Crisp sunshine and a field hockey game, a jog over to Ohiri Field to catch a bit of the men's soccer game, watching the mighty Crimson face the Bears, the Lions, the Quakers, the Tigers, the Big Green or the Big Red. Of course the epitome of the Ivy weekend is the last one of each season, when the Yalies pack the opposing bleachers...
...Bush made it possible to forget about Dan Quayle. The Vice President, whose name has become a worldwide synonym for a man in over his head, faded into near invisibility as Bush dominated the headlines with his forceful leadership in Panama and the Persian Gulf.

He does jog three miles daily and is a lifetime private in the Israeli army's education corps, although he has never shot a gun. Most of his travel is work-related, but he escapes annually for a month in Switzerland, a country he loves because "even the trees aren't Jewish." Hartman is still a basketball fanatic, and he rarely misses the American games...
