But aside from concerns that she might damage her reconstructed nose, Jones was only too willing to step in after Amy Fisher's parole officer forbade her to participate in the bout against TONYA HARDING.

In a prime-time special to air March 13, Long Island Lolita AMY FISHER, above, will duke it out with former Olympic skater TONYA HARDING. It's hard to know whom to put your money on in this fight.

More sedate infants may prefer Barney's Move 'n Groove Dance Mat from Fisher-Price ($30, 1 1/2 years and older, available in July).

There's also a keyboard at one end so kids can jam with the tune by stepping on the keys (think of the Chopsticks scene in Big).
