Work to live Seriously, the minimum wage is not for the head of a household (“Minimum wage earners have to work 77 hours a week to afford an apartment in Florida,” Bloggytown, May 29). If you are above the age of 25, and the only work you can do gets you the minimum wage, you should have studied harder in high school or learned a trade. According to PEW and the Bureau of Labor research, 2.6 percent of wage earners make the minimum wage or less. About half are over the age of 24. If you take into account the number of people who earn tips, about 44 percent, the numbers continue to get smaller. Joe Mooney, via orlandoweekly.com

“The Osmonds were pretty popular back then, especially among Mormons, but I think among a lot of Americans. But we had a group called the Sunshine Cousins.

union supporter back in the day. “I was excited to be part of the cause and join forces with striking workers,” Rubio wrote with his other hand while breathing out of the other side of his mouth in his first memoir. “I became a committed union activist.” Then, when his dad crossed the strike lines, the Palm Beach Post reports, Rubio verbally assailed him with this nugget: “I accused him of selling out and called him a scab. … It hurt him, and I am ashamed of it.” Which just adds to the mystery of the Marco Rubio that nobody can seem to pin down. Last week, after the New York Times posited that Rubio could be Hillary Clinton and the Democrats’ “nightmare,” Daily Beast columnist Michael Tomasky coughed up his coffee: “Rubio has some strengths the others don’t,” Tomasky wrote. “But if all this adds up to a nightmare, I’d think Clinton is sleeping pretty well at night.”
Bring the balls On May 29, after postponing a fantastic interview with us for unexplained reasons, Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer (who did meet
us the next day) and the Orlando City Soccer Club announced that the soccer club is no longer going to wait for the state to figure out whether it’ll provide any funding for the construction of a new soccer-specific stadium in Orlando. Instead, the city has agreed to sell the site where it planned to construct the stadium to Orlando City Soccer. Although the sale price wasn’t announced, the mayor said the club would pay “fair market value” for the property (ha, ha, ha). The soccer club will privately fund the construction of the stadium, which will be larger than originally planned – the new stadium will seat 25,000 to 28,000, a leap from the 19,000 the stadium was originally supposed to hold. And there is some stormwater nonsense to work out, which the soccer club also says it’ll pay for. Even with the skepticism that comes along with an out-of-nowhere deal, at least Phil Rawlins and Flavio Augusto da Silva have the nerve to fund their own enterprise, rather than letting it sit on the city’s bond-rolls. Somebody should send a note to Orlando Magic owner Rich DeVos, maybe, one with an invoice in it for the $500 million in public dollars used to build the Amway Center. Well done, Lions.

How does Valencia State College’s former practice of using student volunteers to practice transvaginal ultrasounds stack up to other schools in the state? last week, Valencia State College in Orlando announced that it will permanently eliminate a practice that, while commonly used in medical-training fields, makes most people cringe when they hear about it: asking students to volunteer for medical diagnostic testing in the classroom so everyone gets some real-life experience with various procedures. It’s
common for students in medical programs to practice such things as blood draws and abdominal exams on fellow students, even if it seems somewhat invasive to people outside the field. But when it came to light last month that two female students attending Valencia sued the school because they claim they were browbeat into volunteering for one particularly invasive procedure – transvaginal ultrasound, an internal ultrasound that helps medical professionals get a closer look at female reproductive organs – the school quickly came under fire. The students say they were told that if they didn’t agree to have the ultrasounds, they would have to leave the program or be “blacklisted” from working at local hos-
pitals. Valencia College first responded to the suit by pointing out that peer physical examinations – known as PPEs – are a commonly accepted practice in medicaltraining programs across the nation. And indeed, some of the medical professionals we talked to say they practiced various techniques on fellow students when they were in school. Some said their experience was limited to non-invasive examinations; others say they even practiced such things as gynecological pelvic exams on fellow students. But shortly after Valencia defended itself in the media, it did an about-face. On May 26, college president Sandy Shugart said the school would “permanently discontinue the use of student volunteers for transvaginal ultrasound scanning.” The school says it conducted a “comprehensive external investigation and a thorough internal review” and decided to instead rely on teaching methods that “employ sophisticated simulators,” in place of student volunteers – something the lawsuit against Valencia claims has been an option for the school, which has simulators in the classroom already. We called several other colleges that offer diagnostic medical sonography programs in the state to see what they were doing to get students the practice they needed. Would a ban on student volunteers put Valencia College at a disadvantage if other schools in the state were indeed using them? By press time, we weren’t able to confirm the policies on using student volunteers at either Polk State College or Pensacola State College, both of which offer diagnostic sonography programs, but we did get responses from both Miami Dade College and Hillsborough Community College. According to Hessy Fernandez, director of media relations for Miami Dade College, the school “does not allow students to practice or examine one another. In addition to high-tech simulators, Miami Dade College at times uses paid subjects for some exams.” At Hillsborough, there is limited use of student volunteers in a very controlled setting. According to Ashley Carl, executive director of marketing and public relations for the school, students can volunteer “to get extra practice” when they complete the program. Only, they aren’t practicing on other students – they’re practicing on themselves. “What will happen is the student volunteer who is on the table will be fully covered up and will insert the probe into themselves,” she says. One instructor and one other student must be on hand to supervise, but she says the exam happens in a “very private” setting rather than in a class in front of other students. “The other student will help do the guiding for the student who has the probe within them, orlandoweekly.com
and they will help remove the probe.” She says that typically, only about four to six students per year request the session, which she says can be a valuable learning experience for the students. But it’s not part of the curriculum, she says, and nobody is asked to undergo it. Although Shugart’s statement implies that Valencia is through with student volunteering for good, it does also state that the school plans to “review and evaluate all of our educational programs on a frequent basis.” Perhaps if it evaluates its sonography program practices again, it can take a page from Hillsborough’s playbook. – Erin Sullivan
SWAT descends on 55 West to serve search warrant, gets shot at by suspect on Friday, May 29, an armed man attempted to shoot police officers serving a search warrant in downtown Orlando. When SWAT officers went to apartment 2005 at 55 W. Church St. – aka the 55 West building – they deployed a “diversionary device” inside the apartment, then rushed inside. According to a police report, officers heard a “distinctive bang,” which they recognized as a gun being fired. More officers entered the apartment and one of them spotted the suspect, Johan Otilio Lopez, hiding behind a dresser. Lopez dove to the floor, and officers quickly detained him. After he was removed from the premises, they found spent shell casings and found a pistol that had an unused round stuck in the firing chamber, preventing it from continuing to fire. “This leads me to believe that had Lopez’s gun not jammed, he would have continue to shoot at SWAT officers,” Officer Phillip McMican wrote in his report of the incident. Officers say they continued to search the apartment and found “a large bag of a green leafy substance,” which was obviously marijuana. More than a pound of pot was found in the apartment, as well as a packaging machine, unused vacuumsealable bags and a “large amount” of U.S. currency. Lopez, who police say has 46 prior felony arrests, one felony conviction, 31 misdemeanor arrests and eight misdemeanor convictions, can now add the charges of attempted first-degree murder of a law enforcement officer, possession of ammunition by a convicted felon, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, possession of cannabis with intent to sell, and possession of cannabis in excess of 20 grams to his lengthy rap sheet. – ES esullivan@orlandoweekly.com ●

Ron Campbell, celebrated animator of the Beatles’ Yellow Submarine, raises his periscope in Orlando By Travis aTr i a
F
ifty years ago, Ron Campbell got an offer he couldn’t refuse. The first thing he did was refuse it. Campbell was kicking around his native Australia working as an animator on television commercials and cartoons when a call came in from New York asking him to direct a TV show about beetles. Campbell thought a moment and said, “I don’t think bugs will make very good characters.” Of course, he had misheard. The show wasn’t about beetles. It was about Beatles. Looking back on that fateful call, Campbell – who will make live drawings at the 1059 Sunny FM Rock Art Show & Sale Friday through Sunday, as well as display work for sale – isn’t sure how he hadn’t heard of the Beatles. After all, by 1965 they were the most famous band on the planet. They had just released the Help film and soundtrack and would soon drop Rubber Soul on a still-reeling world. “I wasn’t familiar with their music, but I became a Beatles fan by directing the show,” Campbell says. “Directing the Beatles TV cartoon show was not so much exciting as

ink outlines and then filling them in with watercolors. “I do drawings for little children, really,” he says. “If I do a drawing for an adult, I find quickly a line of 30 people. Nostalgia is a powerful emotion, I guess.” After half a century animating some of the most iconic characters in television history, Campbell says he still enjoys drawing them, although he can’t pick a favorite. “You can’t do it,” he says. “How the hell do
you choose between the Beatles, Smurfette and Scooby-Doo?” Luckily, his fans do the picking for him, whether from one of the famous ’60s cartoons or from his more recent work on shows like Rugrats and Darkwing Duck. “I can walk into a room filled with people of all ages, and they all know my work,” he says. “Fifty years is a long time, mate.” arts@orlandoweekly.com

terrifying. It was very challenging. I was a very young man, 24 years old. I had dumped on me a great deal of responsibility to hire a lot of people, to oversee the workflow, to see that six months hence the film would be delivered to New York, and one week after that, another film delivered. It was kind of like flying an airplane. It was very exciting, but you might be scared if you stopped and thought about it. There was too much to do. Not thinking for a moment that 50 years later I would be talking to a newspaper man from Orlando.” The Beatles cartoon changed Campbell’s life. It reigned atop the ratings for its entire four-year run, after which Campbell got the nod from Bill Hanna of HannaBarbera fame. Soon he was animating The Smurfs, Scooby-Doo, The Jetsons and The Flintstones, among others, and in 1968, he was welcomed back into the Beatles fold to animate the Yellow Submarine feature film. “Yellow Submarine was a lot more fun,” Campbell says. “They sent a voice track and it was my job to send them back pencil drawings of the full animation of the scenes, which included many scenes of the Blue Meanies, the Nowhere Man, a lot of the character animation.” Now retired, Campbell spends his time traveling to events like the Sunny FM show, where he meets fans and draws their favorite characters, starting with pencil and

There’s nothing else quite like the Republic, an innovative new interactive entertainment It all began with the blindfold. A ribbon of cloth was tied across my face, and I was led stumbling into the blackness with only the shifting textures beneath my feet – from tile to cement to dirt and sticks – signifying my sightless progress. Finally, I was forced to sit on a low stool and a gruff voice grunted warnings in my ears until the blind was removed, revealing the hideously disfigured visage of my monstrous host. As he ranted about pain and control, I ransacked the gloomy room, rummaging through ornate boxes in search of an instrument to tranquilize him with. No, this isn’t a preview of Disney’s new Fifty Shades of Grey ride; nor is it a training camp for Halloween Horror Nights scare-actors. Welcome to The Republic (therepublicgame.com), an innovative new interactive entertainment that opened in downtown Orlando’s Ivanhoe Village neighborhood late last month. The Republic casts up to 30 players per session as cogs in a complex sci-fi society inspired by Plato’s politics, Greek mythology and Fritz Lang’s Metropolis. Once assigned their roles, guests get 90 minutes to explore 18,000 square feet of elaborately themed sets and interact with
THe rePUBlIC
a dozen-odd live actors. Depending on the questions players ask and decisions they make, the Republic might witness a bloodless revolution – or the whole thing might get blown to hell. After experiencing the attraction twice (once during their Fringe Festival “beta test” and again at their media grand opening), I can confidently say that there’s nothing else quite like the Republic in Orlando’s tourism market, nor maybe any other. I’ve enjoyed most of the local “escape rooms” that have proliferated lately, but those are more like old-school point-andclick puzzle games, whereas the Republic is closer to a live-action open-world RPG. Creator Sarah Elger (who is a designer for a local theme park by day) credits World of Warcraft as an important influence, and told me that her desire to “create a real-life video game experience” has taught her that “empowering an audience member is terrifying” from the gamemaker’s perspective. Likewise, comparisons can be drawn to immersive plays like Tamara or Sleep No More, but those are passive experiences in which the audience members are observers, while the Republic relies on participants to make decisions that drive the action forward. There are no hit points or dice rolls in this game; your weapons are your wits and information is the only currency. You can choose to follow the character you are initially paired with and play your assigned
role, but I had more fun deviating from the obvious path, making my own decisions about who to trust or deceive. This type of interactive theater relies on talented improvisers to make it work, and for the most part the Republic’s cast acquits itself honorably. I recognized a number of familiar faces from area stages – including Corey Volence, Clare Ghezzi, Spencer Hojdila, Michael Sloan and John Reid Adams – and all did an excellent job of “yes, and”-ing my suggestions. A couple of the characterizations (such as the Engineer who was channeling Randy “Macho Man” Savage for some unknown reason) crossed into distracting camp, but most maintained the appropriate balance between sinister and surreal. Even when I deliberately disobeyed instructions or otherwise tried to push the game’s boundaries, they all stayed in character and adjusted agilely. I was especially impressed by Kathryn Fabbroni’s performance as the shellshocked CEO after I rescued her from a cave full of jellybeans (you had to be there). As with any enterprise this ambitious, there’s bound to be room for improvement, and while I noted welcome tweaks between my two visits, it still has a way to go. Most crucially, full enjoyment of the attraction requires understanding the complex caste system writer Nikhil Menezes has crafted, which results in overly expository opening scenes; imagine if the dungeon master had to explain what elves and dragons were before every game of D&D. I’d suggest sharing the backstory online for pre-game prep and screening a “propaganda film” explaining the essentials during the wait for everyone to check in (a process that currently takes way too long). Fair warning: The Republic isn’t for the faint-hearted; there’s foul language from the first scene, and at one point I watched someone run screaming from a rampaging actor. During the game itself, some tasks I completed had no consequences, and both times we were summoned to the finale just as I felt I was starting to accomplish my objectives. Finally, neither of the scripted endings I saw (I’ve heard there are four possible conclusions) was particularly satisfying; the “murder cabinet” used to kill characters is especially awkward and anticlimactic. Even with these issues, I became really involved in my Republic experiences, and wished they had been 20 minutes longer. The question is what will become of this grand experiment once its limited nine-week run ends in late July, as construction for the Yard at Ivanhoe consumes the Republic’s Alden Road warehouse. Hopefully Elgin and company can find a new permanent home for it, because I’d love to see their concept refined to a quality that can compete with other area attractions. skubersky@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

It’s an ambitious move, making a list of 20 things in Orlando that we think everyone needs to eat at least once. So first, let’s talk about what this list isn’t. It’s not a restaurant guide – we’re focusing in on the plate, not looking at the whole experience. It’s not a list of the “best” dishes in Orlando – we’ll give you our take on those (and you’ll give us yours!) in Orlando Weekly’s upcoming Best of Orlando issue, out July 29. And it’s not a comprehensive inventory, either – we couldn’t possibly confine all the great tastes Orlando has to offer to just 20 plates. Think of this as a punch card, a bucket list, a map of flavors that will take you around the city and around the world. Gotta catch ’em all!

It’s not a traditional poutine, nor a traditional breakfast, but it’s a humdinger of a plate: seasoned crinkle-cut fries smothered with sausage gravy and spicy cheese sauce, then topped with a fried egg and a delicate sprinkle of parsley. (Don’t spare the hot sauce.)

T
he encouraging murmurs we heard about Royal Indian Cuisine had us eager to make the drive out to Casselberry, and it’s not very often one gets to say that. The standalone building on the corner of State Road 436 and Howell Branch Road has housed other restaurants – Las Margaritas; Brick & Fire – but the aromas of sizzling fajitas and blistered pizzas have since given way to the redolent scents of tandoori meats and curries. But as anyone who frequents Indian restaurants will tell you, heady scents alone do not a good Indian restaurant make. Even the worst Desi resto can entice with fragrant spices a-roasting, but the proof is in the pakora, or, as was the case on this particular visit, in the bhaji – onion bhaji ($4.95), that is. The batter fashioned from chickpea flour, onions, cilantro and carom seed couldn’t have been fried more perfectly, and the flavors – arousing, exotic – gave us hope for what was to come. So it was a little surprising to bite into the
tough, almost chewy crust of a lamb samosa ($5.95). I’ve bitten into many a samosa crust in my time, but this was confoundingly subpar and unlike any I had bitten into before. Further, the ground lamb was completely overdone, rendering this starter a complete and utter failure. So it was good thing we ordered the chilli chicken ($9.95). The lingering effects of the samosa were put on the proverbial funeral pyre and set ablaze by this infernal Indo-Chinese sauté. Note: Daubing rivulets of moisture from your neck with fistfuls of paper napkins is a necessary adjunct to this seriously spicy-ass dish. One of our servers repeatedly checked on us as we savored it, then grinned after every bite we took. The other server, equally as affable and attentive as the first, had us simultaneously amused and bewildered with his Chaplinesque mannerisms. Both were competent, helpful and all too willing to please, though neither could’ve done a damn thing about the dried-out lamb seekh kebabs ($15.95). Sizzling as they were, their texture left much to be desired, and the seasonings in the marinade were just off. Bhindi do pyaza ($11.95), okra slowcooked in spices, was a far better effort; the
thick sauce was quite lovely, in fact. The subtly sweet gravy of the chicken shahi korma ($13.95) was requisitely luxuriant; the cashew paste added an unparalleled richness to the curry, giving the korma its “shahi” (“royal”) distinction. Also pleasing was the Kerala fish curry ($14.95). A blend of tamarind, curry leaves and coconut provided the base in which generous chunks of (sigh) tilapia lolled. As far as breads are concerned, neither the naan ($2.50) nor the lacha paratha ($4) glistened with ghee, and both looked dry and lifeless in the bread basket. It just underscored my take: Royal Indian Cuisine is simply a straight-up curry house, nothing more. Even desserts like gulab jamun ($3.95) and pistachio kulfi ($4.95) were uninspired, the latter’s consistency resembling wet cardboard more than ice cream. So, as far as neighborhood Indian joints go, this one will do, I suppose. But in a year that brought the closure of American Gymkhana, arguably the finest Indian restaurant to ever grace this city, that’s no consolation.

Boulevardier, the Old Pal), but remixing my favorite drink seems like a mug’s game. Why mess with perfection? However, when I got a PR pitch for the new Bonne O carbonating system claiming that, unlike the SodaStream, users can carbonate liquids other than water, it caught my attention. Bartenders with access to pro carbon dioxide systems have been serving carbonated Negronis for a few years, but home bartenders were limited to adding soda to get that bubbly tingle – nice, but a much diluted version of the original. Simply adding liquor to the “flavor chamber” of the typical seltzer system doesn’t really give you a carbonated cocktail – it gives you a very lightly alcoholic, cocktail-flavored fizzy water. However, forcing anything but water through a seltzer-making system can lead to A) contamination inside the machine, or, more immediately, B) explosions. I want-

1 cup Campari 1 cup gin 1 cup sweet (red) vermouth 1 Bonne O carbonation system
The Bonne O won’t work unless everything is supercold, so mix the spirits together in a freezer-safe container (preferably one with a pouring spout, like a Pyrex measuring cup) and leave it in the freezer for at least an hour. Also put some water (about 2/3 of a cup) in the fridge with ice to chill. Once everything is chilled, pour the liquor into the carbonating bottle and top off with ice cubes (you should only need one or two, but the bottle must be full to work). Fill the flavor chamber with cold water, add the carbon dioxide tablet, and set to run for a full four-minute cycle. Eventually, it will stop beeping NOT COLD ENOUGH at you and start its bubbly work. When it’s done, VERY CAREFULLY vent all the gases – both with the bottle release and the top bottle vent – before serving in a chilled coupe or glass of your choice. Store any leftovers in an airtight flip-top bottle.

eviewers are people, too. (This may seem an inflammatory assertion in this world of uninformed online pushback to every expert opinion, but I assure you it’s true.) Despite a professional requirement to remain completely open to all kinds of experiences, dig deep enough and you might get a restaurant reviewer to admit she loathes bone marrow, or a travel writer to confess that she prefers cold-weather destinations to beach towns. And it’s the same with this column. When I’m kicking back with friends instead of mad-scientisting a Remix of a classic cocktail, I gravitate toward aperitifs, digestifs and amari rather than your basic whiskey or vodka mixed drink. Aperol, Lillet, vermouth, sherry, Cynar – all are major players, but my favorite is Campari, and my favorite Campari cocktail is the Negroni. I’ve remixed a few variations on the Negroni (the
ed no part of an appliance gummed up with Campari, but this Bonne O was a loaner, so I figured it wouldn’t be my problem for long. I also wanted no part of a kitchen ceiling covered with Campari, but I got around that by doing my experiments in the driveway (which turned out to be an excess of caution, but hey, better safe than sorry). Various straight carbonation (as opposed to water-only) gadgets have come out in recent years – the Perlini, the iSi Twist ’n’ Sparkle, the Mastrad Purefizz – and one by one, all have been discontinued. Based on the red liquid still seeping out of a closed area on the Bonne O after a rinse cycle, I won’t be surprised if this isn’t a long-lived machine, either, but with some experimentation, I was very happily able to use it to create an effervescent, (practically) all-liquor Negroni. I look forward to using the system to create and bottle a few more fizzy cocktails and quick-infused sangrias before I have to send it back. If you’d like to try it for yourself, the $150 machine is available for online order at WilliamsSonoma and Bed Bath & Beyond.

Shish.Co Mezze & Grill The bevy of Turkish delights fashioned behind the walk-up window of this glassblocked edifice in Maitland is nothing short of stellar. From traditional kebab sandwiches (doner, kofte) to intriguing vegetarian items like the zucchini pancake, the dishes gratify. A highlight is the chicken kebab flatbread bowl with fluffy bulgur, though the lamb chops (cooked well-done) are exquisitely tender. End with kurabiyesi cookies and a spot of Turkish tea. 118 Lake Ave., Maitland, 407-636-7601; $

Swine & Sons Handcrafted charcuterie may headline at this Winter Park takeout joint, but executive chef Rhys Gawlak’s unpretentious yet sophisticated Southern fare is the real star. His butcher sandwiches (love the pimento grilled cheese) and daily “Blue Pig Specials,” like Nashville hot chicken and coffee-grilled spare ribs, keep the small parking lot perpetually full. Desserts by noted pastry chef Alexia Gawlak guarantee endings are nothing but sweet. Don’t leave without perusing the retail provisions. 595 W. Fairbanks Ave., Winter Park, 407-636-7601; $$
Pharmacy Pharmacy brings the speakeasy trend to Dr. Phillips, placing an emphasis on creativity in the kitchen, as well as behind the bar. Start with one of their many “elixirs” – stiff, handcrafted potions – before diving into such shareable options as roasted bone marrow with oxtail and chili-strawberry preserves or fried green tomato nuggets served over creamy corn curry. Mains vary by season, but what we ate – Swiss chard with sausage and pasta sleeves, and sea bass with a tableside pour of lemony Parmigiano broth – was superb.

Capa Sexy rooftop resto at the Four Seasons shows off its style with Basque- and Spanish-inspired specialties and USDA Prime steaks. It’s hard to go wrong with any dish, but you’ll go right with hamachi crudo to start. Succulent roast duck with braised salsify, Florida peaches and pickled mustard seed is also a must. If beef is your craving, the bone-in filet is sublime, even if it sets you back $69. Desserts are all Instagramworthy. 10100 Dream Tree Blvd., Lake Buena Vista, 407-313-7777; $$$$
Francesco’s Ristorante & Pizzeria Sicilian specialties star at this Maitland ristorante, with wood-fired brick-oven pizzas stealing the show. Pastas, like the beautifully plated penne Palermitana, are worth seeking out, but be wary of mealy veal Siciliano and flavorless calamari steak.

Pho Curry Ford Modest joint on Curry Ford Road serves dependable pho and other Vietnamese staples. While we weren’t blown away by the bún vermicelli bowl with bland grilled pork and shrimp, the hearty beef stew banh mi served with doughy French bread and an aromatic pho tai were both stellar.

Boca Tampa-based boîte is the latest to make a go of this jinx spot. Wonderfully crisp fried green tomatoes with pimento, tomato jam and house bacon are an impressive starter, as is the farmhouse salad with greens grown right on the walls in the resto’s “vertical garden.” Pan-seared wahoo over celery puree is a hit.

Opening this week Entourage Once upon a time, an 11-year span between the launch of a TV show and the premiere of its spinoff film wasn’t a very big deal at all. But these days … well, let’s just say that the real Aquaman almost made it to the movies first. Coming in just under the wire, here are the small-screen douchebags who foolishly cast their lot behind He Who Talks to Halibut, reunited for yet more Left Coast asshole-buddy-ism. Hey, at least Rahm squeaked to re-election in Chicago, because that “Ari Gold” business has a lot less cachet when your real-life bro is filling the 2 p.m. time slot on MSNBC. (R) Insidious: Chapter 3 A few years ago, I came up with what I think is a novel way to forestall our society’s Dermot Mulroney/Dylan McDermott confusion: I just refer to each of them as Dylan McDurwood. Yes, there’s nothing like a hint of Darren Stevens to remind you to accept the things you cannot distinguish. Anyway, one of ’em stars in this prequel to the first two Insidious pictures, which shows psychic Lin Shaye fighting for the soul of a teenage girl. Franchise co-creator Leigh Whannell, who also helped inflict the Saw series on the world, gets to direct a feature for the very first time. Hey, Leigh: What took you so long? There are best boys who schmooze their way to the top faster than that. (PG-13) Spy I hereby nominate Paul Feig for the Joan Harris-Holloway Award in recognition of his valiant attempts to do something for women in an industry that could barely give two fucks. No sooner had he announced his all-female Ghostbusters than Universal rendered the whole affair irrelevant by slating a male version for the very next summer. Don’t worry, date rapists of Twitter: The “real thing” is gonna be along right quick to blot out your memories of those meddling cunnies. In the interim, you’ll have to find a way to deal with Spy, yet another Feig/Melissa McCarthy collaboration, which casts the latter as a CIA agent in the thick of an international crisis. And get this: She’s fat! As Mark Rothko once thundered, BY WHAT RIGHT DOES SHE SPEAK? (R)
I had the worst seventh grade biology teacher in the history of education. Eight out of 10 classes, she’d hobble out with breakfast stains all over her shirt, mumble something science-y, and then wheel out a TV on a squeaky set of rollers to our class’ collective sighs. The rest of the hour would be spent watching Bill Nye the Science Guy. OK, in retrospect, maybe she was the best. But also the worst. I don’t know. The point is, like a meteor hurling itself into a planet and killing everything in sight, Bill Nye and his wacky antics have descended upon Netflix – and it’s the best Adult Swim show that never aired on Adult Swim. What was once a creative educational program for children is now one of the most hilariously watchable, awkward, cringeworthy experiences in streaming media. It’s glorious. For those of you not yet converted to Nye-hilism, let me break it down for you: Every episode embodies a new scientific topic to cover (the sun, gravity, etc.), then beats it to death for half an hour using hilarious little skits, fast-twitch editing and of course, Nye’s trademark “I’m amazed by everything” personality. Seriously, the guy could convince me that toilet paper would cure cancer. He could sell ice to a polar bear, water to a fish … you get the idea. And just like all educational programming from the ’90s, it looks like it was filmed with your dad’s shitty camera that he only whips out for family vacations. The entire series is a hot mess full of scattershot ideas, and not all of the jokes land, but there’s no denying that Bill Nye the Science Guy could fit beautifully next to an episode of Tim and Eric or Aqua Teen Hunger Force. Only instead of your classmates, you’d most likely be in a room full of your buddies catching up on your botany research. For those craving nostalgia, you’ll fall in love with basic-bitch science all over again. For the rest of you, make a drinking game out of it – something involving Bill’s eyebrows, preferably. You’ll be toasted within a half hour, and you may just learn a thing or two: The largest planet is what? JUPITER. I’m amazing. Whatever; I still don’t know science, but I’m thoroughly entertained. BILL! BILL! BILL! BILL!

good and bad vibrations Biopic explores the highs and lows of Brian wilson By cameron mei er
Love & Mercy
HHHHH
“w
ouldn’t it be nice to live together in the kind of world where we belong?” the Beach Boys sang in 1966 on their iconic Pet Sounds album. But what the LP’s listeners didn’t realize was that beneath those upbeat lyrics lurked a musician struggling to find a world where he himself belonged. Love & Mercy is the story of the artistic rise and psychological fall of Brian Wilson, the creative force behind the top-selling American band of the 1960s. It’s essentially two movies in one, with Paul Dano (There Will Be Blood, Little Miss Sunshine) perfectly capturing the frenetic musical perfectionism of the young Wilson and John Cusack tackling the tormented, overly medicated man from the 1980s. Dano is more believable as Wilson than Cusack, and the shooting style and color palette of the 1960s segments – not to mention Dano’s slight resemblance to Wilson – might make even hard-core Beach Boys fans do a double take. Throw in the other band members and some clever re-creations of the group’s performances and promotional films, and this easily ranks as the best cinematic examination of the band ever, one of the best films of the year and one of the best music movies of the last decade. Though accepting Cusack as Wilson physically might be a stretch, he embodies the musician aesthetically, helped along by an outstanding performance by the perpetually underrated Elizabeth Banks (Effie

Trinket in The Hunger Games movies) as Wilson’s girlfriend. Paul Giamatti is his usual stellar self as Wilson’s manipulative and overbearing psychologist, but it’s Banks who stands out. Seriously, when will she be treated as more than just an alternative to Rachel McAdams and given the respect she deserves? Well, I may have just answered my own question, as Banks could be in the discussion for a supporting-actress nod here, to perhaps accompany a nomination for Dano. Director Bill Pohlad (better known as a producer) and writers Oren Moverman and Michael Alan Lerner have fashioned a satisfyingly creative, if not particularly revolutionary, overlapping format. We get little bits of Dano’s musically innovative Wilson (with some wonderfully detailed studio moments) followed by stretches of Cusack’s Wilson on the psychological brink, and vice versa. And along the way, we learn to appreciate the greatness of Wilson and discover what separated him from the rest of his group. That separation is never sharper than when, in a deliciously metaphorical moment, Dano’s Wilson invites his bandmates to swim out to him in the pool. “We’re too shallow for the deep end,” one replies. The dual storytelling structure and strong performances are what most moviegoers will first notice about Love & Mercy, which shares its name with a song Wilson wrote for his 1988 eponymous album. But the film’s greatest cultural contribution might be its revelatory portrait of a man we mistakenly thought we already knew – a man who, for much of his life, lacked his own inner harmony despite his ability to create beautiful harmonies for the rest of us. feedback@orlandoweekly.com

t used to be if you wanted to sell a record, you slapped a pretty girl on the cover, called it the band’s biggest hits (or named it after their biggest hit), then sat back and watched the albums fly off shelves. For Portland, Oregon’s Guantanamo Baywatch (who genuinely loves the rock & roll and surf rock vibes they’re well-known for lovingly mutilating), the ’60s was it. The band exhausts every effort to keep that spirit instilled, and not just as an active haunt in modern music. In their crass way, they warp time to become an extension of that exact period of rock. “It was just a cheap way for them to sell records back in the day, putting a hot girl on the front,” says guitarist and vocalist Jason Powell. “So it’s sort of like everything that we do from the album, songwise and artwise, you’re supposed to get that this is kind of a thing that we – not even like we’re trying to do something for an aesthetic, it’s just I love this kind of music. And I
don’t want to be copying it. I’d like to be included in the canon of that kind of music legitimately.” With their latest release, Darling … It’s Too Late, the band steered away from their surf rock roots and their early lo-fi recording habits to create an album that’s set apart from the live experience you’ll have with the same songs. At Atlanta’s Living Room Recording, Guantanamo Baywatch found recording masterminds who could help the previously-DIY four-track tinkerers achieve the sound they secretly always wanted for their slanted-oldies songwriting tendencies. This included the ability to apply much more muted effects when employing reverb or echoes (Powell describes a Captain Obvious-like creative epiphany from working with better tools leveraged by informed engineers), and most importantly the opportunity to add back-up vocals you can actually hear in the mix. “So much recorded music right now, especially garage rock stuff, is really lo-fi, and it’s a cool aesthetic,” Powell says. “But sometimes I listen to the stuff like, ‘Man, I wish I could hear the lyrics.’ Or, I can tell the guitar is doing something cool, but I can’t really tell what it’s doing. A lot of

times if you’re recording really lo-fi, you don’t have that much room, you know, like sonic room to put in shit like back-up vocals. It’s really hard to do back-up vocals that don’t make stuff sound really muddy on a lo-fi platform. So it was cool. We could do all the back-up vocals I always wanted to do.” Five tour vans ago (back when backup vocals were just a hazy dream), Guantanamo Baywatch headed out on their inaugural tour with one especially creepy stop. Huge John Waters fans, the band appropriated and altered the cover art for Waters’ 1986 book Crackpot for a random, very limited cassette that Powell says he can’t even remember why they made, or what songs were on it. Then they had a friend (a former Facebook employee and stalker-skilled hacker) track down Waters’ address before they got to Baltimore. Once there, they knocked but no one answered, so they left an offering: a pizza box with their debut LP (Postcard From the Tar Pitz), the cassette and postcards, plus a Gatorade bottle full of tar they’d collected in the La Brea Tar Pits in Los Angeles. Fast-forward to this summer when Guantanamo Baywatch will at last meet the curious cult figure for the first time at Burger Records’ Burger Boogaloo on 4th of July, which Waters is slotted to host. “My dream is that what’s going to happen is we’re gonna get to the Boogaloo and get on stage and in some weird fantasy that I have, he’s gonna be on stage and introduce the band and he’ll have the tape,” Powell says.

Melt Banana BY B AO L E - H U U

Although Japanese noise punks
Melt Banana have a long history of playing Orlando, they don’t come too often. So each time they roll through, it’s like the warm excitation of seeing an old friend – a dear, volcanic old friend. We’re one of the lucky cities to regularly experience their legendary live shows, but they stay away just long enough that the sheer power and revelation of it always singes your face anew each time. Their latest (May 28, Backbooth) was Orlando’s first time seeing them stripped down to just the core duo of frontwoman Yako and surgical-masked shredder Agata. With other bands, this could be a heart-draining prospect, but not for these creative savages. Agata still does what he does, which is summon the sound of natural disasters with his guitar. Besides her usual blistering vocals, Yako now handles the remaining programmed audio with an illuminated hand pad. But Melt Banana’s predilection is more Lightning Bolt than Anamanaguchi, so this arrangement’s a little different. But not an inch less in intensity or insanity, if not a bit more complementary to their freaky conceptual streak. Live, they compensate for fewer personnel with a more confrontational plan that pushes their whole sound rig right up to the front of the stage. One thing this lineup and organization does exceptionally right is really spotlight how powerful and underrated a front force Yako is, with a presence that does an astonishing amount of the performance heavy lifting. Even with a smaller crew, this show was maximum
Agata still does what he does: summon the sound of natural disasters with his guitar. Melt Banana. Just ask the flying bodies on the floor. All smiles and slams, this was one of the most joyful pits you’ll ever see. Right before was reconstituted Ralph Ameduri-associated local band the Hamiltons, who play a noisy, thick-ribbed brand of American punk rock. They were decent when they performed the latest Ralphfest back in February, but they’re already much more locked in now and looking like a band building a new head of steam. One of their meaty songs stoked the beginning of a decent pit. Then frontman Robert English squashed it by stopping the music, expressing appreciation for the zeal but coming in defense of those peacefully trying to enjoy the show – you know, the punk show. Well, you don’t see that every day. It was a courteous thing to some people at least, but it was a little like getting doused by an ice bucket during a hot fuck. Still, some subsequent crowd awkwardness notwithstanding, the Hamiltons delivered a good, gutsy set.
The BeaT
Geographically, Jackson Scott (May 25, Will’s Pub) is based in North Carolina, but he’s really from somewhere very
much else. And who knows how long the 20-something has been on this permatrip of his, but he first blipped on the national radar in 2013 via Fat Possum, who released his debut album ((Melbourne Melbourne). Melbourne). On stage, his trio kicks out a fried kind of sunshine that scrambles nice pop melodies with eccentric instincts. His simple, pretty songs seldom stay that way, invariably bursting eventually into blossoms of unpredictability. Not all of it sticks but given psychedelic music’s oftenlax marksmanship, his bull’s-eye moments of clarity and shine are notably frequent. Most importantly, his sound can never be accused of being ordinary. Perhaps the biggest surprise, however, was the one act on the bill I’d already seen before: Lakeland indie-rock band Poster. When I saw these kids back in January opening for St. Louis’ Bruiser Queen at St. Matthew’s, they were pleasant, but more promise than contender. Between then and now, however, something happened, something significant. They’ve gotten tighter, fuller and altogether more decisive. That’s a great thing because within those easy, ringing jangles is some fine, shimmering pop craft, maybe some of the best I’ve seen from the area’s current freshman class. They’re nonames right now, but that ought to change. After this show, they move up into a new bracket on my list because this is a band that’s now got the stuff to start making some waves in the area. You’re unlikely to find cool-zephyr jams as perfect for summer as this. baolehuu@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

OUR PICKS FOR THE BEST EVENTS THIS WEEK Wednesday, 3
Redlight Redlight Tenth Anniversary Week kick-off The craft beer culture is so deeply ingrained in the Orlando psyche that we can hardly remember a time when we felt like our choices were limited to the Big Breweries and fizzy, yellow-colored beer-water. When we go out now, we find ourselves searching taps for our favorite IPAs, brown ales, bocks and specialty beers. And we owe much of that to Redlight Redlight, the bar that was schooling us on the finer points of beer appreciation before we even knew our Belgian beers from our ESBs. Remember to show Redlight Redlight all of your love this week as it celebrates a decade of raising the beer bar in Orlando,

The bar is giving you every reason to just show up, drink beer and give thanks that we live in a brew-enlightened city.

Curren$y Pilot Talk III Tour
Although label drama in Curren$y’s past limited his early output, he’s made it up big time since his 2010 debut, Pilot Talk. Already this year, the saucy rapper has released a full-length, Pilot Talk III, as well as a new EP, Even More Saturday Night Car Tunes, attacking the game with alternate marketing strategies for each. For Pilot Talk III, fans had to hit Jet Life Recordings’ website (the rapper’s label) to buy a $100 USB key and unlock the critically favored album. It certainly created buzz and demand while more casual (read: more broke) fans made do with the EP, which you can stream on CURREN$Y Spotify and find MUSIC

June First Friday: Local Love For a city and a mayor that have taken so much well-deserved flak for jumping on the bandwagon of banning homeless feeding in NIMBY cul-de-sacs (or even at Lake Eola), it’s great to see Mayor Buddy Dyer out front supporting this event, presented by Macbeth Photography. Playing off the recent “#rethinkhomelessness” meme – wherein we are all reminded that people without homes are not stereotypes, generally, but nice people suffering from the income inequality that stains our collective era – this downtown First Friday event offers participants the chance to be photographed nearest their gerrymandered segments of Orlando holding ART

Turbo Fruits Is it possible Turbo Fruits accidentally gave their album the wrong name? Instead of the raging punk tremble of previous releases, No Control is almost bizarrely even-tempered and their most polished effort to date. The Nashville garage rockers swapped “Sweet Thang” (Butter) for No Control’s sweetheart/“Favorite Girl” amid the album’s other more straightforward discussion points. Call it maturity, maybe. But if you want to say it’s a sign of selling out or mainstream label interference, guess again, because they funded the effort basically all by themselves. Think of it like the passed-out dude at the party

The Originals: 16 Years of Artwork at Stardust Video & Coffee If you were to try and name Orlando’s longest-running gallery, chances are you might not guess Stardust Video & Coffee, the video store-turned-coffee joint-turned-sandwich spot-turned-music venue-turned-bar. As indicated by that clunky hyphenate, Stardust has always morphed into whatever it needs to be
ART
for the people who populate it, and as a lot of them are artists (including Katherine Bennett, one of the original Stardust founders), a place to show their work was among those needs. As local artist and Stardustian Doug Rhodehamel notes, “Some of Orlando’s best artists had their very first shows at Stardust.” To celebrate 16, they’re bringing back many of the original artists alongside some newer ones (like current ’dust curator Vanessa Andrade), including well-loved names like Anna McCambridge, Terry Hummel, Brian Phillips, Jaime Margary, Kim Darovec, Brigan Gresh, Andrew White, Morgan Steele, and Rhodehamel and Bennett, of course. Also to be revealed at the opening: the official name of the gallery, aka “the room to the left of the espresso machine.” (A truly ancient Orlandoan tells us the room was at one time called “Welch Hall,” named in honor of irascible jazz drummer Michael Welch, but any way of confirming that fact seems to have vanished into the mists of time.) Come celebrate. As befits any Truly Serious Art Opening, there will be cheese. – Jessica Bryce Young

classic 1980s films sure to evoke some nostalgia – ideally unaccompanied by the hairspray fumes or Trapper Keepers. June’s choice is the timeless film The Breakfast Club, a movie that somehow manages to become more enthralling every (hundredth) “Time After Time” it’s seen. All you need to take part is a pair of PJs for the “Best Pajamas” contest and an ’80s-inspired cocktail. As we know from the film, “When you grow up, your heart dies,” so let’s not grow up. Instead, let’s act like kids and be excited for this decadesold resuscitation. – Kimberlee Bochek

Obituary
Forever shaking Central Florida metal heads to lift their heavy lids and rise up in the pit, Obituary unexpectedly shreds through Sanford’s West End Trading Co. this week. So wake up before you miss their 30-year thrash, because this is not part of any tour or multi-city experience. This is a Florida-only exclusive date. Serious black-clad longhairs know that last year the death metal legends unleashed their first new album in five years, Inked in Blood. It features 12 new songs performed by a shifted lineup that now includes a new bassist and lead guitarist to keep on slaying in 2015. Plus, Inked was scrawled, mixed and recorded in Florida’s freakshow city, Gibsonton (where Obituary’s now based). But don’t mistake Obituary for a sideshow act – they’ll be the main event atop a fat bill whose weight we’d never be able to guess that includes regional heavy hitters like Shattered, Emporos, Thrashaholica and Lacerate. – Ashley Belanger

ARIES (March 21-April 19) The Persian scholar Avicenna was so well-rounded in his knowledge that he wrote two different encyclopedias. Even as a teenager he was obsessed with learning all he could. He got especially consumed with trying to master Aristotle’s Metaphysics, which did not easily yield its secrets to him. He read it 40 times, memorizing every word. When he finally understood it, he was so excited he celebrated by giving out money and gifts to destitute strangers. I suspect you will soon be having an equivalent breakthrough. At last you will grasp a truth that has eluded you for a long time. Congratulations in advance! TAURUS (April 20-May 20) When it’s rush hour in Tokyo, unwieldy crowds of commuters board the trains and subways. They often need help at squeezing in. Railway workers known as oshiya, or pushers, provide the necessary force. Wearing crisp uniforms, white gloves and neat hats, they cram the last stragglers into each car. I foresee the possibility of you being called on to perform a metaphorical version of the service these pushers provide. Is there a polite and respectful way for you to be indelicate in a worthy cause? Could you bring light-hearted tact to bear as you seek an outcome that encourages everyone to compromise? GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Nobel Prize-winning physicists Wolfgang Pauli and Niels Bohr were both amused at how counterintuitive their innovative theories seemed. Once Pauli was lecturing a group of eminent scientists about a radical new hypothesis. Bohr got out of his seat in the audience and walked up to the front to interrupt his colleague. “We all agree that your theory is crazy,” Bohr told Pauli. “The question that divides us is whether it is crazy enough to have a chance of being correct. My own feeling is that it is not crazy enough.” Pauli defended himself. “It is crazy enough!” he said. But Bohr was insistent. “It’s not crazy enough!” he argued. I’m going to pose a comparable query to you. Are your new ideas and possibilities crazy enough to be true? Make sure they are. CANCER (June 21-July 22) You’ve wandered into an awkward phase of your cycle. Missed connections have aroused confusion. Disjointed events have led to weirdness. I’ve got a suggestion for how you might be able to restore clarity and confidence: Make a foray into a borderland and risk imaginative acts of heroism. Does that sound too cryptic or spooky? How about if I say it like this: Go on an unpredictable quest that will free your trapped vitality, or try a mysterious experiment that will awaken your sleeping magic. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Gesamtkunstwerk is a German word that can be translated as “total art work” or “all-embracing art form.” It refers to a creative masterpiece that makes use of several genres. The 19th-century composer Richard Wagner had this in mind when he produced his opera cycle The Ring of the Nibelung, which included orchestral music, singing, theater and literature. I’m invoking the spirit of Gesamtkunstwerk for your use. The coming weeks will be an excellent time to synthesize and coordinate all the things you do best, and express them with a flourish. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Defender was a popular video game that young people played in video arcades during the 1980s. Fifteen-year-old Steve Juraszek was profiled in Time magazine after he racked up a record-breaking 16 million points while playing the game for 16 hours straight. But when his high school principal found out that Juraszek had skipped classes to be at the arcade, he was suspended. I’m wondering if there may soon be a similar development in your own life. Will you have to pay a small price for your success? You should at least be prepared to risk an acceptable loss in order to accomplish an important goal.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) People I meet are sometimes taken aback by the probing questions I ask them. Recently an acquaintance said to me, “Why don’t you feel driven to talk about yourself all the time, like everyone else?” I told him the truth: “Being curious is just the way I was made. Maybe it’s because of my Mercury in Gemini, or my seventh-house sun, or my three planets in Libra.” I suspect that you are due to go through a phase similar to the mode I’m so familiar with. If it doesn’t happen naturally, I suggest you coax it out. You need to be extra inquisitive. You’ll benefit from digging as deeply as you dare. The more information you uncover, the better your decisions will be. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) I love to watch an evolved Scorpio get his or her needs met by helping other people get their needs met. It’s thrilling to behold the paradoxical Scorpio assets in action: the combination of manipulativeness and generosity; the animal magnetism working in service to the greater good; the resourceful willpower that carries out hidden agendas and complex strategies designed to make the world a better place. I expect to see a lot of this idiosyncratic wisdom from you in the coming weeks. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) “Would that life were like the shadow cast by a wall or a tree,” says the Talmud. “But it is like the shadow of a bird in flight.” That’s a lyrical sentiment, but I don’t agree with it. I’ve come to prefer the shimmering dance over the static stance. The ever-shifting play of light and dark is more interesting to me than the illusion of stability. I feel more at home in the unpredictable flow than in the stagnant trance of certainty. What about you? I suggest that in the immediate future you cultivate an appreciation for the joys and challenges of the shimmering dance. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) The core of your horoscope comes from the poem “A Color of the Sky” by Tony Hoagland. Imagine that you are the “I” who is saying the following: “What I thought was an end turned out to be a middle. What I thought was a brick wall turned out to be a tunnel. What I thought was an injustice turned out to be a color of the sky.” Please understand that speaking these words might not make total sense to you yet. You may have to take them on faith until you gather further evidence. But I urge you to speak them anyway. Doing so will help generate the transformations you need in order to make them come true. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Lessons in luck are coming your way. Will they help you attract more luck? Maybe. Will they show you how to make better use of your luck? Maybe. A lot depends on your ability to understand and love the paradox of luck. I’ve assembled a few enigmatic teachings to prepare you. 1) “Luck is believing you’re lucky.” - Tennessee Williams; 2) “It is a great piece of skill to know how to guide your luck even while waiting for it.” - Baltasar Gracián; 3) “Sometimes not getting what you want is a brilliant stroke of luck.” - Lorii Myers; 4) “The harder I work, the luckier I get.” - Samuel Goldwyn; 5) “You’ve got to try your luck at least once a day, because you could be going around lucky all day and not even know it.” - Jimmy Dean; 6) “Go and wake up your luck.” - Persian proverb. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) The word “boudoir” means a woman’s bedroom. But hundreds of years ago, it had a more specific definition. It was a room where a well-bred girl was sent when she was pouting. “Boudoir” is derived from the French verb bouder, which means “to sulk.” If it were in my power, I would send you to the sulking room right now. In fact, I would encourage you to sulk. In my opinion, a good long sulk would be just the right prescription for you. It would trigger brainstorms about how to change the soggy, foggy conditions that warranted your sulking in the first place.
Meet the adorable Sheba (Animal ID A278622). She’s a 5-year-old friendly dog who loves to get belly rubs. She’s also very smart – she knows how to sit and shake on command, and she loves to receive treats as a reward for her great listening skills. Sheba weighs in at 70 pounds, which makes her a big girl, but that just means there’s more of her to love. If you’re looking to adopt a gentle giant, adopt Sheba. Sheba is at orange County animal Services, 2769 Conroy Road, 407396-3111, ocnetpets.com.

B Y D A N S AVA G E I’m a 35-year-old divorced man. I’ve been on plenty of dates since my marriage ended, but I invariably get asked this question on or before date No. 2: “Why did you get divorced?” This is where everything goes to shit. I’m honest: “We got divorced because I cheated on my wife. A lot.” This usually catches my date off guard. I can hardly get past date No. 2 after this, because this information is “too much to handle.” Not even other cheaters are interested in seeing me again. I was a good husband and father for seven years. But after four sexless years of marriage, I strayed. Crying myself to sleep every night took its toll, and I selfmedicated with casual sex with attractive women. Two years and 20 women later, I got caught. I don’t hide the facts; I own my mistakes. I’ve grown and learned from my mistakes. But it’s hard for most women to see past “cheater.” Anything less than complete honesty would validate the belief that I’m still a lying cheat. But complete honesty is kicking my ass. Forthright About Cheating, Then Silence
I’m going to give you the benefit of the doubt, and assume that mistreatment, neglect and stress didn’t extinguish your wife’s libido. I’m also going to assume that you made a good-faith effort to address the sexless state of your marriage before you began self-medicating with all those beautiful women. And I’m going to allow for the possibility that your wife may have married you under false pretenses, i.e., she wasn’t into sex or you or both. These favorable assumptions don’t exonerate you of all responsibility for cheating on your wife. But if they’re accurate, they do put your cheating in a particular guilt-mitigating context. And that’s what you need to do when you answer that question about why your marriage ended: Put your cheating in context. Most people intuitively understand that wedding vows aren’t sexual suicide pacts and are capable of feeling sympathy for those who find themselves in sexless marriages. But instead of emphasizing the context in which you cheated, you’re emphasizing the breakdick pace at which you cheated and the quality of the pussy you landed. “I cheated! A lot!” is one telling of the truth, but it’s not the most flattering or the most comforting. Instead of saying, “I cheated with 20 women, all of them babes. I banged the living shit out of each and every one of them!” try saying something like this: “After four sexless years of marriage, I strayed. It was the wrong thing to do, but I was desperate. The cheating ended my marriage, which obviously needed to end, but it’s not something I ever want to do again.” Omit the detail about the number of women you cheated with while emphasizing your determination to avoid making the same mistake in your next committed relationship. Tell your date that you are looking for a strong sexual connection (and other things) with someone you can communicate with about sex (and other things). Because you’re not a cheater – not anymore. I’m a 36-year-old heterosexual female who has been reading you for the better part of 20 years. That’s why when my formerly lovely husband descended into a hellish depression that turned our 10-year marriage into a loveless, sexless, miserable

thing that I didn’t recognize, I knew what I had to do. I began an emotionally fulfilling, sanity-saving affair with a married man in the same situation. My emotional and sexual needs are getting met for the first time in years. The problem is that when we are together, my mind goes to how much I wish we could both chuck our marriages and be together all of the time, and I feel more miserable in my marriage because I can’t help comparing the two men in my life. Do you have any advice for keeping from mentally going to “happily ever after” when you are trying to stay balanced in marriage-savingaffair land? Secret Affair Necessary Escape
An affair doesn’t come bundled with the same crap that a marriage does, SANE, so your time with Happy Affair Man isn’t burdened by mental and/or physical health crises, just as it’s not roughed up by ever-festering conflicts about money or chores or kids or all of the above. So let’s say you left Depressed Husband Man for Happy Affair Man, and he left his wife for you. How long would it be before you and Second Husband Man were facing down some similar crap or brand-new crap? Probably not long. You might be happier, but you won’t be happily-ever-after happier because no one ever is. The subject is moot, of course, if you’re not in a position to end your marriage and Happy Affair Man isn’t either. I have been in a gay relationship for almost six years, and we are getting married in September. We are both predominantly tops, so we’ve been having threesomes for the majority of the time we’ve been together. About eight months ago, we had a threesome with someone who has become a good friend. I have developed a strong bond with our third. My fiancé is not an overly affectionate person, and while I’ve been able to overlook that, these past months have shown me how much I long for physical affection. My fiancé is threatened by the two of us showing affection. I reassure him as best I can, but nothing I say makes him feel less threatened by my wanting to have alone time with our third. I do not want to give up the bond I have with our third, and I have zero intention of leaving my fiancé. If we could help him get more comfortable, it could be a perfect situation for everyone, with all of our needs being met. Sincerely Perplexed Lad In Triad
Seeing as your third sounds like a better match for you than your fiancé in several important ways – bottom to your top, more physically affectionate – I’m wondering why you wouldn’t want to dump the fiancé to run off with your third. Your fiancé is probably wondering the same thing. Unless your fiancé is willing to enter into a polyamorous triad, SPLIT, you’ll probably have to pick one or the other. And seeing as how you employ “we” in your last sentence – in reference to you and the third, not you and the fiancé – it sounds like you’ve already made your choice. On the Lovecast, Dan chats with Seattle author Jason Schmidt about his memoir, A List of Things That Didn’t Kill Me.

STATE OF FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION NOTICE OF INTENT TO ISSUE PERMIT The Department of Environmental Protection gives notice of its intent to issue a permit to Enterprise Leasing Co. of Orlando (5442 Hoffner Ave, Orlando, Florida 32812) to construct and operate a 0.010 mgd industrial wastewater treatment facility to treat and reuse the wastewater generated in washing a fleet of cars. The facility will be located at latitude 28o 29’ 22.49” N, longitude 81o 22’ 23.77” W on 4988 S Orange Ave, Orlando, in Orange County, Florida, 32812. There will be discharge of wastewater from this facility to ground or surface waters of the State. The Department has assigned permit file number 48-FLA898597-001-IW9B to the proposed project. The intent to issue and application file are available for public inspection during normal business hours, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, except legal holidays, at the Department’s Central District Office, 3319 Maguire Blvd, Suite 232, Orlando, Florida 32803-3767, at phone number (407)897-4100. The Department will issue the permit with the attached conditions unless a timely petition for an administrative hearing is filed under Sections 120.569 and 120.57, Florida Statutes, within fourteen days of receipt of notice. The procedures for petitioning for a hearing are set forth below. A person whose substantial interests are affected by the Department’s proposed permitting decision may petition for an administrative proceeding (hearing) under Sections 120.569 and 120.57, Florida Statutes. The petition must contain the information set forth below and must be filed (received by the Clerk) in the Office of General Counsel of the Department at 3900 Commonwealth Boulevard, Mail Station 35, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-3000. Under Rule 62-110.106(4), Florida Administrative Code, a person may request an extension of the time for filing a petition for an administrative hearing. The request must be filed (received by the Clerk) in the Office
of General Counsel before the end of the time period for filing a petition for an administrative hearing. Petitions filed by any persons other than those entitled to written notice under Section 120.60(3), Florida Statutes, must be filed within fourteen days of publication of the notice or within fourteen days of receipt of the written notice, whichever occurs first. Section 120.60(3), Florida Statutes, however, also allows that any person who has asked the Department in writing for notice of agency action may file a petition within fourteen days of receipt of such notice, regardless of the date of publication. The petitioner shall mail a copy of the petition to the applicant at the address indicated above at the time of filing. The failure of any person to file a petition or request for an extension of time within fourteen days of receipt of notice shall constitute a waiver of that person’s right to request an administrative determination (hearing) under Sections 120.569 and 120.57, Florida Statutes. Any subsequent intervention (in a proceeding initiated by another party) will be only at the discretion of the presiding officer upon the filing of a motion in compliance with Rule 28-106.205, Florida Administrative Code. A petition that disputes the material facts on which the Department’s action is based must contain the following information, as indicated in Rule 28-106.201, Florida Administrative Code: (a) The name and address of each agency affected and each agency’s file or identification number, if known; (b) The name, address, any e-mail address, any facsimile number, and telephone number of the petitioner, if the petitioner is not represented by an attorney or a qualified representative; the name, address, and telephone number of the petitioner’s representative, if any, which shall be the address for service purposes during the course of the proceeding; and an explanation of how the petitioner’s substantial interests will be affected by the determination; (c) A statement of when and how the petitioner received notice of the Department’s decision; (d) A statement of all disputed issues of material fact. If there are none, the petition must so indicate; (e) A concise statement of the ultimate facts alleged, including the specific facts the petitioner contends warrant reversal or modification of the Department’s proposed action; (f) A statement of the specific rules or statutes the petitioner contends require reversal or modification of the Department’s proposed action, including an explanation of how the alleged facts relate to the specific rules or statutes; and (g) A statement of the relief sought by the petitioner, stating precisely the action petitioner wishes the Department to take with respect to the Department’s proposed action. Because the administrative hearing process is designed to formulate final agency action, the filing of a petition means that the Department’s final action may be different from the position taken by it in this notice. Persons whose substantial interests will be affected by any such final decision of the Department have the right to petition to become a party to the proceeding, in accordance with the requirements set forth above. Mediation under Section 120.573, Florida Statutes, is not available for this proceeding.
