...clear that Widdicombe’s wit has already won over her friends. “She makes jokes that you can repeat to 20 different people out of context and everybody will still laugh,” says Widdicombe’s blockmate, Alexa H. Hirschfeld ’06. “She’s that original, and it just shows what a genuinely witty person she is.” Friends on staff with Widdicombe at the Lampoon say she is “both terrifying and exhilarating” in her writing style and personality...
DIED. ABE HIRSCHFELD, 85, oddball real estate tycoon and publicity hound, who offered $1 million to Paula Jones to settle her sexual harassment suit against President Bill Clinton in 1998; in New York City.

Westfeldt has the requisite innocent allure, and Gregg Edelman, as Ruth's eventual beau, is a cutie with oodles of charm. From the rich supporting cast, I choose Ken Barnett (who plays a tour guide, a magazine staffer, a cop and several other roles) as my star of the future; he's got lots of character personality and the ingratiating comic...
