It wasn’t really embar­ rassing, it was just funny: They had matching American flag sweaters, and my dad had red, white and blue matching socks to go along with it.

— Devon Heath Store Manager, In Company Stowe

JEEZUM JIM CH O SE FAME Senator James Jeffords, little known outside of the State of Vermont, was facing probable obscurity at the end of his latest six-year term as a Republican Senator. He perceived a unique opportunity to seize his “ 15 min­ utes of fame” when, after the recent close national elections, the Senate was temporarily left in a 50/50 membership relation­ ship. Never mind this soul-search­ ing, anguished decision to leave the Republican party. He did it solely as a last chance to grab at fleeting fame. Whatever Republican policies he does not favor, he could have just voted no, as he has done many times in the past, and without switching parties. As a Republican who voted for Jeffords, I feel betrayed by his switch to be an Independent after serving barely six months as a Republican. In retrospect, if switching a party label while actively serving in the Senate is condoned by the Constitution, then certainly there must be moral and ethical restraints, else why haven’t other Senators done so before this?

L Y

Forget this so-called baloney of voting his conscience. The action of Jim Jeffords was immoral, unethical and born of last-ditch, greedy, personal ambi­ tion. — Alan B. Wright Westford

VEGGIE OM ISSION In a recent issue of Seven Days, you offered an informative review of area restaurants that provide a vegetarian menu [“Where’s the Tofu?” May 16]. I have been told by some of my vegetarian friends, though, that you neglected to mention a superb choice. The Five Spice Cafe, on lower Church Street (specializing in Asian cuisine), has one of the very best kitchens around. Even though I’m not a vegetarian, I truly appreciate its selection in this category, includ­ ing its absolutely outstanding veggie croquets. I’m sure you will want to correct this obvious over­ sight, for vegetarians and all peo­ ple who enjoy good restaurants deserve to be apprised of all the choices available to them. — Jim McHugh Burlington

My mom used to wear those ruffly, silky blouses from the ’80s with the big bow around the neck, and the pleats and cuffs that made it all poofy. Even at 6 I knew they were not OK.

those old credit card ads that told us how great it is to have the freedom of a credit card to fur­ ther our education? I wonder how VISA and MasterCard feel about being part of this conve­ nience scam? I wonder if they’re as angry about this rip-off as I am? Next time I think I’ll pay in pennies! I wonder how long it will take them to process that convenience? I can’t wait to say, “Process this!” — Phil Hammerslough Essex Junction

We’ll be there and we’ll be square.

— Jen Sebold Retail Clerk, Vermont Trading Co. Montpelier My mom was embar­ rassing in general. She was a radical hip­ pie, and we grew up in a conservative part of St. Louis. When she would pick us up from school, we would say, “Why can’t you just be normal?”

A SCAM OF CONVENIENCE It seems that once again UVM has found a way to make a little extra on students and their parents. This time it’s called a “convenience charge.” It goes like this: You try to pay your tuition with a credit card, but the Bursar’s office tells you they no longer handle credit cards. You have to go to the UVM Web page to pay. Once you’re at the Web page and filling out the information, there’s a lit­ tle note stating a “convenience charge” of $2.10 per $100 will be tacked onto your credit card bill for the privilege of using your card. When I called the Bursar’s office to find out about this charge and just who it was con­ venient for, I was told that it took the university too long to process credit cards. It took too much time and was too expen­ sive. Thus, it seems convenient for the university to charge you for the privilege of using their Web page to pay! Can you imag­ ine going to a store to pay for something and they tell you to go to their Web page for the privilege of getting charged extra? Gosh, what happened to

Grand Scheme of Things Thailand’s prime minister proposed fixing his country’s ail­ ing economy by turning the clocks ahead an hour. The change would put Thailand on the same time as Hong Kong, Singapore and Malaysia. “The economies of these three countries are in good health, and our time adjustment to them would benefit the Thai bourse, which will open and close at the same time as theirs,” said Thaksin Shinawatra, an electron­ ics billionaire who was elected by a landslide in January after promising to speed economic recovery.

Things That Go Kaboom Police investigating an explo­ sion at an electricity substation in Rock Forest, Quebec, concluded that a crow caused the blast by flying into it. Besides the remains of an electrocuted crow, officers reported finding a rucksack hid­ den at the scene containing “thousands and thousands of dol­ lars” believed to have been robbed from the Banque Nationale De Rock Forest. “Without the crow’s sacrifice,” police spokesperson Andre Lemire said, “we would never have recovered the money.” • Authorities in Muskegon, Michigan, blamed an explosion that blew part of a house off its foundation, started a fire that destroyed the building and dam­ aged two neighboring houses on the homeowner, whom they

accused of sniffing propane while smoking marijuana. They said Brian Miller Sr., 40, was in his first-floor bedroom with a 20pound propane cylinder — the type used for barbecuing but with a modified valve — when propane vapors were ignited after he lit up a joint. “If there was a charge for ignorance,” prosecutor Tony Tague said* “this would be appropriate.” • Australian police blew a hole in a dead whale to keep it from becoming an environmental haz­ ard and a danger to tourists. The carcass of the Southern Right whale had been off the coast of South Australia state for about two weeks. Television pictures showed great white sharks tearing chunks of flesh from the whale while sightseers in boats patted the sharks’ snouts and even climbed into the back of the whale as the sharks fed. People’s disregard for their own safety prompted state Environment Minister Iain Evans to propose regulations “to protect people too stupid to protect themselves.”

to the ground. One of the other suspects hit McGowan on the head with a gun, but all three men fled without taking any money. An off-duty detective heading for the store saw the sus­ pects running, followed them and got their license plate number. The three men were in custody within 45 minutes. A manager at the doughnut shop told the Chicago Tribune he couldn’t understand why someone would try to rob the shop because police officers often come in for coffee

Whom Can You Trust? An Akron couple who cam­ paigned to make Ohio’s rape laws tougher was accused of violating those laws by forcibly impregnat­ ing the woman’s teen-age daugh­ ter with a syringe containing her stepfather’s semen. The girl said she was 16 when her mother, Narda Goff, forced her to bear John Goff’s child because Narda Goff has multiple sclerosis and could no longer give birth. The daughter said the incident occurred shortly after the Goffs persuaded lawmakers to include penetration with any object as constituting rape. • Philadelphia police accused a city block captain of keeping drug pushers off his street so he could keep all the business for himself. Duane E. Coppage, 29, tipped off police about illegal activity and was known to have chased away robbers and drug dealers, but after he was caught in the act of selling drugs, he plead­ ed guilty. “Every time we would go into the neighborhood, he would always come forward and offer us information,” Lt. Michael J. Chitwood Jr. said. “He would always tell us how he kept * his eyes out for the kids.”

A dude do transforms a frumpy young man

S tylist /writer : A lexia B rue Makeover photographer: Matthew T horsen B efore and after photographer: J eremy Fortin ermont is a casual outdoor state, and Glenn Walter is a casual outdoor guy. Like most men in Burlington, Walter has had one comfort-inspired look that he wore day in and day out. How to describe this look? Let’s just say there are a lot of frumpy local guys wearing the male equivalent of maternity clothes — baggy, amorphous duds that make them look like goateed blobs. But fashion doesn’t have to hurt, and we set out to show Walter and other Vermont males that looking

V

good and being comfortable can be one and the same. This year, in the first-ever Seven Days Fall Fashion Makeover, we sent Walter out with a stylist and a pho­ tographer for an afternoon of retail therapy. Our mission: To find the perfect sporty, casual and formal outfits to complement our man’s laid-back style.

1. sport wear At Ski Rack we’re after a versatile, sporty outfit in which to stop traffic on the bike path, pick up veg­ gies at the farmers’ market or kick around the soccer ball. Here Walter tests the give on a pair of biking shoes, then slips on some Zoic shorts with interior nylon webbing. “I could play soccer all day in these,” he comments as he jumps up and down. “They definitely hold you in place.” Walter tests the claim of the wickable shirt. After a heart-thumping five-minute run on the treadmill, he confirms that the shirt does indeed wick sweat right off the skin. Ski Rack: Patagonia Electralight jacket in canary yellow; Zoic K-wick microfiber shirt; Zoic Vapour shorts; Specialized Rock Hopper shoes.

2. casual wear Glenn Walters natural good looks are hidden underneath his baggy clothes and shaggy haircut.

Glenn Walter Owner of Three Needs, Burlington The beach “Whatever’s at the outlets” January 2001 Six days ago Clothes with “good air flow” Sweaters, and dark stitching on light clothes “Fashion shouldn’t hurt.”

The key to a great casual look is investing in high-qual­ ity basics that easily mix and match. Here Walter examines himself in a black turtleneck and khaki pants. Even though he is decidedly “not a sweater guy” — because sweaters interfere with “air flow — he looks toned and svelte in this classic black-and-tan look. Roots: Eskimo Point turtleneck in black; Jimmy Carpenter pants in tobacco.

Black leather pants should be worn as casually as blue jeans. Moreover, they provide better protection against January winds than five pairs of longjohns. Not even an Arctic wind could penetrate the thick hide of these jean-style pants. Walter is open-minded enough to try them on. Most straight men aren’t. Here he’s telling us that the pants are too small. In fact, they’re at least one size too big. When you buy leather pants, they should fit like a second skin. They’ll “give” a full size during the first few weeks of wear. Leather Express: American Base leather pants, jean-style with five pockets.

3. formal wear It’s not that often that work or social life in Vermont calls for a suit, especially in Walters profession — he’s owned the Burlington watering hole Three Needs since 1995. But with inspiration from the Italian fashion dictum — own one fabu­ lous suit — we head to Michael Kehoe in search of the perfect one. How to find a suit in which you won’t be mistaken for your father or a banker? One word: microfiber. I cannot praise highly enough the style and functionality of this suit. Every man under 45 should own one. It’s a classic suit with an updated twist. Look great, ideal for traveling. Ball it up in a backpack, unroll it a week later and it won’t show a wrinkle. Here Gary Barrows II at Michael Kehoe fixes Walter’s tie. Lilac stripes in the tie subtly match the lilac shirt, which brings out Walter’s blue eyes. In this ensemble, no one would recognize him at Three Needs! Michael Kehoe, Kiethmoor Apparel microfiber suit; Robert Talbot shirt in lilac; Tino Cosma tie; Joseph Cole-Haan shoes.

4. grooming After you get the perfect clothes, you need the perfect haircut and a smooth shave. So we head over to The Men’s Room, a hair salon-arra-art gallery owned by Glenn Sautter. Walter hasn’t had his hair cut in eight months. This is the only nerve-wracking stop on our tour, because Walter is getting married in three weeks. Whichever haircut he ends up with will be with him for a lifetime of wedding portraits. Stacey Steinmetz, his fiancee, has also weighed in on the importance of this haircut. If he comes home with a bad one... well, we don’t want to think about it. We discuss different styling options. Long hair can look great on men; it’s more of a styling issue. Walter’s version of styling has been running a comb through wet hair.

A scalp massage relaxes Glenn before a potentially traumatic haircut.

Glenn Sautter and Glenn Walter see eye-to-eye on how to give the latter’s locks a bit of style.

A close shave with sweet-smelling Aveda products takes care of six days of stubble and reveals Walter’s handsome jaw line.

DO: • Own a well-cut, white, button-down shirt that looks great with 501s or a suit. • Spend more on a few well-made items than on a closetful of junk. • Invest in one fabulous suit. • Buy good shoes. • Wear tailored clothes that follow the contours of your body. • Tuck in long shirts. • Wax if you have a unibrow. While you’re at it, wax hairy backs, too. There is no shame in waxing, and intimates in your life will be silently grateful. • Get your hair cut at least every two months — whether you think it needs it or not.

D O N ’T: • Wear socks with sandals. • Dress like a Blockbuster employee. Instead of khakis and a blue oxford, substitute a highquality black T-shirt or a pressed white, but­ ton-down shirt. • Pierce your tongue or eyebrow or any other place where you wouldn’t want a woman to be similarly pierced. • Wear T-shirts with stupid slogans. • Douse yourself in cologne. • Wear pleated pants, unless you want to look overweight and middle-aged. • Wear shirts with large patterns reminiscent of tablecloths. » #:#' - * *•

At the end of an afternoon of clothes-hunting, I’m impressed with Walter’s shopping stamina and sartorial sophistication. He’s game to try on anything, and looks good in every outfit. One exception might be a Lycra cycling outfit Walter describes, as “wet-suit tight.” Not even Lance Armstrong could have pulled it off. Back at the photo studio for the “after” shot, Glenn moves differ­ ently in front of the camera than he did in his beachwear. In his clas­ sic, yet modern, microfiber suit he moves like a Rat Pack crooner from the ’50s. I want to hand him a dirty martini. He looks suave, sophisticated, debonair, a blonde Pierce Brosnan. “W hat do you think of your new look?” I ask. “I like it,” Walter says, both non-committal and enthusiastic. We discuss all the places he could wear a thousand-dollar ensemble — on his honeymoon, to temple, on weekend trips to Montreal or Boston. He’s still tentative, but when he has to return the suit — the Seven Days budget doesn’t include actually buying these clothes — it’s with obvious regret. I suspect he may slip back into Michael Kehoe and get it himself. T hat’s what any woman would do, anyway, if she looked that great in an outfit. ®

D o lled Burlington’s best-dressed man shares his couture culture By Susan Green hen Stephen Doll was only 3 , he loved wearing a particular black-whiteand-blue-plaid toddler outfit. “Its one of my earliest memories,” explains the 40-year-old co-owner of Burlington’s Doll-Anstadt Galley. “I’ve always been con­ scious of fashion.” And then there was that pair of dark green velvet pants, a much-appreciated Christmas pres­ ent when he was in seventh grade. “I wish I still had them,” Doll admits. Chatting about his passion for clothes on a recent morning much too hot for velvet, the deeply tanned Doll is looking comfort­ able in a pale-green, checked Italian linen shirt and brown cot­ ton Brooks Brothers slacks. “People who know me well understand that I dress for me. My body just wants to be hand­ somely bound. It starts in here,” he says, gesturing to his heart, \ “and works its way out.” As a teenager, the Philadelphia native hung out with a daring, artistic crowd. “I was never really ^ outlandish myself, but maybe I lived vicariously through them. I like what punkers are doing, for example. They have courage, even though it’s not for me.” Instead, he found early inspi­ ration in celebrities such as • Audrey Hepburn, Cary Grant and David Bowie. “I appreciated that

kind of style,” Doll recalls. “I love seeing African-American churchwomen with their hats and gloves. As long as people look put togeth­ er, I applaud them.” Doll is put together with a flair, some of which can be traced back to time spent in Europe’s two greatest fashion capitals. He studied art history in Rome dur­ ing the late 1980s, then lived in Paris for a few years, working at a tableware design firm as a liaison between artists and their clients. There he was given a dark-red

accompany them in relocating to Vermont. With a leafy courtyard outside and a rectangular Italian marble dining table within, his garden apartment next door to the gallery has the same understat­ ed elegance as its occupant’s wardrobe. “My whole life I always wanted a big walk-in closet, and now I have one,” Doll says, point­ ing to neatly organized sections for jackets, shirts and pants and shelves stacked with sweaters or “gym stuff.” While his collection is not ostentatious or overabundant, Doll does acknowledge a significant love of shop­ ping. “I don’t really need any other clothes, so it’s mostly when I see something I like. I probably do spend a size­ able part of my income, because I always try to buy quality. I might pay $100 fora shirt, but it will last for 20 years.” Doll has a simple credo: “You can never have enough white Oxford shirts, nice khaki pants, gray flannels, blue blazers or good pairs of jeans,” he surmises. “And every human being should own a black turtleneck sweater.” Although he patronizes a few local stores, such as Michael Kehoe and Filene’s, Doll’s biggest

Wearing something made by him, I feel like he’s still alive.” 1997, two Philadelphia neighbors — Jay and Ruby Anstadt — encouraged Doll to

sprees are generally reserved for -v Philly or Paris. “I don’t even read labels,” he says. “I’m interested in what it looks like and how it,. - ^ feels. I shop with my eyes anfy.my fingers.” Is this, then, a man who also squeezes vegetables in the super­ market? “Yes, I do,” admits Doll, whose day job as an administra­ tive assistant for the University of Vermont Center on Disabilities and Community Inclusion allows casual attire. “Where I work, this is dressed up,” he says of the chic duds selected for this humid August weekday. “At a nonprofit where I was once employed, a col­ league told me, ‘We like to be relaxed here.’ I didn’t understand why the way I dressed made him unrelaxed.” Vermont’s disdain for finery is a subject dear to Doll’s heart. “I hate people to judge the way I dress, so I don’t want to judge others. Sometimes, though, it’s really ridiculous. I recently went to dinner at the Inn at Shelburne Farms — a really beautiful place — and another man there was in frayed shorts and a T-shirt that had seen better days. He looked like a dish rag.” Doll dons suits when dining out and for gallery openings, but otherwise has compromised a bit with his surroundings. “Living in Burlington has made me kind of a little more casual. I used to wear ties every day.” It’s little wonder Doll has lived

, an existence somewhat apart from the crowd. “Ever since high school, people called me ‘Mr. | GQ,'” he says, referring to the : upscale men’s .magazine. “I don’t '.even read it.” " V His nonconformist approach has meant that “I’m attracted to people who are different, to eso­ teric music and films. I’m off the beaten path, I guess.” That designation might also apply to how he cares for his apparel. “I don’t wash anything except my underwear, socks and gym stuff,” Doll points out. “I only dry-clean my clothes. It’s expensive, but I could never get them to look like this otherwise.” He may squeeze vegetables, but Doll has no intention of ever picking up a steam iron. These days he yearns for a pair of suede pants — there are already suede shirts and shoes in his closet. Because of his no­ laundering rule, the new wash­ able suedes hold no special allure. You could never go wrong giving him something in cashmere, a favorite fabric. He’s partial to dark colors and earth tones, even mustard and ochre. Once, though, that palette proved prob­ lematic: “I’d always wanted to be a blonde,” Doll says — his natu­ rally brown locks are now tinged with gray at the temples. “For my 38th birthday, I had my hair dyed platinum. Big mistake. None of my clothes went with it.” ®

C r a f t P r o d u c e r s F e s tiv a l R e tu rn s t o t h e W a t e r f r o n t ! he Burlington waterfront is the site this weekend for a highly entertaining art, craft, food and music festival. Starting at 10:00 Friday, Saturday and Sunday, this fabulous weekend includes won­ derful food, entertainment by Waldo Woodhead, music by Virtual Consort and Stephen Kiernan’s Original six and twelve string guitar, as well as wine tasting workshops by Wine Works (see below).

Robert Lyons Photography Robert Lyons is a professional photogra­ pher living in Vermont’s Northeast Kingdom, a wonderful area for photogra­ phy. Robert is also a pilot, so he gets the chance to see all this beauty from a differ­ ent perspective. Robert is a landscape photographer at heart. “The usual clutter of ‘aerial pho­ tography’ has never appealed to me,” he says. “I don’t like rooftops and treetops. But the appeal of the view that one gets from aloft the idea that I have tried to capture with my work. The greatest com­ pliment that someone can give me is when they ask, ‘Where did you take this from?’ That’s when I know that I’ve accomplished my objective...That is, to get that unique lofty perspective without being ‘overtly aerial.”’ All of Robert’s images are taken with a large-format panoramic camera coupled with a gyro-stabilizer. The large 6 x 17 centimeter negatives produced by this camera yield an impressive amount of detail, and result in razor-sharp images chock-full of detail and immersed in color. Roberts wife Jane then hand-paints and hand-frames the photographs. They then sell their photography at selected retail shops, craft shows, from their home, and even on the internet. “Over the last decade I’ve been look-

he Waldo & Woodhead show could be described as a mixture of physical comedy (some low-brow with high flying objects thrown in), masterful juggling, eclectic music, and one guaranteed to amuse, delight, and engage any audience. Waldo & Woodhead bring with them an arsenal of tricks, juggling props and a bouquet of musical instruments.

T

Waldo (aka Paul Burke) & Woodhead (aka Woody Keppel) have performed together for 14 years at festivals and in theatres around the world on six continents. Selected appearances include: the Summer Olympics in Barcelona, Spain, the International Childrens Festival in Hong Kong, The Wintergarten in Berlin, Germany, Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, New York City’s Lincoln Center, and at Tanglewood in Lenox, MA. “Frantic, frenzied, frenetic, funny, fantastic - these are just a few words that describe the madcap Waldo & Woodhead Show,” according to a review in the Dunkirk-Fredonia (NY) Evening Observer. “For a night of unforgetable outrageous comedy, take the whole family.” Waldo is an impeccable juggler, display­ ing enormous dexterity with casual ease, while the bumbling Woodhead weaves a tapestry of kooky music, slapstick and general chaos with the uncertain danger of a tornado. Their signature grand finale is a one of a kind, frenzied, frenetic jug­ gling montage incorporating a variety of absurd objects, (chair, guitar, bird cage, horn, umbrella, rubber chicken, TV, etc.) Never two shows the same; expect the unexpected.

Katharine Montstream is a painter from Burlington, Vermont. She paints oils and watercolors on location and at her studio in historic Union Station on Lake Champlain.» Katharine graduated with an AA in Liberal Arts from Green Mountain College in Poultney, Vermont and a BS in Sociology from the University of Colorado at Boulder. After college, she moved back east to Burlington and worked as a sailmaker and waitress while taking painting classes from Lawrence C. Goldsmith. This artist, with his loose and expressive style, was an enormous influence on her work. Her first solo show was in 1988. Katharine and her husband also mar­ ket many of her paintings in greeting card and print form for their company, Montstream Cardworks. They do at least one or two images a year for the National Wildlife catalog, and their cards can be found at the National Museum of Women in the Arts gift shop in Washington, D.C. She designed Farm Aid’s 2000 calendar and backdrop for its concert stage that featured Willie Nelson, John Mellencamp and other noted musi­ cians. “I like to think that I push puddles of color around the paper. Unpredictable things happen when you drop paint onto

a wet piece of paper, and from there you can hope for some interesting results,” she says. “Burlington and its surrounding countryside has been a constant pleasure and source of inspiration.” When not painting, she can be found playing with her three children, skiing or coaching soccer.

John Brickels A visual arts graduate of the University of Akron in Ohio, in 1993 John Brickies was commissioned by the State of Vermont to create Vermont barn sculp­ tures, which are permanently installed in the General Services Building in Middlesex. Earlier, the City of San Antonio commissioned John to produce sculptures of Spanish Missions, which were presented to President George Bush, Pope John Paul II, Queen Elizabeth, Prince Charles, and King Juan Carlos of Spain. John received “Award of Excellence” from Tracy Bashkoff, curator at the Guggenheim Museum in 1998. “Observing weathered architecture, be

it urban row house or country barn, I strive to sculpt exciting and poignant examples of buildings that are threedimensionally compelling and subtly nar­ rative,” says John of his art. “I am partic­ ularly inspired by barns and buildings that exhibit the effects of time, weather, gravity, and the hand of man, be it bane­ ful or benevolent.”

W alter Stanley: Brookside Woodworking Walter Stanley’s furniture is entirely hand-made, one at a time. There are no automated processes or subbed-out parts. Everything is assembled with tra­ ditional, time-honored joinery, which means you are making an investment in the future. Your great-great-grandchil­ dren will get as much pleasure in your furniture as you. Walter was born and raised in Vermont. While cultivating a lifelong interest in woodworking, he held many other jobs, from musician to ski instruc­ tor and everything in between. “Nothing else gives me the joy and satisfaction of building furniture, by hand, one piece at a time. The smell of freshly cut cherry, the feel of finely sand­ ed and finished maple, the satisfaction of knowing that this piece is entirely hand made,” explains Walter. “This care and personalized attention to the smallest detail shows in the beauty and lasting quality of my work -craftsmanship that lives on in small one-man shops like mine.” “When you buy a piece from me, you are also getting a piece of me,” says

Burlington’s Marc Kornbluh works in a variety of media, including metal, wood, clay and lamp worked glass, producing unique one-of-a-kind oil lamps, menorahs, mirrors and pens. Marc earned a Fine Arts degree from the New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts. He traveled overseas for years, informally studying art and culture. Much of his work is influenced by Islamic and Persian designs, which he incorporates into his own contemporary style. Marc’s markets include New York City and museum shops and galleries through­

Blanchette’s recordings, on his own Angelic Alternative Music label, have sold over 50,000 copies in Europe and the Americas. In 1995 Peter Blanchette was awarded named “Artist of the Year” by the Massachusetts Cultural Council. Virtual Consort performed live on Prairie Home Companion a couple of years ago, and is slated for another appearance from Town Hall in NYC in late 2001. Though Stephen Kiernan is better known locally as an editor with the Burlington Free Press, he is also an accomplished musician. This week­ Stephen Kiernan end is your chance to check out Stephen performing on his six and 12-string guitars. Stephen uses techniques from the banjo, classical guitar and rhythm and blues, as well as styles learned from Leo Kottke and Michael Hedges. He plays throughout New England and recently released a CD, Water From the Moon. He’s played in blues, jazz and bluegrass bands. Rusty Jacobs of Woods Tea Company has called him “one of Vermont’s musical treasures.” Stephen, born in upstate New York, came to Vermont in 1978, was editorial page editor at the Free Press for nine years, and is currently a freelance writer and special projects coordina­ tor at the Gannett daily. He lives in Charlotte with his wife Amy and his two sons.

Along with a retail wine shop, Wine Works houses The Wine Bar, a great place to relax and enjoy a full spectrum of wines, cheeses and desserts.

workshop provided an early outlet for his creativity. David first began taking his craft seriously working in wood, building furniture and custom cabinets. He began his jewelry-making career about 27 years ago. Shortly after this apprenticeship, David and his wife Yvonne left New Jersey to start a new life adventure in the beautiful state of Vermont. Once he established a studio, he began his jewelry business in earnest. David’s work reflects clean, simple forms that showcase the unique character of each gemstone. The work can be con­ sidered both classical and contemporary.

His work shows acute attention to detail; the quality of his finishes are exceptional, and his silver and gold pieces shine bril­ liantly. “Some of my designs are free form and flowing, the precious metal seeming­ ly frozen in mid movement,” he explains. “Others are highly stylized pieces with unusual stones and pearls set in art deco designs.” Today, David Epstein’s creativity and recognition continue to grow and thrive. His work appears in juried and invita­ tional shows throughout the country. Currently, David is sharing his experience and inspiration with jewelry students at Frog Hollow in Burlington.

Wine classes will be conducted at the Festival at the following times: Friday, August 17th 5:00 p.m.Saturday, August 18th 3:00 p.m. Sunday, August 19th 3:00 p.m. The classes are offered at a cost o f $15 per person.

Accessorizing to the occasion B y G retchen G iles

erhaps it’s true that when the Garden gate slammed shut behind him, Adam reached for a fig leaf to cover his nakedness. But it’s a darn good bet that Eve touched her bare earlobes, looked down at her naked neckline and meditatively drummed her unadorned fin­ gers. Picking a stray bit of apple from her hair, she may have snapped, “Quit shiver­ ing, Adam, and find me some silver to wear. If I’m to bear babies, knowledge, menstrual cramps, woetide and suffering, I may as well look great doing it.” And lo, accessories came into the world, and they were good. Examine that same scene with an eye to natural selection, and flash to some of Eve’s more challenged children. Scrabbling about in the sulfured dawn of human history, early man descended from trees in order to scrimp by on the ground barefoot in filthy furs and, it turns out, necklaces. Yep, archaeologists have found that long nights around the fire sucking bones led easily enough to long nights around the fire carv­ ing bones. Forget space travel, housing, sur­ gery and gourmet cooking — surely this marriage of fire with tools found its highest and best use in fashion accessories. Within the varied tool family, we humans particularly laud the loupe, soldering iron and credit card. Beyond the glint of the cave fire, jewelry has usually offered a hint to rank, wealth or perceived lovability. But merely add the marvelous invention of sunglasses and you’ve got another revolution: the birth of the cool. W hat would Jack Nicholson be today without Wayfarers riding above a rakish, elderly grin? Grace Kelly, chignon elegant­ ly swathed in a headscarf, couldn’t have trod the Riviera with such chic had her eyes been visible to all and sundry. Top a

porkpie hat to a pair of shades, and there’s Thelonious Monk — a man who only his family could attest actually had eyes. Once one wades into the large and swimmingly big world of accessories, it appears that most of what we wear, drive and perhaps even bed, pet or rear falls into the category of “the extra.” Because what, after all, is an accessory? As an antonym to “necessary,” perhaps it’s easier to define what it’s not: Not underwear. Not pants. Not shirts, skirts, shoes, shorts, jackets, suits, T-shirts, tights or dresses. That leaves everything else, including undersized pets, haute couture children, bimbos, gigolos, cell phones, wireless toys — cars, of course, cars — and the ordinary adorn­ ments to face and body. While we’ve always striven to improve on God or nature’s genetic gifts, it is maga­ zine editors who actually determine what makes us too fat. or too thin, pretty or not, well-dressed butterflies or drab old cows. And what do magazine editors wear? Black. Day in and day out, they march down Fifth Avenue in a veritable salute to the absence of color, differentiated only by mastheads and accessories. This one has an A-line hair­ cut and oversized glasses. That one favors heavy silver; another only wears Gaultier; this one’s sold her soul to Paloma Picasso. So while the peacocks parade down the runways, clad in fantastical guerrilla mili­ tary-school girl-flaming chanteulte-exotica, the people who make the decisions about your external worthiness rely on an unchanging, monochromatic costume enlivened solely by this year’s must-have accessory. But unlike magazine editors, who are so awash in free samples and gifts the only thing they ever have to purchase for themselves is deodorant, most of us can’t afford to upgrade our add-ons each year. All of which means that when most ordinary people fall for a trend, they go

But that wouldn’t be much fun. Personally, I’ve spent the better part of the summer unsuccessfully hunting for the perfect Camping Necklace. A camping necklace, in the event you are unfamiliar with the concept, is one that can be worn without annoyance while sleeping on packed-dirt scrabble, that looks good with a bathing suit, and doesn’t snag Gore-Tex or leave a tarnish around your neck. Where my grasp of physics or the com­ plete letters of Samuel Johnson should reside instead runs a hot little pant to finally find such an item. Some people feel this way about shoes. So do I. Others have a passion for belts. Me, too. And still more fantasize in a qui­ etly obsessive way about earrings — I should know. Surely, were I to be granted some oth­ erworldly slide through the time-space continuum and find myself just a few pages back from the Song of Solomon, I would lift my anguished eyes to the sky and harshly voice the question natural to all fashion-conscious Western women: “Dear good wise Eve — what have you wrought, and wherever did you get that purse?” (Z)

hard and stay long. Look down at your own wrist. If you’ve even allowed your eyes to graze the cover of a fashion magazine in the last three years, you’re proba­ bly now wearing or have worn one of those Zen bracelets that cata­ pulted ordinary agates and cheap lapis beads into a raging “statement.” Perhaps now is the moment to consider the question to such a statement: Are you really more serene or just $60 dollars lighter? Those of us sentient in the ’80s cov­ ered our forearms with the black rubber O-rings Madonna favored in Desperately Seeking Susan. Rhinestones came back and went away again, bound to return like a comet in 2010. Hair scrunchies, butterfly clips, baby-doll bobby-pins, chokers, toe rings, waist chains, pocket chains, dress clips, anklets, mood rings and a hundred cheap silver bangles compose a prose poem to money down the drain, flushed away by the vagaries of trend. More permanent are the drastic-change choices of piercings and tattoos, which last longer than most other good ideas. Recommended only for those few souls who are certain they’ll still be Feral Earth Children of the New Dawn well into their late seventies, these offer the ultimate life­ time protection of accessorizing your very own body into looking like everyone else’s. Because isn’t the sneaky sideways point of all o f this to set yourself apart while fitting in? If it weren’t, magazine editors wouldn’t bother with Paloma and heavy silver. They would happily settle — oh, the relief! — for merely enduring the all-black uniform their position demands.

Clothes Encounters continued from page 7a <^> If the equine image is aimed at women, then men can look forward to a resurgence of swamp lizards. “There’s a big return to Lacoste, which makes a better-quality knit shirt with the alligator logo,” explains Jonathan Lampert, co-owner of Ivy Brooks in South Burlington’s University Mall. “Lacoste wasn’t selling last year, but now people are asking for it. Suddenly, there are alligators everywhere. You’d think it was ' 1982!” This throwback is a sign of a more conservative, traditional approach to dressing that could be, along with missile shields, the consequence of a Republican White House. “I’m sure that is a factor,” says Lampert, who attended a men’s wear show in New York City a few weeks ago. “There’s a return to preppie, button-down shirts with brighter colors — away from the dark, Regis Philbin look, away from somber solids.” Lam­ pert has noticed a recent backlash against the popularity of “business casual,” in which an anythinggoes sensi­ bility took over. “You could spend a day at IBM and see guys wearing tank tops. We are start­ ing to experience a revival in our dress pants, jackets, shirts and ties. We’re literally Witnessing it right now. The industry is very much in flux. When men are more insecure about their jobs, suits are popular.” And not just any suits. “For the last five, six, seven years, three buttons was the rule. It lifts a guy up, accentuates his shoul­ ders, makes him look taller and slimmer. Now the two-buttons are giving men a trimmer look. George W. Bush wears only twobutton suits, like his father.” At Michael Kehoe Ltd. on the Church Street Marketplace, man­ ager Gary Barrows II offers a sim­ ilar sociological analysis. “It’s coming back to dressier fashions,” he says. “The economy is slowing down, these are more conserva­ tive times. We really went crazy with the dot-coms, when jobs were plentiful and workers could wear whatever they wanted. That’s not the case any more.” Rutkauskas of Filene’s agrees that the times are a-changin’ —

experimentation is out. “Ease and comfort are important in men’s clothing,” he notes. “The notion of a costume or a fashion victim has gone away.” Dungarees, a working-class staple that never really goes away, are apparently making a big comeback in the youth culture. “Jeans, jeans and more jeans,” proclaims Sarah Spencer, manag­ er of Ecco in Burlington. “Denim is huge right now. Shirts, jackets and pants, which are fitted at the thigh. Hip-huggers that flare out at the ankle in a boot cut. Not so bell-bottomy as in the 1960s.” These not-so-bell-bottomy pant legs frequently frame pointy-toed boots with stiletto heels. “Tight T-shirts, tight jeans and stiletto shoes — it’s the look,” Spencer says. “People can’t get enough of it.” Customers not on the prowl for “that perfect jean,” she adds, are trying to find that perfect suede or corduroy in — you guessed it — warm, earthy tones. Ecco is stocked with camel, olive green, wine, chocolate and, as always, black. With suede now less expen-

“People don’t want the cheap ’70s polyester that gets pilled up. Polynosic rayon always looks sharp.” — Gary Barrows II, Michael Kehoe Ltd. sive and available in a more prac­ tical form, it seems to be every­ where. Nan Patrick Crafts and Clothes has washable suede pants, shirts and jackets. Ditto for Common Threads and Filene’s. “It’s not that leather has gone away,” cautions Rutkauskas, “but suede is definitely the new skin. And it’s coming out in rich, sophisticated colors. Suede is a . very, very big idea.” A “I was on an accessory mis­ sion,” recalls Nan Patrick, refer­ ring to a recent business trip to Manhattan. And what did she find? That belts are back with a vengeance. “They go with the low hip-hugger styles,” she explains. “Some of them are ornate. I see a lot of contoured leather belts. Chain belts are in again, too.” Another fad, thanks to Sarah Jessica Parker’s panache on the HBO series “Sex and the City,” is “the jeweled pin,” Patrick says. “You can wear several at once, mixing and matching. You can spend $500 on a blazer and, if


you put on a fabu­ lous pin, people will only say, ‘Great pin!”’ They may also be say­ ing, “Great legs!”

Rutkauskas believes that “the return of the skirt means textured hose is going to be important again. Fishnet or crochet. It will happen.” Those fishnet-clad tootsies are likely to be- ensconced in shoes that have been designed as “less clunky, really high-heeled — maybe even heels in odd, geo­ metric shapes — and pointy-toed with a little squareness,” says Patrick. “They’re definitely more feminine.” In the spring, Ecco stopped ordering male garments after two years of trying to attract the gen­ der. “They weren’t buying,” Spencer acknowledges. “Men were not willing to spend money on clothes.” That might have been true for the store’s younger demo­ graphic, but Ivy Brooks is selling plenty of microfibers to all ages. “It’s a synthetic fabric that breathes,” Lampert says. “It does­ n’t wrinkle and holds its shape.” The current rage in shirts, coats and pants is polynosic. Who knew? A pair of Nautica polynosic dress slacks at Filene’s, in beige, dark gray or slate blue, was marked down to $49.99 from $ 120 last week. Nearby, the Brandini “brushed” microfiber pants were $59.99, reduced from $

knee,” Lawrence assures. From the perspective of Rutkauskas, “there is no dictate about hemlines. They are mostly above the knee to an inch or two below, or ankle-length.” Patrick pooh-poohs the old husbands’ tale about hemlines rising or falling with the stock market. “That was only in the Roaring ’20s,” she insists. “The micro-mini? I don’t think any­ body’ll buy it now. The world is wearing just above the knee or just below.” Autumn chill is inevitable, and clothiers like to be prepared. “We’ve got an acrylic wool sweater with a narrow stripe at the chest that makes it a little Gap-y,” Lampert says. “Yet, we’re selling more of them to the above-thirty crowd than I would have expected.” Despite the recent swelter, Lawrence was surprised that spe­ cialty sweaters at Common Threads have been going like, well, hotcakes. “They’re a very textured, Italian cardigan type with collars. Some are belted. The color is a creamy, cafe au lait. ” The sweater-coat is also fea­ tured at Filene’s. “There’s a light­ weight shearling,” says Rutkauskas. “Sometimes they’re hooded or trimmed with fur — fake fur, as well. I see them in red berry, wine and plum.” Nan Patrick sleeps better at night knowing that one particu­ lar trend is now passe: snakeskin, whether real or merely printed on textiles. “It’s so gross. I’m snake-phobic and, for a while, everything was reptile. Thank God it’s leaving.” Must be to make room for the horses and alligators.

“Microfiber is now as expen­ sive or more so than other fab­ rics,” says Barrows at Michael Kehoe. “It’s a huge part of our business. It probably accounts for half of our pants. People don’t want the cheap ’70s polyester that gets pilled up. Polynosic rayon always looks sharp.” Barrows also sings the praises of stretch wool. “They’ve given wool memory,” he says. “It wants to come back to its original shape.” ^ The 1960s are flashing back at Common Threads, according to Lawrence. “I see it in the boot-cut pants and the textured, kneelength wool coats with a low belt.” But skirts and dresses are not reflecting the Mod period, when every frock had to be accompa­ nied by go-go boots. And forget rumors that the mini is back. “Hemlines are right under the

^ W h i l e nobody would ever mistake Vermont for a Capital of the Au Courant, one living, breathing mannequin from these parts might be heading for super­ model stardom. Kristen Bronson — apparently no relation to Charles, who did inhabit the Green Mountain State for a while — will be featured in this Sunday’s Fashions of the [New York] Times magazine. The photo shoot took place in front of her trailer park home in Starksboro, perhaps signaling a sort of double-wide chic to replace the much-criticized hero­ in chic of recent years. Look for the blonde, svelte Bronson in the cast of Zoolander, an upcoming Ben Stiller comedy about a male model. She’s now in Australia, performing in the next George Lucas Star Wars prequel, Attack o f the Clones. May the fashion force be with her. ®

u n n om and Dad, I want I « # l to be a shoemaker” I I I are not the words par­ ents expect to hear from their children in the 21st century. In these days of instant messaging, digital imaging, cloning sheep — and maybe even humans — shoemaking seems an antiquated profession most of us associate with Giapetto and his wooden son Pinocchio. But two years ago, becoming a professional shoemaker is just what Matt Renna did. The 28-year-old’s shingle — or actually, a placard reading “Renna Shoes” — can be found outside 148 Cherry Street in Burlington, midway between Ben & Jerry’s and Brooks Pharmacy. ■v While he does occasional repairs, Renna explains patiently that traditional­ ly shoemakers make the shoes, while cobblers repair them. His focus is on creating customdesigned shoes, not to mention boots, sandals and even house slippers. If you have a type of footwear in mind, Renna can probably make it. Glancing around the shop and paging through Renna’s impressive port­ folio, you see he’s created extravagant boots from a customer’s own designs, replicated favorite shoes that are no longer manu­ factured, and built shoes for peo­ ple with special fitting needs — extra-wide feet, long toes, high arches or unusual bone structures “The people who appreciate what I do the most,” Renna says, “are people who can’t find shoes that fit. They’re so excited to find this service.” As well they should be. The shoes are remarkable not only for their quality but for their style. Renna loves design, and rightly sees it as the creative part of his work. Compared to factory-made products, where the bottom line is profit, his are evidence of a

rare, old-world approach to man­ ufacturing. And his costs, while significantly higher than those of your standard mass-produced shoe, are reasonable for the time and attention he puts into his work. His shoes start at $300 —a third of what you’d pay in cities like Boston or New York. Custom-made sandals, however, start at $100 — not much more than a pair of Tevas. Avery Rifkin, co-owner of Stone Soup in Burlington, owns four pairs of Renna’s shoes. He says he enjoys doing business with the young shoemaker because of his warmth and will­ ingness to work with his cus­ tomers. “In terms of quality, his shoes are great,” says Rifkin, “and his prices are reasonable.” Rifkin owns two pairs of dress shoes,

head that I wanted to make myself a pair of shoes,” he says. Upon his return to the States, Renna began teaching himself, trying a variety of techniques, including casting his own foot in plaster. For a while he would only make one shoe, not a pair. “I could always make another one if the first one fit,” he says with a laugh. “For a long time, information was my most-needed resource, and it was really hard to find any literature or books, or anything at all, about shoemaking.” A turning point came in 1996 when, after living in Vermont for a short time, he traveled to Middlebury to visit shoemaker Dan Freeman. Freeman told him about Shoe Trades Publishing, based in

“I’ve always been attracted to things that are sort of utilitarian Jjut also creative... For me, 1 shoemaking is a nice marriage [of different values that I’ve been s e a r c h m g T o ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ W II K " — Matt Renna one pair of work shoes and a set of way-cool leather sneakers. He adds, “M att gets better with every pair he does for me.” “How did you become a shoemaker?” is a question Renna hears often. A lanky, handsome man with an easy grin and a mop of dark, curly hair, he smiles and explains that at first shoemaking was just a hobby after he gradu­ ated from the University of Wisconsin with a degree in anthropology. “I had been in Europe and seen some of the handmade stuff in Greece and Italy, and got the idea in my

Boston, where Renna was origi­ nally from. Since discovering that company’s variety of books on shoemaking, it’s been slow but steady learning process, Renna says. His passion for shoemaking is obvious, Renna seems most at home in his workshop, which is filled with sketches and designs, hundreds of models for shoe styles and sizes, sewing machines, skivers and other tools and gadg­ ets. His eyes light up when he talks about the intricacies of his craft and the different types of shoe constructions. “I’ve always

been attracted to things that are sort of utilitarian but also cre­ ative,” Renna says. “In making shoes, I could design things and also be involved in the making of them. It’s also a product that is very useful. For me, shoemaking is a nice marriage of different val­ ues that I’ve been searching for.” In most modern shoes, the tops, or “uppers,” and insoles are attached with a glue adhesive to the sole. Or they’re injected and molded — the uppers attached to an insole and then a sole injected into a form around these two pieces. Handmade shoes are sewn to the sole. “Shoes that are stitched together are higher-qual­ ity and last longer,” Renna says. “You can have multiple soles put on them and they can be repaired.” His biggest complaint about mass-produced shoes? They’re made to throw away, not to repair. Renna starts building a shoe with something called a “last,” an industry-standard form for dif­ ferent types arid styles of foot­ wear. Then he adapts the shoes to the specific needs of the cus­ tomer. Initially he takes a series of measurements and tracings, interviews the customers to make sure he understands their needs, and often has an additional fit­ ting part-way through the con­ struction process to make sure everything feels right on the foot. Plaster casts are occasionally required if the customer has unusual pedestrial needs. “I didn’t even know I wanted a pair of shoes until I saw the pair he’d made for himself,” says Jeremy Bond, owner of Champlain Leather, who is also a big fan of Renna’s. Asked if he plans to order another pair, he says he already has. “I’m just waiting for him to finish them,” he says, nodding teasingly toward Renna. The two craftsmen share tools and space on Cherry Street.

Renna smiles when asked what his family thought of his intention to become a shoemak­ er. “It’s funny — my mother is an artist, my father’s a doctor, and their reactions were the opposite of what I expected,” he recalls. “My mother said, ‘What do you mean, you’re making shoes?’ while my father’s response was, ‘That sounds like something you’ll really be able to express yourself in.’” Both parents are supportive now, Renna says, but it took them a while to realize he was serious, that becoming a shoe­ maker was not just a passing phase. And though he currently supplements his income with other part-time work, he does envision a day in the not-too-distant future when shoemaking will be his sole occupation. As far as he knows, there’s no shoemak­ ing in his family history. “But I am half Italian,” Renna notes, “so you never know.” Anyone favoring high-tech footwear might be dismissive of his trade, but he says most peo­ ple are “really receptive.” Anyone and everyone can buy identical Nikes, but compared to massmade and marketed products, Renna’s individually made, finely crafted shoes have greater cachet. People also seem to respect what he does because it’s nearly a lost art, the shoemaker observes. In a technology-driven world, people may long for something that has a personal, human touch. Renna compares the appeal of custom-made shoes to that of artisanal bread, or to the phenomenal popularity of micro­ brews. There are certain things in life that people are willing to pay more for. Good beer is one. Good footwear, he hopes, is another. ®

refreshing.

he would travel for himself, he was not left with any choice between success and failure. That’s the way it has always been for Dean. Winning starts with the idea that you’re not going to lose. Governor Dean has never spent any significant amount of time mulling that possibility. More important, he isn’t afraid to lose. Like everyone else, he’s happy when he wins, but unlike every­ one else, he isn’t going to jump off the roof should he lose. It’s the ingredient that is an absolute must in the warrior. And if Howard Dean is anything, he’s a warrior. “Here’s a kid raised on Park Avenue,” continued Wright, “who goes to the best private schools, summers in the Hamptons, attends Yale, and after taking a year off skiing to ‘find himself,’ decides he doesn’t want to spend his life making money on Wall Street, and goes off to medical school. “One might think this would all lead him to a massive ego. It hasn’t. Dean is one of the most humble men I have ever met. It isn’t that he doesn’t take himself seriously, it’s just that he doesn’t think what he’s achieved is any­ thing extraordinary.” This week, yours truly asked Gov. Dean what sort of marks he’d give himself after 10 years at the top. “I think you guys can grade me,” he replied. “I don’t grade myself.” Okay, we will. Ten years ago the good times of the 1990s had not yet arrived. Vermont was paying oil its largest state deficit ever. The tax-andspend-like-a-drunken-sailor Democrats had gotten us into a hole. Gov. Dean stuck to the aus­ terity plan Gov. Snelling and Speaker Wright had put in place. He also took on the tax-andspend image of his own party nose-to-nose and won. Ten years later, every success­ ful Democrat in Vermont dances to a different tune. When one hears Democrat spenders of a decade ago — like the current state auditor, Elizabeth Ready — describe themselves as “fiscal con­ servatives” committed to “sustain­ able spending,” one is witnessing a true miracle. Were Howard Dean a Roman Catholic, he’d be up for canonization by the Vatican. Then there’s the health-care front. Until the United States joins the rest of the Western world in taking the greed out of medicine, universal care will remain an unattainable goal. But Howard Dean has taken Vermont farther than anywhere else1. His commitment to caring for new citizens in the first months and years of life — Success By Six — has been his trademark. Nice work, Doc. Environmental activists grum­ ble that Ho-Ho is no tree-hugger. True enough. But he’ll long be remembered for the hundreds of thousands of acres of farm and


forest land he fought to preserve and protect for our childrens chil­ drens children. Nothing to sneeze at, eh? At the same time, Ho-Ho’s delivered on keeping Vermont downtowns healthy and alive. And who can forget all the abuse and ridicule Howard Dean endured to move the “radical” idea of a Burlington-Charlotte commuter rail train from the idea stage to reality? Guess what? Ho-Ho’s Choo-Choo is up and running, and the naysayers are sucking wind. And let’s not forget, Ho-Ho cut taxes and reduced the states debt. The numbers don’t lie. Today Vermont has the highest bond rating in New England. Gov. Dean once described himself in the national press as “a passionate centrist.” Extremists loathe centrists, and Ho-Ho has been scorned equally by extrem­ ists of the left and extremists of the right. Can’t please everybody, eh? But don’t ever misread Dean’s centrism as wishy-washiness. Politics is a contact sport and HoHo loves the contact. Ask him a straight question and you get a straight answer, which is what yours truly did on December 20, 1999, one hour after the Vermont Supreme Court decision on gay marriage hit the street. We pressed him on how he “personal­ ly felt” about same-sex marriage, a question he had ducked for years pending the big court decision. “I’m uncomfortable,” said Dean that day, “just like anybody else.” We requested the no-frills, icecold truth and we got it. In the ensuing months, as the legislature wrestled with same-sex marriage and came up with civil unions, Gov. Dean was steadfast in adhering to the principle of equality for all Vermonters. HoHo never flinched, even though the issue had his political obituary written all over it. We asked our Guv the other day if he’d ever imagined back in August 1991 that 10 years later he’d still be Vermont’s undisputed heavyweight champ. “I don’t think like that,” Dean replied. “I don’t have a personal political 10-year plan, so I never have thought about how long I’d been in office or any of that kind of stuff.” And what does the Guv think of the 10th anniversary reviews he’s received in the local press over the past few days? “I think some of them are good and some of them are bad,” answered Dean. “It’s about the way it’s been for the last 10 years.” With all the hoopla over his 10th anniversary as governor of Vermont, had anyone, we asked, said “thank you” for the years of service to our Green Mountain State? “No,” replied Dean: Well, in that case, allow us to be the first. Thank you, Howard. Thank you very much, indeed! ® E -m a il P eter a t In s id e T rack V T @ a o l. com

lose your eyes. Prepare to take a little mental journey to ... the Tropics. Bear with me as I set this scene; you’ll find out why in a minute. You awaken groggily from a nap in your beachside hammock. A blood-red sun is sinking toward the water against a late afternoon sky. The chatter of macaws and spider monkeys echoes from the jungle canopy. You stretch deliciously. Ah, paradise. You are truly drinking from the Cup of Life.. Oops. Now you’re wishing your Cup hadn’t included that last Mai Tai before nodding off. Your bladder is way full. Normally, of course, you could just wade into the water and pee. But you just spied some of the local militia, sharing a bottle of Bacardi and coming down the beach in your direction. Plus, you sort of h.ave to go number two. So you slip into your sandals and begin walk­ ing briskly down the jungle path to find the public restrooms. Uh-oh. The sun has now slipped below the horizon, and the only light comes in the form of thinning pink and crimson rib­ bons. Lovely. But soon it will be pitch-black. Better hurry. Where are those rest­ rooms? Is it a left or a right at the fork in the path? You take the left fork. Bad move. No restrooms here, and now you can’t see five feet in front of you. You’ll just have to drop trou next to that mangrove and get back to the relative safety of the beach before you com­ pletely lose your bearings. Hey, why is it so quiet out here all of a sudden? What was that? A little rustling... probably just a harmless peccary, or perhaps a capybara — the world’s largest rat, but no man-eater. Wait! A twig snaps in the trees behind you! You turn, but of course you’re in no position to run... from a jaguar. “Nice kitty,” you squeak in a trembling voice. “That’s a good widdle kitty-cat. Ahhhrrghh!” The tropics are a great place to visit, as long as you stay on the beach and out of way of death squads. But they’re a rotten, dangerous place to live. The simple fact is, the closer you get to the Equator, the more likely you are to be eaten alive, bitten by a poisonous snake or cut down by auto­ matic weapons fire. It’s really hot and humid down there, and both the people and the animals are nearly always in a bad mood. I’m telling you this because, judging from the latest heat wave, there is either something to the greenhouse effect or someone has been sneaking the Equator further north when no one was looking. I don’t want to sound alarmist, but mark my words: If President Bush continues to blow off the Kyoto Accord, the hypothetical beach I just mentioned

will be on Lake Champlain and you’ll need a machete to get through Leddy Park. You won’t be able to find the public restrooms at all, because they’ll be completely overgrown with ferns and car­ nivorous plants. We’ve already got tropical diseases like the West Nile virus. Bigger stuff is on the way. I give Vermont five years before crocodiles aresnatching canoes in the Winooski River and green mambas are dropping onto customers on their way out of Kinko’s. I am certain of this, because I have already experienced the greenhouse hell that awaits us all. It’s in my apartment in downtown Montpelier. As you climb the floors in my building, you pass through several climate zones. The first is my landlord’s cool, dry, first-floor office. It’s kind of like Sweden with fewer tall blondes, and it’s what the rest of the place — the rest of Vermont, for that matter — would y be like in a just world. This is what the brochure promised me when I decided to move to Vermont from Texas. The second floor is uncom­ fortable but not unbearable, sort of like Southern France with politer people. Unfortunately, also like France, everyone on that floor smokes constantly. This sidestream smoke is analogous to the greenhouse gases we are currently pouring into the atmosphere with our big fat SUVs. Just as fluorocarbons rise into and destroy the ozone, this smoke climbs through the plumbing and up along the baseboards into my top-floor cof­ fin, where it fouls the air and sours my mood. Then it heats all the air in my bedroom to approximately 30 degrees warmer than the outside temperature. This means that the climate up there closely approximates that of coastal Venezuela or Haiti, without the relief of trade winds, rum and colorful parrots. Any movement at all on my part produces a river of sweat that stings as it pours off my fore­ head into my eyes, and if I’m up there longer than 15 minutes during daylight — even less during a heat wave like this latest one — I begin to have vio­ lent temper tantrums, followed by mild hallucina­ tions. For this reason I have been doing most of my writing at a nearby park, as I am today. But now it’s hot out here, too, even in the shade. I’m not moving a muscle and I’m dripping wet. I can’t take this! We have to stop this global warming! We must take to the streets! We need to form death squads! Yeah, you! What the hell you looking at? Whoa, sorry. Must be hallucinating again. But I’ve got a grip now, really. Wait a second, I need to check out that noise. Something’s rustling in the bushes... ®

Well, Western civilization didn’t end, if that’s what you’re asking, notwithstanding the impression you may get from reality TV shows. It’s unlikely the Aum Shinrikyo people went to the outback intending to mine uranium, and it’s really, really unlikely they detonated a nuclear bomb there. But — this is the weird part — the cultists did buy some property in the outback, and about the time they did, there was a massive seismic event nearby, accom­ panied by a fireball in the sky. Probably it was just a coinci­ dence. But who knows? Maybe they just didn’t know that if the barbie’s knackered, you shouldn’t have a gander at the propane with a match. „ The book you’re reading is undoubtedly Bill Bryson’s In a S u n b u rn e d C ountry. In it he reports that: (1) At 11:03 p.m. local time on May 28, 1993, a large-scale seismic dis­ turbance, elsewhere reported as measuring 3.9 on the Richter scale, was detected near the Banjawarn sheep sta­ tion in remote western Australia. The few observers in the area reported seeing a flash in the sky and hearing an explosion. (2) The blast was 170 times more powerful than the biggest mining explosion ever recorded in the region and was consistent with a meteorite strike, but no crater

could be found. (3) In 1995, after the Aum Shinrikyo in Japan had released nerve gas in the Tokyo subway system and killed 12 people, it was revealed that the cult owned a 500,000-acre prop­ erty in western Australia near the site of the myste­ rious boom. (4) The cult has two former Soviet nuclear engineers in its ranks, hopes eventually to destroy the world, and maybe wanted a bit of prac­ tice, eh? (5) In 1997, scientists finally got around to investigating this disquieting possibility. “You take my point,” Bryson writes. “This is a country... so vast and empty that a band of amateur enthusi­ asts could conceivably set off the world’s first non­ governmental atomic bomb on its mainland arid almost four years would pass before anyone noticed.” Nicely put, but of course we can’t leave it at that. On further investigation, it appears that the Aum Shinrikyo connection was publicized through the efforts of one Harry Mason, an Australian min­ ing geologist and sometime UFO investigator. Having heard about the 1993 event a couple years after the fact, Mason interviewed every observer he could find within a 300-kilometer radius of Banjawarn. Several reported seeing a large fireball streak across the sky and dis­ appear beyond the horizon, followed by a near-blinding burst of light accompanied by a loud blast, a massive seis­ mic ground wave, and a huge red flare that shot into the sky. This in turn was followed by “a deep red-orange coloured hemisphere of opaque light” that hovered aboye the apparent explosion site for hours, then suddenly disap­ peared; another fireball an hour after the first one; and pos­ sibly a third one still later (or earlier — the observers didn’t remember). Numerous other fireballs have supposedly been spotted in western Australia in the years before and since. Mason wrote up a report describing all this and point­ ing out the Aum Shinrikyo link. His report found its way into the hands of the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations headed by U.S. senator Sam Nunn, which asked Incorporated Research Institution for Seismology (IRIS), a university research consortium nased in Washington, D.C., to look into the possibility that the cultists had somehow detonated an atom bomb. On the basis of the sketchy seismic data available. IRIS concluded

that an explosion was unlikely and found that “the obser­ vations are consistent with a meteorite scenario,” notwith­ standing the lack of a crater or other physical evidence. I’ve been in touch with Harry Mason, a published ver­ sion of whose report can be found at www.cheniere.org/ misc/brightskiesl.htm. Harry doesn’t buy the meteorite explanation, conjecturing that the fireballs were actually “concentrated slugs of infolded Tesla ray-wave E/M energy, emitting light (photons) as a by-product of interaction with air molecules to provide a hologramlike spatial form.” Harry was very kind in sharing his research with me, but still one has to say: Cheezit, man, lay off the comic books. His paper also had section headings like “Oklahoma City Bombing,” which made my lip curl before I’d read any fur­ ther. Let’s get serious. The likeliest explanation is that the boom was a meteorite strike, and the reason they haven’t found any physical evidence is that it happened in the middle of a wasteland the size of England, by Masons esti­ mate. It’s like my office. You think if an asteroid fell on it, anybody could tell? — CECIL ADAMS

PRO AND ‘CON’ You gotta hand it to that perpetual motion machine named Jim LocKridge. Becoming a baby-toting daddy hasn’t slowed his ardent cultivation of the local music scene. His latest enterprise: Indiecon — a “mini micro grassroots commu­ nity-oriented music conference,” as he puts it. Though Lockridge calls the event a “humble” one, the day-long “music, film & civic slapdown” con­ ference is as topical as it is musical. Starting in the early afternoon, young C ED O employee Andrew Huff will elucidate how city government works — “the point being to give all o f us the power to change the way things work if we happen to disagree with the system,” Lockridge says. The Big Heavy'World proprietor notes that “the all-ages situation” in downtown Burlington has been a recent heated topic of discussion on his Web site’s bulletin board, so he decided to explore ways to respond constructively. “I’m kind of in a posi­ tion to be able to peek into the world o f the mature elements o f downtown government and the formative and developing personalities o f the music scene,” he explains. “This event is sort of a stab at bridging the commu­

nication gap between them.” In other words, teach the kids how to talk back and actually get somewhere. H uff’s talk is followed by a com­ munity panel, including assistant city attorney Gene Bergman and Red Square/Metronome co-owner Jack O’Brien — a lively mix right there — as well as representatives from the music community, 242 Main and the police department. The subject: all­ ages shows in Burlington. The film part: two music-oriented documentary films, one about the New York hardcore scene, the other an acidic-comic indictment of the corporate music biz. Then the music: Alt-rockers Gnutar debut at 8 p.m., followed by rock-jazz-funksters Candid Daydream from Syracuse, Buzz High School Band Search winners Suicide Spring, ska-with-attitude locals Skasquatch, punk-rappers DysFunkShlin and pop­ sters 5% Joe and The Halogens. All this takes place in the FlynnSpace, thanks to some crafty logistics, and costs a mere 10 bucks. “There will be something to interest just about everybody” who cares about the local music scene and youth culture, Lockridge suggests. “I want to give

HAPPY TOGETHER Art and music have long been pals, and Club Metronome is trying out the duo on otherwise slow Mondays with onenight stand visual exhibits accompa­ nied by some kinda sound. This week it’s photographers Shena SmithConnolly and Rebecca Mack — showing shots of Thailand and Zimbabwe — with Rob Jones, Mark Knuffke and Sci-Fi behind the DJ booth. Old hands at both art and music, Clark Russell and Tom LaWSOn — a.k.a. ReCon — provide a “sound collage” for the opening of Russell’s sculpture show this Friday at Rhombus. Also on hand will be ambient soundmakers EB&SK. DO GOOD DEPT. Since Woody Guthrie first wailed “This land

is your land, this land is my land,” lotsa musicians have literally showcased their inner environmentalists. Especially those of the folkie, rootsy persuasion. So it was a, well, natural progression for Maine residents Sarah Sanford and Rob Kneeland to form SOUL — that’s Save O ur Undeveloped Land — and fill its nonprofit coffers with funds raised by musicians in concert. The grassroots organization, which donates money to land trusts and other conservation groups around New England, has recently released its first CD, titled simply SOUL. Its 17 tracks were donated by as many acts, as was studio time and every other aspect of the project. Track 15 is “Big Question,” by Vermont’s

Smokin’ Grass, and a fellow Green M ountain band, Strangefolk, is responsible for directing any proceeds from sales in the state to the Winooski Valley Park District. You might be most familiar with its Ethan Allen Homestead, but in fact the W VPD has preserved 17 nat­ ural areas in Chittenden County, including 12 miles of shoreline and 28 miles of trails and gardens accessi­ ble to the public. So you can help keep all this, and more, away from the bulldozer by purchasing SOUL — at Pure Pop in Burlington, at the Strangefolk “Garden of Eden” festival in September, or online at www.souland.org. There, don’t you feel better already? Before you get all teary, though, consider these words: Christmas in August. T hat’s the slogan of the Motorcycle Toy Run, leaving this Saturday morning at 9 from the O tter Creek Tavern in Vergennes and wending its way to Berlin, Bring a toy to this race, which will be donated to the Shriners’ Hospitals for Children.

And while reggae has seen much experimentation since Bob Marley’s day, none have really done better. T hat’s why “Ready or N ot,” the first song on Morgan Heritage’s Actual Proof, feels so damn good: It sounds like the Wailers, and Peter Morgan — intentionally or not — seems like Marley reborn. Definitely “big hit” material, and it kicks off the disc for good reason. Morgan Heritage isn’t shy about peppering their third release with roots reggae, and why not? The five siblings are among the 29 (!) children of Jamaican legend Denroy Morgan and represent old-school style. Tracks like “Down By the River” and “W hat We Need Is Love” have a timeless appeal in both sound and message. “Jah Seed” is another one you can just see Marley singing, with lovely harmonies that urge a message of spiritual growth. But before you can brand this effort as recycled consciousness, the Morgans bust out with a num ­ ber of fcontemporary sounds. Hip-hop interludes

bring a fresh feel to “More Teachings...” and “Same Old Song” (the first single), while a couple of other songs downright belong in the Top 40 category. For the most part, this is done tastefully, but “Always On My M ind” crosses the line into sticky sweet. Its pop soul style is nowhere near reggae, and feels out of place here. If you’re like me, a band that promises to give you “more teachings” is just a little too evangelical for comfort. Sure, just about everyone is down with Rastafarian messages O r ig r ix ia .! & t r a d i t i o n a l like “Hatred is the enemy” and “Take care of the children.” But if you really listen to the O L D T IM E C O U N T R Y lyrics here, you’ll find things like the King & B L D B O H A S S M U S IC James version of The Bible being referred to as “propaganda.” And if you disagree that Emperor Haile Selassie I of Ethiopia was the second coming o f Jesus, then you might want to skip “So Much Confusion.” Peter Morgan says it well in the press materials: ber of them — originals “Call Me Anytime” and “We tell people how to live.” “Sunday Afternoon” wefe recorded in mono in the If you don’t mind a healthy helping of dogma artist’s basement — actually plays right into the with your music, then you’ll likely enjoy what this overall effect: These hissy tracks sound like some­ Jackson Five of reggae has to offer — including at thing Alan Lomax might have taped in a field their show at Higher Ground this Monday. somewhere in Muehlenberg County in 1951.

Cape

Crusaders B y D irk V an S usteren istening to music, even great music, in the rain can be daunting and, indeed, my wife, kids and I were getting a bit tired — not to mention sodden — after a five-hour marathon of Celtic music last August in Nova Scotia. Some of the 3000 fans around us began packing up damp blankets and lawn chairs. Some headed for the gates. That’s when the final act came out. It was a four-member family band with fiddles, pipes, tin whistles, a flute, bodhran and keyboard. The crowd perked up. Two elderly women who had been sitting quietly in front of us stood expectantly and pulled out flasks. We decided to stay. For an hour and a half longer, The Barra MacNeils had that wet and weary crowd up and dancing. Their lively tunes — rooted in music-blessed Cape Breton traditions — broke the gloomy spell cast by the mist and rain. Flash forward three months, again around midnight. This time I was sitting with a few hundred other Celtic-music fans in a hall in St. Anns, Cape Breton, dur­ ing a concert that was part of a fallfoliage festi­ val. It had been another marathon, albeit a remarkable one, and the crowd was feeling it. Then out came The Barra MacNeils — Sheumas, 39, Kyle, 38, Stewart, 35, and Lucy, 32 — with another rousing wake-up call. So come sleepy, if you must, to their concert next Tuesday at Higher Ground, but do come; it promises to be a joyful jolt. You’ll leave with melodies and lyrics implanted in your brain, and an understanding of why Celtic music is experiencing a renais­ sance across eastern Canada and in pockets of the United States. The Barra MacNeils will open for another Celtic group, The * Saw Doctors, from County Galway in Ireland. The two bands share an agent and are try­ ing to broaden their fan base in the U.S., particularly in college towns or cities with descendants of Irish and Scottish immigrants. Formed in 1986 when the brothers were attending Mount

Allison University in New Brunswick, The Barra MacNeils have become a favorite in Canada’s Maritimes provinces. They were nominated for a Juno Award — Canada’s equivalent of a Grammy — for their new album, R a c k e t in th e A ttic . Last winter the band received “Group of the Year” honors at the presti­ gious East Coast Music Awards in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island. The Barra MacNeils’ visit to New England follows that of another Cape Bretoner, the incredible fiddler Natalie MacMaster. Partly responsible for the burgeoning interest in Celtic music, she has played to sell-out

tainment. For the most part, that means music — in the form of “rackets,” or house parties, and ce ilid h s, which is Gaelic for “gatherings.” The MacNeils grew up with that tradition, and when they’re not on the road, they still often play in church basements and town halls — opportunities to polish their techniques, Kyle noted. Two other MacNeil broth­ ers play in a different Celtic band.

Like MacMaster and her band, The Barra MacNeils are a great live act, warm and gener­ ous. But it’s the music that keeps the crowd riveted. In a recent telephone interview from Cape Breton, Kyle, the band’s unoffi­ cial spokesman, said he and his siblings are just starting to appre­ ciate their ability to connect with the crowd. “It is something that we had not quite been aware of, but now it is becoming part of our goal — to get the audience into the music,” he noted. Connecting with others is the Cape Breton way. The island, an appendage of Nova Scotia, is mountainous, wooded and sparsely populated. And much like Vermonters did decades ago, Cape Bretoners still largely depend on neighbors and com­ munity for friendship and enter­

parents lived. “My mother’s side of the family is very musical,” Kyle informed. “She fiddled, step-danced and played the piano... It was always part of us.” R a c k e t in th e A ttic reflects the current state of The Barra MacNeils’ music, said Kyle, explaining that a few years back the band tried a more “pop” route. But they moved back toward their indigenous roots — mostly fiddle with piano accom­ paniment — while incorporating modern Irish-rock sounds. What I like most about The Barra MacNeils’ music is its power to transport. The melodies and lyrics evoke thoughts of places you may not have even been to: the misty coast or rugged highlands of Scotland; a cheerful pub in Dublin; a lively c e ilid h in Cape Breton. Or, perhaps, a cer­ tain working-class neighborhood in Sydney Mines. ®

With the help of a map available at the gallery, a nice cross-section of contemporary sculpture can be found within easy walking distance. The main exhibition areas are in the vicinity of Main Street, the community recre­ ation path and around the HD AC lawn. Several of these pieces could not exist in a typical gallery environment. In a wooded section of the recreation path, Peter Harris partially pulled down the limb of a dead tree and wove a tangle of steel wire around it to cre­ ate “Tense.” Bark has been stripped from the limb, which spans a marshy creek. “Pushkar Sky,” by Parker Croft There is tension on the wire because Harris tied a large stone to one end and has slung it walkway up from Pond Street.

They’ve risen to the very pinnacle of showbiz prominence making big-screen fun of people with developmental handicaps and psychological disorders, of people noisily moving their bowels, getting sensi­ tive body parts caught in zippers, having barnyard fowl inserted into ill-suited orifices, having sex with siblings and, of course, putting human hair gel on their head. They have pushed envelopes. They have shocked. And just when you might assume there’s nothing shocking left for them to do, Bobby and Peter Farrelly have done perhaps the most shocking thing in their careers. They’ve made a family film! Not only is O sm osis Jones suitable for kids, parents and everybody in between, it’s about 50 percent car­ toon and almost entirely entertaining. Bill Murray stars in the live-action half of the film as a festering Superfund site of a middle-aged father named Frank. His wife has died, he has a young daughter (Elena Franklin) to raise, and he self-medicates by inhaling his body weight in beer and junk food daily. The girl visits him at the zoo, where he’s employed as a maintenance worker, and, just as he’s about to pop a hard-boiled egg into his mouth, a nearby chimp grabs it and puts it in his. Man and beast wrestle over the snack, it winds up on the ground and, invoking the “10-second rule” — as long as food has been there 10 seconds or less, it’s still OK to eat — Murray toss­ es it down. To no one’s surprise, he doesn’t feel so good a short while later. On the outside, Frank’s a mess. On the inside, he’s a comic cartoon metropolis, a vast bureaucracy of body parts and fluids, anthropomorphic microorgan­ isms and raging political debate — all this on top of his raging fever. William Shatner voices the City of Frank’s mayor, a bloated blowhard facing competition in his bid for reelection from a fresh-faced challenger running on a platform of urban renewal. Which, in the context of the film, means cleaning up Frank’s act and getting him into shape. Against that imaginative backdrop, Chris Rock plays the title character, a maverick white-blood cell who gets wind of a plot on the part of deadly virus

(Laurence Fishburne) to make a ghost town of his host organism. Rock teams up with a time-release cold capsule brought to life nicely by David Hyde Pierce. The two butt heads at first, in the tradition of mismatched movie crime fighters, but in the end prove hazardous to the forces threatening Murray’s health. They also might be the cure for your summer comedy blahs. Next to dimwitted disappointments like O n e N ig h t a t M cC o o ls, E vo lu tio n and Scary M o v ie 2 , O sm osis Jones is a work of surpassing wit and monu­ mental conceptual panache. Not that most of the humor isn’t juvenile. It’s just that the Farrellys have done such a top-drawer job of playing the live action off the animation, of mining human physiology for a motherlode of gooey gags and punchlines, of creating real and cartoon personalities that somehow manage to be sympathetic — even likable — while simultane­ ously bringing one to the brink of barfing. The relationship between Frank and his daughter is, in fact, the most touching and sincerely rendered human connection ever committed to celluloid by the brothers. Her efforts to look after her father and motivate him to adopt a healthier lifestyle are utterly void of irony. It’s the sort of thing one wouldn’t be surprised to run across in a children’s film from Disney. Now th ere’s something I never thought I’d live to say about, a movie from these guys. Murray’s resplendent in his rot, Rock and Pierce are pros as always, the animation’s an interesting mix of- the hand-drawn and computer-generated, and the jokes are pretty evenly divided between those geared to younger members of the audience and those for the people who brought them. The more adult stuff is written to pass right under the radar of PG viewers, as other, more age-appropriate action diverts them. It’s counterintuitive, but parents can rest assured they’ll feel comfortable having brought the offspring. Young, old, out of shape or in, you’re guaranteed a daily requirement of laughs from the germ warfare in O sm osis Jones. Its humor is clever, playful, familyfriendly and, yes, infectious. ®

fly buy Although it sounds cuckoo, the Vermont Bird Fancier Club is quite serious about holding its upcoming sale-swap of birds and small ani­ mals at a St. Albans Dunkin Donuts. Quail, geese, pheasants, peacocks, chickens, ducks, guineas and pigeons are as welcome on the auction block as your caged yellow Tweety. A raffle of bird-related equipment benefits the club, which stresses humane treatment of the feathered flock. And budgies will not be mistaken for baked goods, unless they’re chocolate-frosted.

SeLeCTs loaf for life fhen the Bread Loaf Writers’ Conference was launched in 1926, Sinclair Lewis had won a Pulitzer for A rro w sm ith , Ernest Hemingway came out with T h e S u n A lso Rises and Carl Sandburg published the first two volumes of his exhaustive Abraham Lincoln biography. But only Lewis made it to the writing camp in Ripton that also boasted faculty like Robert Frost, Bernard DeVoto, Dorothy Canfield Fisher and Wallace Stegner. The celebrity scribes convening this week may turn out to be equally enduring. Big names come to Bread Loaf to coach aspiring authors, who participate in workshops and classes all day. But the night belongs to readings, parties, dances and other social events. “Bread Loaf is not a retreat — not a place to work in solitude,” says director Michael Collier. “Instead it provides a voluble congress of diverse voices in which we test our own assumptions regarding literature and seek advice about our progress as writers.” You don’t have to pass any test to enjoy twice-daily readings that are free and open to the public. Nearly 40 writers will read over the next 10 days, including novelist Thomas Mallon, arctic adventure writers Andrea Barrett and Barry Lopez and Vermont State Poet Ellen Bryant.

mystery history

In a journal describing his 1785 travels to the wilder­ ness of Chimney Point, an Italian nobleman named Luigi Castiglioni wrote that the place was crawling with rattlesnakes. What was once a tavern — and hosted Thomas Jefferson and James Madison — is now a much tamer state historical site. “An Evening to Remember” will consider its long and lively legacy: Native American settlements, French exploration and the Revolutionary War and its aftermath. Guides in period dress, a trivia treasure hunt and other activities await history buffs at a “summer social” without the deadly rep­ tiles. We hope. . •,

Reality television might have got its start in 1925 Kentucky when a media circus surround­ ed the rescue of a man trapped in a cave. Writer Tina Landau and Vermont composer Adam Guettel — grandson of the legendary Richard Rodgers — turned this saga into F loyd C ollins. The hit bluegrass-and-show-tunes musical, which ran off-Broadway five years ago, was praised by N e w York magazine for its “suspense, comedy and social criticism.” Be sure to catch this weekend’s Green Mountain State premiere of the play — unless you’re too busy watching “Spy TV” or “Fear Factor.”

gourdge yourself If major municipalities host most of the best fests in Vermont, the little towns certainly do get creative. Ludlow transforms itself into the “Duchy of Zee” every year for the annual Vermont State Zucchini Festival — a celebration of the gourd that grows in excess at the end of the summer. Look for a craft fair, carnival rides, auto and horse races, an auction, storytelling, live music, a contest for food made with zucchinis and a crowning of the “Duchess of Zee.” Hey, it’s a long winter in Ludlow.

ol ogy

August 16-22 ARIES Mar. 21-Apr. 19): You .Sf**

understand that you can never own love, right? No matter how much someone adores you today, no matter how much you adore someone, you cannot force that unique state of grace to keep its shape forever. It will inevitably evolve or mutate, perhaps into a different version of tender car­ ing, but maybe not. And from there it will continue to change, either into yet another version of reverent affec­ tion, or who knows what else? This is a perfect time to get the hang of prac­ ticing this tricky wisdom, Aries. I do think the chances are good that your current embodiment of love will actu­ ally turn into a new, improved model; but eveft that may require you to be more flexible than feels comfortable at first.

TAURUS

Apr. 20-May 20): To prepare for my pilgrimage to Burning Man in the Nevada desert, I interviewed several veterans o f the annual event. “W hat brought you the most exquisite suffering?” was my favorite question. Lilly replied that it was the sheer intensity of the trans­ formation that Burning Man detonat­ ed in her. “It didn’t provoke a nervous breakdown, exactly,” she said. “More like a nervous breakthrough.” Then there was Jeff, my world-traveling friend. “The overwhelming generosity and kindness of the people at Burning Man were almost too much to bear,” he marveled. “It was a relentless gift, among the most hum ­ bling and enriching experiences I’ve had.” I bring this up, Taurus, because Lilly and Jeff came close to describing the quality of your life in the coming weeks.

GEMINI

May 21-June 20): It’ll be a pretty favorable week to climb mountains in your imagina­ tion, talk faster than a salesman, but with more soul, and pretend your wounds are beautiful tattoos. It’ll be a downright fabulous time to scare yourself with how beautiful you are,

ridicule the seriousness with which you usually judge yourself, and send the one you secretly admire an anonymous note that says, “I’m on fire dreaming of you.” It won’t be such a good week, however, to ride a drugged stallion, stay up all night looking for flying saucers or lost loves, or pine for people who are sit­ ting right next to you.

CANCER

(June 21-July 22): Be more like a cat and less like a dog, Cancerian; more like a luxury ship and less like a freight train; more like a dance and less like an editorial; more like your alter-ego and less like your ego. Can you handle a few more assignments? These will be strictly for extra credit. Be more like a magic wand and less like a Grail cup; more like an early spring and less like a timeless autumn; more like a gypsy and less like a vice-president; more like the person your parents didn’t want you to become and less like the things you love to worry about.

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22): I predict that a bright and bubbly reward will come your way as an indirect result of one of your good deeds. This sweet twist of fate will fuel your growing sense of emotional integration, which will in turn boost your power to translate your highest ideals into practical actions. “T hat’s it?” you may be saying right now. “None of Brezsny’s usual tricks and double meanings?” Nope, Leo, just plain old good news. According to my reading of the astrological omens, you’ve earned a week free of cosmic jokes.

VIRGO

(Aug. 23-Sept. 22): W hat’s the first scene that pops into your imagination when I say the word “initiation?” Do you see a would-be fraternity boy being hazed in a shopping mall, wearing nothing

but diapers while reciting “Mary Had a Little Lamb”? O r do you picture a blindfolded neophyte garbed in a long white robe, head swimming with pungent incense and hair-raising chants, being spun around in circles by a coven’s high priestess? I predict that your own initiation this week will be somewhere between those two extremes* Virgo. Among the terms that will describe it (please choose at least three) are the following: magical, ridiculous, humbling, spooky, fun, transformative, electrifying. The tran­ sition it marks for you will be both subtle and dramatic.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22): At the end of this horoscope I’m going to quote a Zulu proverb that gives rather challenging advice. It may make no sense to you yet. T hat’s because your life lately has resembled a picnic in the suburbs o f paradise. The gods have been conspiring to shower you with blessings, and the steady flow of synchronicity is proof. But soon the cosmic tide will turn. Not for the worse, really. But defi­ nitely in a way that will require more strenuous balancing efforts as you surf the waves of fate. Now I present the Zulu proverb, hoping it will pro­ vide you with a head start. “You have to go fetch the future. It’s not coming towards you, it’s running away.”

SCORPIO

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Last night I dreamed of all the most interesting Scorpio people I’ve ever known. They were gathered in a meadow to watch the sword dances of Michelle Yeoh, the actress who played the older female martial artist in the film Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. The event gradually turned into a kind of pagan revival meeting. Scorpio after Scorpio testified about the fierce blessings they’d been har­ vesting. My friend Jessica rejoiced

that she no longer scared herself. Elliot described how he’d defeated his habit o f projecting his hard-to-admit flaws onto innocent bystanders. Ruby said she’d discovered a psychological trick that immunized her against fears that have no basis in reality. After consulting your current astrological omens, Scorpio, I now offer my inter­ pretation: My dream was a prophecy about your imminent future.

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21): In appreciation of your thoughtful efforts at keeping your •past from becoming your future, I am hereby awarding you with a tempo­ rary Time Travel Permit, good for one roundtrip in any direction. It’s none of my business, of course, what you decide to do with it, though I must be honest and tell you I’d frown on a sentimental visit to your first kiss or your last breath. Instead, please con­ sider using your Permit to journey two months into the future, where you can gather intelligence for this fall’s showdown between Mother Nature and Father Time.

money, clothing, shelter and Jove. Lately, your cravings for | all of these precious things have f} grown to almost superhuman levels, and so have your hungers for a host of bonus pleasures. I have to say, Aquarius, that you seem to be spiraling into ever-greater neediness. Luckily for you, though, this couldn’t have come at a more auspicious moment, because — surprise! — it’s time for the annual Celebrate Your Neediness Festival. During this holi­ day, it’s actually good for you to revel and rejoice and even wallow in your neediest neediness.

PISCES

(Feb. 19-Mar. 20): The smog Hf dissipating from your field o f dreams. The oil slicks are mysteriously disappearing from your stream of consciousness. And I bet if we analyzed your tears, they’d be free of all pesticides, acid rain and selfpity. In fact, the only lingering snag left over from your struggles against psychic pollution is a mechanical problem. It seems your allegorical Fstop on your metaphysical G-spot is jammed. But very soon you’ll find the whimsical X-factor that’ll get it unstuck. You ca n

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22Jan. 19): I’m not opposed to you playing with fire, metaphorically speaking, as long as you’ve studied fire safety and have a fire extinguish­ er, metaphorically speaking. In fact, I’m secretly pleased that normally cautious Capricorns are’considering such crackling good fun. But I would feel even better about sanctioning your creative pyromania if you’d read up on the legend of the phoenix, the bird miraculously reborn from the ashes of a conflagration that con­ sumed its original body. Keep it mythic, baby.

AQUARIUS

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Let’s face it: You’re hopelessly addicted to food, water, air, sleep,

Dear Lola, My boyfriend and I have been together for six months. Right now I am in his bedroom, locked in again because of his stub­ born temper. Whenever I open up to him and express my grievances about cur relationship, he believes I am threatening to break up with him, and holes me up until I take it back. I know I will scon be released upon my apology, but what can I do in the future to make him listen to me? Help, Lola! Trapped in Tunbridge Dear Trapped, How do you spell abuse? If in your mind the word conjures up only physical violence, or maybe a strong verbal lashing, think again. Any man who would respond to his lover’s complaints by locking her up until she apologizes is serious, serious bad news. This is more than a case of his simply not listening. The man obviously lacks the emotional capacity to participate in a healthy partnership. Six months is already too long for you to have been trapped in this relationship. The sooner you break free of him, the better. le w ,
