...Israelis may be doing this to send a message to more senior Fatah leaders such as Marwan Bargouti and Hussein Sheikh, saying 'We know where you live.' They're hoping to frighten those guys off and make them think twice about the consequences of attacks on Israelis, regardless of what they're saying I public. But whether this will actually make them think twice remains to be seen. Bargouti's office in Ramallah was previously rocketed when he wasn't there. Now they've got one of his guys, and they're saying 'It could have been you.' But there...
...funny thing about Steve Martin's first work of extended fiction, Shopgirl, is that it's not funny. At least not the laugh-out-loud-and-frighten-the-horses funny of Martin's early stand-up comedy, or of his performance as the man-woman in All of Me, or the humor pieces in his collection Pure Drivel.

...excited when there's actually something to see. (Steve Jobs called us many, many times.) The latest Pixar production is Monsters, Inc., due out on Thanksgiving 2001, starring BILLY CRYSTAL and JOHN GOODMAN--Crystal is the cyclops-pea, Goodman the yeti--as corporate monsters whose job it is to frighten kiddies. This being animation, they're also charged with being not so scary as to lose the stuffed-animal concession. Crystal and Goodman have the star power, but director Peter Docter says the real find is Mary Gibbs, 3, who happens to be the daughter of a Pixar employee...
