The Dating Game is notoriously competitive. For those of us who are in it, we know It’s a Jungle Out There. The Pick-Up Artist (PUA) teaches men how to navigate this rocky terrain, but it's not rocket science, folks.

Dan Rather's Magnum Opus | By William Rivers Pitt
His face was once a totem, a comforting TV-screen touchstone. His voice and inflection lent suppertime credence to the myth of American permanence, safety and dependability, night after night, for a quarter of a century.

Can We Talk? | By Mike Ferner
"This began as a story about the Iraq Veterans Against the War (IVAW) "Truth in Recruiting" campaign. But by the end, it seemed more like a story about whether or not we can still talk with each other in this country." Mike Ferner, an outspoken vet, takes the podium again.

What is it About Libra? | By Eric Francis
"As usual, there is a great woman behind every idiot," opined John Lennon, who was a great man with a great woman next to him. Every astrologer has their poster children for the various signs, and Lennon is one of mine for Libra. I am not alone.

T-Shirt! | Psychsound by Steve Bergstein
The first causalty of war is the loss of life. The second casualty is the truth. And the third is the loss of civil liberties. With the stroke of a pen last year, President Bush wiped out Habeas Corpus for certain detainees.
