...because this is a family magazine and because the English language is not equipped for the task. It was supposed to be a disembodied part of a woman, but it was more like part of a really expensive Halloween outfit to which someone had haphazardly taped a lock of Dweezil Zappa's hair. It felt like wet latex, smelled like wet latex and looked like something Sigmund Freud might have used to make a very twisted point. I figured it was designed for men without hands...
...RollerJam, a venue for voluptuous women in Lycra to go at one another on Rollerblades. Dancing women without Rollerblades--or much clothing--are the main attraction on Happy Hour, a relatively innocuous, if boring, hourlong USA variety show that made its debut in April, with Frank Zappa's sons Dweezil and Ahmet as its hosts...

And last weekend a gross of glitterati -- Diana Ross, Elton John, Sigourney Weaver -- joined world leaders...
...with an idea, Pratt hashes it out with her equally young staff, and then, it often seems, simply publishes the text of the discussion. "It was a typical Wednesday morning meeting," begins a feature on flirting. "Elizabeth and Catherine were having their usual argument over who's better looking, Dweezil Zappa or Sting . . . And Jane had that I've-got-a-brilliant-idea look on her face. 'Why don't we do a story on how we flirt...
