My dog is a liberal

By Alyson Brodsy and Lindsay Kerrigan · Sunday, July 24,2005 9:54 p.m.

My dog is a liberal. Cut her some slack. We come from a broken home -- my mother is a Democrat and my father is a Republican. It's really been very hard on us all. Audrey -- a Jack Russell Terrier named for my hero, Audrey Hepburn, is one of those dogs who thinks she's human (kind of like those liberals who think they are gods).

Imamyar Hasanov shook his head from side to side as he concentrated on the music he was playing. He was not the slightest bit angry -- in fact, he seemed to be passionately agreeing with something that was not being said.

Looking back over a century and examining the style trends is an interesting way to look at just how much a culture can change.

Crashing Canseco

By Alyson Brodsy and Russell Puntenney · Sunday, July 24,2005 9:16 p.m.

Jose Canseco on the new season of "Surreal Life"? The premise behind the VH1 reality show is placing seven once-popular celebrities in the same house, years removed from the height of their popularity, and watching the mayhem ensue. There have been exceptions to this formula, including models and "Real World" cast members (some of which appear so soon after their "Real World" experiences they might as well have moved from one house to the other), but all have been justified because they were never very popular to begin with. But Jose Canseco?
