...very complex, it's very hard to tell who's capable of what. One woman might be screaming "I'm going to kill my children," and she'd be the most stable of the bunch because she's actually venting. And then the quiet one who keeps things bottled up will commit some terrible crime. After someone does something like this, it's very standard to hear friends and neighbors of the accused say, "Oh, she was such a quiet person. I can't believe she did this."

...Ford's peril is in many ways greater. They are trying to remake themselves as a consumer-sensitive company that listens to consumers and environmentalists. They want to come across as bunch of nice guys - and now this inquiry has severely hurt their credibility. Sales of the 2002 Explorer, which is a completely redesigned vehicle, have been very slow.

Indignation over the designated-hitter rule abides, but baseball traditionalists are a noticeably happier bunch these days.

Most of the credit is being given to better enforcement of the strike zone, but after years of looking like deer caught in Ted Nugent's backyard, pitchers are displaying a potent new weapon. "I call it the pitch of the new millennium," says ESPN baseball analyst Harold Reynolds, a former All-Star second baseman. The increasingly popular pitch is just a modified fast ball, but by putting...

...well as I would have if I hadn't gone in for a good deal of underage drinking. More recently, I remember being the parent of a 19-year-old and worrying about her underage drinking.
