...decided to do both. Depending on who you are, this either inspires horror, laughter or pious reverence to the Great and All-Powerful Alanis. On the first day, she created Jagged Little Pill. On the second day, she created Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie. On the third day, the poor girl should have rested--"Still," her contribution to this soundtrack, is enough to make me you wish you had martyred yourself somewhere in between day two and three.

Historical continuities: Brooke Astor, now 97, remembers the day when, as a little girl, she shook the hand of Henry Adams. I recall the day when I was a child working for the summer as a Senate page and the aged Herbert Hoover visited the Senate chamber, not a celebrity so much as a curiosity. He looked like a Rotarian Santa Claus. After...
