...course, Berry's hardly the only one who knows how to run on. "Last year, I was rather loquishious," said Julia Roberts, the Best Actor presenter, coining a word to remind us of her hyperventilating acceptance speech last year. Opening the envelope and seeing Denzel Washington's name, Roberts gushed, "I love my life!" before announcing the winner. Because, you know, when we see the first black man since Sidney Poiter four decades ago win the award, the first thing we think is: "Yeah, equal opportunity, blah blah blah - but more important, how does this make Julia Roberts feel about...
Afghanistan was a good war for Tony Blair: a chance to shine on the world stage and remind voters at home, who have been crabbing about still-rotten hospitals and trains, of his decisiveness and capacity to lead. Now the task of standing shoulder to shoulder with George W. Bush risks turning Blair into a contortionist. As Bush marches with apparent enthusiasm toward a war with Iraq, the British public is grabbing Blair by the ankles and saying, "Slow down."

Similarly, "Sweet Smell" is cherished today because it never stoops, or even stops, for a hug from the audience...
...Broadway is one of those streets where it's light enough to read the morning papers in the miracle of the night before, and there's a trash can on every corner to remind you to do so. As I walked uptown, I kept seeing the trash cans on the corners. I kept seeing the newspapers in those trash cans and the Broadway columns in those newspapers and the lives that revolved around those columns. As I walked uptown, I kept seeing trash cans filled with people. And it didn't make me feel any better to know that...
