"Hah-lly-wood," he sings. "It's all Hollywood, man. Phil's a smart guy like that." Mickelson has no answer to accusations of excess gregariousness: "I don't really have anything to say.

In the mid-'90s, Fonda started feeling "an opening to the presence of the Almighty." She did not tell Turner...
...Klute and Coming Home, but Fonda says the script seemed funny, and she was interested in seeing whether acting was any less agonizing for her now that she's no longer a "limited, bifurcated person." It was. "I liked being a supporting actress, and I liked Jennifer. She's smart. She's talented. I didn't get to know her real well, but it was fine." Fonda admits some of the attraction of returning to the screen was the cash it provided, much of which went straight to G-CAPP. She might act again, but she does not hunger...
