Organic duckie, you’re the one
This is turning into a bad year for food lovers. Can’t eat beef, not too sure about chicken, and now British health officials are recommending no more than two servings of salmon a year! It’s either time to crack that can of Spam, or grab yourself an organic duck. Duck Haven Farm in Ocala (6920…
None more heavy
While mainstream alt-rock has striven to reinvent itself by visiting the garage in recent years, metal, in its pure form, has appeared to be nothing more than a rusted tool in yesteryear’s musical shed. However, Atlanta band Mastodon has refused to accept the notion that metal is extinct. “I think the classic metal sound has…
Wright’s wrongisms
I’m hearing voices in my head again. Not the usual angelic whispers of “Yes, you should have another” or “No, it isn’t just sex, it’s love.” But rather odd, raspy voices better suited to a dark Madison Avenue advertising office hell-bent on communicating ironic virtues to a generation that doesn’t care: You know, things like,…
Where no shill has gone before
Last week, President Bush called for a dramatic revitalization of America’s space program, laying out a plan under which mankind would return to the moon by 2020 and reach Mars sometime thereafter. Critics were quick to dismiss the proposal as a purely political election-year move, but Orlando Weekly has determined its viability through a foolproof…
At the drop of a blog
In a world where miscellany is this year’s topicality, the Cult of the Blog has taken on a monstrous life of its own — countless miscreants and ne’er-do-wells the world over are clack-clack-clacking unedited observations into the global lexicon while you sleep, quality control be damned. That said, however, even in the face of the…
The Heritage Project
This is Mrs. Patton. My mother worked at Rollins College, also as a maid, and Mrs. Patton was the housemother. Mrs. Patton was very kind to my mom, one of the few people that were. She was really kind, and she treated all of us Ã? gave all us gifts every Christmas. She was very…
The Harlem Document
The facial expressions and attitudes of the people are warm and familiar, even as the harsh environment of Depression-era Harlem portrays a hardscrabble existence. How did the late Aaron Siskind, a New Yorker of Russian Jewish heritage, manage to capture such intimate scenes from the lives of the mostly African-Americans who called Harlem home? Take,…
Keeping Time
Peter Schreyer grew up in Switzerland in the thick of the watch industry. Now in his late 40s, he is precise and steady, with kind manners, twinkly blue eyes and what remains of a Swiss accent. But stereotyping doesn’t suit the man, a documentary photographer, and his missions. For the last 25 years in Central…
Score one for the MBI
A year ago, Vicky Gallas embarrassed the Metropolitan Bureau of Investigation, the agency that serves as Central Florida’s vice squad, by not going to jail. In a two-week trial that capped an MBI investigation dating back to 1994, prosecutors claimed that her business, Valentine’s Escort Service, was a front for a wide-reaching prostitution ring, and…
Bad Buddy and the Undemocrats
(Disclaimer: The boss of Slug, Inc. is taking time off spending afternoons sipping cold beverages. The world will return to normal next week.) I want to support Buddy Dyer. Really, I do. I mean, I endorsed him last year, so if he performs well my prognosticator cred gets a boost. But more than that, I…
Big box or bust
The retailing giant Wal-Mart must be nirvana for black people. Its commercials, full of sentimental background music, soft focus photography and earnest-looking real people give the impression that it is just short of heaven on Earth. I have seen a commercial showing a black mother exhorting her daughter to pursue a career at Wal-Mart. In…
