Surely such contempt is validated and deepened now when he sees how unfailingly his tricksterism gets him through--a lechering Bugs Bunny who, at the end of this ghastly cartoon, flourishes a cigar instead of a carrot. (Henry Hyde, having taken over the Elmer Fudd role from Ken Starr, slumps off, looking perplexed.) I tell myself to get beyond this miasma--to think of the future. I will get over it...but not for a while. I try to think about forgiveness but am brought short by the knowledge that it requires repentance, and Clinton is congenitally unrepentant. Fish gotta...

...words, angrammizes it, does virtually everything but paper his walls with it and make a website for it. Penn looks most frighteningly and convincingly insane at this point, even compared to the histrionics of other scenes. The obsession the note holds for him reminds one of starving or parched cartoon characters for whom everything they lay eyes on turns into a rump roast or bottle to be uncorked...

Classical drama requires elegant balance. So, for that matter, does farce. One way or another, then, it makes sense that this story began and now ends with Monica. The cartoon versions of her that dominated the past year--child-victim, stalker-vamp--threatened to reappear on Saturday, when we got to meet her at last, on videotape. But for all the artful editing by both sides, there was no concealing that a flesh-and-blood Monica Lewinsky really does exist after all. She talks, she hides, she teases, she thinks fast and explains, grounded and credible and well practiced after...

...would appear, to Maxim. Whereas Details used to feature the stubbly likes of Stephen Dorff, the current number is graced by Elizabeth Hurley, touched up in such an unsubtle way that her breasts fairly leap off the page; it's as if they were eyeballs in a Tex Avery cartoon, ogling themselves. The accompanying profile opens with Hurley's complaining about having her chest photographically enlarged on the cover of Cosmo, which only goes to highlight the curious synchronicity between men's and women's magazines (but that's another discussion). Esquire has just come off a recent...

PARIS: France's legislature would never be caught dead discussing anything as trivial as an extramarital affair. Not when it could be debating the politics of that intrepid cartoon adventurer, Tintin. On Wednesday, the National Assembly marked the 70th anniversary of the character's birth by debating his political allegiances. "It's a little tongue-in-cheek," says TIME Paris correspondent Bruce Crumley. "The Gaullists are arguing why Tintin encapsulates the virtues of center-right nationalism, while the socialists claim him for the center-left by pointing to his compassion and altruism." And then of course the traditional chorus...
