...year tech job but then found out everyone's not doing as well as they thought," notes TIME military correspondent Mark Thompson. Thompson says the feelings that the military discourages entrepreneurship may also be a little misguided. "If you go out in the field there are 26-year-olds operating hundreds of millions of dollars' worth of equipment with hundreds of people under their command.

Aware that the top witness was about to spill her guts, Kendall and Seligman turned up at the federal courthouse, asking for an extension on the Starr subpoena. Protective of the 23 citizens who have already spent a half-year in a closed, dark room, Judge Norma Holloway Johnson refused the lawyers' request, saying if Clinton can take vacation, he can talk to the grand jury. And at the end of the day, there were widespread leaks throughout the city that Monica had offered Starr examples of hypothetical statements in which Clinton had tried to guide her comments...

This pathetic scene ended my three-week ordeal with UIS. The CD-ROM drive on my Dell Optiplex Gs* had stopped working more than a half-year before, weeks after I purchased it from the Technology Product Center.
