With his baby-bottom complexion and piano-player hands, Weil is unlikely to find his advice accepted by those of us who put up drywall, frame houses, work with horses and repair trucks and cars. By age 60, we are so beaten up that at the end of the day, eating biscuits and gravy is like consuming the elixir of the gods. BILL CROOKHAM Caldwell, Idaho...
Howard Dean's campaign blog, run by Mathew Gross, may be the perfect example of both the potential and the pitfalls of high-profile blogging.

The truculent Soviet dictator spent most of his life claiming to be politically infallible, and his proteges in North Korea are just as bloody-minded. Over the decades since their invasion of the South was beaten back, the North Koreans have sent down waves of assassins and saboteurs, seized warships and cargo vessels at sea, blown up at least one civilian airliner, hacked U.S. truce guards to death with axes and committed other barbarities without the slightest sign of self-doubt.
