...Climb higher and hang those lovely boobs of yours through the bars." The girl followed instructions, hung on precariously and was rewarded by a blown kiss from "the maestro," as he is known to his adoring veteran crew. Fellini is a masterly politician, roaming the crowded sound stage to flirt shamelessly with the women and backslap the men. Says he: "I am the captain of a glorious ocean liner. My crew and I work together to make a big joke of the crossing...

...purported New York Times clippings, to a threatening letter Alan writes President Kennedy. The feeling emerges from it all that Sokolov is playing myriad obscure jokes throughout, that some second satiric meaning lurks behind everything. Is the Xixi language full of esoteric puns? Why are the words for flirt and pregnant almost exactly the same? Is there any meaning at all to the patently nonsensical Xixi legends? Is the Xixi village--divided east-west by a river, north-south by an imaginary line--supposed to be an allegorical version of the United States? What exactly does Sokolov mean by ending...

HOLE 10: 485 yds., par four (average score: 4.34). This is one of the holes that make Augusta National a long-driver's course. You've got to flirt with the trees on the left, but gently.

The ideal tee shot is a low, running draw that goes slightly left of center in order to catch a steep slope tilting toward the green, leaving you a two-or three-iron home. If you fade your drive to the right, you've got an impossible downhill-sidehill shot...

...EGYPTIAN MOTIVES. I think they consider only two options in dealing with Israel: 1) military or 2) to flirt with the U.S. to achieve the same ends [Israeli withdrawal without Egyptian political concessions]. As long as their basic philosophy is that these are the two options open to them-and they don't have to deal directly with the Israelis to reach a compromise-I doubt if we will really move toward peace...

...women workers outdoes the men's team, they shout triumphantly "Viva las mujeres!" But it is also assumed that after a hard day's fighting in the jungle the women will do the cooking. Tania's no-nonsense personality is in obvious contrast to the role of the bourgeois flirt that she assumes as a spy, but when she wants to show her admiration for Che, she bakes him a cake. There are a few slightly barbed jests directed against sexism, but no one presses the issue because to do so might interfere with the revolution...
