his week's News section is devoted to the three P's: Privacy,
Psychics and Philanthropy. What? Never heard of them? Come on,
everybody's heard of the three P's!
In the Privacy department, read this story to find out why thanks
to the advent of the information age, privacy is quickly going
out of style. If you're more Psychic-minded, focus your mental
energies on this article about a psychic who helped a family locate
a killer. Yeah, I didn't believe it either. Then there's the third
P, Philanthropy. This story profiles a group of rich people
who have come to realize philanthropy's just not enough. They
want to change the system that makes philanthropy necessary.
What's that? Still confused? Ohhh, you must have thought I meant
the other three P's: Past-one's-prime, Persistence, and
"Potty." Well, duh on my part. Let's see what we've
got in those departments.
Past-his-prime isn't exactly how I'd describe Michael Ventura:
he's more of a seasoned sage, or perhaps an Old One, and his "Letters
@ 3AM" column remains as insightful as ever. I'm not so sure
what to make of Walter Jowers, though. The dog discussed in Jowers's
latest "Helter Shelter" column may be the very embodiment
of Persistence, but don't expect this Pointer's tale to have a
point. As for the last P -- the "Potty" P -- well, you'll
just have to sit back, heat up a cup of tea, and read it for yourself,
'cause I ain't giving any hints.
