    [Movie should die too
“Jason Goes To
Hell: The Final
Friday”
Yes, tftey aid it again.
Another “Friday the 13 th” flick
has opened nationwide, and hope
fully, the filmmakers will stick by
the title and make sure that “Jason
Goes To Hell: The Final Friday”
will really be the last “Friday the
13th” film ever made.
“Friday the 13th” will hold the
record for the most sequels ever,
with nine.
At the beginning of the newest
Friday, Jason Voorhees is lured
into an ambush of large men, and
gets blown to pieces.
During the examination the cor
oner finds out exactly why Jason
has held up so well after years of
being shot, stabbed and the like.
Jason’s eternal cinematic life
stems from his heart, and the mys
terious black liquid inside of it. If
that liquid makes its way inside
another person, that person is taken
over by Jason.
Here we go again.
Evidently, the coroner got the
munchies while working, and with
no Cheetos handy, he decided to
chomp down on Jason’s heart like
a McRib. Surprise! The coroner
becomes possessed.
>
However, Jason isn’t satisfied
with hopping from body to body.
He wants to be reborn, and to do
that he needs a female member of
his family.
Acting below standards of any
known society, leaps of logic far
beyond the reach known to mortal
beings, and a lack of originality in
acts of gruesome death all combine
to destroy the film.
The movie’s only bright spot is
the very last scene, which will be
hilarious to horror film buffs ev
erywhere.
That last scene might make the
movie worth a visit to the discount
house or the video store, but other
than that, “Jason Goes To Hell”
just isn’t worth the trip.

“We have some new items that are
Cajun,” he said. “So we thought ‘jazz
and Cajun go together.’”
Stanley said the restaurant was fea
turing Cajun chicken, shrimp, and
fish dishes. The food played a large
role in attracting customers, as The
Cafe is the only local restaurant fea
turing jazz music.
“That’s what’s going to be our
catch,” she said. “It’s the food.”
Sampson said last Friday’s perfor
mance, as well as tonight’s, featured
local artist Tom Larson, but other
artists may be featured in the future.
“We’ve already had another indi
vidual contact us," he said.
Sampson said there was no cover
charge for the show, and that dinners
ranged from $9.50 to $16.50. The
average bill per person averages about
$10, he said.
Performances run from 6:00 to 9:00,
but dinner is served beginning at 5

But she doesn’t see herself in any
particular box, especially musically.
Some days she feels like a folk singer;
other days she doesn’t know quite
where she fits in.
DiFranco said she liked how folk
music is self-corporate. On the nega
tive side, it’s kina of a“retro” descrip
tion, she said.
Her songs are anything but retro.
“I’m kind of the freak of the folk
scene,’’ she said.
There is no agenda when she sits
down to work on her music, she said.
Instead, she just writes about her life
and what concerns her.
There s so much that we (as a
people) don’t talk about, and I just
don’t get it,” she said.
A bit of an anarchist at heart,
DiFranco said she has never really
been that extreme.
The ideas this country was found
ed on—the freedoms and the “liberty
and justice for all” — are good ones,
she said. But like most good ideas, the
ideas are often used to the opposite
result.
DiFranco said she felt the first step
in changing the perversion of good
ideas and in promoting positive social
change is people speaking out.
“History is about one kind of peo
ple — Caucasian males. In order for
others to insert themselves into histo
ry, assertions must be made,” she
said.
People must tell their own stories if
they want to be heard, she said.
“I just intend to tell my own own
story.”
Although some consider her a po
litical activist, DiFranco said she
didn’t separate her politics from ev
erything else.
“I think everything we do as peo
ple is political — what we eat, etc. I
think that comes through in my songs.”
DiFranco’s background is as inter
esting and varied as her opinions. She
said she started playing acoustic gui
tar and singing professionally when
she was 9 years old, accompanying “a
wayward, delinquent folk singer.”
She left home at the age of 15, but
finished high school before she moved
to New York City when she was 18.
She put out her first tape shortly
afterward, borrowing money to get it
released. Good word-of-mouth fol
lowed, and things began to change for
her, DiFranco said.
Gigs, letters and touring followed.
Because she started so long ago,
her musical influences have been nu
merous, with many poets among them.
Currently she is preparing to re
lease “Like I Said,” a re-mix of previ
ously recorded material.
DiFranco said she released her
music on her own label through her
own production company, Righteous
Records.
“It’s not the most glamourous way
to go, but I get work and slowly people
hear my music,” she said.
DiFranco said she would encour
age new musicians to do their own
production because corporate music
divides people into marketing bases.
“It’s about money before it’s about
music,” she said. “It’s exploitive of
the artist and everyone else.”
Although DiFranco normally plays
alone, she’ll be accompanied Satur
day night by a percussionist/drummer
Andy Stochanski. Her show begins at
7 p.m. in the EastUnion’sGreat Plains
Room.

Again this year UNL and GM-Southwest are working
together to provide a health care program to help off-set
the high cost of medical care. Your University Health
Center is working with the Student Insurance earner to
offer such a plan. This program is open to both graduate
and under-graduate students.
There are some changes this year in the procedure for
enrollment that will be affecting International Students.
Immigration laws state that International Students must
be financially responsible to reside in this country. The
UNL policy requires mandatory insurance for Interna
tional Students. These students will be required to show
proof of private insurance or will be billed automatically
on their tuition statement for Student Insurance.
As in the past, all students will be required to seek
initial treatment at the University Health Center whenever
possible. To effectively utilize this policy, your Health
Center fees must be paid as well as your insurance premi
ums.

program in order for dependents to be enrolled. Applica
