick whose good works reach around Vermont and inspire similar programs around the country. GRACE has a kind of tensile strength that comes from giving joy, and its selfless heart and good humor are Sunseri’s great legacies. My first GRACE visit took in a community center in St. Johnsbury and a nursing home in Greensboro. I watched and took notes as Sunseri and an assistant settled their elderly “students” around a table, placing paper, crayons, markers, colored pencils and paints within easy reach. Some o f the old folks were alert and attentive and attacked their project with practiced zeal. They beamed whenever Sunseri stopped to admire their handi

work, which was often. Others seemed practically catatonic, list ing in their wheelchairs and bare ly cognizant of the markers Sunseri would patiently place in their gnarled hands. Either way, he would shout hearty encour agements — so the hearingimpaired wouldn’t miss them. Sunseri’s was not the let-meshow-you-how-to-draw-that-better method; whatever his ancient students mustered was an accom plishment to be cheered. He was ever the doting teacher, and yet never, ever treated these elders like children. And sometimes, what they produced was truly amazing. Under his tutelage, some seniors found an artistic gift that had never been unwrapped in their previous 70 or 80 years. As enthusiasm — and prices — for raw, untutored “out sider art” raged in places like New York, Sunseri’s brood quiet ly turned out piles of the stuff in places like Greensboro. On that same journalistic junket, Sunseri generously invit ed me to spend the night at his home — a delightful, art-filled house in West Glover he shared with his longtime partner Bert Francke. That night, over dinner,

I learned Sunseri had not always lived in the Northeast Kingdom, nor had he always been gay. A Chicago native who had attended that city’s renowned Art Institute, he had moved to New York City in the late ’60s, exhibited his work with the O.K. Harris Gallery in SoHo, and been mar ried to the painter Elizabeth Murray. He had one son, who lives in Los Angeles. I don’t know when he made the switch in his love life, but I do know Sunseri moved to Vermont in 1974 and took a job washing dishes in a nearby nurs ing home. Soon he was setting

grants, GRACE was able to sup port itself, pay its director, if not handsomely, and acquire a small crew. At current count, the organization has a staff of seven, dozens of volunteers and a board of directors; its financial status is as secure as one dependent on philanthropy can be. The pro grams include hundreds of work shops annually, and well-attended exhibits. Sunseri had a 20-year retrospective exhibit of his own this summer at the Tamarack Gallery in East Craftsbury; every thing sold immediately. GRACE has been the subject of many articles — including a colorful feature in the Smithsonian magazine — as well as film and television produc tions. The bestknown artist asso ciated with GRACE, Barre’s Gayleen Aiken, has a book and a documentary, directed by Jay Craven, of her own. Sunseri’s vision was to reach out to those whose artistic gifts were dormant and unsuspected. It was as if his own remarkable talent was somehow contagious. Over the years GRACE staffers have seen the creative spirit bloom in those virtually at death’s door; in still-active seniors whose lives had been too penuri

up informal art classes for the residents, and by the end of the next year he had founded GRACE. It struggled at first, as most arts organizations do, but word of his fledgling workshops spread. The materials, after all, were cheap, and so was the labor of Sunseri’s love. Through a grad ual accumulation of gigs and

ous, or too brutal, for art; in the mentally disabled who found unique, and sometimes brilliant, self-expression through art. O f the several works I own by GRACE artists, my favorite is a drawing of Tony Bennett. The tuxedoed singer is outlined in black marker, and his big face is a highly unnatural blue-green, his smile a brilliant magenta. His name written neatly on the can vas was unnecessary; the guy is instantly recognizable. The artist, Huddee Herrick, had been a teacher at Marlboro College. She began drawing after her husband died; later, a stroke forced her to relearn speech and to draw with her left hand. I remember Sunseri telling me that Huddee’s uncovered tal ent was for caricature. No kid ding. She saw celebrities on tele vision and distilled their essence on paper. I don’t own a single record by Tony Bennett, but the likeness of him hanging in my bathroom gives me joy in daily doses. It makes me smile; it makes me feel affectionate toward an old lady I never met; it reminds me of Don. It’s too corny to say that Don Sunseri filled people’s lives with sunshine, nor is it quite accurate. In fact he helped his artists -— and he considered every one of them an artist— find their own light in the darkness. There is no greater state of GRACE than that. ®

You don’t have to be a Winooski resident to be a part o f the historical photo, Gouvin notes.

On the

Makeover

hink of all the hot-button issues out there right now, ripe and juicy and ready for the picking by anyone writing a TV column: You’ve got the Chandra Levy mystery-slashscandal. Though there’s so little actual new information to report, nine out of 10 television packages are already beyond Levy and Sen. Gary Condit and onto the r media’s handling o f the LevyCondit story. T hat’s what the news media does these days when it wants to use a hot story to get ratings, but doesn’t have anything new to say. It takes a long, hard look at the long, hard look it’s been taking and rehashes old information in the guise of responsible self-appraisal. There’s the shark boy. Poor kid. The only thing more amaz ing than the story of his uncle wrestling the fish to shore was the instant total saturation of electronic media by it. Usually you have to be at least vice presi

dent to have updates on your health worked into the cable news rotation. And then you’ve got a knifewielding psycho on “Big Brother.” Normally, I wouldn’t be able to resist a development like that. But, hey, it’s summertime. The livings easy. The cottons high. And I’m in no mood for sex, violence or reality shows fea turing people with names like Bunky. It’s time to sit back in a deck chair, fire up a Macanudo and muse upon the harmless marginalia of the medium. The changing face of the tele vision makeover, for example. Now, you might not think right off the bat that subject can tell us anything interesting and new about society. And you may be right. All the same, it’s fun to put a seemingly insignificant phe nomenon like that under the crit ical microscope once in a while, if only for the chuckles. As everyone knows, the

T h is

r a il

makeover has been a staple of morning television since the dawn of the format. When the makeover made its TV debut, Willard Scott was lithe. Martha Stewart had bad taste. Bryant Gumbel was — well, he was still full of himself, but he was real, real young. From the earliest days of “The Today Show” to install ments I watched as recently as last week, producers have con jured compelling broadcasting simply by putting an ordinary person in front of a camera and, in a matter of minutes, making him or her more appealing. Hairdressers restyle hair. Makeup artists recalibrate the application of lipstick, eyeshadow and mas cara. Fashion consultants replace rags with trendy splendor. Presto chango. Caterpillar to butterfly. Those were simpler times, of course. Like everything else in our media-driven, push-it-to-thenext-stage era, the once-innocent

makeover has itself undergone radical transformation. Witness “The Revenge Makeover.” You can see these on your seamier tabloid shows, but nobody gets into a Revenge Makeover quite the way Maury Povich does. W hat he likes to do is seek out women who were teased and mocked because of their appear ance when they werfe young. Maury puts them in a push-up bra, dresses them like hookers and then parades the babes in front of the very guys who did the teasing way back when. The goal is to get them so aroused they grovel, begging for forgive ness and a date. At which point the scantily clad former ugly duckling realizes her lifelong dream of laughing in their faces. But these uplifting encoun ters are still only an occasional feature for Maury and his tabloid pals. To find an entire program — and there are several — solely devoted, five days a week, to

makeovers, you’ve got to change the channel. To, say, The Learning Channel. Every week day morning at 11, TLC carries a little something called “A Makeover Story.” Yup, an entire 30 minutes dedicated to snazzing up two ordinary American citi zens. Sometimes they’re husband and wife. Sometimes mother and daughter. Sometimes they’re just a couple of girlfriends. In the course of the half hour they bare their souls, share their dreams, pick out cute new outfits, get facials, manicures, pedicures and great new hairdos. O n the other end they are new, improved and, to hear them tell it, spiritually awakened. It’s really very moving. I mean tedious and superfi cial. But popular. So popular, in fact, the network decided to try the same thing with real estate. “Trading Spaces” is another Learning Channel production. I think what we’re supposed to

learn from this one is, never lis ten to an interior decorator who tells you to rip out your best friend’s favorite carpet, pour con crete all over his floor and paint it black. Two couples redecorate a favorite room in each others homes with only a limited bud get, a lot of trust and, like I said, an often pushy and delusional professional to work with. It’s a riot to watch, even if it does sometimes end in the tragic loss of friendship. For a society obsessed with youth and appearance, I suppose it’s not surprising the TV makeover has gained in appeal. Maybe it helps us believe there’s hope for us, too — that each and every one of us is just a new pair of pumps and perm job away from fabulousness. That perfec tion can be realized without the fuss and muss of exercise, eating right and, you know, actual effort.

Makeovers have come to per meate the culture: • Linda Tripp got one in hopes it would help America learn to love her. • Before hitting the publicity cir cuit, smarmy “Survivor” champ Richard Hatch underwent several procedures in the hope that... well, who knows what he was thinking? H alf the free world had already seen him fat and naked. • The ads for the new smash hit Legally Blonde describe the effect of Reese Witherspoon’s presence on Harvard as “the old school [getting] a makeover.” • The entire premise of the recent Freddie Prinze Jr. romance She’s A ll That involved a nerdy high school girl getting a makeover and transforming into the coolest chick on campus. • The Fox network is planning a familiar-sounding special called “W ho Wants to Marry a Prince?” The promos promise that, if you decide to enter the competition

and win, you’ll receive a total makeover prior to your date with a real European royal. Why am I so sure the free makeover is going to be the best part of the deal here? W hat does sur prise me, though, is just how far television has taken this. Call me naive, but I would never have believed that painful and often dangerous cosmetic surgery would become network enter tainment. Much less that a major broadcast entity would go along with the idea. But there it is every Saturday on E! — “Before & After.” It features three people who’ve decided that the best way to solve the problems of lovehandles, noses, thighs, bellies or butts is to undergo an operation on TV.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t this one of the signs of the Apocalypse? I’ve watched a cou ple of episodes, and this is sad, sick stuff. In one, a woman named Monique, who’d been Playmate of the Year in 1979, goes in for a face lift. Once she’s lying there out cold, the surgeon looks down at her and says to the camera, “Hey, I think I did her brow lift four or five years ago!” As he slices her open and slides slabs of her face around, he

remarks, “T hat’s a procedure used by a lot of people in the public eye.” O f course, if poor Monique were in the public eye, she probably wouldn’t feel the need to put herself through all this. O n the same episode, a 20year-old strawberry blonde goes in for a Trans-Umbilical Breast Implant. Yup. A boob job where the doctor shoves a tube through

A Supreme Court ruling on “weed whacking" may spell trouble for gardeners By George Thabault here could be more State Troopers getting high this year. High in the sky, that is. They’ll be looking for home grown marijuana plants sprinkled throughout the gardens and farms of the Green Mountains, especially as harvest time approaches. If, like me, you are growing not-so-common varieties of flowers and vegetables in a large backyard garden, be pre pared. Aerial surveillance is a key part of the State Police Department’s federally funded marijuana eradication program. Last summer troopers pulled up 3691 pot plants and made 48 arrests. Because of a Vermont Supreme Court decision this May, troopers are now able to get property search warrants much more easily than in the past. This opens the door to what might be a huge increase in surveillance overflights, plant seizures and arrests. The Vermont Supreme Court decided, on a 3-2 decision, that state police troopers flying over someone’s property need only see plants “similar in color, shape and texture” to marijuana to get a search warrant to raid that property. Previously, troopers and local police officers had to spend time getting close enough to the plants on the ground K* to make a positive ■“ botanical identifica tion before asking a judge for a search | _______ warrant. Then there was the time-con suming work of typing up find ings from the visit — known as affidavits — to back up a warrant request, presenting them to a judge and waiting for a reply. W ith all the time troopers can save now, my garden or yours might get a flyover from, in effect, a giant weed-whacker. The pivotal case began in September 1999, when state police trooper Chris Campbell spotted plants from 523 to 600 feet in the air that looked an awful lot like marijuana to him. Officer Campbell s affidavit details the flyover operation: “The purpose of this flight

was the detection of mari juana plants. In the area of Vt. Rt. 116 in the town of Bristol, north of the Middlebury town line, I observed a stand of plants consis tent in color, shape and texture with marijuana plants. Upon closer examination from the air, it was determined that the plants were situated within a vegetable garden on the property of what was later identified as the Samuel Whiteside property. (Ownership of this property was determined by contacting Penny Sherwood of the Bristol Town Offices). “After landing the helicopter I drove with Patrolman D. Sweet and Guardsman J. Valley to the suspect property. Once there we entered a driveway of an adjacent property, which afforded us a view of the back yard of the Whiteside property. From that position I observed 15-20 mari juana plants growing in a veg etable garden. This garden is located within 50 feet of the main house (white).” The Whiteside property was being rented by Lois Melchior of Bristol, who was charged with growing marijuana. Melchior, now 57, pled guilty to the culti vation charge last year, received a $5000 fine and no jail time. During the case, the court threw

per sonal use and that she never shared her views with students. “They were more shocked than anyone” about the incident, she says. On May 11 of this year, the Supreme Court ruled against her, 3-2, agreeing with the lower court that “the information acquired in the course of the aeri al observation contained in the warrant application was sufficient alone to support a finding of probable cause.” The majority cautioned “against hypertechnical scrutiny of the language in an affidavit, however, and have instead encouraged a common sense reading when making determinations of probable cause.” The two dissenters in the decision, Justices John Dooley III and Denise Johnson, saw prob lems with the majority view. They pointed out that early in its growth, marijuana resembles

W ill vegetable gardens or erenmal beds be confused with

the nasty weed from on high? out the search warrant request information gained from the neighbor’s property, but allowed the flyover affidavit. Melchior appealed the case later, arguing that the trooper’s search warrant affidavit, now based solely on the overflight, was insufficient to support a finding of probable cause. “I really thought we could win the appeal,” says Melchior, a veteran high school math teacher who lost her job as a result of the case but is now seeking to reclaim her license and teach again. She maintains that the marijuana growing was only for

dozens of plants. Dooley wrote, “Reduced to its essence, the holding of the majority is that every time a police officer flies over a large green plant, with narrow leaves that shine in the sunlight, and sees it from the air, he can obtain a warrant to search the home of the landowner where the plant is found. There will be no reason for the police to attempt to obtain a positive identification on the ground. The result, I fear, will be unnecessary and mistaken home searches, with a clear invasion of the priva cy of Vermont homeowners.” * Melchior shares that view.

People should have priva cy rights above their homes and land.” Will vegetable gardens or perennial beds be confused with the nasty weed from on high? There’s no question that identify ing plants from a distance of two football fields can be tough — sometimes it’s a challenge from just a few feet away. In 1980 I was helping inmates at the Chittenden County Correctional Center on Swift Street in South Burlington grow vegetables and flowers in a field just up the road from the prison. You know, outdoor work, horticultural training, better food for the troops... Governor Richard Snelling was one of the politicians who stopped by that summer and fall — it was an election year — to check out the program that had been approved by his Department of Corrections. Gov. Snelling was down-toearth and relaxed with the guys, at first. Most were kids, 18 to 25, who had committed crimes like robbery or assault while under the influence of alcohol. They took him on a tour of the threeacre garden, and he looked approvingly over the sweet corn, beans, cucumbers and tomatoes. To break up the rows of crops, we had planted some flower beds here and there. In one, we were growing Kochia, now called Burning Bush or Evergreen Burning Bush in the seed cata logs. It grows about three or four feet tall and has soft, green, feathery foliage. It does look a lit tle bit like marijuana to the untrained observer. In fact, the variety of Kochia we planted had an exotic name — “Mexican Firebush” — because the foliage^ turns crimson in late fall. It was one of thpse “in” bedding plants o f the ’70s home gardening ren

aissance. “W hat’s that there?” Gov. Snelling asked. “Mexican Firebush,” the guys told him. “It’s a kind of ornamental plant.” “H m m m ,” said the Governor, who walked on, chat ting quietly with his state trooper bodyguard. After about 15 more minutes of crop inspection, the Governor circled back to eye the Mexican Firebush again. Clearly, he was a bit troubled. As a media-conscious officeseeker, perhaps he was mulling over a possible front-page head line screaming: “CONS GROW POT O N STATE LAND IN SNELLING D O -G O O D ER PROGRAM.” That wouldn’t be cool. So he and the trooper held court in front of the Kochia bed once more. “W hat are these plants again?” Snelling queried, clearly puzzled by this lush bed of feathery, narrow-leafed, threefoot-tall plants with no obvious culinary purpose. “Mexican Firebush,” the guys replied, all smiles. Although he could have ordered the crew to plow down every single plant, the guv let it go. Maybe he believed the inmates, or perhaps he thought, standing there rubbing his chin and staring at the plants, that if they could fool a state trooper from two feet away, more power to ’em. And he had a busy sched ule to keep. “So long, boys,” he said cheerfully. “You’re doing great work here. And when you get out, do something good with your lives and don’t come back here, no matter how good this sweet earn is.” Today you can buy 100 seeds of Kochia for about $1.50. I know a store in Burlington that sells it, but I’m not saying where. I’ve already made up my mind not to plant it anymore. It s too consistent in color, shape and texture with a certain illegal crop that once was legal. I prefer the sound of songbirds to helicopter blades chopping over my home stead, followed by authoritative raps on my porch door... ®

only three months on board. The position will not be filled. Lafayette is a former state rep from Burlington. She finished seventh, just out of the money, in last November’s Chittenden County state senate race. According to Lafayette, as well as House Democrat leader Rep. John Tracy and PAC chairman Allan Bjerko, the newly formed PAC was unable to raise enough cash to meet organizational expenses. “What happens in this busi ness,” explained Bjerke, “is you spend money at the start to get the wheels in motion You hope that generates enough ir come to turn the corner. And we didn’t.” Mr. Bjerke, a Burlington attorney, is a close friend and for mer seatmate of John-John’s. “We hired Karen,” Bjerke told Seven Days,'“and brought her on as executive director with a pri mary responsibility for fundrais ing. We had a business plan and we followed it as well as we could until it became obvious we could n’t carry the overhead ” In addition to Lafayette’s $3000-per-month salary, the PAC also hired Ethan R e a d y, highly regarded campaign whiz and son of State Auditor E liz a b e th R e a d y, at $2000 per month. Mr. Ready, who inherited his mom’s political genes, remains on board and answered the phone Monday at the PAC’s $600-a-month Elm Street office in Montpeculiar. According to Bjerke and Tracy, the office will be closed down shortly, and Mr. Ready will move to space at the Democrat Party headquarters. In a joint interview with Seven Days, Tracy and Bjerke explained they’d attempted to get an earlierthan-usual start in the current election cycle. “We tried to do something different,” said Bjerke. “The for mer model was to sit back, raise a lot of money and then blow your wad in the campaign.” The “new model,” he said, called for “set ting up a more full-time presence, and we did that very aggressively.” Leadership is always a hot seat, and it’s no different for Mr. Tracy. A successful Democrat House comeback in the 2002 election would make John-John the next Speaker of the House. Not surprisingly, the failure of the Tracy/Bjerke out-of-the-box game plan has sparked some grumbling in the ranks, though no Democrat is willing to go public with criticism of their leader just yet. During the session, when Squeaker Freed and his GOP Christian crusaders ran the House, some Democrats didn’t think Tracy fought hard enough and often enough against the new Republican regime. Others note that House Democrats have taken it on the chin in two successive elections, with Tracy on the point. In 1998, Democrat leader Paul CillO, an architect of Act 60, lost his seat. Tracy replaced him as the new leader of a shrinking majority. In 2000, Republicans won the majority and Speaker Obuchowskf1became a backbencher, leav.-

ing John-John alone at the top of the House Democratic food chain. Other than his co-sponsor ship of a medical marijuana bill that went nowhere, Tracy, as minority leader, demonstrated a low-key, moderate style of leader ship. Mr. Tracy described the depar ture of Ms. Lafayette and the scal ing back of the House Democrat PAC’s ambitious business plan as “an early-course correction.” Not to worry, eh? The finish line’s still a long way off.

Speaking of Chainsaw —

Rookie Auditor Elizabeth Ready of Lincoln has added the former editor of Vermont Times to her talented staff. Shay Totten, who wrote for The Burlington Free Press for a couple years before moving to the editorship of Vermont Times in 1995, starts this month as an “executive assistant” to Queen Elizabeth. (And since Mr. Totten departed Vermont Times, the weekly’s content has deteriorated dramatically.) Once a protege of Gov. . Madeleine Kunin, Chainsaw Liz of Lincoln served 12 years in the Vermont Senate before winning her first statewide race last fall. Absolutely no one thinks auditor of accounts is Ms. Ready’s final political resting place. Chainsaw’s one tough of mare who loves to race.

Dean Supports Bush? — When it comes to the current political battle in Washington over the patients’ bill of rights, President George W. Bush and Vermont Gov. Howard Dean M.D. are on the same page. Dubya doesn’t like the bill’s provisions that make it easier for patients to take their HMOs to court. Ho-Ho agrees wholeheartedly. Very presidential of him, eh? Dean told reporters at his recent weekly press pow-wow that had he been in the U.S. Senate last month, he would have voted against the version of the patients’ bill of rights that passed with solid Democratic support. Interesting.

Dubya’s Favorite Vermonter —

Just when you thought the White House had totally written off Vermont, guess who gets a special invitation to represent the United States of America at Saturday’s inauguration of Alejandro Toledo as the new president of Peru? Skip Vallee of South Burlington left Friday from Andrews Air Force Base in a small government jet along with U.S. Trade Representative Robert Zoellick, U.S. Sen. Lincoln Chaffee of Rhode Island, officials from the state department and the National Security Council and Dubya’s good buddy from Texas, Tony Garza. Gasoline Vallee told Seven Days he got to meet the new Peruvian president, ride in the big motorcade and rub shoulders at the reception with Shimon Peres, former Prime Minister of Israel. Not bad for a Vermont guy with a small chain of gas stations. “It was a great day for democ racy,” said the Skipster. Hmm. Skip Vallee — Secretary of Gasoline? ®

Brody notes some individuals have already stepped forward to help 242. “I’m optimistic things will work out,” he says. “O ne way or another, it’s my intention to keep the place open as a venue,” agrees Clavelle. “But it will have to operate within a bud get.”

supporters o f 242 Main ought to be aware that the Burlington teen cen ter and all-ages music venue is in trouble. N ot so much that it’s going to fold tomorrow, but enough to issue an S.O.S. Last week Mayor Peter C lavelle met with 242 man agers Simon Brody and Richard Bailey and their Parks & Rec over seers to discuss a serious budget deficit. The recent Monsterfest punk festival, ironically intended as a fundraiser for 242, lost money. Beyond that event, however, fundraising simply hasn’t met expec tations, Clavelle notes, despite the best intentions o f numerous benefit concerts. And programming at 242 runs at a deficit even though the city donates the space free of charge and contributes $20,000 to its tar get $63,000 annual budget. “We should be able to provide a venue for young people to play without spending tens of thousands of dol lars a year,” says Clavelle. He has given Parks & Rec two weeks to consider recommendations for how they intend to handle the financial exigency. In fact, informs Brody, he and Bailey had a discussion with Parks

& Rec, and 242 s board, and brought a proposal of their own to the meeting with the Mayor. In essence it includes a substantial pay cut for the two managers, with Brody’s salary strictly raised through live music events and other fundraising. He concedes that unex pected expenses for Monsterfest — mostly having to do with measures taken for safety and security — made the difference between break ing even and going in the hole, but notes the smooth and nearly prob lem-free operation of the three-day punk festival raised 242’s visibility in the community. “The Mayor and people in Parks & Rec are hesitant to not call the event a success because a lot of peo ple came, from all over the world, and had a good time and were very excited about it,” says Brody. “It was a really ambitious thing and I think we did a good job.” He believes the center will be more successful at petitioning philanthropic organiza- * tions now, but is planning a regular, perhaps weekly, benefit concert at 242 just in case. He also wants to rent out the space to other groups more often — “very reasonable rates!” he pitches — and ask present users of the

SAVING GRACE? Simon Brody has had better luck on the road lately than with his day job at 242 Main. His band, Drowningman, just * returned from a successful five-week tour — its final and highlight gig was at the Hess Fest in Cleveland — that actually put a little money in their pockets. And Drowningman are going to be on TV, though unfortu nately not in concert. After a show in Ventura, California, they were extras “heckling people trying to learn how to skateboard,” for an episode of “Blind Date,” Brody says. “So in the fall we’ll be on national television standing around being idiots.” Could be worse. The really good news is a brand-new disc, entitled Drowning man Still Loves You, and a showcase at CMJ in September. PHISH HEADINESS While not every

thing Phish touches turns to gold, their imprimatur sure doesn’t hurt the fortunes of any other act that gets it. Offshoots such as Jon Fishman’s Pork Tornado (which plays Metronome this Wednesday), or any number of musical “friends of Phish” have bene fited from rhe association. And as far as I can tell, the piscine pals are happy to help. Just a little ironic, though, is the fact that Trey AnaStasiO is helping one of his

favorite bands make a splash leaving the puddle. The Unknown Blues Band is opening for his current tour ing lineup this Sunday at SPAC in Saratoga Springs, New York. “He’s been a huge supporter of the band,” explains UBB keyboardist Chuck Eller. “We played his wedding.” Anastasio reportedly was enthused about moving to Burlington way back when after seeing UBB and Big Joe Burrell shake the walls at H unt’s. “He thought, ‘Boy, if there were bands playing like this, I want to live here,” Eller says. O ne member of Anastasio’s tour ing band, in fact, is UBB bassist Tony M arkellis. W hen Eller informed Anastasio that for the first time Markellis’ two jobs were in conflict, the Redheaded O ne offered UBB an opening slot on the last nine dates of his tour. “But once the reality of dragging around a whole blues band hit, he decided to have us just do the last gig of the tour,” Eller says> This fall, “when things are kind of dead,” UBB will throw a few official going-away gigs and call their 22 years together a wrap. Stay tuned for word on those last hurrahs from a great Vermont blues band. SINGLE TRACKS Burlington’s newest venue, The Waiting Room, opens this Friday at 156 St. Paul St., giving itself one day to show off the handsome decor and its four-star-cred chef before introducing live music on Saturday. Boston’s Brian Gottesman Band inaugurate the space Saturday night. After five years at The Point, DJ Kate Bradley is leaving this m onth for Pittsburgh, where she’ll work for another non-commercial, AAA station, WYEP We’ll miss that husky alto, Kate! Good luck. @

BURNING S PEAR LOST IN THE LOOP (Green Linnet Records, CD) — It’s dangerous to use the grandest superlatives when describing the abilities of musicians — words like “best” and “technically perfect” immedi ately send everyone running to identify and then justi fy their own personal favorites. After you take tech nique into consideration, though, individual taste plays a big part. Trying to rank the fields of fine fid dlers — even just the ones who are still alive, never mind legends like Michael Coleman and Jean Carignan — is a futile undertaking. But if I could get front-row seats to a performance by any living fiddler in the world, I would very respectfully pass by Kevin Burke, Tommy Peoples, Natalie MacMaster, Frankie Gavin, Johnny Cunningham and even the venerable Sean Keane to bask in the music of Liz Carroll. Carroll, now in her mid-forties, was born in Chicago of native Irish parents, and has been immersed in Irish traditional music since she was very young. She’s won tons o f awards for her fiddling, the most recent “Traditional Artist o f Year for 2001” by the Irish Echo. W hat makes Carroll stand out is her incredibly soft touch, her impeccable and driving rhythmic technique, and compositional skills. W hat else could you ask for? W ith Lost in the Loop — her first solo recording in more than a decade — Carroll has boldly released a “traditional music” album full o f original composi LIZ CARROLL,

tions. And it all sounds so right. “The Champaign Jig Goes to Columbia” is a timeless jig. “See It There” is a slow reel that could just as easily have been penned in Sligo in the 1870s. “The Golden Legs” is another reel, matched up here with a classic called “The Flogging Reel.” Hearing the traditional tune alongside the new composition really shows off Carroll’s composing. Lost in the Loop was produced by Solas frontman Seamus Egan, who has the good taste to ensure that all accompaniment on this recording is understated, and that the guitar backup, whether played by John Doyle, Zan McLeod or Carroll’s old Trian bandmare Daithi Sproule, serves only to provide a solid framework on which she can build her graceful and often breathtaking melody lines. Carroll will headline at the Champlain Valley Folk Festival this weekend with topnotch guitarist Jim DeWan. See her if you can. She’s one of the best! — Robert Resnik

BAD JU JU (selfreleased, CD) — On her first solo release, Bad Ju Ju, Jenn Karson proves that there is indeed life after Zola Turn. Back with a fresh, more laid-back sound than in her previous band, Karson seems at ease in her solo shoes. Packing 10 strong songs into 44 minutes, Karson’s development as a songwriter and a singer is evident. “Isle Blue” kicks off like a sultry cowboy stroll, showcasing Karson’s strong, confident vocals, packaged with a solid rhythm section that perfectly comple ments her thoughtful lyrics. I never would have thought to characterize this singer as badass, but maybe she is. I get the sense she’s not trying to prove anything to anybody this time around, instead spin ning vaguely cynical tunes with a “sick of the bullshit” ’tude. The mood fits well, giving the whole record a world-worn, toughened Kristen Hersch-y feel. “This Can’t Be You” is one of the strongest cuts here, with an especially welcome guest cello part by Construction Joe’s Nelson Caldwell, underpinning a rueful sorrow. Maybe there’s a PJ Harvey thing going on here as well, though less aggressive. Karson has sung songs of betrayal and let-down before, but this time around she just doesn’t seem as surprised, nor as fazed, by it all. Her mature matter-of-factness lends JENN KARSON & BAD JU JU,

her a sense of power rather than woundedness. I can’t get over how commanding Karson’s vocals are, and she has stepped up to the plate with strong songs that match her performance. Another highlight is “001,” an up tempo kiss-off that includes a few chords and guitar lines reminiscent of an ex-boyfriend’s ex-Burlington band, adding a bit more punch to the punch lines. “Artroom Records” packs in some juicy acoustic chords for a lower-key reminiscence. In “Monster,” Karson revisits old-school Zola material, dabbling in witchcraft and relation ships, but the song drives with a solid underpinning provided by guitarist Eri Sonada, bassist Aram Bedrosian and the ever-presenr Shawn Roberts on drums. This band works well together, with strong transitions and solid hooks. Zola Turn ar one point was branded as sort of “gothic-pop,” but that’s not where this record goes. Bad Ju Ju has a seriousness, moodiness, even some darkness, but it comes across as pure, jaded, adult introspection, curiously devoid of bitterness. Aurally, this CD is a pleasant, engaging listen, rocking without really raising its voice, as it were. Bad Ju Ju may have a bad attitude, but it sounds like a positive statement of strength. — Colin Clary

A FEW ABSTRACT LANDSCAPES, paint

n 1991 the Soviet Union was teetering,

Bill Clinton lived in Little Rock, no one had heard of the Internet, and Joan Furchgott and Brad Sourdiffe opened their gallery and frame shop in Shelburne. There were several other galleries in the area, but Passepartout, Integrity Arts, The Millstone Gallery, Webb & Parsons Main Street Gallery and others from that period no longer exist. Furchgott Sourdiffe still does, and that feat “Western Storm,” alone make its current exhibition, “In Celebration: a group show commemorating a decade of art,” noteworthy. But it is also an excel lent show presenting work by 15 of the gallery’s most established artists. Landscapes are a staple for Furchgott Sourdiffe, but these are not simple-minded, senti mental idylls. The landscapes in this show are sophisticated abstractions based on colors and forms found in the natural environment. Arlene Targan’s monoprint, “Sunset on the Lake,” captures a burning sort of evening a la Edvard Munch. The sun is a shimmering disk casting fire on the pale blue water, and Targans sky has a greenish cast above a rolling horizon of purple hills. Julian Sheres also uses the land scape as a departure point, rather than as an end in itself; his “Surf” is a very loose interpretation of the subject. Sheres has scumbled thin layers of cool color over warm as he constructed a vertical composition that moves toward his high horizon line. Earthy colors in the bottom third of the canvas are disrupted by chartreuse brushstrokes, just as shreds of orange underpainting remain beneath the pale cerulean sky. “Surf” is fairly calm, but it has underlying tension. Two large pastels by Virginia McNeice also contain complex sequences of layering beneath their surfaces. But technical complexity is bal anced by compositional simplicity in her works. “Russian Olive” focuses on a big, scribbly tree standing in front of a tenebrous forest of deep greens. The calligraphic tangle of lines in the olive tree have little visual competition. “Between the Trees” is ostensibly a little building with a gray roof situated between two stands of trees. But the heavens modulate from dark to light across the scene, and a reddish-peach glow hovers above the trees. Is this sunset or sunrise? Either way, “Between the Trees” is a portrait of transi tion. There are also non-landscape-based works in this show, including several whimsical watercolors of Hal Mayforth. His cartoons have appeared in The Wall Street Journal, Country Living, The New ' Yorker and other major publications. Mayforths

forms often have the delicacy of insects. The fig ures of “Trio” are half pictograph and half Paul Klee. Their lines tremble with varied weights, and they float on a diagonal axis through deep blue space. One of his little creatures seems to have antennae, another is shaped like a propeller blade, the third is more of a geometric symbol -v than actual figure. f Mayforth is also a master of patterning, and “Trio” is enlivened I by dots, dashes, swirls. “New Skete #2,” by Harry Rich, is a relatively large-scale, nonobjective acrylic painting. Three uni form waves of bright hues — turquoise, orange and red — are contained by darkervalued vertical bands on the right side of the piece. The bright colors are restated on the left side within a series of curling shapes, and a twotoned rectangle sepa rates the two halves. In Rich’s nearly square can vas, the shapes within the piece are carefully bal anced to keep it from getting too static. , ^ Barbara Wagner has been working with the forms of gourds and hollowed out calabashes recently. Her oil paintings, the “G Series,” use semi-transparent layers as she builds ethereal abstractions based upon the shapes and colors of gourds. Her vessels are sparsely colored with simi larly thin paint. Wagner gouges, scrapes and • draws on the surfaces. She also uses stringy Pakistani sea grass to tie stones and other small objects onto them. Such elements contrast with the smoothness of the gourd surfaces. ■ Ten years Is a long time in the art business.

SEVEN DAYS

august 1, 2001

GORILLA WARFARE Roth and Wahlberg face off in the latest — and lamest — from Tim Burton.

PLANET OF THE APES*1/2 You’re probably wondering what happened to talented director Tim Burton. Specifically, what happened to his talent. I have a theory. I had lots of time to work on it while sitting through his lat est bloated, kitschy and overlong self-indulgence. You know how some actors “become” their characters while making a film? We’ve all read about these method heads who walk around in character between scenes and, in some cases, even off the set. Well, my theory is that when he was making his last really good movie, 1994’s Ed Wood, Burton identified so closely with his subject that he took on the artistic character of Wood, generally regarded as the worst director who ever lived, and has been unable to snap out of it ever since. As evidence I offer the films he’s made since then, the truly terrible Mars Attacks!, the slow, pointless and forgettable Sleepy Hollow and now this truly terrible, slow, pointless and forgettable update of the 1967 classic, Planet o f the Apes. In reality, though, even Ed Wood would’ve had a tough time going through $100 million and com ing away with a picture this witlessly vapid and juvenile. How does it blow? Let me count the ways: First, if you’re going to do a remake, I say do a remake. These “loosely based on,” “inspired by” and “update” deals drive me nuts. They’re usually just an excuse for a studio to cash in on some highly recognizable title it owns the rights to without hav ing to meet the challenge of making a new version with the same level of artistry or meatiness. In this case, Twentieth Century Fox basically appears to have handed Burton a blank check and the name of one of film history’s most popular franchises, sug gested that his movie have something to do with talking monkeys, and then left him without adult supervision. Burton calls his latest a “reimagining.” T hat’s about as imaginative as things get. Like the origi nal, it’s based on the novel by Pierre Boulle. Burtons reinterpretation, however, trims the num ber of American astronauts who land on a faraway planet dominated by apes to just one — Mark Wahlberg — instead of the original four. It also reduces the multi-layered narrative structure o f the original Film to a slapdash road trip. Wahlberg fol lows a homing beacon he hopes will lead to a res cue vessel while accompanied by an assortment of fellow humans and friendly apes, one of whom —

played by Helena Bonham Carter — continually spouts politically correct platitudes about the equal ity of the human species. She’s supposed to be saintly, I guess, but she’s a broken record and a wicked pain in the butt. Tim Roth suits up as General Thade, a hateful, power-hungry ape with other ideas about how humans should be treated. Well, only one idea, actually: that the planet should be cleansed of them entirely. Along with his legions, he embarks on a mission of state-sanctioned extermination. Since the Homo sapiens are disorganized, mostly enslaved, unarmed and scantily clad, the whole operation should’ve taken no more than a few minutes — an hour, tops. Burton pads his picture with so many close-ups of Thade snarling and so many sequences with monkeys doing these ludicrously fake-looking wire jumps, the ape army just barely catches up with the defenders of the human race as -the film winds down to its closing moments. To be fair, there are a handful of mildly amus ing moments along the way, almost all of them provided by Paul Giamatti in the role of a cowardly ape slave trader. And the monkey makeup is more lifelike than that worn by Roddy McDowall and his buddies 34 years ago. O f course, that has more to do with the passage of time than the artistry of Tim Burton. The film actually has three surprise endings. The first one — what Wahlberg finds at the other end of that beacon — is relatively logical and semientertaining. The second — what drops out of the sky and inspires the monkeys and humans to con sider coming together in perfect harmony — is corny and makes little sense. The third, which I can’t tell you, easily ranks as the stupidest in movie history. I’m not kidding, Ed Wood never came up with anything half as lame. The MPAA routinely compels filmmakers to trim scenes because they’re too violent or too sexu ally graphic. Maybe it should do the same when they’re too stupid. Just a thought. Burton clearly hoped to outdo the legendary last-minute jolt of the original when Charlton Heston comes across the Statue o f Liberty protrud ing from futuristic beachfront property. All he suc ceeds in doing, though, is reminding us that, in today’s Hollywood, they don’t even remake them like they used to. ®

what the folk?

Tom Paxton got more applause than Joe Cocker, The Who, the Band or Bob Dylan from 200,000 young people on the Isle of Wight in August 1969. Response to the folk troubadour known for “Ramblin’ Boy” and “The Last Thing On My Mind” was a testament to the timeless appeal of acoustic music, which will be bountiful in Burlington this weekend as top talent assembles to sing, pick, pluck, strum and blow. As evidenced by the legendary Odetta at the Flynn and some 36 acts — including Paxton — in the annual Champlain Valley Folk Festival, folk music taps world history as it reinvents itself. With more than half a century of signing under her ielt, Odetta is a venerable purveyor of American roots music. Now in her early seventies, the Alabama natives been around long enough to influence an impressive list of younger artists w ith h e r p o w e rfu l v oice.

Dear Cecil. M y question is, the song “Lady Marmalade, ” what are they say ing,? Is it in another language, or what? — Thanx, Kandy :o) No prob, Kandy. Although you should realize that in some quarters your “emoticon” will be interpreted as “I’m a mouth breather.” Then again, a lot of emoticons can be taken in more than one way, such as ;-) (I am afflicted with a severe twitch), :-X (I’ve been kidnapped and stuffed in a trunk), and l-( (My name is Igor). My personal favorite, however, is still :-) :-) :-) 8-), which means, “I don’t care if it’s the first day of school — look at all the COLORS!” As for your question, you realize this is taking me away from the Ebola research, but it’ll keep. I’m not sure what part of LaBelle’s 1975 disco hit “Lady Marmalade” you think is in a dif ferent language, but fet’s run through the candidates in order of likelihood: 1) Voulez vous couchez avec moi ce soir? It’s French, honey. It means, “Want to lie down with me this evening?” Lady Marmalade is a badass chick from the Moulin Rouge, see, and she has these needs. Lest you jump to an erroneous conclusion, the singer later informs us, “We independent women, some mistake us for whores/We say, Why spend mine, when I can spend yours?” 2) Giuchie giuchie ya ya da da (da da da)/Giuchie giuchie ya ya here, oh yeah (here ohooo yea yeah)/Mocca choca lata yaya. It’s Iroquois. “By the shores of Gitche Gumee/By the shining

Big-Sea-Water,” etc. Lady Marmalade is taking time out from a break through at any moment and start in on my hand. It was no flop in the sack to express solidarity with Native Americans. comfort to come back the next day and find that the bug had 3) Creole Lady Marmalade.. Maybe you didn’t need this part escaped from the bean by means of a perfectly circular hole and explained to you. But some people — I mention no names — was now on the loose. think the line is “Real old Lady Marmalade,” and I want to get 2) Actually, there was one thing worse: the scene in Pinocchio things cleared up at last. where Pinocchio and his buddies smoke, drink, engage in wanton destruction and then turn into donkeys. Saw it again a few years back, and it still made my skin crawl. Dear Cecil, 3) OK, the science. The bug inside the bean is a small gray I know that Mexican jum ping beans jum p because o f worms or critter known as the jumping bean moth, Cydia saltitans. The larvae inside, but what kind o f beans are they, and what kind o f bean is not a bean but a section o f a seed capsule from the jump worms? What happens to the worm? Does it hatch out as a bug or ing bean shrub, Sebastianapavoniana. (Some say Sebastiana moth or something, or what? palmieri. Whatever.) The mama moth deposits its eggs on the — Laura Clemons ovaries of this shrub, which grows on hillsides in the Mexican states of Sonora and Chihuahua and in Baja California. The eggs You’re thinking: “Boy, Cecil, really working hard today, aren’t hatch and the larvae bore into the seedlets and consume the seed you?” To which I reply, Come on — you never heard o f the lazy inside. According to the natural-history page Wayne’s Word days of summer? Here’s the sum total of what I know about (waynesword.palomar.edu/plaug97.htm), “the robust, yellowishMexican jumping beans: white larva” indulges in “the peculiar habit of throwing itself 1) As a kid I was completely creeped out by the thought of a forcibly from one wall to the other, thereby causing the jumping bean being eaten from the inside by a hungry bug that might movements of the capsule.” One explanation is that this helps scare away birds, but we might just as well credit the dawning realization on the part of the larva: “What the — ?! I’m inside a bean!” 4) Just so we’re clear on this, the larva doesn’t exit the bean until it has metamorphosed into a moth. Seems like a waste that it should go to all that trouble, only to turn into a stupid moth. Now you know how the ’rents felt after spending all that money to send you to art school only to have you wind up a CPA. 5) Mexican jumping beans are rarely sold as novelties in Mexico. . 6) A substantial portion of the world’s Mexican jumping beans emanates from one Mexican town, Alamos. {Alamo means cottonwood, by the way. Always wondered myself.) The locals supplement their income by harvesting the seed capsules from the surrounding slopes and listening for the rustling noise they make. The hills are alive, one enthusiast gushes, with the sound of brincadores (jumpers). Dunno about you, but I say: bleagh. — CECIL ADAMS

SEVEN DAYS

page 31b

August 2-8 li

ARIES (Mar. 21-Apr. 19):

< *

Here’s a great way to nurture your astrological potential: Plunk yourself down in New Orleans for a week. The Big Easy is elegant and eccentric, just as you’re primed to be. It knows how to party with a more relaxed intensity than most places, also reflecting your current needs. There’s a wealth o f flamboyant music, an unrepressed attitude towards the arts of pleasure and a sublimely obscene proliferation of lush flora: all of which is right in alignment with your soul’s mood. I don’t mean to say you can’t achieve these beatific states in your usual haunts. It’s just that I’d love for your teeming fertility and blooming beauty to feel totally at home. P.S. It’s a favorable time to seek out a fresh supply o f gris gris — what New Orleaners call good luck charms.

TAURUS

(Apr. 20-May 20): August is Home Improvement Month for you Tauruses. How should you celebrate? To begin, why don’t you throw out all the furniture and d&or that no longer reflect the style o f who you are now? Next, ask each member o f your household to stuff a suggestion box with uncensored notions about how to ratchet up the levels of domestic bliss. Third, create your own personal Stonehenge in the backyard or a goofy holy shrine in the living room. Fourth, vow to live without any TV whatsoever for four weeks and brainstorm about alterna tive ways to feed your imagination. Fifth, invite some farfetched guests over who will inject ripe surprises into the spirit of your hearth.

GEMINI

(May 21-June 20): “Dear Dr. Mystery: Please answer these four questions. 1. Will chronic ambiguity really make me a smarter person? 2. How can I be myself when I’m not even sure who I am? 3. Does a three-and-a-half leaf clover mean good luck or bad luck? 4. Should I bide my time and keep my options

open or should I grab the first halfway decent offer that comes along? — Jumpy Gemini.” Dear Jumpy: Here are my Zen answers to your questions: 1. Maybe. 2. Follow your nose. 3. Dumb luck. 4. Both. Love, Dr. Mystery.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): I just visited New Orleans to attend a convention of alternative newsweeklies, many o f which publish this col umn. One of my best adventures came courtesy o f the Advice Goddess, alias Amy Alkon. She dragged me away from a boring conversation about business and shanghaied me to Chi-wa-wa Ga-ga, a funky specialty store for small dogs. There I provided expert fashion advice as she pur chased a red sequined bikini for her Yorkshire terrier. Normally, I wouldn’t have been caught dead doing such a thing. And yet its delightful daffiness taught me a precious secret that’s too private to reveal here. I mention this, Cancerian, because the astrological omens strongly suggest you should arrange to have at least three experi ences like mine in the coming week.

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22): I predict that you will soon figure out exactly what you have to do to get your obsessions to work for you rather than against you. And that will change everything forever. I’m seri ous. You will feel as if you have been reborn into a new world. Passions that have all too often run you ragged, that have consistently divert ed you into chaotic dead ends, will offer themselves up as fuel for your worthiest dreams. Congratulations in advance, Leo.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): In the Gulf o f Mexico, the most bom bastic tropical storms occur from

August to October. During this year’s peak season, though, the city of New Orleans will have a unique defense. That’s because voodoo priestess Sallie Ann Glassman recendy conducted a public Hurricane Protecrion Ritual. Aided by a supporting cast of prayer ful devotees, she invoked supernatural help in the form of both Ezili Danto, a voodoo spirit, and Our Lady of Prompt Succor. The petitioners pre sented Our Lady with her favorite bribes, flowers and jewelry, while offering Danto her special treats, including rum, spicy black beans, unfiltered cigarettes and dolls dressed in calico prints. I mention this, Virgo, because it is now your psychic equivalent o f hurricane season. I sug gest you carry out a personal ritual modeled after Glassman’s.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22): The guardians o f conventional wisdom might have difficulty with your cre ative and forceful behavior in the coming days, even if you wheel and deal in a way that will ultimately ben efit everyone. They may criticize you if you boldly follow your piquant intuitions without consulting those associates of yours who are sleepwalk ing through their lives. Here’s my advice: Care nothing for what they think. Very soon you’ll be living proof that there are ethical shortcuts to success.

SCORPIO

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21): If I could deliver an adventurepacked oracle, would you agree to do what I ask of you? Here’s what I can offer: wrestles with tricky angels, games of hide-and-seek that acciden tally lead you to strange treasure, fun emergencies with tests that inspire you to love yourself better and explo rations of a sanctuary with metaphor ical resemblances to an eagle’s aerie.

QUARIUS

All I require in return for these amazements, Scorpio, is that you treat everyone you encounter, includ ing yourself, with more compassion than you’ve ever summoned in your life.

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21): In The Mists o f Avalon, Marion Zimmer Bradley’s retelling of the original Camelot myth, she por trays King Arthur as sympathetic to both the upstart Christian faith and the old Goddess religion. Many mod ern practitioners of voodoo take a comparable approach. They mix and match Catholic saints with the Lwa, spirits with origins in African tribal culture. Now that you’re in the thick of an exciting time for spiritual explo ration, Sagittarius, I urge you to bor row this hybrid attitude. Heed the whispers of righteous angels even as you give your heart to the serpent power.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22Jan. 19): Astrology and paganism have important affinities, like for instance an understanding that our personal rhythms are linked to the Earth’s yearly cycle. I bring this up because we have arrived at the holi day that witchy folks call Lammas, halfway between the summer solstice and fall equinox. For your tribe, this seasonal festival marks a time when deeper commitment becomes a must. Now please take this Lammas inven tory: What stands in the way of you diving deeper into the challenges that will make you wiser and more beauti ful? How can you energize your high est goals so you will be motivated to serve them with burning passion every day for a long time? Is there anything you can do to make your commitments more exciting?

(Jan. 20:eb. 18): Now and then I ask y readers how they have suc cessfully dealt with their own dark side. Since you’re in a phase when it’s crucial to do that work yourself, I’ll quote the provocative testimony of Sam Shepard (no rela tion to the famous playwright): “I talk back to the person in the mirror. He frightens me but cares for me. To restructure my difficult memories, I half-burn and cut up old pho tographs, then collage the fragments into new arrangements. I draw my shadow on a door so that I can stand next to him and ask questions, answering them from his perspective. This is fun.” I hope Sam’s tricks whet your appetite for deeper communion with your own confounding secrets, Aquarius. With the right approach, you can transform your inner sabo teur into a cagey ally.

PISCES

(Feb. 19-Mar, 20): Sometimes you make it hard for me to reach you. You seem to listen but don’t really. You secretly decide not to be influenced by anyone else but yourself. When you shut me out like that, I become a little stupid. My ora cles don’t flow. The magic between us withers. Please don’t do this now, Pisces. Don’t do it to yourself either, or to anyone who cares deeply about you. I understand that you need to insulate yourself from the people who mistakenly think they know what’s best for you. But your true allies need you right now as much as you need them. ®

Dear Lola, Whenever my boyfriend and I rent a movie together, he wants to see something really heavy and sad and awful. I tell him there’s enough unhappiness in the world already, sc why spend your free time making yourself miser able? He says that if you avoid the bummers all the time, you’re not really liv ing. He always ends up getting his way. Then I get sc depressed that I can barely even touch my popcorn, while he gets more and more keyed up. Afterwards, he’s always at his most passionate, while I’m no longer in the mood. Is there hope for u s?
