...there is more. When Ellis declared Florida for his cousin, he wasn't just following ABC, CBS and the rest. His call was the first, and appeared to precipitate a television-wide announcement: Bush had won the election. Not that Fox anchor Brit Hume was totally confident as he projected a Bush presidency at around 2:20 a.m. "I must tell you, everybody, after all this, all night long, we put Bush at 271, Gore at 243. I feel a little bit apprehensive about the whole thing. I have no reason to doubt our decision desk, but there...

...many jolly musicals in this dour Broadway age, but this fall there are two. Seussical is joined by The Full Monty, based on the hit Brit film about blue-collar guys who try to make a few bob as strippers. David Yazbek (from TV) and playwright Terrence McNally wrote the show.
