Carter walked across the street in the autumn sunshine for lunch at Blair House. U.S. Ambassador Roy Atherton excused himself from one session and strolled to the Oval Office to fill in the President. Israel's Dayan and Weizman took the short journey to the White House, inhaling sparkling air and enjoying the fall coloring of the trees along Pennsylvania Avenue. Whether at the White House or Blair House, the coffeepots perked merrily...

Levi has a nice voice, but it doesn't help much; Nathan doesn't have to sing very often. His characterization seems somehow too neurotic, too much mama's boy and not quite enough swagger for the proprietor of a floating crap game. But he's funny. They're all funny, or at least...
