...What is emerging is a political chess game: Already, some in the GOP, no doubt concerned at the specter of Clinton continuing to dominate the Washington landscape, are urging Bush to consider a pardon. "I would pardon [Clinton]," Republican senator Orrin Hatch told Fox News Sunday. "I think it's time to put this to bed." And while the senator's interest in a pardon is likely based in political self-interest - how better, after all, to finally clear Clinton from the national radar - his message is not easily ignored. (Hatch to Ray: The GOP has lost its bloodlust...
Lucky thing for Richard Hatch that Survivor didn't cast Japanese teens. In Battle Royale, a film released in December, youthful miscreants are dropped on a deserted island. Each is given a different weapon--assault rifle, machete, crossbow--and ordered to kill until only one is left standing. Bloodshed--lots of it--ensues. Education Minister NOBUTAKA MACHIMURA had urged the filmmakers to tone down the brutality, while members of parliament sought to ban the film. The bluster led to long lines outside theaters two days before its premiere. As Japan has seen a rash of violent youth crimes recently...

Last night I dreamed of Marisleysis. She, Uncle Lazaro and the two grandmothers were on that island watching Richard Hatch take his clothes off. Regis dropped by to perform the wedding ceremony for Darva Conger and Vladimir Putin (I must say, they made a stunning couple). Then we all went down to the N.R.A.-theme restaurant on Broadway, where everyone gave Charlton Heston a cold, dead hand. Suddenly Barbra Streisand got up onstage and yelled, "Do you know what it is to have to walk around in high heels and sing 35 songs a night, to have to diet...
...seas may have existed on Mars. The Pope visited the Western Wall in Israel. Great people left the world--Alec Guinness, John Gielgud, Charles Schulz. Memory-enhancing drugs were in production, so that one day, 10 years from now, we'll be able to recall the name Richard Hatch. The President went to Vietnam. Stuff like that...
