Their song was majestic. Mesmerizing. I loved to lie spread-eagled in the grass beneath the speckled maples, listening to their hypnotic hum, feeling the buzz electrify my freckled skin, igniting the fuzzy blonde hairs on my lanky arms.It was May 2038 and the pharaoh-cicadas were sprouting all across the Eastern United States for the first time in seventeen years. It was astounding to think that these tomato-eyed, jewel-winged, dopey-flying, outspoken little critters were older than me. For all but the last six weeks of their lives, they tunneled underground as tiny nymphs, feeding on root sap. Then, suddenly, in the spring of their seventeenth year, when the soil-temperature reached sixty-four degrees, they surfaced all at once, by the millions, to sing, mate and die, in rapid succession. It was wonderfully-tragic in a sort of Shakespearean way, how suddenly their lives blossomed then ceased. They spent nearly two decades waiting in the dark, not only silent and blind but virtually alone, for a mere blink of glory at the end--for a single season in the sun, spreading their orange-laced wings, singing louder than lawnmowers, mating monogamously, laying eggs in the treetops? then, dropping dead, falling to the bases of the same saplings that provided their sustenance, giving their bodies back to the soil from which they emerged, fertilizing their home-base for the next generation. How beautifully heartbreaking it was, yet poignant with purpose. Cicadas never had to wonder what their goals were--it was wired in their instincts. Cicadas didn't have to worry about dating and breaking up repeatedly, until your heart was nothing but bleeding carnage in the dirt. Their paths were simple, clear, obvious. They were guaranteed to find their soulmate in a timely fashion, without the painful rigmarole that plagued my high-school. Courting was straightforward for them: males sang their one-hundred-decibel chorus, interested females would flick their wings in consent, and that was that--they were a couple. While some cicadas mated more than once, roughly ninety percent stayed loyal to their one true love. It was a real-live Hallmark movie.It was this shy, sixteen-year-old, eleventh-grade musician's dream.

Considers how ancient Greek comedy offers a model for present-day politics. With Democratic Swarms, Page duBois revisits the role of Greek comedy in ancient politics, considering how it has been overlooked as a political medium by modern theorists and critics. Moving beyond the popular readings of ancient Greece through the lens of tragedy, she calls for a revitalized look at Greek comedy. Rather than revisiting the sufferings of Oedipus and his family or tragedy’s relationship to questions of sovereignty, this book calls for comedy—its laughter, its free speech, its wild swarming animal choruses, and its rebellious women—to inform another model of democracy. Ancient comedy has been underplayed in the study of Greek drama. Yet, with the irrepressible energy of the comic swarm, it provides a unique perspective on everyday life, gender and sexuality, and the utopian politics of the classical period of Athenian democracy. Using the concepts of swarm intelligence and nomadic theory, duBois augments tragic thought with the resistant, utopian, libidinous, and often joyous communal legacy of comedy, and she connects the lively anti-authoritarianism of the ancient comic chorus with the social justice movements of today.

No one is surprised when Amy risks her life to save Nickie, nor when she takes the female golden into her home. The bond between Amy and Nickie is immediate and uncanny. Even her two other goldens, Fred and Ethel, recognize Nickie as special, a natural alpha. But the instant joy Nickie brings is shadowed by a series of eerie incidents. An ominous stranger. A mysterious home invasion. And the unmistakable sense that someone is watching Amy’ s every move and that, whoever it is, he’s not alone.

A juke box is a bright, colorful modern era troubadour with a repertoire of popular songs. You select (and insert coins) to hear a ballad, a love song, a cautionary tale, a humorous, or sad, or happy song. You get tears or smiles or both at the same time. Sometimes you get a gift you weren't expecting. But always your heart is pierced once again and the nickel dream is over too soon. I hope that you like the songs in this Juke Box.
