ONE THUMB SIDEWAYS
Central Florida’s media landscape underwent a momentous shift last Friday, Nov. 19, when Orlando Sentinel movie critic Jay Boyar confirmed in print a rumor that had been making the rounds for a week and a half: He’s leaving his post after 22 years to become the paper’s travel editor. The changeover is reportedly part of…
CALLING ALL REAL TURKEY LOVERS
It’s that turkey-centric time of year, and for the sensitive vegetarians and vegans among us, it can be a downer to think of all the scavengers nibbling on carcasses that could total 45 million nationwide. But there are alternatives to feasting on fowl and an organization dedicated to spreading the word: the Orlando Animal Rights…
Buddy gets a new ride and city poops on dogs eating on patios
Buddy Dyer’s got himself a new ride. Hizzoner will soon be cruising in a shiny black $31,000 2005 Ford Expedition that’s about a half-block long and probably gets 12 mpg, city, as befitting the head of a sprawling megalopolis like New York. This being Orlando, we had to wonder, it’s our job. The car is…
REJECTED AND COLLECTED
Nowadays, they say that the best barometer of a box set’s quality is the amount of unreleased material that it contains, a philosophy that leads to collections that are more like legal bootlegs with good sound quality (see The Beatles’ Anthology series) than well-rounded analyses. This is a new metric. In the past, box sets…
CUT AND RUN
To even the most fickle sets of industry eyes, the Scissor Sisters are an unlikely proposition. Swept up out of New York performance-art anonymity and thrown onto European arena stages with Elton John and Duran Duran, before being driven by some unknown force into your British great-aunt’s iPod and her granddaughter’s boom box, the overseas…
BACK TO THE FUTURE
They got their respective starts a decade and thousands of miles apart, but Lyrics Born and RJD2 are of the same school when it comes to the music. “It seems like a good fit,” Lyrics Born says of his choice of touring mate. “He makes hip-hop that leans in a bunch of different directions and…
“A depot awareness”
To hear LYNX talk up its new Central Station transit terminal – which began admitting passengers last week – you’d think that Orlando had just witnessed the rebuilding of the ferchrissakes World Trade Center. But all the company’s crowing over the terminal’s up-to-the-minute capabilities can’t obscure the fact that the people who really frequent bus…
Bond, Slayer/Mastodon, Cub Country, Auto Show and more
Thursday • 25 CENTRAL FLORIDA INTERNATIONAL AUTO SHOW Fast cars, foxy ladies and free stuff – the pull has got to be strong to get turkey-stuffers off those couches and away from TV sets. So they aim to please at this annual futuristic round-up, the convention center floor spilling over with fine rides. Among the…
LET’S PRETEND WE’RE MARRIED
California novelist T.C. Boyle has long been obsessed with the 1960s and the decade’s fallout. In his Budding Prospects (1984), two guys try to get rich by growing pot. In Drop City (2003), hippies and burnouts attempt to live off the land and fail spectacularly. With his latest, The Inner Circle, Boyle takes a look…
PEE-WEE JEEBIES
As Paul Reubens fidgeted in his comfy chair on Nov. 18’s Late Night With Conan O’Brien – hair shorn back to a suitable Pee-wee stubble and eyes alive with the bizarro wonder that made him an ’80s ubiquity – something odd transpired. In the midst of recounting recent stories of awkward celebrity at the Los…
THE COAL PARADOX
“The truth is, I don’t know when things will get back to normal for me,” says Orlando resident and University of Central Florida biology student Derek Sinns, as he flips through the channels on his friend’s television set. “Those hurricanes got me pretty good. They cleaned out my wallet.” After staring blankly at the screen…
DEATH TRACTS
After seeing the movie The Grudge, it occurred to me that a particular aspect of real estate could be a lot more frightening than rising interest rates. I’m talking about houses haunted by spirits who died in the grip of a terrible rage. For that matter, I’m also talking of houses haunted by wraiths who…
NOT JUST FOR SPORES ANYMORE
New Scientist magazine reported in October that psychologists seem to be reclassifying people who are permanently uninterested in sex. The old notion was that such behavior was a disorder but the emerging position is that it is merely a sexual preference of “none of the above.” (Asexuals profess no sexual attraction at all, ranging from…
GIVING, THANKS
This being Thanksgiving (by virtue of deadline-to-print-date lag, mind you), and me being averse to L-Tryptophan bathed in lard, I thought it might be a good time to consider the nonperishable qualities of life that continue to impede my next suicide attempt, melodramatic breakdown, or single. Ah, there are blue skies, dragonflies, day lilies and…
