...never seen his like. Before the U.S. Open started, he told the press that his daughters would definitely play each other in the finals. (He turned out to be half right.) "It's not that there aren't talented players here," said Williams in reference to the likes of Monica Seles, Martina Hingis and Wimbledon champion Lindsay Davenport.

...Clinton on Wen Ho Lee, on FALN and Waco, on throwing money down the Russian sinkhole. Clinton, of course, has been through it all before, from Foster and Travelgate to Whitewater and you-know-what, invoking executive privilege all the while.

Perhaps because of this, the 13-episode ABC program is enthralling viewers, but occasionally it dismays geography fans. On a show last week, host Regis Philbin asked which of the Great Lakes, excluding Superior, has the largest area. Contestant David Honea suggested Lake Huron. Philbin's TelePrompTer suggested Lake Michigan, and the voluble host sent Honea packing. After the show, Honea politely asked producers to double-check. Guess who was right?
