...bash, which concluded last week, the big do was a Hong Kong film party at the Majestic Hotel. Jackie Chan, Samo Hung, Jet Li, they were all there, and everyone was invited. Except Your Intrepid Reporter - even after begging. So YIR and his comely escort stood in the hotel driveway, watching thousands of lucky people pressed against one another in a subway-rush-hour crush. The only people allowed to join the party were Hong Kong celebrities arriving in limos and whisked into another entrance. Then YIR's escort spotted a familiar face, that of director Peter Chan, inside...
...killer had only one direction to go when he carried Lucie's body parts from his apartment. A driveway turns out to the right of the front door; the marina is straight ahead. To the left there is a small parking lot, then a narrow path leading across stones and cement pilings to the tiny beach, which is maybe one-quarter the area of a tennis court.

I heard he was going to go to school and start shooting people. I had the smallest little details. I asked...
...road in their exuberantly suicidal springtime way, racing to see if they can manage to get under the wheels. Nature on the move. Chipmunks are back in business. Our cats play Sylvester with the bluebirds. Deer, exhausted by deep snow and winter, have taken to using the plowed driveway as a thoroughfare: Yesterday I saw 20 of them file leisurely down the drive from the field, where they browse, morning and evening, on what bare patches they can find. A church social of wild turkeys congregates in the field as well - absorbed, nonchalant and pretty sure, after this winter, that...
