We've all heard the saying \life is like a river"" or some
variation of it. Our lives pass as a river flows along its banks:
swift, wild and ever changing. We are helpless to control it and
must only ""go with the flow."" In this vein, Bruce Murkoff's first
novel, ""Waterborne,"" follows four lives looking for something new
around the next bend of their own personal rivers.

Sometime in the last five years, I became intensely aware of
just how rude and inconsiderate many moviegoers are. Without fail,
I always manage to sit next to some complete moron that's just
begging for a swift tire-iron upside the head. People pay up to $10
to go see a film in a theater and then act no differently than if
it were playing in their comfy living room. So, in the vein of
stand-up comedian George Carlin's bit \Complaints and Grievances,""
here's a simple list of movie-goers who oughta be killed.

Pattern surrounds us, from striped wallpaper to the rows of
books on bookshelves. The underlying concept behind pattern is
repetition-repetition is key to understanding a pattern when we see
it. \Repeat, Repeat,"" showing through March 8 at the Gallery of
Design, exhibits four artists who use pattern to explore concepts
and process in their work. As part of the School of Human Ecology
Centennial Year exhibition series, ""Repeat, Repeat"" relies on the
viewer's knowledge of pattern as connected to the world of textiles
and interiors in order to come across as a coherent body of work.

In a 1993 Internet chat, \The Simpsons"" creator Matt Groening
was asked about the possibility of a ""Simpsons"" movie. Groening's
response would fuel more than 10 years of geek speculation and
anticipation, saying a film ""is way down the line."" That
non-committal string of hope is all fans have had to go on-until
now.

Americans like to imagine themselves an enlightened lot who have
embraced diversity, inner beauty and all things humanistic.
However, there still exists a domestic population which remains
stigmatized on the basis of physical appearance: those of us
possessed of markedly light complexions.

A little while back, my buddy Skippy admonished me for not being
positive even once in my columns this year. After soundly drubbing
him with insults geared towards his loved ones, I realized he made
a point. I have never been positive or thankful for anything I've
seen in sports this year. So what am I thankful for?

With this month's release of , Iggy Pop has entered his 34th
year of recording music. Still heroin-thin with ghostly silver hair
and knotted veins stretched over bone, Iggy is a barely covered
skeleton. And he has been recording music that sounds like he looks
for over three decades.

I'm not one to brag, and I have been known to suffer the
occasional bout of hyperbole, but I think it's safe to say that I
have divined the means by which to rid the world of all current
ill: human hamster balls.

Patty Friedmann's new book \Secondhand Smoke"" rolls in like a
malevolent fog, gets into the lungs and raises the phlegm from the
deep recesses of the alveoli. It is a work to cough back up, trying
to return some of the detritus that it produces. The smoke of the
title flows deeply in the veins of every character and leaves a
thick black film on every surface it touches. The book itself is
not composed of the same dank moisture of the fog, but its people
contain more toxic wisps of bad air than can easily be
handled.
