...effete Toddy, Ross signals half his jokes and is forced to deliver some of the show's worst groaners--in response to Victoria's "I don't want to be a man anymore", he replies "Neither do I." But Dana Lynn Mauro as Norma, King's moll, elicits huge laughs with her brassy style, all malapropisms and mangled French ("You know French?" "Oh sure, I just don't speak it"). Flashy and loud, MaBBuro's vim shows up what Tennille lacks, and she was deservedly a crowd favorite. The burly A.J. Irvin, playing the stiff-lipped Squash, King's bodyguard...
...lives with her husband, an executive with a news-feature syndicate, in a nine-room apartment on the West Side. "I don't get out that much, anyway. I cook. And talk on the phone. I have a huge phone network--50 or 60 calls a day. I have a wonderful life. That's part of the frustration people might have dealing with me. I want for nothing. I have a wonderful husband. I have wonderful kids. I have a wonderful life-style. I'd like to be 30 lbs. lighter, but what the hell. I mean, what are they...

And although the origin of the virus remains unknown, the fact that it was timed...

In this case, the initial conditions came courtesy of Mother Russia, whose meltdown Sterling covered for Wired back in 1993. "I was watching a huge 20th century superpower fall apart at the seams," he says. Extrapolating from Moscow to the U.S. was a simple matter of wondering, like any good science-fiction writer, What...
...this is more than just a house Christopher Reeve could use. The top floor is a concrete box that hangs implausibly over the column-free middle floor, as if two halves of an Eskimo Pie were held apart by nothing. The box is supported by a huge spiral-stair-filled column outside and anchored on one side by a vestigial-looking tendon that plunges into the ground. On the middle story, floor-to-ceiling windows slide away on hidden tracks to make the room disappear almost entirely. If that's not complex enough, there's a three-story-high bookcase...
