It showed, boomed the executive, that such tests are idiotic. That's what it showed.

I think pop culture is the greatest subject matter out there - 'Other People's Lives,' as we wrote about on the last Duran Duran album.

A visible darkness grows up mountain paths;I lodge by the river gate high in a study,Frail cloud on a cliff edge passing the night.The lonely moon topples amid the waves;Steady, one after another, a line of cranes in flight.Howling over the kill, wild dogs and wolves.No sleep for me. I worry over battles-I have no strength to right the universe.
