I Hey, how about a little sympathy for the * Vermont Republican Party? The G O P is the i minority party in both chambers of the | Statehouse in Montpelier, where the Democrats | rule the roost. The governor's a Democrat and I so s the Lite-Governor. Oh, sure, the state trea* surer's a Republican — a real political launchi ing pad, that treasurer's job — | and the secretary of state's a | Republican, too. And take a look at our I Washington delegation. Sure, S Sen. Jim Jeffords is | Republican, but Jeezum Jim's | more popular with Democrats I than he is with the gaggle of * conservatives he serves with. 1 Congressman Bernie Sanders is | neither fish nor fowl, and he's I behaving like he's got a lifetime - j o b in the House of Representa• tives. And Sen. Patrick J. Leahy i has been in the U.S. Senate so | long he's starting to looks like a | face from Mt. Rushmore. St. Patrick and Ol' Bernardo • are up for election in '98, but 1 defeating either one — or even | making it relatively close — I won't be easy for the GOP. * Bernie's likely opponent is the i Born-Again Jack Long. That | would explain the recent ride | WCAX gave Mr. Longshot's • political conversion from " Democrat to Republican four 1 months after it was reported in print. He'll also | receive the maximum monetary contribution | allowable by law from WCAX's head honcho, I Red Martin. Meanwhile, the Leahy camp has been conI cerned that the Republicans will come up with | some millionaire who'll drop a bundle on TV | spots tearing St. Patrick limb from limb. Many „ were hoping IDX whiz Ritchie Tarrant would * take the shot, but he's too smart to fall for it. 1 Now it looks like the G O P has a millionaire in | mind. He's showed up on the radar in | Washington, D.C., sniffing around the a National Republican Senatorial Committee, ® and he's got a pretty impressive resume. The lonly problem is, the dude lives in Mass| achusetts. And he appears to be very bashful. His name is Jack McMullen, and he's a big wheel at the Cambridge Meridian Group, Inc. * A graduate of Harvard Law and Harvard 1 Business School, he advises CEOs on corporate | strategy. Described as a fiftysomething softI spoken, partially bald guy, Bashful Jack has ® already touched base with a few key members i of Vermont's G O P coaching staff. S Allen Martin, the GOP's national commit|teeman, tells Inside Track McMullen came up I to Burlap a couple months ago and met with " him "right in my office overlooking Lake ichamplain." Big Al says Bashful Jack and he | had "a very general discussion about political | issues —- a general philosophical discussion." A I couple of real intellectuals, or what? Yours truly raised the fact that to run I against St. Patrick, one must reside in the state | St. Patrick represents. Big Al says Bashful Jack "has lived in Vermont part of the time for a long time down in the valI ley somewhere — Warren or Waitsfield." 1 Surely Mr. McMullen could trade in his | Massachusetts driver's license for a Vermont one | when the time comes. But so far, McMullen is » not talking. Calls to his Cambridge office last * week were not returned by Bashful Jack. O n 1 Monday Inside Track called one last time. | It was around 5:45 p.m. The secretaries jwere gone, so yours truly punched in Mr. m McMullen's extension number. Lo and behold,

a soft-spoken man answered. "Hello, Jack! Peter Freyne calling from Vermont." "Ah, Jack's not here right now," said the voice. "But his secretary said he'd be back Monday afternoon," says I. "Yes, that's true," says he. "He's back but he's not here right now." "Really?" says I. "So you're not Jack McMullen?" "No," replies the guy who answered McMullen's phone. "Then who are you?" says I. There was a pause. "I'm Mark," says he. And I'm the Man in the Moon? Sounds like Jack McMullen's a little too bashful for a swim in Vermont's political pond. Next day, McMullen's secretary called to say her boss told her to tell Inside Track, "at this time he is not a candidate for U.S. Senate in Vermont." Forgot to ask if "Mark" was considering it. Dean Watch 2000 — It's become pretty obvious that whenever Gov. Howard Dean's weekly schedule states, "there are no public appearances scheduled" for several days at a time, Ho-Ho's working on the campaign. The presidential campaign. Last week Dr. Dean's schedule was blank for Friday through Sunday, but he was making public appearances nonetheless in Florida. The Tampa Tribune reported that Ho-Ho was among a gaggle of White House hopefuls who addressed the annual state conference of Florida Democrats. Al Gore was there, and so was Jesse Jackson. So too were Minnesota Sen. Paul Wellstone and Sen. John Breaux of Louisiana. The Tribune reported that "Jackson and Wellstone, on the liberal side, are balanced by Breaux, former chairman of the conservative Democratic Leadership Council, and Dean, known for mixing stands from both ends." From both ends? Hey, that's our Howard Dean. Clavelle Watch 2000 — So the governor wants to be president. The mayor wants to be governor. And the chief of police wants to be mayor! Gotta love it. Lately there's been a buzz about Mayor Peter Clavelle seeking statewide office. Then last week he pops up as guest host on Tim Philbin's radio show from Rutland. Yep, Mayor Pedro drove all the way to Rutland for that one. "Burlington's not an island," says Clavelle. "I travel around the state on occasion. Even a mayor needs a statewide agenda." As far as a statewide bid goes — and believe me, everybody's got their sights set on 2000, the beginning of the post-Howard Dean Age in Vermont — Clavelle says he has no plans to change his political affiliation from Progressive/Independent to Democrat. At least no plans at this time. As for Chief Kevin Scully, now that he achieved his two most sought-after jewels — a new police station and accreditation for the department — many of the folks in blue say their chief fancies the corner office at City Hall. Bon Voyage — Don Morley passed away last week. He was Burlington's traffic engineer for many years. Don wrote the grant application for the Church Street Marketplace, and he even survived the 1981 revolution, when Mayor Gordie Paquette was replaced by Bernie Sanders. An overflow crowd attended a memorial service in his honor at the Community Boathouse last weekend. ®

I than barn-sized signs for Bucks Furniture. Ballet, for example. J No other burg in Vermont — not even Burlington — supports ! its own resident dance company. Founded by the charismatic | June Gorton, the Wolcott Children's Ballet ha5 operated for j nearly 20 years on the principle that "no child shall be turned ; away." With tough love and a dedication to performance, ! Gorton trained young dancers without stifling their joy of movJ ing to music. "Children dancing for children" is what she was j after — until a stroke put her out of commission at age 74. | Hers was a tough act to follow. A national search turned up | some interesting candidates, but few who could handle the set| ting and salary. Diane Cuattro from Ballet West stayed a year. | Kennett Oberly stayed three before leaving for greener pastures. ! Last year, Alaska-based Brynax Mehl got wind of the job. "It just felt right," says the former artistic director of the Juneau Dance Unlimited. "The philosophy of the place is very much in line with my own: that everyone should dance — not to be professional, but to have that experience, no matter what." Sixtyyear-old Mehl is a walking lesson in dance history. He worked with pioneering choreographers like Charles Weidman, Agnes de Mille and Anna Sokolov, and in the '70s danced with Merce Cunningham, who asked Mehl to take over one of his own solos. "I think I have been one of the luckiest people in the world — ever," Mehl says of his long career, which is now focused on taking Wolcott the next step.

Organic Farming Builds Soil Health Soil is the foundation of the food chain and the primary focus of organic farming. Vermont family farms improve this foundation through crop rotation, green manure and compost applications.

Higher Quality Food Healthy soil produces healthy food. A study by Rutgers University found that "commercially grown non-organic produce is considerably lower in mineral and trace mineral amounts than organically grown produce."

Pesticides are Risky Many EPA-approved pesticides were registered long before extensive research linked these chemicals to cancer and other diseases. Now, the EPA considers 60% of all herbicides (weed

killers), and 30% of all fungicides (mold killers) as potentially cancer causing.

The marketing director of the Vermont Symphony Orchestra arranged to fly Heller from Los Angeles for a booksigning that doubles as a promo for the VSO s Friday night "New Attitudes" series. Heller will sign copies of his Rock and Roll Guide to Classical Music on Monday at Barnes & Noble. "I tried to make it ftin, that was the big objective," Heller says of his book, which covers everything from composer Cliff notes to how to behave at a concert where people are not smoking pot.

necessarily augur the future— especially in an industry that is less predictable than farming — insiders predicted that Dwinell's first test would be his ability to compensate for his own inexperience by bringing an experienced mountain manager on board. On this score, at least, he appears to have passed with flying colors by hiring Barre native Lonnie Sawyer as general manager and resort VP. "He's doing everything on the alpine side, and I let him go with that," says Dwinell, who will concentrate on the nordic trails as well as big-picture items, including the land and the hotel. Sawyer, who spent the past 13 years working his way up the ladder from a college intern to the mountain manager of Mt. Tom ski area in Holyoke, Massachusetts, says Dwinell will succeed on the strength of his will: "He believes it's going to work and that's what it takes," Sawyer says. In turn, Sawyer is rated "an ace in the hole" by his former colleague, assistant general manager at Mt. Tom Dave Hunter. Bolton insiders generally,, give Dwinell credit for hiring Sawyer, and concede management's "playing catch-up" due to the August closing on the deal. But several people familiar was a bargain, the question remains whether a profitable ski with the resort already question the new owner's business area can be operated by instincts.

he first good look the public got of Bolton Valley Resort's new owner, Mason Dwinell, was an above-the-fold, front-page picture in the local daily that caught him cheering his deal with the Lyndonville Savings Bank. The exuberant 27-year-old looked like he'd just won the lottery. But the image most people took from the story — and the headlines highlighting his youth and inexperience — was more of a privileged child clutching an early Christmas present. While much has been made of the Stowe resident's age, family money and the fact that he took nearly a decade to finish college at the University of Vermont, the larger question is how he has been shaped by his formative years and whether he has the skills — never mind the pocketbook — to lead Chittenden County's largest ski area back from bankruptcy. For Dwinell, more than a few ticks of the clock have been spent racing across the snow chasing an Olympic dream in Nordic combined skiing, an event.which pairs cross-country and ski jumping.

Beyond that, Dwinell refuses to discuss the sources of his seed capital, except to say, "As far as financial support, it's in the whole family — private — and the bank." While the $2.5 million purchase price is a considerable amount by some standards, Dwinell acquired the resort for

MEA CULPA

Listen before you buy!

Last week in my review of Stupid Club s new C D , Made to Feet, I mistakenly called it "selfreleased." Silly me. O f course its the latest in the growing Sudden Shame family, and labelmeister Colin Clary deserves kudos for having the vision to get such a swell recording out there. Sorry for the oversight.

Check out any CD on one of our 5 disc players (even new releases and imports)

H O ! H O ! H O ! In this months issue of CM] New Music Monthly, local alt-rocker Andrew Smith (Chin Ho!, (sic)) scores a two-page hit for Burlington, thanks to an entree from Jim Lockridge w h o also shot the photos. In the magazines "localzine" section, he brags on the Queen City (though erroneously reports the size as 6 0 , 0 0 0 , which is about halfway between Burlington's actual population and that of the greater metropolitan area). But whatever. Smith notes the unusual politics — Bernie Sanders, Republicans w h o vote like Democrats and a Democrat w h o had a role in the last Batman movie — but he may not please any of 'em with an implication that marijuana is the "real number-one cash crop up here." But then, our elected officials probably don't read CM]. Smith credits the usual venues, record stores and small local labels, but probably burned some bridges with the comment, "Local radio sucks, mostly, with very few exceptions." Whew, I'm not going there. Most likely any Burlingtonite would offer their own subjective tour of restaurants — his favors the less expensive, but also commends the Daily Planet, Five Spice and Sakura's. Naturally, Smith put in a plug for Big Heavy World, for this publication and our sister music quarterly, 4/4 — after all, he's a co-editor of the latter. And we didn't even bribe him! At any rate, there's no such thing as bad publicity, and the spotlight on B-town is nice — and certainly more accurate overall than recent reports on our fair city as a P.C. paradise.

Chin Ho! makes more news this week with their C D release party — for Low Flying Planes— that isn't quite a C D release party. That is, the C D s won't be done in time, so the band is going to make amends by giving to the first 100 comers a limited-edition cassette cleverly entitled Low Flying Tape. Its contents are, however, some-

what different: It includes a little material that didn't make the C D , two tunes that did — "Low Flying Planes" and "When Everything Explodes" — and an original techno remix of the latter by DJ Frostee. Check out the action this Friday when the Hoimies play with Boston's acoustic rockers M i n d f l o w (sorry, the alsoscheduled Walt M i n k just broke up and won't make the party). O h , and lots o f other Ho! memorabilia from their six-year history is promised. If you miss this gig, maybe you can show your support in Philly — Chin Ho! were chosen to play at the Philadelph ia Music Conference (November 5-8), one of 3 0 0 bands out of 3 0 0 0 . Congrats all round.

SILVER LININGS

T h e Gordon Stone Trio is losing

guitarist D o u g Perkins — he's apparently grown too busy with his two other bands, T h e Mandolinquents and Smokin' Grass. But the g o o d news is replacement Josh Stacey, who's played with G S T bassist A n d y C o t t o n in other incarnations, Screaming Beagle and Green N o t e Jazz Quartet. With a jazz and rock background, Stacey will be wielding both electric and Resophonic guitars — he's still trying to figure out how to amplify the latter — and an acoustic as soon as he procures one. Check out the mean slide. His first G S T gig is this Thursday night at the Metronome, following Royal Fingerbowl and Robben Ford. And by the way, why not call it Gordon Stone Quartet*. — drummers have been sitting in of late, and this week it'll be Chris Kutchukian. Also in the musical chairs department: Burlington hardcore fellas Drowningrnan have announced the departure of guitarist D e n n y D o n o v a n , who's being replaced by former Rocketsledder Daryl Rabidoux. While they work out the kinks, Drowningrnan waits none-too-patiently for their debut release from label Hydra Head — something about faulty pressings. Perhaps to mollify, Hydra has asked the band to do a full-length C D follow-up to the seven-incher. Should be out early next year, barring more incompetence at the plant. G o o d luck.

DHYAN NIRMEGH,

SEVEN DAYS

VERMONT

(self-released, CD) — You may remember Dhyan Nirmegh as the rock protestor from a couple years back — you know, the guy who sat atop rock formations along 1-89 that were scheduled for razing — or at least flat-topping. The tactic helped raise enough outrage that petitions got signed, and some, at least, of the rocks were spared. Well, Nirmegh is far from a rocker in the other sense of the word. Out of Vermont is folkie and homespun through and through; his unvarnished voice heralds the usual topics — love of woman, place, land. His songs are so simple and heartfelt that I can't decide if they're brilliant or daft. One things for certain, Nirmegh hears his own drummer and goes with it. Actually, the drumming in this case is supplied by Eric Foye. Other contributors MfiOi VLRMONT to this 12-song project are Joanna May on back-up vocals, Greg Ryan on guitar, bass and percussion (also producer, at Moon Studio in Rochester), Anne Ryan on piano and Brenda Haley on violin. Nirmegh appears to live the rural, rustic life — aside from forays to a recording studio. In sort of an innocent, childlike, story-telling way, he vows never to leave these hills, and is content with his lover, his mountains and the hard work of a native Vermonter. Though there's a genuine salt-of-the-earth earnestness about Nirmegh, there's also a slighdy mystical element that makes me suspect the plain-speaking woodsman is onto something I'm missing — and besides, he credits "master Osho" for showing him the way to live. Hmmm. It's enough to make me not dismiss this recording altogether, but I can't say I'll put it on the Discman again. Too many bucks running wild and free, and not enough enthralling melodies to secure the tunes in my head. Glad about the rocks, though. ® Want to get r e v i e w e d (no demos, please), SEVEN DAYS, P . O .

MATERNITY

(Solstice Records, cassette) — The good news: Kate Barclays new cassette is not about giving birth. The bad news: the cassette contains only four songs. The singer-songwriter from St. Albans fills this short project with a fecund soprano warble and nimble plucking of both six-string and 12-string guitar. The opener, "All I Want," is as good a come-on as I've heard recently — pregnancy apparently does nothing to dampen lust. "Drink Me" I'm not so sure about; the syncopation is awkward, and I have no idea what this song is about — acoustic balladry shouldn't be so obscure. Its not like you can't hear her lyrics; they're mixed (at Low Tech) loud and clear, and mastered (at Chuck Eller Studio) in such a way that Barclay is at her sultry best. "Can Do" enumerates the things she can't do in an achey growl, only to chirp, Kate Bush-like, what she does best — and I'm not telling. The final tune, titled simply "Its," is a jarring contrast of lively string work and dark imagery about what "it" is like: a little like treading on thin ice.. .flowing down a river and never touching soil. ..a lot of grieving... bleeding.. .and so on. Given the title of this tape, one can't help but project Barclay's thenimpending physical state onto every word, and that's too bad. Otherwise, songs like "It's" might be perceived as what they really are: deliciously, vaguely sinister.

J J ^ ude — Oh, Shit to I I Mother Jones was w J sweet!" I overheard the snowboarder say to his friend as they made their way through the lift line. "Stoked," came the reply. "Red Sled, then the gondola to the Mini-Boos?" Meanwhile, a skier with a day ticket looked at his trail map and then at me as if the two boarders were speaking a foreign tongue. And in a way, they were. That was nearly 10 years ago, when the off-piste playgrounds were cards held close to the vest; semi-secret stashes of powder discussed in code and whispers at nearly every single ski area. But times change. What was once "out-ofbounds," even for discussion, is now one of the hottest topics in the snowsliding industry: glade skiing. After years of widening and grooming trails into concrete boulevards — all the while pulling lift tickets off patrons who wandered the backroads — the ski industry's come nearly full circle. It's as if some barkeating skiers and riders sneaked into a focus group and reminded the corporate-types what drew people to the mountains in the first place: challenge in a natural environment. The marketing folks now tout magazine awards for "Best Glades" or "Best Off-Piste Skiing," and patrollers, for the most part, have been relieved of the duty of selectively enforcing "No Woods Skiing" policies. As Seven Days takes you on an off-piste mini-tour of northern Vermont resorts, our lawyers beg us^to remind you that neither this newspaper nor the author assumes any liability for any unfortunate circumstance you may encounter in the woods, marked or otherwise. To the glades, then, we go.

Jay Peak "We've always had lots of skiers go out-of-bounds here," says Conrad Klefos, vice president for marketing at Jay Peak. "We thought, 'rather than fight 'em, why not find a compro-

survey of Vermont resorts fim skiers taking to the tre mise and have some of these wannabe out-of-bounders inarea, where they'd be safer?'" The result of that thinking, says Klefos, was the cutting of two gladed areas for the 198990 ski season that put Jay on the leading edge of the modern glade experience. Since that initial foray of area-sponsored tree and brush clearing, Jay's put 150 acres in 18 gladed areas on the map.

The irony is that "while other areas are cutting trees to create glades, Mad River's actually planting trees to protect the forest ecosystem, and to make sure existing glades will still be here 20 years from now." - Eric Friedman Mad River Glen One of the people responsible for choosing the routes and cutting the trees is trail maintenance worker Dave Heath. He

also likes to enjoy the fruits of his labor. In the winter, the 45year-old Jay local grooms the trails at night and rides his snowboard through the woods and glades by day. "There's always something to be had up here, if you know where to look," Heath says. Noting that glade skiing can bump up and go "sour," the veteran of 30 years of skiing and riding says earnestly, "We have almost a magic situation of snowfall and wind up here, which always seems to renew the glades." As someone who lives and breathes the mountain, Heath takes the greatest pleasure in the softwood or "alpine-type" glades through balsam firs. Surrounded by walls of evergreens, skiers enter a "zone" where they connect solitary passageways complete with untracked powder, he says. Making the top-three list for Heath are the mile-and-a-quarter Everglade, as well as the rock-and-rolling Vertigo and Valhalla glades.

Mad River Glen "I consider it the highest form of flattery," says Mad River Glen spokesman Eric Friedman. "They're all doing what's worked for us for years. The irony is that while other areas are cutting trees to create glades, Mad River's actually planting trees to protect the forest ecosystem, and to make sure existing glades will still be here 20 years from now." Indeed, while the green light to the forest may be new at some areas, tree-skiing is a well-known tradition at Mad River. The ski area has long

lived by a "3 and 3 Rule," Friedman says. "We just ask that if people go into the woods, they ski in groups of three, so that if something does happen one person can go for help. And we ask people not to go into the woods after 3 so it doesn't get dark on us if a rescue should become necessary." But even Mad River Glen has recognized the need to market its assets: It may have taken 30 years, but Paradise — the area's and perhaps the state's most revered glades trail — has been added to recent trail maps. Beyond Paradise, Lynx and other expert glades, the area known for the motto "Ski it if you can" has embarked on a project to cut 25 new gladed "bands" designed to make the tree-skiing experience accessible to intermediates, says Friedman. "A lot of the woods-skiing I do is outside of the bands," admits Mad River skier Sarah Haviland, "But I think they're a good thing." Haviland, who got her start at the area 20 years ago as a seven-year-old, also recommends that less-experienced skiers try the glades off Gazelle. "They're a nice open shot and not too long," she says, "so they're a- good place for people to get used to the trees."

Smugglers' Notch In many respects, the area that has carved the sharpest turnabout on riding in the trees is "America's Family Resort"— Smugglers' Notch. Last year, Smuggs' officially opened all terrain within their boundaries, including the Black Hole, with its heady 67.5-percent grade through Freefall Woods. A constellation of factors — including competition, information regarding risk and the relatively low cost of opening up significant acreage — contributed to the decision to make skiing between the trails legal at the Jeffersonville resort, say Public Relations Director Barbara Thomke. WTiile 750 acres of skiable terrain and the only tripleblack-diamond trail in the East might provide good advertising fodder in Boston, it wasn't necessarily a popular move with the tight-lipped locals. "Sad to" see it marked," Underhill skier Steve Nickerson says of the Black Hole. "That used to be my secret stash.. .now it's gone commercial."

Kim Brown, isn't about to draw you any maps, but he's more than willing to talk about the legendary Back Bowls and even Oh, Shit and Red Sled. "There's plenty of room in the woods for everyone," says Brown, who spent more than a 100 days in and out of the woods last season. "I encourage people to ski the woods," he says. "If they don't like it, they'll get out of there pretty quick." Brown and other Stowe regulars can afford to be generous; they ski on Mt. Mansfield. Not only is Mansfield Vermont's highest peak, but it has something on the order of 5000 acres of terrain. Of course, that's what worries Stowe s ski patrol and area management, which maintains that the skiing is limited to the 480 acres on the trail map. "I'm a rabid woods skier," insists Marketing Director Mike Colbourn, "and there's plenty of woods on the map." You wouldn't expect Stowe to voluntarily increase its liability — it's the only ski area owned by an insurance company. To Stowes credit, the challenging Tres Amigos and Lookout glades have recently

been added to the map, which has depicted the pristine Slalom Glade off Nosedive for over 60 years. Many of the routes intrepid skiers and riders now follow — in places like Angel's Food and on the Bruce Trail — were actually once official trails cut by Stowe's skiing pioneers, Brown notes.

ing. To complete the marketing package as only Sugarbush can, they called the new glades "Eden." Truth be told, there were lightly gladed to tighdy spaced trees at Sugarbush before there was Eden — the resort identified nine trails with enough bark to put on a pack and call it the "Adventure Trail System." Geographically, the trails span the breadth of the resort, from Moonshine to Brambles, and range in difficulty from the aptly named Sleeper and Paradise. In between, guided tours into the Slidebrook area yield 1600 vertical feet with a true backcountry feeling. The gladers' glader has got to be local extreme skier and Sugarbush ambassador John Egan. "Every time Warren Miller's been here," he confesses, "we do the filming off the map." One of the classic unmarked routes, and an Egan favorite, is the Wedding Trail, cut when former owner Roy Cohen gave everybody a day off to celebrate his wedding. "My super-duper favorite is called The Fugitive," Egan says with relish, "But I ain't tellin' you where that is!"

Dynastar took over manufacturing at its facility in Chamonix, France. Meanwhile Herb George, another local designer and now one of the art gurus at Jager DiPaola Kemp, suggested heightening the boards' aesthetic by recruiting some of the country's finest post-Basquiat art laureates. s

Born from Dynastar Ski's lust for the snowboarding market — although the connection was initially downplayed because of the rift between skiing and boarding clientele — Original Sin was destined for dichotomy. By taking street graphics to the slope and putting the art on top of the board where the rider could . enjoy it, the company was able to raise hell against an already god-like competition. Recalcitrance inadvertently turned into a marketing plan. And when interested retailers and consumers inevitably ask how the brand compares to Burton, the answer is part of the design. "The art draws attention to the board, so it had to stand up performancewise," explains Sales Manager Dan Sullivan, a former snowboard instructor at Sugarbush who was recruited by Dynastar as one of five "original sinners." In some sense, he adds, it was a risky approach. But well worth it. Back in 1992, Sullivan and then-product manager Chris Mask, who recendy made an exodus to Burton, created Original Sin in two weeks. "The first goal was to have a brand that could stand on its own," Sullivan says. "It was considered uncool

Campbell is comfortable on any kind of plane, from largescale murals reduced to minutiae and, obviously, 747s. The largesse of his work appears on this year's Twister series. The San Francisco-based Chris Johanson, on the other hand, is heavy into reality. "I want people to see a drunk on the street and get bummed out by how lonely that person is," he says. His work captures these types of random scenes and interactions while examining "the male battle to be humble." Also a designer for Anti Hero Skateboard^, johanson translated his "Devil Man" motifs for Original Sins Alphabet collection. Andy Jenkins adds comic relief with his "Blue Man" and "Orange Man" contribution to the Alphabet line. This 'zine editor and art director ' - for Girl • <•"••'and - •. Vv, c •, Chocolate Skateboards says that he "dabbles in fatherhood."

And finally, theres Phil Frost — a self-described "civil servant" who treks out into the Sonoran Desert to draw elongated aliens on dilapidated vans. He encourages people to "make it easy on yourself," and his Team series graphics foster that philosophy. Frost has been featured on MTV, Subliminal Skateboards, Elektra Records and in Paper magazine. He also recently had a one-man show at Burlington's Exquisite Corpse Artsite. Surprisingly, perhaps, ists appeal to more - their

ON COLUMBUS DAY WEEKEND, ONCE ACAIN THE ELEGANT, WHITE XAMELOT'TENTS OF CRAFTPRODUCERS STOWE FOLIAGE CRAFT FESTIVAL WILL RISE UNDER THE RESPLENDENT FOLIACE IN THE BREATHTAKING SETTING OF TOPNOTCH FIELD ON ROUTE 108. TWO HUNDRED OF THE FINEST COMTEMPORARY ARTISTS AND ARTISANS WILL BE OFFERING WORK IN ALL ART AND CRAFT MEDIA IN COLORFUL ^BOOTHS STRETCHING DOWN THE AISLES OF THE HEATED TENTS. AS ALWAYS, THE QUALITY OF THE CRAFTS IS IMPRESSIVE, THE ATMOSPHERE IS LIVELY, THERE'S GREAT MUSIC, MAGIC, WONDERFUL FOOD AND EDUCATIONAL CRAFT DEMONSTRATIONS: THERE REALLY IS SOMETHINC FOR EVERYONE, AFFORDABLE AND DISTINCT. THE BRISK NEW ENGLAND AIR BEARS A SUGGESTION OF THE HOLIDAY SEASON TO COME, AND WITH IT THE REMINDER THAT A HANDMADE GIFT IS THE BEST GIFT OF ALL THE FESTIVAL IS A MECCA FOR ANYONE WHO STILL CONSIDERS THAT CHOOSING A DISTINCTIVE PRESENT FOR A FAMILY MEMBER OR FRIEND CAN STILL BE i f ACCOMPLISHED WITH JOY AND RESPECT. K^'; SOME OF THE WORKS SEEN HERE ARE PRODUCED SOLELY BY ONE INDIVIDUAL AS A UNIQUE WORK OF ART, OTHH&*$M A STUDIO WHICH LIMITS THE QUANTITY OF "-^'TiCAL ITEMS, AND STILL OTHERS BY A 'PRODUCTION TEAM" UNDER THE GUID: OF ONE OR MORE DESIGNERS. THERE ARE HIGHLY FUNCTIONAL PIECES : 4CLUDING COLORFUL DINNERWARE, STURDY FURNITURE, CASUAL CLOTHING AND PRECIOUS OR SEMI-PRECIOUS JEWELRY CREATED WITH SEMI-PRODUCTION METHODS THE AIM HERE IS TO STANDARDIZE THE SIZE OF A SOUP BOWL,TOT EXAMPLE TO MAKE SURE THE CHAIRS OF A DINING SET MATCH OR TO KEEP THE COST DOWN ON A SIMPLE GOLD EAR LOOP. OTHER KINDS OF WORK, FUNCTIONAL OR NOT, ARE MORE SUITED TO BEING PRODUCED IN EDITIONS. THE ARTIST DECIDES ON THE QUANTITY OF WORK HE OR SHE WISHES TO CREATE AND LIMITS THE SCOPE OF THE SERIES PRODUCING, FOR EXAMPLE, TWENTY-FIVE STAINED GLASS WALL HANGINGS IN A SPECIFIC SHAPE AND PATTERN. A JACKET COULD BE DESIGNED FOR A CERTAIN SILK, ITS NUM- « BERS LIMITED BY THE AMOUNT AVAILABLE. A PRINT MAKER MIGHT USE A STONE FOR A SEQUENCE OF LITHOGRAPHS ASSIGNING SEQUENTIAL NUMBERS TO EACH ONE AT TIMES, EVEN LIMITED EDITIONS ARE TOO CONSTRICTING FOR AN ARTIST WHO CONCEIVES OF A PIECE AS AN ABSOLUTELY UNIQUE ONE-OF-A-KIND ARTWORK. HERE THE DEFINITION Ot "CRAFTS* TUMBLES OVER INTO'ART' AND A PIECE OF GLASS IS BLOWN FOR ITS BEAUTY, A WATERCOLOR PURSUED FOR THE EXPERIENCE OF THE EXPLORATION AND A PIECE OF FURNITURE CONSTRUCTED OUT OF A SENSE OF PURE FANTASY. WHILE OFTEN THE MORE "UNIQUE' PIECES ARE HIGHER PRICED, REFLECTING THE LABOR AND CREATIVITY WHICH ARE POURED INTO ITS CONCEPTION, THE PRODUCTION-MADE ITEM, PRICED TO BE AFFORDABLE TO MANY, IS NO LESS ESTIMATE.

THE OBJECT IS TO OFFER A RANGE OF WORK MADE IN VARIOUS METHODS, PRICED APPROPRIATELY AND AESTHETICALLY ENTRENCHED, SOMETHING "OF VALUE' FOR EVERYONE. CONSIDER, AS A GIFT FOR A GOURMET FRIEND, A JAR OF PRIZED "MADE IN VERMONTSPECIALTY CONDIMENT. OR PERHAPS YOU SHOULD THINK OF A BRIGHTLY GLAZED SALAD BOWL? A SILK-SCREENED APRON? A WILD CANDELABRA TO GRACE THE TABLE' THE TABLE ITSELF? BE ASSURED THAT YOUR GIFT WILL BE VALUED.

At 71, drummer Roy Haynes is a jazz legend who's never skipped a beat, always one step ahead of where jazz is going. In the '40s he played with the mastersâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;Armstrong, Coltrane, Parker, and Monk. In the '90s young lions like McBride and Redman seek him out for "the sheer force, energy, and brilliance" of his playing. Joining him at the Flynn is his hot quartetâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;Donald Harrison, sax; Dave Kikoski, piano; and Ed Howard, bass.

By Hal 11 e McEyoy skied all over Vermont and New Hampshire last winter, and my favorite day of skiing was at the Middlebury Snow Bowl. Yep, the Snow Bowl, one of the oldest — and smallest — ski areas in Vermont. Officially opened in 1939 with a rope tow, it is one of the states best-kept secrets. But make no mistake about it — this is a small mountain that skis like a big resort. Besides, how can you not love an area that serves up books in the base lodge instead of beer? * Although the Snow Bowls trail map modestly lists only 15 trails, in reality there are more. Unlike most modern ski areas, the Snow Bowl does not name every connector and cross-over trail that evolves from the main ones. There are, for instance, two large, unnamed loops off the Proctor Trail alone. In addition, all trails keep the same name from top to bottom. If this was an American Skiing Company area, it would probably boast 30 or even 40 trails by naming all the offshoots.

terrain. Even the staff at the Snow Bowl is refreshingly down-toearth. Peter Mackey began working in the ski shop 20 years ago and worked his way up to General Manager. Having performed nearly every job at the area, he knows well what sets the Snow Bowl apart. "We try to promote a family atmosphere," Mackey says. "We're probably the biggest baby-sitting service in,the county. Parents feel comfortable leaving their kids here, or skiing with them." Mackey thinks the Snow

respectable. There are two Poma double chairs on the front side of the mountain — the Worth Mountain Double and the Sheehan Chair, named after Bobo Sheehan, a longtime ski coach at the area — and a CETC lift on the back side, the Bailey Falls Triple. The Snow Bowl boasts a good mix of beginner to expert trails, including two FIS-rated slalom trails, the Ross and the Allen. The ski season generally runs about 100 days, from December 15 to the end of March — although the last few seasons have extended into April. The lift tickets — and the food — are priced low. Adults pay $28 for a weekend fullday ticket, $22 for halfday. Seniors over 70 ski for free, and children six and under pay just $6. The all-day rate for students is $20, $15 for half-day. Weekdays are one of the great bargains in Vermont skiing: a full-day pass for only $20. Season passes are also reasonable. So what does the future holdforthe Middlebury Snow Bowl? "I dont foresee much change in the overall feel of the place," says Mackey. "We will upgrade the facilities from time to time, and keep producing we can. the

BOLTON REBORN? "

Continued from page 20 ""

Dwinell's change in the areas name — it is now known as the Bolton Resort. The classic block-letter logo has been replaced by a more modern design featuring the word "BOLT" and the letter "N," separated by a bolt of lightning. "It looks like a Deadhead snowboarder bought the place," comments one older skier. "The new logo is designed to present a fresh start and a vibrant new image," says Bolton marketing spokesperson Bobby Kyle, although she was unable to address any legal issues that might have precipitated the name change. As for the snowboarder charge, Dwinell actually prefers to do his downhill riding on telemark skis. He is, though, an avid surfer who says he gave up the good "break" of the West in favor of the good life, and people, of Vermont. Nearly everyone associated with Bolton, including Dwinell and his marketing department, have spoken freely of their desire to provide an affordable place for average Vermonters and families to ski and ride. To this end, the area introduced reduced-rate Vemonter day

tickets, and held the line on many "regular season" family pass rates this year. However, for the first time, Bolton will be one of the few areas to charge preschoolers for using the mountain. And, due to the resort s late start, the loss of two traditional "early-bird" discount deadlines could cost a family of four $100 more than last seasons lowest price.

hile Bolton is in the business of selling lift tickets, most people in snow country understand that the real money is ir. real estate. Bolton Resort's master plan, approved by the town in the mid-'80s, for instance, would allow development of an additional 734 acrcs of property for ski area expansion, as well as a golf course and approximately 1500 additional units of singleand multi-family housing, among other projects. Although a long road separates a master plan from reality — including various Act 250 speed bumps — the long-term potential of the Dwinell holdings is nothing short of enormous, say those familiar with local real estate.

A linchpin in the value of the property has always been the failed highway interchange proposal, because it holds the potential to make Bolton

Valley not only a more competitive resort but a more . „ attractive bedroom community — which, Dwinell notes, is just 20 miles from Burlington. And while that project may have been read its last rites by the Dean administration last summer, it's a given that in politics and highway projects — like in horror movies — nothing is ever really dead. Surely Dwinell's father, who was once a Stowe real estate developer and a political operative for Gary Hart, understands this fact. And the younger Dwinell, who's regularly characterized as a human incarnation of the Energizer rabbit, also seems to have an appreciation of the ebb and flow of the universe's most basic elements as well as the property owner's reliance on location, location, location. As a devoted student of feng shui, the Chinese art of placement and subsequent energy patterns, it may not be a stretch to imagine Dwinell rather like a young monk sitting atop the mountain. What remains to be seen, however, is if he'll humble himself enough to learn his lessons and make Bolton an epicenter of power with a strong foundation, or if he'll reign over a house caught in a steep downhill slide.

Yorker magazine, was published shortly before Lucas committed suicide a couple of months ago. For the record, Haywood was acquitted — an enormous victory for labor that was carefully watched even in Europe. He then went on to found the Wobblies. At first, Moats was simply surprised that such a politically charged trial involving the founder of a controversial organization could take place in innocent little Boise — he remembered it from visits to his grandparents as "the quintessential small town." But as he continued to read up on Haywood, Moats was taken even more with "the idea of being locked away from all the beauty and good things," as Haywood was while awaiting his trial. "It wasn't so much the political content of who he was as the nature of A Rage of Dreaming Sheep, who he was," by D a v i d M o a t s , Moats explains. p e r f o r m e d by t h e Thus his plays Mi d d l e b u r y set directions highCommuni t y Players.

ome historical plays and novels are written out of a sincere desire on the part of the writer to explore or explain an era, a political movement, a scientific discovery. Others are born from a misguided belief that if set in a different time — with actors wearing period clothes and affecting historically accurate usage — a play's flaws won't be noticed by the audience. But the most successful historical fiction is often that which, like all good fiction, arises from the mysterious, indescribable realm of the writer's imagination. Such is the case with David Moats' new play, A Rage of Dreaming Sheep, performed next week by the Middlebury Community Players. The same troupe performed his last play — The Age of Dinosaurs— in 1994. Six years earlier Moats won the Vermont Playwrights' Award for Hard News. The play involves union activist Big Bill Haywood, best known for his role in the Workers of the World, aka "the "Wobblies," in the early 20th century On the surface it sounds like it could be a boring, didactic treatise even as it educates '90s theater-goers about an important chapter in American labor history. But this play isn't "about the Wobblies" any more than Camus' The Plague is "about the plague." Moats has taken a real union leader and created a fictional world around him. He builds

The playwright has invented a young woman named Helen Davenport, who is captivated by Haywood's union spirit and writes to him in jail. In close attendance are her cohorts: an aunt who runs the boarding house and her boarders — who supply a nice subplot as well as some humorous moments. The woman's father, a pivotal role played by Steve Small, is a rancher who provides a steady and

Moats was taken with the deao )eing ocked away from all the

complex counterpoint to Haywood. The fullness of these characters is a testament to Moats' talent. After he completed the play, his mother told him that his grandmother had come down to Boise to work in a boarding house, early in the century, just as does his lead female character. It could be, Moats acknowledges, that a story about his grandmother's escapades sank deep into his childhood subconscious, only to emerge years later as the subtext for a play. But Moats leaves these matters to the audience to ponder, certain only that Haywood's Boise connection would intersect with his own life somehow. "A play has its out elements, the setting, th6 time wriod, et cetera," says Moats, and its inner elements, the fictional characters, which had to emerge from me into this setting and time period. The interesting part is where ones own story enters in." (D

m Bv Marc Awodev eter and Irene Ludwig were not your average art collectors. The recently deceased Professor Peter Ludwig was a major German industrialist whose empire of chocolate companies unified the capitalist West and the communist East long before it was safe to take a sledgehammer to the Berlin Wall. Although Ludwig himself stated in a 1985 interview that "in principle we do not combine economic interests with our activities in the cultural field," his cozy relationship with the former East German State Art Trading Agency raised more than a few eyebrows in his lifetime. Considering the richness of his confectionery ties to regimes in the Eastern bloc, it's not surprising that the motives for his personal version of cultural detente were occasionally called into question. "Drawing Transfigured," now showing at the Fleming Museum, is the third exhibit benefiting from Ludwig's unique relationship with the Museum — a bond formed via his business ven"Drawings tures in the state T r a n s f i gured: some years ago.

The selection, from the Ludwigs' personal collection, has everything from shamanistic scraps by Josef Beuys to a student work by con-

temporary New York performance artist Laurie Anderson and an innocent little watercolor by Jean Dubuffet. But perhaps the most intriguing pieces are the many working sketches, conceptual proposals and intimate drawings that seem to have been produced for purely personal reasons. An example in the latter category is "Portrait of Richard Hamilton," by British artist David Hockney. The delicacy of this portrait is unrivaled within the show. Hamilton was also an artist, and Hockney has taken special care to suggest that Hamilton's sensitive hands convey his true personality. Hockney's quality of line and impeccable draftsmanship are equal to any passage found within the most elegant drawings by Matisse or Picasso. Swedish-American artist Claes Oldenberg created many studies for his monumental sculptures of mundane objects, and it is refreshing to see one of them presented on its own merits. His 1967 sketch for "Soft Set of Drums" details a conceptual framework for the sculpture. Its classically organized mound of forms is described by confident transitions of value.

ARIZS

(Mar. 21-Apr. 19): I figure your week ahead will probably have something in common with that rollercoaster malfunction in Belgium a few weeks back. Did you hear about it? In the middle of a loop-the-loop, the cars came to a dead stop, stranding riders upside-down. They were all rescued and unhurt (as I believe will be the case with you), but only after a long interlude of feeling very up in the air. One good thing: The world will probably make much more sense to you after you view it turned on its head for a while.

TAURUS

(Apr. 20-May 20): I really like the fact that in 1997 National Coming Out Day falls on the same day as Yom Kippur, the Jewish Day of Atonement: October 11. I think all of us should repent for the times we've tried to keep people in the closet or forced them to be different from who they really arc. Given your astrological aspects, Taurus, expiation is more crucial for you than any other sign of the zodiac, and you're also most likely to succeed at it. So if you're even the tiniest bit homophobic, please seek the forgiveness of gays and lesbians; if you've censored or inhibited the free expression of your parents or children, make amends; and

Kiss them as if you were kissing God. And bless them with the same sparkle and sass you did when you were first trying to get them to love you.

CANCCR (June21-July 22): After suffering a serious illness before her second birthday, Helen Keller became deaf, dumb and blind. With the miraculous help of her teacher Anne Sullivan, she learned to speak and read Braille. Eventually she became a famous writer, lecturer and humanitarian. I bring this up, Cancerian, because you now resemble Helen right before she met Anne. On the one hand, you're oblivious to the world's beauty, you're almost inexhaustible in your capacity to shut out the inornate presence of God; and your relendess drive to rely on old formulas has made you resistant to learning anything new. On the other hand, you're on the threshold of a spectacular opening. Any minute now, ffered the chance to glimpse

VIRGO

(Aug. 23-Sept. 22): I'm afraid that as long as you live you'll never enjoy a whole lot of the dumb luck garnered by naive simpletons like Forrest Gump or Chance the Gardener (from the movie Being There). You're just too damn smart, Virgo — sometimes too much so for your own good. But having said that, I must make a semi-exception for the coming week. You now have an opportunity to be as raw and basic and uncomplicated as it's possible for you to get. And if you can pull it off with a straight face, there'll be rich surprises. I I B R A (Sept. 23*Oct. 22): Many years ago, when I was working as the night janitor at India Joze restaurant in Santa Cruz and scrawling hippie poetry about the glories of steamy mop water, I never imagined I'd one day have a gig as the Astrologer Laureate of the alternative press. And I predict that a comparably huge transformation will be available to you, Libra, if you launch the process in the next four weeks. True, it may take you 11 long years to accomplish the magic, but that'll be part of the fun.

(Nov 22 Dec

21): You always deserve treats and wonders, Sagittarius, but especially now. If it were in my power, I'd make sure you had the luck and skill to slide down bannisters without ever getting a splinter; I'd give you dreams that revealed how to get high without downing a single dose of poison; I'd track down a beastie mask you could wear to scare away your boogieman; and I'd make sure there was a surprise lying under your pillow every morning for the next 10 days. Alas, none of these gifts are within my province. Here's the best I can do: I promise, over the next 12 months, to help you develop the unheard-of ability to be as smart about love as you are about everything else in your life. No one else I know has anything close to that magic power.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan, 19): At various times in my life, psychics have told me that I'd win a Grammy for mv music, that I was the King of Atlantis in one of my past lives, and that I would marry Julia Roberts.

AQUARIUS

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Imagine you have a very demanding fairy godmother. Before she'll swoop down and shower you with goodies, she wants proof that you've taken thorough advantage of the last batch of gifts she gave you. Furthermore, she's more likely to bless you if you've recently made a dramatic display of living up to your highest standards or obeying the difficult biddings of your conscience. I bring this up, Aquarius, because I believe the planet Jupiter has an influence much like this exacting fairy godmother. And what's that got to do with you? After almost four months of retrograde motion, Jupiter is once again full speed ahead in your sign. I take this to mean that you'll soon receive a whole slew of sweet help — if you prove you're worthy.

PIS CCS (Feb. 19-Mar. 20): It would be a good week to learn how to land a 747, use creative strategies to emerge victorious in office intrigues, and to heed Oscar Wildes dictum, "One should always be a litde improbable." On the other hand, it'll be a bad week to sit on rotting laurels, steal something that already belongs to you, or forget to drink your coffee before a big rite

PAPER TRAIL

A Berliner, Baselitz has lived on both sides of the barbed wire. His work was scorned in East Berlin; in West Berlin it was considered obscene and was confiscated by the police. But his 1963 study for "Down the Drain" is an early example of the style of painting that would turn the art world on its head nearly 20 years later. The awkward distortions, lack of liebenstraum, and colors reminiscent of muc and blood — which became hallmarks of German painting in the 1980s — are fully bloomed in this sketch. The drawing is a harbinger of the struggles Anselm Kiefer, Markus Lupertz, A.R. Penck and others would face to exor cise totalitarian ghosts from the heart of European culture. They did this by digging up the corpses and inviting ther

Continued from page 33 shapes and lines, and the whole thing has the mass of a pyramid of feather pillows. The great public artist Christo uses photography, fabric and whatever is nearby to describe his proposals for monumental outdoor art. But in a large study for "Packed Coast," it's obvious that he's a master draftsman, too. His subject here is the landscape, but he ignores that genre's conventions to interact with the site on a more personal level. A panoramic photo of the coastal bluffs is less informative than the artist's dynamic drawing style documenting his response to the environment. Like Christo, Nancy Graves was an earth-centered artist | who seems to interact on a personal level with the land.

By Margaret L e v l n e Young and J o r d a n Young ow that the weather is beginning to turn cold, when do we get to ski? Is that snow on the tops of the mountains out there? Determining skiing conditions is tricky business, and just the kind of thing the Internet can be terrific for: Snow quality changes daily — if not hourly — and if a Web site is really good, you ought to be able to see a picture of where you're going and make your own judgment. The folks at the Resorts Sports Network (www.rsn.com) in Maine figured that you might want to look up your resort before you leap. Through the miracle of the modern Internet, cameras at a couple dozen resorts around the country enable you to see what's going on. Of course, you need to bear in mind that the resorts just might be putting their best snow forward — this is, after all, marketing. And you might think you'd be finding up-to-the-minute snow reports on RSN, but most resorts in Vermont apparently did not sign up for this service. However, if you look under RSN's "Resort Cams," you'll

find images from the following resorts. We followed their links, and, where we could find them, the addresses offer ski conditions specifically:

Killington: Just for the heck of it, we clicked on snow conditions, and, by golly, there were the eternal optimists at Killington reporting 4 to 6 inches of snow on the Rime trail. They were realistic about it, though: "Some thin spots and some walking required, but it is October." If you're suffering from snow withdrawal, this is the place to be. (Conditions: www.rsn.com/cams/killton/sno w/snowfull.html; Killington: www.killington.com) Stratton: At the other extreme from Killington, Stratton's Web site proudly declares that they will "open no trail before its time" — in this case 18 inches on beginners' trails and up to 30 inches on advanced trails. So instead of a snow report, there's an intriguing picture of a diner being delivered to the mountain.

(www.stratton.com/stratton/ht ml/new-snowreport.htm) Stowe (area): If you're wondering what to do when you're done skiing, this is the Web site to check out. Stowe bunnies noted 2 or 3 inches of natural snow as of last weekend, but were not so unrealistic as to suggest you ski on it. But posted pictures prove it's nice to look at. The resort is also promising condition updates on their Web page and have even got a list of Frequently Asked Questions. Very Netsawy. (www.stowe.com/smr/ index.html) Sugarbush: The picture on RSN listed some "current" events for dates past, but the picture was good, and the area did boast about making snow on September 21. (sugarbush.com/

sugarbush/html/newsnowreport.htm) Mt.

Click a name and you'll get an up-todate ski report, including how many trails are open, snow depth, new snow, mountain conditions and hours of operation. If the ski area has its own home page, you'll see a link to it. Of course, getting info on the Yahoo! page to match up with info on the ski area's home page is a trick that Internet Web masters have not yet managed. Consider yourselves warned. So much for the corporate side of the Internet. We like to think that the Net is still about people getting in touch with each other — that's what Internet mailing lists are all about. And plenty of people in this state are interested in snow. We talked to our favorite Vermont skier-cum-Web-surfer, Dave Guertin. Sure enough, he pointed us to his favorite emailing list, SKIVT-L. Check out the UVM-based Web page at mole.uvm.edu/skivt-L. Established in 1994, they claim to be the oldest ski-related Web site in the known universe, a place where over 300 skiers yak about their favorite sport. These days, of course, everyone on the list is jonesing for — what else? — snow. Happy sliding. (Z) Margaret Levine Young is coauthor o/lnternet for Dummies tfWMore Internet for Dummies.

The audience may wince or cover their faces, but the camera is unflinching. Fleder's picture, on the other hand, takes place in a relatively unthreatening, TV-movie sort of PG universe, where pathlogy is inferred rather than allowed out of its cage. As a result, the film winds up relying on tricks, cliche and twists to create its impact. At the very end, just when its makers want to shock us the most, the film impresses least, collapsing into an almost hilarious near-parody of bogus surprise endings.

Dear Lola, I'm really worried about my mother. Since my parents divorced a number of yean ago, 6he seems to be trying on different selves. First, she went to a nudist colony and didn't tell any of us. Then, she went through an only-date-sailcrs phase. Now, she's married to a ballroom dancing gigolo. She refuses to talk about anything besides dancing. What should I do? — Jaded in Jericho DearJaded, Nothing. Family members who think they know best annoy me to no end. Let her enjoy herself in any capacity or venue. Her refusal to converse, however, is another issue. And you are well within you're rights to say, "Mother, I'd like to talk about something besides Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers." But don't forget it takes two to tango, you and your siblings share responsibility for the shut down. She'd probably like to expand her lexicon outside of the ballroom. Give her the space to strut more than her stuff. With love,
