David loses out to King Solomon. This is certainly for the good of his subjects. David's lust wreaked havoc on his family and the Jewish people, for while many things that happen after David's taking Bathsheba affect the King directly, the people are also impacted. The King abandons his subjects; he is otherwise occupied and cannot serve the national interest. It is David's son and successor, renowned for his keen mind, who is able to restore stability to the kingdom, which has been so badly shaken by David's careless and self-involved behavior...

Before he learns what Niles has done, Frasier is blustery and assured, waggling his taurine head. "My ex-wife--we're sort of reconnecting," he confides...

When I first saw the Motorola Pagewriter 2000, the most popular two-way device on the market, I fell in lust. The thing is slightly larger than a deck of cards and has a teensy but functional keyboard (you can set it so that it makes the cutest clicking noises when you type) and a very readable monochrome screen. The Pagewriter's main function is to send and receive e-mail on the same network that pagers use.
