...endearing. Just don't ask her if she or he knows X, Y or Z famous movie stars. Brenda on "90210" left the University of Minnesota just for that reason; imagine how a Harvard student would react. Don't stress, and if your star does happen to know Richard Gere, tell him Norma sends her love...

Making time during the first 125 days for Billy Crystal, Barbra Streisand, Sharon Stone (twice), Richard Gere, Richard Dreyfuss, Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward, Quincy Jones, Sinbad, Christopher Reeve, John Ritter, Sam Waterston, Hammer, Lindsay Wagner and Judy Collins is a remarkable achievement. When Hillary Rodham Clinton, after seeing Liza Minnelli sing on TV, calls and asks her to stay overnight, it looks frivolous, a little unseemly...
