ODD-STRANGE, CURIOUS AND WEIRD BUT TRUE NEWS ITEMS FROM EVERY CORNER OF THE GLOBE PRETZEL LOGIC The attorney for accused wife-killer Dean Eric Wride protested an order by a Winnipeg, Manitoba, court that his client undergo routine psychiatric tests before his trial, insisti ng that such treatmen t might inadvertently cure Wride, jeopardizing his insanity defense.

gondola serenades by allowing three boats punting side by side to share a singer and an accor dion player.

FRUITS OF RESEARCH Scientists probing a primi tive microbe have identified it as a new form of life. The microbe was discovered when oceanographers located an undersea volcanic vent that was spewing a dense white cloud of matter. They collect ed the material and . found it to be a strange and unknown one-celled organism belonging to the class called Archaea, which is distinct from Earths two other known life forms: bacteria and blue-greenalgae on the one 1— *—the members A-r ? of hand and -* all the plant and animal kingdoms on the other. According to pre liminary research, the organism can withstand radiation 4000 times the dose that would be fatal to any human, thrives at temperatures below the freezing point and above the boiling point of water, and eats metal.

Twice in November, David Michael Pecard, 34, flashed a deputy sheriffs badge and checked women prisoners out of an Arizona jail, explaining he needed to question them about a recent inmate uprising. Instead, the women said, he fondled one o f them in a conference room at the Maricopa Vfj County Sheriffs Department and groped the other on a secluded street near the jail. Pecard turned out to be no sheriff s deputy. Nor was he the FBI agent, the U.S. marshal or the Defense Department investigator he alternately claimed to be. He had bluffed his way into the department run by the man who calls himself Americas toughest sheriff. “Ive come across some phony cops in 35

Sam Campana admitted calling 911 about six times to get directions to city functions, including a night in August when emergency lines were clogged after storms caused extensive power outages. Police Chief Michael Heidingsfield sent the mayor a memo the next day, politely reminding her that 911 is for emergencies.

When a 32-year-old woman was admitted to a London hos

pital with chronic diarrhea and intestinal pain, doctors could find nothing to explain her condition — until she men tioned that she was a flight attendant and chewed up to 60 sticks of sugarless gum a day. According to the British med ical journal Lancet, each stick of gum contains 1.25 grams of the sugar substitute sorbitol, which acts as a laxative.

RESCUE US Some 225 walruses tried to waddle to their death at Alaska’s Togiak National Wildlife Refuge this summer. Wildlife officials reported that although they were able to divert 155 of the marine mam mals, 70 others tumbled from a 200-foot cliff above their nor mal resting beach. • Coast Guard crew members responding to a report of a floundering whale in shallow waters four miles off Key West, Florida, rescued a four-footlong plastic whale. According to Coast Guard spokesperson Lt. J.G. Rich Condit, the per son who reported the stranded whale apparently was fooled by the black-and-white inflatable toy with “Shamu” printed on its side.

I YEAR-END CLEANUP Dear Cecil, Did they really uproot ol’ McGill University from Montreal, with all those ancient buildings, and move it to Toronto? Or is G. Dellaire, who wrote you about Rh factor, so much of an idiot that he doesn’t know where he lives? — Jeff Stein, via the Internet G. Dellaires note did not indicate the city of origin, so we inserted it, based on where we thought McGill University was. It appears we were a little off. Its always distressing to see that the universe has drifted out of alignment with this columns conception of it, and we mean to make amends. As I see it, the options basically boil down to: (1) Move the university, or (2) Blame little Ed. Little Ed having balked at option two, this may not be a matter we can quickly resolve. So for now lets say that what you have up there in Quebec is McGill University at Toronto, Montreal branch.

I know I’ve heard this both ways. Every dictionary I consulted says schwantz means penis, but I’ll admit there are some people who under stand it to mean the female organ. The Straight Dope apologizes for'any romantic mishaps this may have occasioned.

KICK IN THE YEAR C ontinued from page 1 By the third week of January, open warfare had bro ken out among the Democrats. Dean publicly labeled the Senate’s liberal Dems, Liz Ready, Cheryl Rivers and Dick McCormack, “the usual sus pects.” Ho-Ho was royally pissed that the trio had tried to gut his health care for the poor plan, and told Inside Track, “On critical issues like health care they vote with the Republicans. I don’t consider Elizabeth Ready a Democrat. ” A lot of people don’t consid er Howard Dean a Democrat, either. And this year, with the Dems in the majority in the state senate, McCormack is poised to become majority leader, Rivers is about to be named chair of the Finance Committee, and Chainsaw Ready will become chair of the Senate Natural resources Committee. No bumps in the road this year, right? January wrapped up with a shocking report that Free Press columnist Sam Hemingway’s Christmas tear-jerker poster child actually was a convicted criminal with a rap sheet longer than Sam’s nose. Tsk, tsk. It’s a terrible job, but someone’s got to do it. FEBRUARY — The lawsuit brought by former reporter Paul Teetor against The R u rlin g to n Free Press was inch ing toward trial. Representing the Freeps in court at that point was the Prince of Darkness himself, Bob Rachlin of Downs Rachlin & Martin — Vermont’s largest law firm. Using the column on Sam Hemingway’s fiction writing skills as evidence, Rachlin filed a motion to delay the trial, claiming Inside Track would have a “poisonous effect” on the jury pool. (Sam the Sham was on Teetor’s witness list, but was never called. Several of his fraudulent columns, however, were introduced into evidence, causing former editor Ronald Thornburg to eat beaucoup crow.) No dice, said the judge. The year before, the Freeps lost its motion for a gag order to prevent yours truly from covering the lawsuit. Also in February, there was a historic decision by the Supreme Court to overturn the Judicial Conduct Board’s ruling that Judge Alden Bryan had lied in open court to yours truly way back in December 1993. Da fix was in. Scaldin’ Alden got off, but before the year ran out he announced his retirement from the bench. Au revoir.

MARCH — Finally, Paul Teetor got his day in court. It was a battle of legal titans — The Prince of Darkness vs. Ritchie Berger, aka The Terminator. Rachlin was unable to destroy Teetor in his persis tent cross-examination, while Berger took apart the former editors of the Free Press like a meat slicer cutting bologna. The finale was Berger’s blis ter-

Berger: Not once, not once, other than today, have you acknowledged that you did not tell the truth when you spoke to Ms. Diebolt, Mr. Thornburg and Mr. Carey afier returning to the Free Press from Ch. 17. Isn’t that the truth! Metzger: Yes. Berger: That’s all I have, your honor. After the plaintiff rested and The Wall Street Journal weighed in, Gannett Inc. raised the set tlement offer to Teetor’s com fort level, and the case never went to the jury. Teetor was vindicated. The terms of the settlement were never made public. Guesses ranged from $100,000 up to $250,000.

Also in April Republican gubernatorial candidate Barbara Snelling suffered a life-threaten ing stroke. Three days after suffering a cerebral hemorrhage, Snelling has already disproved the bleak early prognosis given by the folks in the white jackets. To those who know her, that doesn’t come as a sur prise. Barbara Snelling eventually recovered, but was forced to abandon her run for governor. Just as well. Nobody was going to knock off Ho-Ho this year. As it turned out, Babs ran for stale senate and topped the Chittenden County ticket. She continues to be in the thick of it under the golden dome.

ell, I tried. God knows I tried. I swore I’d never do a col umn on the subject of gay marriage, and I thought I meant it. “Not for a million dollars,” I said. “Not for all the tea in China.” I’d had a nasty brush with the thought polic back in June, when I was asked by this newspaper if I was in favor of gay marriage and I answered, “W hy do we want access to an institution that isn’t working for anybody?” My reply, while innocuous enough, was sufficient to get me branded in the outer reaches of gay society as “a Republican” and a dire reactionary who “represents only the interests of the gay male elite.” W hat that’s supposed to mean I can’t imagine, but after my experiences with Matt Stickney and his dress, I’m not too keen to find out. As Vermont’s only publicly diagnosed “transphobic” case, I worry about my reputation. So when my friends asked me to do a column about gay marriage I had to think about it long and hard. I had to wrestle with my conscience. Was it worth the awful price I knew I’d have to pay? Should I shield myself from the wrath of special interests or risk another girdle-burning on the lawn? W hat was more important to me, my own peace of mind or the mounting clamor of my black-hearted fans, who are just as tired as I am of the spectacle of self-respecting gays and lesbians charging like lemmings from the bridal boutique to the altar and straight over the cliff into the monotonous world of mortgages, potluck and

I’ve got no quarrel with gay couples who feel the need for a public com mitment ceremony to declare their intentions and celebrate their love. If religion is an obstacle, it’s a matter for the couples and their churches to work out. It’s got nothing to do with the rest o f us, thank God. Nor do I have any trouble understanding the rising demand for legislation that grants the same legal rights to gay couples as it does to the straight kind. Marriage is one of the advantages of citizenship, after all. But it’s not a “right” like other rights, and '

KICK IN THE YEAR Continued from page 5 caught red-handed? The town manager, that’s who. Soon after, the Coke machine was removed. But hold on, there s a happy ending. Two weeks ago a new soda machine arrived at the town offices — only this ones on the first floor, not in the basement. Drink up! May was also the month yours truly, in a drug-induced daze of good will, looked into the crystal ball and predicted Howard Dean — that’s right, Ho-Ho — is so wise and tal ented he’ll end up on the ticket with A1 Gore in 2000. Vice President Howard Dean. Hey, Al, it wouldn’t kill you to clean the pool, would it? JUNE — The popular inves tigative series featuring WGOP, excuse me, WCAX-TV, kicked off in June. This week it’s come to our attention that W GOP-TV’s owner, Stuart “Red””M artin has been a little too generous in his support o f Ol’ Bernardo’s challenger, Susan Sweetser. According to Susie Creamcheese’s campaign director, Darcie Johnston, the Sweetser campaign had to return $500 to Red Martin because : •>;. ....... he exceeded the $^000 limit on individual con tributions. « , Apparently Red just lost track

to go jump in the lake. Jack Longshot didn’t. As time went on he became more than a Democratic mascot, and it didn’t hurt OP Bernardo a bit. JULY — The Susan Sweetser for Congress campaign started to unravel in July. First off, her high-powered political consult ing firm, Dressner-Wickers (who got Boris Yeltsin re-elect ed), bounced a $6000 check at WGOP, sorry, WCAX-TV. Susie Creamcheese blew her stack when the story got out and accused the Associated Press of being biased. Tsk, tsk. Then Sweetser told reporters at the campaigns first public forum that the welfare bill Newt and the boys had just ramrodded through the House did not cut food stamps. Susie Creamcheese arro gantly insisted the Republicans — out of the goodness of their hearts — had increased food stamp benefits by $20 billion. “I hope you all will do your research and fin d out was it a cut or was it not a cut, ”said Sweetser. Inside Track took up the challenge and con firmed the bill would cut food stamps by $23 4 billion. Look, no matter where you stand — whether you’re a bleeding-heart liberal with 10 shares ofBen & Jerry’s or a Make Da’

Europe, Westover, 22, recalls how the sport was an opportu nity to continue his skiing career after earning high school All-American honors but little interest from his college ski team of choice. “I wanted to go to UVM,” Westover says, “but you always hear how hard it is to walk onto the ski team.” Instead, he enlisted in the National Guard and used the educational bene fits toward UVM cuicion while training for the biathlon out in Jericho. Last year, after just five years in the sport, he upset the establishment and earned one of four places on the U.S. Team by winning the 20K individual competition at the National Championships. Back at the USBA, Steve Sands is looking to build a base of skiers in the Green Mountains that might one day challenge the biathletes from Norway and Belarus. “We look at being in Vermont as a very positive thing,” he says. “We think it’s an excellent place for potential to be developed and be ready in 2002.” □

\ARIES (Mar. 21 -Apr j recent episode o f the T V

19): In a science| fiction show “Babylon 5 ,” an earthling | and an alien were talking about why | their m utual friend had a giant poster \ o f a goofy-grinned Daffy D uck over | his bed. T he alien innocently asked, | “Is that one o f the deities he prays to?” i T he earthling replied, “Yeah — it’s the \ Egyptian god o f frustration.” I 1couldn’t help but think o f you at that | poignant yet wacky m om ent, Aries. I W hy? Because I believe that if you’ll j only visualize Daffy D uck every tim e | you m eet frustration in 1997, you’ll j have the attitude necessary to turn that j frustration into a rich source of m otivation.

TAURUS

(Apr. 20-M ay 20): As I | contem plate your fate in the year I ahead, I keep thinking o f an earthy — I OK , crude— old saying I once heard i from a guy w ho’d com peted in the j Iditarod, the dog-sled race in Alaska. | “Unless you’re the lead dog,” he said, | “the view never changes.” I w ouldn’t have dream ed o f m entioning this, Taurus, except for the fact that 1997 will be prim e tim e for you to push your way to the front o f the pack, where the views will be stunningly panoram ic and in constant flux.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): I’d like to suggest a fresh tradition to start the year: m aking N ew Year’s antiresolutions. It’ll be a fu n exercise in acknowledging the part o f you th a t’s bad and lazy. Here are a few questions to guide you. (1) W h at sins an d vices do you vow to do even m ore an d even bigger in 1997? (2) W h at nagging irritations will you ignore and avoid w ith even greater ingenuity? (3) W hat >ng-term goal o r life-long dream do ju vow to delay setting in m otion for as long as possible? (P.S. 1 believe that

ARTIST

C ontinued from page 25 woman who took part in the 1991 student occupation of the Waterman administration building at UVM. This is one of four paint ings inspired by that takeover, in which Jamieson himself participated. Two of the oth ers are gentle, non-didactic works in which knotted pieces of cloth tie together sections of canvas, thereby connoting a theme of the protest: unity amidst diversi ty. In the fourth painting, hung as a centerpiece in the Fleming’s Marble Court, Jamieson strains to provoke and offend by entitling this group portrait “Fuck You, Whitey.” As that juvenile outburst suggests, Jamieson was still moving toward maturity as an artist at the time of his death. Some of his works too readily reveal the influence of Picasso and contemporary painters such as Jean-Michel Basquiat, who was, like Jamieson, an African-American who died of AIDS in his 20s. Viewed as a whole, how ever, the paintings demon strate that Jamieson was shap ing a style distinctively his own. Its power holds out a promise of greatness to come — which makes this show all the more disturbing and affecting. □

Capricorn? Seems there’s a lot o f adventurous togetherness in the works.

com ing up w ith these anti-resolutions will help loosen you up as you devise your resolutions. And that will in turn make it m ore likely you’ll actually stick to those goody-goody promises.)

CANCER (June 21-July 22): A ccording to all the om ens, 1996 was supposed to be the year you fell in love w ith love all over again; the year you stopped sabotaging your rom antic ideals; the year you m ade vast im provem ents in your relationship skills and evolved from being a pretty good lover to being a m aster o f intimacy. D o you fit any o f those descriptions, even a little? If so, I can confidently predict that 1997 will bring a second honeym oon or a first elopem ent or a sym biotic union that will make your entire rom antic history before this seem like puppy love. LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22): Have you found your soul twin? If not, I predict the legendary m eeting will unfold in February 1997. And if you and this eternal com panion have already m ade contact before then, 1 predict the two o f you will spend February and M arch discovering miracles o f intim acy and delight th at not only blow your m ind, b u t blow your heart, too. How to prepare? First o f all, notice that I didn’t say you’d m eet y o u r dream lover, b u t rather your soul twin. T hey could be the same thing, bur n o t necessarily. Second, clear your m ind o f all expectations about w hat this

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): I’m sad to report that one o f every four adults chronically has to fight off the gloomy suspicion that she (or he) has missed her calling. But I’m happy to report that if you’re am ong this number, there’s never been a better tim e than 1997 to unchoose the questionable career choices you’ve made. I’m not saying it would be easy. But it could be thrilling, risky, unim aginably dem anding, and maybe even successful. And if you happen to be one o f the 75 percent who feels pretty cheery about your current vocation, the year ahead will be prim e tim e to pum p it up to the next level. LIBRA (Sept. 23-O ct. 22): Normally, hum an fertility is highest when the room tem perature is 64 degrees F. You’ll be an exception to the rule for most o f the com ing year, since w hether it’s 30 below or 100 in the shade your own fertility will be almost continuously raging like a bull in springtim e. O f course that means if you’re a heterosexual and you’d prefer to make great art or business instead o f a baby, you’d better take extra precautions w ith birth control. It also means you sure as hell better find some constructive, first-class outlets for all your creativity, lest you find yourself belting out m oldy oldies at the local karaoke bar every Friday night.

AQUARIUS

Alice, whose trip to W onderland began with a descent down a rabbit hole, your best adventures will begin by plunging down and in. A nd like Jacques Cousteau, you’ll discover undream ed-of treasures if you can just becom e acclimated to the exotic conditions that prevail in the depths.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. -Dec. 21): W elcome to the future, Sagittarius! Here are a few actions you could take to guarantee delivery o f all the blessings jovial Jupiter w ould love to unload on you in 1997. 1) Put together an aggressive and precise three-year plan to fill the holes in your education. 2) Dare to make three wellresearched gambles that will require you to improve your com m unication skills by a factor o f three. 3) Take yourself three times less seriously than you do now. 4) Dress for excess at least three times a m onth, and dress for success the rest o f the time. 5) Regard the triangle as your lucky symbol. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): W ho said all Capricorns are straightarrow, by-the-book workaholics? You folks have been deluging the Real Astrology offices w ith lists o f the fantasies you w ant to com e true in 1997, and so far they wildly belie your reputation.

Can we spot a trend here,

Wedding Planning

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Rabbi B urton Visotzky has com m ented that the Bible's Book of Genesis is “an ugly little soap opera about a dysfunctional fam ily... a story o f rape, incest, m urder, deception, brute force, sex and blood lust.” I’m happy to report that your own personal story o f genesis, which is due to unfold in 1997, will be a far more harm onious tale, though m elodram atic in its own kinky way. O n e possible way to introduce it: “In the beginning was the W o rd ... and the W ord was wheeeeeed ”

PISCES (Feb. 19-Mar. 20): T he absurdly optim istic fact o f the matter, Pisces, is that 1997 is potentially the best year for love and marriage since 1993 — especially if you vow to forget everything you thought you knew about love and marriage. To the degree that you conquer your past, and reduce the power o f the old ways to hypnotize you, you will be free to respond to every rom antic opportunity w ith your heart blazing and your sense o f tim ing impeccable. □

FILM

If you love movies, this is one year you probably w ont be sorry to see rung out. Greatness was as rare as a PhD at a Beavis and Butt-Head screening. Fakery, formula, bungling and general blithering bogusness, on the other hand, were not in short supply While my list of the years .10 worst fell into place as effortlessly as cow plop on a steamy summer pasture, coming up with 10 that deserve to be called “the best” o f anything was grueling work. So, here you go, for what it’s worth. And best wishes for a far more boffo new year...

FACE LIFTS Once again we've selected scenes from four well-known movies and, through the magic of Film Quiz technology, zapped the famous faces of their stars right out of the picture. Your job, as always, is to identify the four films anyway, minus their stars and with only a single clue-ridden scene apiece to go on.

1. FARGO — Frances McDormand gave the per formance of the year — a magical mixture of sweetness and strength. Dark filmmak ers don’t get any brighter than Joel and Ethan Coen. 2. MARY REILLY — Eschewing run-of-the-mill chilis, Stephen Frears gave us a dreamlike, ethereal exercise in gothic minimalism. 3. LONE STAR «•— From John Sayles, one o f his best ever and a reminder o f what movies were like before they were made by computers. THE BEST: Frances McDormandgi '■ormance o, 4. JERRY MAGUIRE — year in the Coen brothers’Fargo. Brains, humor, style and emotional power beyond almost anything out there. You between romantic comedies. 5. COURAGE UNDER FIRE — From its edge-of-the-seat action to struggles o f a movingly personal nature, the latest from Edward Zwick was one o f the most smartly written, directed and acted pictures of the year, Lou Diamond Phillips did his best work since Let Bamba. 6. JAMES & T H E GIANT PEACH — While it didn't make a lot of money, Henry Selick’s gorgeous film did make history as the first to combine live action, stop-action techniques and computer anima tion, 7. MULTIPLICITY — Audiences experienced Michael Keaton overload, apparently, hut I found Harold Ramis’ clone comedy gcne-splitungly funny. 8. T IN CU P — Costner managed to avoid the water hazard this year. 9. EXECUTIVE D ECISIO N — A surprisingly effective exercise in old-fashioned race-against-the-clockstyie suspense and a welcome departure from business as usual for producer loei Silver. 10. SLEEPERS That Barry Levinson’s complex courtroom drama was as riveting as mainstream moviemaking got this year is beyond a reasonable doubt.

(in descending order) 1. MARS ATTACKS! — The biggest problem with Tim Burtons $80 million scifi spoof It s less entertaining than the pictures he parodies. 2. TWISTTiR — A cartoon plot, characters that are near ly one-dimensional. The effects may have blown straight out of the studio and into the record books, and blown the competition away. But more than anything, this just blew. " ' v' T 3. STRIPTEASE— In a summer dominated by

IW WORST:

aliens, the strangest lifeBrando hit an all-time low in the lunkheaded Island of Dr. Moreau. form on the screen had to be Demi Moore’s feminist/nudie dancer. 4. BROKEN ARROW7WHITE MAN’S BURDEN (a tie) — Just a thought: John Travolta wouldn’t have to make so many comebacks if he just didn’t make so many movies as dull and lunkheaded as these. 5. CHAIN REACTION The most laugh-packed picture o f ’96. Too bad it was supposed to be a dead-serious chase thriller. I’ve seen better-written edge-of-your-seat stuff on “Mister Rogers.” 6. ESCAPE FROM L A — Fifteen years after the cult success of Escape From New York, John Carpenter and Kurt Russell reteamed for a sequel, and there was no escaping it. The film wasn’t worth the wait. 7. MISSION IMPOSSIBLE — Surprisingly slow in places and silly in others. Most of the story is oldhat, with a lot of lap-top computers thrown in to make it seem new age. 8 , FAITHFUL — Cher returned to the screen as a woman whose 20th wedding anniversary is interrupt ed by hit-man Chazz Paiminteri, who attempts to chat her to death. 9. TH E FAN — Watching De Niro go through the loco-motions in this derivative, nasty-hearted story about yet another loser obsessed with celebrity was one of the year’s real low points. What could possibly be sadder than an actor of this caliber ripping himself off this way? 10. THE ISLAND OF DR. MOREAU — This could. In 1996, no movie was more subliterate, defectively directed or, in general, more maiodrous than this one. Marlon Brando, who will evidently do any thing tor money at this point, spoped to playing arpnumbly, buffoonish s l S S s t who wears funny hats, lots of white make-up and billowy ensembles that looked like they were designed by the Vermont Tent Company. It was the worn movie of the summer, the worst science-fiction picture in a science-fictionfilled year, and the worst film in Brandos entire career. In 1996, it truly did not get any worse than this.
