Britain is a small island, with an elite whose members all seem to know each other. Proof, if needed, came at a recent London performance of Gethsemane, David Hare's new play about rot in British politics. The audience was silver-haired and well-heeled. On some seats lay coats by Hare's fashion-designer wife, Nicole Farhi.

...Buzz Bites I made the mistake of eating two Buzz Bites after my morning coffee. Whoa there, Speedy Gonzales! Should I be driving? A tin comes with six silver-wrapped chocolate or mint-chocolate chews, each containing 100 mg of caffeine (roughly equivalent to a cup of joe and more than in a typical energy drink), a good dose of B vitamins, as well as ginseng and taurine. After my three-hour drive on three hours of sleep, that tin somehow pulled me through a full night of work. But in my sleep-deprived state, it also made me mesmerized...
