The next issue of RS (issue #759 - with No Doubt on the cover) will have a
cover story/interview with the incredible edible
Andreeeeeesssssseeeeeeeeeen. He discusses push vs. pull and Ms, but the
most interesting thing i got out of it was that he has a $100,000 dollar
stereo in his living room. No pics of his girlfriend, but his dogs sure
are ugly.

Also, i just got back from a demonstration of HDTV at the Sony
Wonderstation (they made me go). To demonstrate this new revolutionary
technology (their words, not mine), they showed us three 15-minute films
(on a 300 square foot screen) shot in HDTV. The subjects of the 3 films?
NYC transvestities, Nazi hate groups, and mortuary practices. I can't wait
to see the children's matinee. As far as the technology - i didn't see a
difference. But of course, all i watch is the Simpsons, and i like them
fuzzy.
