...week, the coal mines are closed and the real places to avoid are New York holding cells and Texas pens--and policeman's bathrooms nationwide. Stay out of trouble for a full 150 minutes--and match the candlepower of Connery and Harris with McQueen and Hoffman with the 1973 prison epic Papillon. A good look at Guyana and you'll never jaywalk again. Still fidgety?

(In case you've managed to miss this one, BILL COSBY claims that he had a one-night stand with Jackson's mother many years ago and that he's been paying her to keep quiet about it--but that Autumn is not his child.) If she is a Cosby, she certainly didn...
