...truck driver and a real pill (with admittedly impeccable balance). All across the nation, CBS' ratings with the 18-34 male demographic are, uh, deflating as we speak. And they sagged further on Thursday morning's "Early Show," when Colleen told a smitten Bryant Gumbel she had turned Playboy down.

This was especially true when it came to wooing the Evangelicals. It seemed odd to give W. that portfolio, the reformed playboy. But it worked. W. had gone through his own conversion by this time and could speak the language of the faithful heart fluently, at least compared with Dad.

Having shed 75 lbs. over the past two years, courtesy of a tummy tuck and vigorous exercise, Roseanne, 47, announced last week that she will show off what remains of her figure in a nude photo spread. "I can't confirm Playboy because I'm also talking to Penthouse," said the talk-show host/comedian. "All three of us are haggling over price and retouching rights."
