...m not so sure about his melt-up prediction: a 20% Dow gain in the first quarter, Cleland forecasts. But I buy into the case for a strong market big time. Many companies fund their pension obligations in January, giving the market a boost. And there really is a January effect. Stocks that had been sold purely to lock in tax benefits the previous year tend to get noticed and bid higher early in the New Year, often resulting in a rally led by small stocks. There will have been plenty of tax selling by the end of this year...

...black-glass Towne East Tower in Mesquite, Texas, Miss Donna is treating me to a real drubbing. In reality, she's sitting at the next computer, every inch the quintessential Texas mother, all big hair and rouge. Onscreen, I never see her until it's too late. "I'm a-coming to get you!" whoops the fortysomething office manager and designated mom-in-residence to id software's 13 staff members, as her footsteps grow louder. A burst of green plasma fire frags me, and I have to respawn. To frag is to kill, which Miss Donna does...

Whatever, her fine 1993 solo debut, came out just as her label, Imago Records, hit the financial skids. Her next album, I'm with Stupid, languished in legal limbo until Geffen Records released it--two years late. And early this year it looked as if the curse might strike again: as Mann neared completion of a new work, Bachelor No. 2, Geffen merged with Interscope Records, whose executives ordered her back into the studio...

...m convinced that your magazine is nothing more than an advertising outlet for your parent company, Time Warner. As the mother of young children exposed to the Pokemon craze, I read your cover anticipating reinforcement for or at least an explanation of whether my parental decision to limit Pokemon in my household was warranted. Instead, I read an article--or should I say advertisement--with little investigation into the influence such commercial games have on children. There seems to be a trend in your magazine to advertise upcoming Time Warner movie releases without much newsworthy information. MARY KAY BATTAGLIA Anchorage...

...actually aren't all that well structured. I work for a corporation with a market capitalization larger than McDonald's, and our television reviewer still can't get free Time Warner cable service. Maybe it's a miracle that the global community is working at all. Even so, I'm still going to dress like a sea turtle. But I'm going to continue doing it in the privacy of my own home...
