It was either to prevent a crime from happening, or to get a law passed, or to prevent passage of a law, or something. All I remember was that much of the "action" (of which there was more than there should have been, given the manually-operated elevators and such) took place at The Capital.

I was amazed at how un-lame it was.I went wanting gossip. I wanted to see who got fat, who was gay, who I still hated, and who still hated me. For the most part, I was disappointed in that. Yes, some people gained weight, but no one was really huge. Some people lost weight, some looked exactly the same (apart from haircuts), but everyone was cool.

Honestly! How can a simple, ordinary wuss with nerd tendencies compete with someone who oozes so much manufactured "sincerity"?

Now, pop culture was never meant to be a lasting thing, but there have been some classics -- the entire library of The Beatles, Looney Tunes, a good chunk of early rocknroll. Hell, even most classical music was part of pop culture.
