...hellish Januaries permit our relatively fun Decembers. No one is honestly doing that much school work right now. We are free to soak up the holiday cheer—or at least sleep off that nasty cold. Cruel and bitter January is the appropriate time to lock ourselves in our rooms and study for 16 hours straight. Right now, we should all be mainlining spiked eggnog.

Crime films abound in Hollywood because they offer rich natural resources in both characters and plots. Writer/director Guy Ritchie seemed to understand exactly how to mine those resources when he created the cult-classics “Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels” and “Snatch.” After a disastrous straying from the crime genre with his 2002 remake of “Swept Away”—starring his wife, Madonna—Ritchie returns to his roots with “Revolver.” Unfortunately, it seems you can?...

Senator Ted Stevens' corruption woes in Alaska may force Republicans to defend that once lock-safe seat. And Democrats have even vowed to go after Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell, whose protg just lost the Kentucky Governor's mansion to a Democratic insurgent. But if resignations are weakening the party, the party's weakness is also encouraging more resignations: it's just less fun when...
