Pedantic Man says tattoos fade, smear;
nudists tend to be happy, well-adjusted
Dear Pedantic Fellow,
1 thought you were dead.
I’m thinking of getting a tattoo.
Can you tell me if it’s true it will
fade in the sun? Also, a related
question, does hair grow back thicker
when you shave it? I have to shave
the place I’m getting the tattoo and
I’m not sure I want any more in that
place.
Sincerely,
A Fan
Dear Fan,
Yes, a tattoo will fade in the
sun. One way to prevent this is to
wear industrial strength sun block
over the critical area. Another is to
put the tattoo, cr, where the sun
doesn’t shine.
But that s not the worst ol it. A
tattoo will fade anyway, given time.
Occasional touch-ups will only
prevent part of the problem as an
aging tattoo is also likely to “bleed.”
That is, the ink will spread out,
blurring the tattoo.
You can think of this as part of
the charm of tattoos; the older tat
too takes on a comfortable, worn
look. Or you can have new tattoo
work done over the old one and try
to incorporate the bleed into the
design.
Be aware, too, that as your skin
ages it’s likely to lose its elasticity
and your tattoo will lose its shape!
Possibly the best solution is to
wail until you’re old and ready to
die. Then the tattoo will look great
at your wake.
As for hair (I don’t know how
many limes I’ve been asked this
one) the answer is no. The myth
that shaving produces thicker, darker
or otherwise greater quantities of
hair was probably begun by some
13-year-old boy who — shaving
for the first time — found his bud
ding whiskers growing in more
plentifully. No doubt he thought
he’d found the secret to a preco
cious masculinity.
Poor sap. He was maturing all
the time and didn’t know it. In the
weeks it took for him to grow his
pitiful crop back he would no doubt
have added the new bristles any
way — bad news for pre-teen goatee
candidates perhaps, but good news
for you. You won’t grow any extra
hair. I
Alive and kicking,
Pcdanlic Man*
Pedant,
My boyfriend never wears any
clothes at home. So far that’s been
hard enough to deal with, but he
says he docsn’tcilher in the winter.
Just turns the heat up and prances
around. Also he leaves the win
dows open where people can sec.
And he likes to have the light on
when we make love.
Pcdanlic Man, you’re the only
one he listens to! Make him slop.
You Know Who
Yes, I know who, and let me tell
my readers they should be so lucky.
If the guy you’re talking about
is not too hard on the eyes (and you
have to admit he isn’t) then why do
you care what he docs in his ulili
lies-paid apartment?
It’s true that nudists arc an odd
lot, but not in the way you probably
think.
Your average confirmed nudist
is older than 30, has a career and
kids.
Your average nudist is gener
ally healthier and more emotion
ally adjusted than your average
non-nudist. (Quick, what’s a word
for non-nudist?)
Your boyfriend is less likely
than you are to catch cold.
There’s even some evidence that
he’s less likely to be gored by an
enraged bull, should one ever break
into the apartment.
It’s only natural that he should
want the windows open. Part of the
point of nudity is to allow the skin
to breathe. Benjamin Franklin took
regular “air baths” in the buff and
he lived to a potent old age by all
accounts.
As to making love with the lights
on, well we all have our crosses to
bear; he doesn’t seem to mind,
though.
Now to any other readers of
these turbid lines, let me warn you.
Taking off you clothes is not nec
essarily going to give you all these
great characteristics.
They’re only statistics, after all.
You’re just as likely to be your
same, old, crotchety self after you
strip — only naked.
If you like Pedantic Man, and want
to see more of him, (no nudist
jokes, please) why don’t you ever
invite him to any parties? He’salso
available for private pedantry.

Futuristic movie plunges viewers into world
brimming over with stunning imagery, acting
“Until The End Of
The World”
By Gerry Beltz
Staff Reporter
Stunning visuals, powerful acting
and a superb soundtrack help “Until
the End of the World” (Mary Ricpma
Ross Film Theater, 12thandR streets)
rise to the occasion.
Even with a running time of close
to three hours, the visual and intellec
tual stimulation of the movie makes
the time fly by.
Set in 1999, the movie gives the
audience a grim first look at the fu
ture with the announcement that a
nuclear satellite has lost control and
is liable to crash almost anywhere.
However, in the middle of all the
end-of-thc-world chaos, a young
woman named Claire (Solvcig Dom
martin) helps a pair of bank robbers
transport their loot to Paris in ex
change for a one-third cut.
Along the way, she picks up the
mysterious Sam Farber (William Hurt),
a charismatic American on the run
from bounty hunters who has a taste
for music created by pygmy children
in Cameroon.
After Sam makes off with a large
portion of the money, Claire tells her
lover and close friend Gene (Sam
Neill) that she is going to pursue Sam.
The chase goes from country to
country, city to city, including Paris,
Lisbon and Tokyo, and finally culmi
nates in the deep Australian outback.
Here, a totally different story line
begins, involving a camera that al
lows the blind to see, invented by
Sam’s father (Max Von Sydow) for
Sam’s mother (Jeanne Moreau).
The first half of the film depends
heavily on the futuristic concepts of
director Wim Wenders, as well as
some terrific work from Hurt and
Dommartin. Hurt’s sad, innocent eyes
were just what this character required,
and Wenders used him wonderfully.
The ideas of the future arc terrific
as well, mixing in some humor. High
resolution computer animation, mixed
with a bounty hunter’s tracking pro
grams, provide some amusing and
entertaining moments.
The secondary story line involv
ing the camera is where everything
begins to come together into one bizarre
montage of incredible imagery. The
photos for the blind (and after a slight
adjustment, a dream recorder) bring
concepts and ideas to the audience
that arc truly stunning.
The soundtrack is equally impres
sive and powerful, with contributions
from Dcpcchc Mode, U2 and Talking
Heads — just to name a few.
Granted, the movie docs run a bit
long, but it is well worth it.
“Until The End Of The World”
opens today and runs through August
23, then returns on August 27 and
runs through August 30, with screen
ings each day at S and 8 p.m.
Admission prices are $5 for adults,
S4 for UNL students, and S3 for sen
ior citizens, children and members of
the Friends of the Mary Riepma Ross
Film Theater.
UNL’s School of Music seeking aspiring singers for concert

coln School of Music is looking for
singers to participate in the UNL
Oratorio Chorus.
Rehearsals to prepare for the Nov.

the piece was translated from a Prudcn

cherishing," by Helen Waddell
The concert will be under the di
rection of James F. Hcjduk.

may be purchased at campus book
