...reporter asks to accompany him on his campaign trip, it takes Khatami 10 seconds to smile and say, "Sure, come along." The look is different too: in contrast with the drab gowns worn by the mullahs in the Majlis, Khatami, with his Italian jacket, dark turtleneck and trim gray beard, would look at home in an Armani...
...cover of Time. Leo on the cover of Rolling Stone. Leo on the cover of Talk. My God! This boy's publicist deserves a raise. And several magazine editors deserve to be sacked. Isn't there a war in Bosnia? (And no, Leo, growing whiskers and a stubbly beard after like four months of trying doesn't mean we think you've made it through puberty.)... An intrepid student director dropped me an e-mail last week offering to take charge of my proposed music video thesis. I can't star in the thing since we all know that Indians...
...wife Queen Rania a jolt by dressing up, carefully adjusting his disguise in the mirror, before heading to work in the morning. Instead of a business suit or perhaps his military uniform, he's wearing jeans, an old army jacket and--get this--an Afro wig, a bushy brown beard and some makeup to darken his eyebrows.

Act I's storytellers wear all white, and after the fall of man, Eve and Adam don fur vests. Yet in Act II, we find Noah and his children wearing twentieth century rain ponchos. The play is an incomplete anachronism...
...Downey works as a professional Santa in December and as a Jerry Garcia impersonator the rest of the time (he has a full, tuggable beard). Downey told me that every good professional Santa deals with skeptics by deflection, and I think that's a good idea at home too. When your child asks you pointed questions, ask him what he thinks about the holiday, what he thinks it's really about, and what he likes most about it. If your child presses you on specifics--"How come you and Santa have the same wrapping paper?" is one of my favorites...
