...ethics panel has other fish to fry. Members reportedly have sent Sen. Alan Simpson (R-Wy.), one of Packwood's chief defenders, a letter asking how he managed to obtain the statements by two witnesses in its Packwood investigation that he discussed last Thursday on ABC-TV's "Nightline." (One statement said a woman who accused Packwood of sexual misconduct had herself made advances on him.) Simpson, who has accused Packwood critics of leaking unfavorable material, told the Associated Press today that he was simply circulating the "other side" of the story...

The Iraqi military has stockpiled all the tires it needs...
...gossip columnists. Although most practitioners are too competitive to mention one another, they all take frequent note of Claudia Cohen, who moved from "Page Six" at the Post to the I, Claudia column at the Daily News to her current bully pulpit, Live with Regis and Kathie Lee on ABC-TV. Along the way she vaulted into the ranks of privilege by marrying an A-list name, corporate raider Ron Perelman...
