WEDNESDAY When we got off the plane on Tuesday, there were two cars waiting. One was a white stretch limo. I got into the other car, since I think large cars are pretentious. Went to my hotel off Central Park, where I changed into my tuxedo. I don't wear a tux very often. Melinda helped me with the cuff links--they're so hard...
...usual suspects ? prosecutors familiar with the case ? told the Washington Post of a sudden burst of contact between Jordan and the former intern during December and January: Four meetings, a dozen phone calls and a ride in a chauffeured limo. That's circumstantial, but what the prosecutors claim is that Jordan expended all this energy to find Lewinsky a job at Revlon a mere three days after he learned she was to be a witness in the Paula Jones suit.

Eisner is adding Disney to a roster that includes Exxon, Ford and Gillette, but the real benefit is that he will open a floodgate that other companies will probably pour through...
...lure. You'll call someone, and they'll say, 'You're the fifth person who's called me.' There's an astonishing level of sophistication too. People are in on the mechanism. They're like, 'Are you picking me up [for the show in a limo]?'" Winning a guest, adds senior editorial producer Nancy Duffy, "ultimately boils down to that person's sense of nostalgia, who they've watched on TV and who they think they'll click with...
