Richardson "just" maintains his physique ("My bones and joints are 85, so I try to use common sense," he says) with 20 min. of swimming, some weight training, stretching and 200 ab crunches.

I am beginning to think there's truth in the theory that bypass surgery damages the memory. Mine was once photographic. Now I have to work harder sometimes to fetch a name. The other day, for some reason...
...have seen no evidence of Cheney's being depressed or acting screwy or forgetting things. He seems the perfect Duke of Kent, who was King Lear's bluff, loyal, sane liege man and exec. I am not 100% about my own sanity. I certainly have had bouts of the bypass depression...
