Much to the dismay of Drew Carey, Martin Mull and Craig Ehlo, it doesn't look as though the Cleveland Indians' latest surge will land them in this year's Fall Classic. The Indians are 38-13 since July 31 and cut a 15-game division lead for the White Sox down to 1.5 games faster than John Garland's Cy Young hopes turned to \hopefully letting the bullpen nap until the fifth"" hopes.

More than once in gas stations, bars and homes I heard people remark that a disaster of this magnitude belongs somewhere else. The simple yet remarkable fact that the words efugee camps"" were being used to describe the immediate future of our fellow Americans testified to the unraveling of certain, almost mythical truths that Americans hold about America. In more ways than one, the images ran against everything we believe is America.

Most audiences regard film as a purely escapist medium and venture out to multiplexes week after week seeking distraction from the ubiquitous stress of everyday life.
