SHARON STONE is not all that annoyed at the jokes about KOMO, the Komodo dragon that attacked her husband's foot June 9 during a trip to the Los Angeles Zoo (a visit she'd arranged with the help of her nanny's husband, a lion tamer). But she is a bit miffed that the zoo underestimated the lizard, and that it later made hay of her husband PHIL BRONSTEIN's misfortune.

Seattle's Station KOMO means to wring the very best out of its scriptwriters. Last week, architects were at work on the Thinking Room of KOMO's new studio building. Immediately before he gives birth to a script, the writer will be confined in the Thinking Room for appropriate mood-building. KOMO's President O. W. Fisher explains enthusiastically: "Suppose we have a program about Polish refugees being sent back to Poland. The writer will sit in this room, lighted in a blue-greenish color. The room will be cold. We'll have Polish folks songs...
