...rumors that the DNA tests on the dress would prove his undoing, the growing consensus that he was walking into a perjury trap, led outsiders to assert that he would soon have no choice but to confess all--and insiders to suspect essentially the opposite: that he would admit not a single thing, deny any romance, dismiss Lewinsky as a fantasizing stalker and even consider refusing to turn over a blood sample that could match his DNA to the stain on the dress. Fight it out, all the way, without looking back...
Alright, so I lied. I admit it. But, believe me, you would have done the same in my position. You don't think so? As "The Golden Girls'" Sophia used to say, picture this: suburban New York, July 1998. A lonely girl sits in her house perusing the Princeton alumni directory for her boss. She makes a list, noting the names of the men. The class of 1983 seems to her a microcosm of successful Americans--Vice President of this company, CEO of that firm. That's now.

And try as he might to ignore it, Jackson had to admit that the statute still stands...
...former Justice Department enforcer turned Microsoft legal adviser. The software billionaire was due to be deposed by the DOJ Wednesday at his Redmond campus, but that's likely to be delayed until all the logistics can be ironed out. And boy, are there ever logistics -- how many people to admit and the thorny issue of ordering everyone out when Gates starts talking about company secrets. As Rule complains, "any level-headed person in the DOJ should see the need to protect confidentiality." Given that Jackson ruled that Microsoft should let the public in "to the extent space is reasonably available...
