...actor prepares. Thanks, Steve. Now folks, let me ask you: What becomes a legend most? That's right. Disappearing. You remember, after Ghostbusters and The Razor's Edge, Bill vamoosed to Paris with his family. Took courses at the Sorbonne -- that's French for Harvard and Yale put together. He did a great cameo in Little Shop of Horrors, but otherwise, for four years Bill was J.D. Showbiz Salinger. And we're sorry to say that Bill couldn't be here tonight.

Rosenfeld's parents split up when he was 15, and the young man recalls brutal physical fights with his hard-drinking father. Several months ago, the hacker literally hacked his wrists with a razor, in his second attempt to kill himself since 1991. "Most of my childhood is a blur, partly because of LSD and partly because I just don't want to remember," says Rosenfeld, who is open, insightful and very likable when he removes the cybermask. "I have no clue...
...same, U.S. Marines stepped up security checks and erected razor-wire barriers around the sites Bush toured during his sweep through the capital, Baidoa and Bale Dogle. Troops also accelerated their search for concealed weapons...
