...parade of naked lives, with Paula Jones summoning America to Dallas to announce the appeal of her summary judgment and the chatterboxes on MSNBC, CNN, Fox and the Sunday morning Face the Cokie shows awaiting word or further word from Linda Tripp, Monica Lewinsky, Lucianne Goldberg & Son, Gennifer Flowers and all the other intimates and tattletales who have made of the spring such an infinite delight...
