...Fat chance. In New Zealand last week there was practically nothing but comment. Naomi complained in a newspaper interview that her husband had developed a "fantasy thing" for his 37-year-old speechwriter, Margaret Pope. Then David's 80-year-old mother Phoebe piped up, pronouncing herself "so angry I could behead him with my crutch." For his part, Lange declared that he planned to live with Pope and joked of his mum's dismay that she was "writing a soap opera called Lays of Our Dave...
Mitchell and House Speaker Tom Foley have vowed to pass a "clean" budget bill, unadorned by amendments, before Congress adjourns around Thanksgiving.

A movie career, meanwhile, has sprouted almost effortlessly. Last year Hall co-starred with his best pal Eddie Murphy in Coming to America...
...hopes with taste and grace. We probably could not change them if we wanted to. It is worth noting that each of the four former Presidents has reverted to form with a vengeance. Reagan is back on the mashed-potato circuit (raised to a world-class level), taking fat fees for propounding his doctrine of hope and reward. Carter, who always was a better missionary than a President, now has the stature and the means to tread the globe's troubled pathways relentlessly urging reform and righteousness...
