  • SCENE 6: VANYA WE LICKED POSTAGE STAMPS! We Didn't Have
    SCENE 6: VANYA WE LICKED POSTAGE STAMPS! We didn't have answering machines. You had to call people back. (MASHA moves away.) , We ate Spam, just like the soldiers in World War II did. (to SPIKE) Have you heard of World War II? We played Scrabble and Monopoly. We didn't play video games, in some virtual reality, where we would kill policeman and prostitutes as if that was some sort of entertainment. The popular entertainment wasn't so insane back then. It was sometimes corny, but sincere. We all saw the movie "Davy Crockett" and wore coonskin caps. That may not sound sane, wearing those caps, but it was very innocent. And we all did it, there was a solidarity about it, unlike being alone in your room killing prostitutes in a video game. We followed The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet. Which starred the real life Ozzie and Harriet Nelson.But "Adventures" was a strange word for the show because it was extremely uneventful. They did things like ...make popcorn in the kitchen. Or ...Iook for missing socks. In retrospect they seemed medicated. It was a stupid show, but it was calming. You didn't feel it was stirring people up and creating serial killers. I'm sorry I'm getting off the point. But my point is the 50s were idiotic but I miss parts of them. When I was 13 I saw Goldfingerwith Sean Connery as James Bond, and I didn't get the meaning of the character name of "Pussy Galore." Went right over my head.

  • Annette Funicello: Forever Young | Next Avenue 4/9/13 5:05 PM
    Annette Funicello: Forever Young | Next Avenue 4/9/13 5:05 PM From our sponsors : Annette Funicello: Forever Young As a child I was devastated by a rumor that she had died. I later watched her capture a city's heart. posted by John Stark, April 9, 2013 More by this author John Stark is the articles editor of Next Avenue. Follow John on Twitter @jrstark. I remember exactly where I was the moment I heard that Annette Funicello had died — some 56 years ago. It was the most shocking news I had ever heard, prior to the Kennedy assassination. The year was 1956. I was 8 years old. I was on a cement playground at the Evergreen Elementary School in Whittier, Calif., which was Richard Nixon’s hometown. I had stayed after school to play with some classmates. My friend Raleigh came over to me with a stunned look on his face. “I just heard that Annette died,” he told me. “She was killed in a car crash.” A few minutes later one of the Crabtree girls came running over with an update: “Darlene and Cubby were with her. They died too!” It was a Mouseketeer Annette Funicello in 1975 massacre. There was an iron slide in the center of the playground. I climbed the ladder to the platform at the top of it. But I didn’t go down the slide. I just stood there holding onto the handrails, looking out at the world, trying to comprehend what I had just heard. Annette — never Funicello, just Annette — was gone.

  • How Sports Help to Elect Presidents, Run Campaigns and Promote Wars."
    Abstract: Daniel Matamala In this thesis for his Master of Arts in Journalism from Columbia University, Chilean journalist Daniel Matamala explores the relationship between sports and politics, looking at what voters' favorite sports can tell us about their political leanings and how "POWER GAMES: How this can be and is used to great eect in election campaigns. He nds that -unlike soccer in Europe or Latin America which cuts across all social barriers- sports in the sports help to elect United States can be divided into "red" and "blue". During wartime or when a nation is under attack, sports can also be a powerful weapon Presidents, run campaigns for fuelling the patriotism that binds a nation together. And it can change the course of history. and promote wars." In a key part of his thesis, Matamala describes how a small investment in a struggling baseball team helped propel George W. Bush -then also with a struggling career- to the presidency of the United States. Politics and sports are, in other words, closely entwined, and often very powerfully so.
