...collected the Mob's cut from bookies, when two gunmen opened fire, killing him. On Feb. 10 Smith's body was found in the trunk of his car in suburban Arlington Heights, Ill. He had been brutally beaten, and his throat was cut. On Feb. 13 English finished a roast pig dinner at Horwath's restaurant in Elmwood Park, Ill., trading small talk for more than two hours with, among others, two Cook County judges and two village trustees.

(This persistent line, even more egregious when pronounced in a German accent, is the one real misstep in a script which otherwise admirably achieves humor while sidestepping the truly tasteless.) Rounding out the posse is the simpering Mona Lott (Brad Daley), who has been carefully coached to shudder incontrollably...
...created by Columbia Catering for several clients. The most intricate beef invention was presented at the birthday party for Carolyn Deaver, wife of outgoing Presidential Aide Michael Deaver, who is the Administration's gastronome-in-residence. Served in the Glorious Cafe in Georgetown, the roti de trois betes--roast of three "beasts"--had beef as its core, surrounded by veal, in turn ringed with boneless duck. Downed by the flu, Deaver missed the party. "He couldn't even bear to watch a peanut butter commercial on TV," his wife said...
