That's a conversation I don't mind having on a regular Saturday night, but I'm hoping for something more on my 60th birthday--dinner in Paris, a play in London, an island getaway in Maine. But when you're Bob Dole, trailing in your race for President, even your wife's birthday has to give way to politics.

Atlantis will depart Mir on Thursday, leaving astronaut Shannon Lucid for her five- month stay...
...acquire wealth, not just flaunt it. In war it may still be the victors who get the spoils. In presidential politics, losing pays better. Whoever wins in November can look forward to a $200,000 annual salary, a White House ringed with tank barriers and a Camp David getaway that's been described as "a medium-quality boys' camp without the horses." The also-rans are in the fast lane to Candy Land...
