Attention all Theatre and Visual Arts lovers: where are you?! Every week we run articles about painters, playwrights and other artists in these pages, and yet the Arts & Leisure section of Weekly Wire's BBS remains neglected. Come talk to us! Share your love of art; it might rub off on somebody who needs it.

As usual, this week's section caters to both highbrow and lowbrow tastes, providing chat fodder no matter what your brow's altitude might be. On the visual arts side of things, we've got reviews of exhibits featuring not just Tom Lee Spark and other fine American artsts, but also the work of dozens of Uruguay's women painters, who continue to express horror over the torturous actions of their country's former military dictatorship.

In the theatrical realm, the planets aligned this week to bring us three reviews of plays that revolve around women. The Waiting Room studies how common conceptions of beauty can affect female self-image, while Talking With provides revelatory dialogues between women from a variety of backgrounds. Also: read how an updated version of Shakespeare's Taming of the Shrew fails to apply to modern times.

Okay, now for the offbeat stuff. If you think you're the ultimate wild man, think again: this interview with Jim Fowler, formerly of Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom, proves he's the only one deserving that title. It also answers a question that's been burning in my mind for some time: What does Fowler think of the FOX-TV show When Animals Attack? Another burning question concerns Kentucky Fried Chicken's new Tornado sandwiches. Are they edible? Find out here. And have you ever missed all those simple-but-addictive video games from the early-'80s? Me too. This article's just the thing to cure those I Hate Mortal Kombat blues.

Quite a selection, I know. Now get in that Talk Back BBS and say something!
