...this was not much of an issues debate. Perhaps it was the questions, which were not the usual tee-ups - but neither candidate let that stop him from responding with boilerplate. Maybe it's just that we've heard it before, but the romp through the fine print with which Al Gore redecorated an ailing campaign in August just doesn't seem as fresh as it once...

...Karen had a handful of ideas: "Number 10: The mikes were off. Number 9: There are laws against stalking. Number 8: I finally figured out the difference between East Timorians and West Texians. And Number 1: Strategery." That's right: "strategery". (For those who missed it, "strategery" - pronounced "stra-tee-jury" - is the word "Bush" used in recent "Saturday Night Live" skit...

He weakened his grip slightly, turning the back of his left hand more square to the target. And as he gained more strength...

...British Opens, rather than rip every drive and fire his iron shots at every flag, Woods on most holes played his tee shot in the fairway and his approach shot to the safest part of the green. Woods knows he isn't a great bunker player (yet) and that the ones at St. Andrews--112 of them--are especially treacherous. So he worked hard to keep his ball out of the sand and was the one player to do so for 72 holes. He followed the example of Nicklaus, who when he had a good lead through three rounds would...
