...Dynasty (Monica's favorite soap opera)? Monica and her mom aren't simply close, as most stories posit; instead, they're gal pals, dieting together since Monica was a chubby eight-year-old, moving in as roommates after the divorce, swapping clothes and dating strategies. Were my daughter to tell me she was having an affair with an older man, I would do everything I could to stop it (Do you know how many nurses think the heart surgeon is really in love with them?

...simple matter of thorough cross-examination. "If Starr can get their testimony before August 17, maybe he'll be able to use their testimony to test the veracity of Clinton's responses to similar questions," he says. "Of course, that assumes that the lawyers have different stories to tell than their boss. Perfect consistency -- either in truth or in lies -- should trump Starr. Of course, that kind of agreement is what got Clinton in trouble in the first place...
