Re: BEWITCHED

God rest Elizabeth Montgomery since she died of rectal cancer in 1995, but Barbara Eden is still around. I think both of these shows caught the zeitgiest of the time in different ways and this accounts for their success and longer life in rerun and cableland. But clearly, their hold of millions of people's interest into the 21st century is a credit to our fascination with the convergence of mortal meeting magic. Though Bewitched was first on television, it was based on the two movies Bell,...

That kind of stupid trash has probably been taught to teenagers since teenagers were invented. I too heard the abstinence bell tolling, but happily I got to frolick all through the free-love/early birth-control/pre-AIDS window of opportunity. Liberty, freedom of choice...? Everyone should be able to enjoy a phase of unrestrained promiscuity, esp. at age 15 when you are cute as hell and on sexual overdrive! It is a self-taught education that I never regretted... The more intelligent amongst...

Short answer to "colorful abandon" - yes. You should definitely check out "Cheryl" if you like the parties @ Cosmic Cavern. We're not associated with either but highly recommend both. Long answer/comparison: Cosmic Crowd: polysexual/queer, mixed, underground/hipster with a very high percentage of notable personalities & local celebrities. Costumes & crowd participation.

Re: Sylvia Plath

Imagine this... A 15 year old student in Mr. Levy's high school creative writing class. The poem read that day- "Tulips," by Sylvia Plath. The student was me. My world was totally rocked by the power of the written word, the relentless cadence, the brutal, hallucinatory imagery, the fact that there was not a single unecessary word... This early exposure to the work of Ms. Plath changed my perception of what a poet was and could be. It also introduced me to the so-called "Confessional School"...
