My Hustler is a bizarre film about a

were hallucinating on LSD, the
star claims to have no idea what it
was about. Blow Job is a 30 minute
close up of someone's face while
he gets his lollipop licked; take
your date to this one.
Surprisingly, Leonard Maltin
doesn't mention this in his film
guide.

'FCC' is a
dirty word
Radio stations across the
United States and in Ann
Arbor are running into stricter
regulations as the FCC
continues to arbitrarily define
standards for 'decent'
broadcasting. Does this affect
what you hear? You bet -
and D.J.s are feeling the bite
at the microphone as radio
freedom becomes more and
more threatened.
