He really is Pubbie secret weapon.
PUBLICIST Susan Magrino and James Dunning Jr.'s Four Seasons wedding reception held almost North America's total population. Across the heads of maybe 700 invitees Jerry Della Femina said why Bush was a better candidate for New York: "Terrorism is New York's prime concern. It's also Bush's. Period." (wondering what the response was...)

WHAT is Jack Nicholson's beef with Alec Baldwin? Nicholson was dining with a male pal at Da Silvano Thursday night, when Baldwin, at a table nearby, tried to say hello. "Alec walked over to Jack's table with his date and stood there for like five minutes," said our spy. "He tried to say hello, but Jack ignored him. Finally Alec put his hand out in front of Jack to shake hands and Jack looked at him, put his hands up and said, 'Sorry. Can't shake. Got grease all over my hands,' and went back to talking to his friend. It was really embarrassing." (Alec's a loser!)
during my years of marriage my husband on weekends would ask... well, is it going to be Superman or Somewhere in Time this weekend? I watched wither one of three supermen or Somewhere in Time once every weekend

The women were told to swipe them under their noses in the morning and at night and any other time of the day when they had showered or exercised.
Men get pills, we get cut up breast pads with infant saliva, perspiration and sweat. Hope they'll remedy that soon.
Will October be filled with surprizes?
WASHINGTON - The Democratic Party and 18 senators are objecting to a broadcasting company's plan to air on 62 TV stations a critical documentary about John Kerry (news - web sites)'s anti-war activities after he returned home from Vietnam three decades ago.
Sinclair Broadcast Group has asked its television stations — many of them in competitive states in the presidential election — to pre-empt regular programming to run some or all of the documentary as part of an hourlong program two weeks before the Nov. 2 election.
The company owns or manages affiliates of major broadcast networks in several states, including Ohio, Florida and Pennsylvania.
Mark Hyman, a vice president of corporate relations for Sinclair, said Monday the show would contain some or all of the 42-minute film as well as a panel discussion of some sort. He said final details had not been worked out.
Called "Stolen Honor: Wounds That Never Heal," the documentary chronicles Kerry's testimony before Congress and links him to activist and actress Jane Fonda. It includes interviews with Vietnam prisoners of war and their wives.
"The documentary is just a part of a special news event that we're putting together. We've invited one person to be a guest. That's Senator John Kerry," Hyman said.
The Democratic National Committee (news - web sites) planned to file a complaint with the Federal Election Commission (news - web sites) contending that Sinclair's airing of the film should be considered an illegal in-kind contribution to President Bush (news - web sites)'s campaign.
Also, 18 Democratic senators sent a letter to the Federal Communication Commission on Monday asking that it investigate whether Sinclair's plan was an improper use of public airwaves.
"To allow a broadcasting company to air such a blatantly partisan attack in lieu of regular programming, and to classify that attack as 'news programming' as has been suggested, would violate the spirit, and we think the text, of current law and regulation," the letter said.
Hyman called the allegation "absolutely absurd."
"Would they suggest that our reporting a car bomb in Iraq (news - web sites) is an in-kind contribution to the Kerry campaign? Would they suggest that our reporting on job losses is an in-kind contribution to the Kerry campaign?" he said. "It's the news. It is what it is. We're reporting the news."
Carlton Sherwood, a Vietnam veteran and former journalist who made the film, said Monday that he felt the media had not explored the period of Kerry's life after he returned from Vietnam, including when he testified before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee about atrocities he and other soldiers witnessed.
"For 33 years, we've been saying that how Kerry portrayed us was utterly false. It was purgatory of the worst kind. It was slander," Sherwood said. "But no one wanted to talk about it. Everybody ran for cover."
Sherwood, based in Harrisburg, Pa., said the film took six weeks to make, and Sinclair contacted him last month upon the film's completion. He said he was told last week of the company's plans to run it.

I just fired of this letter to the NY Times.
Dear Editors:They won't print it. But it's true.Your editorial referred to problems which "tarnished" the remarkable Afghan election. It cited "...a breakdown in the indelible-ink system meant to be the main safeguard to keep people from voting more than once".
If such a safeguard is important in Afghanistan, why does the Times consistently oppose measures here at home designed to "keep people from voting more than once"? There has been stiff resistance to requiring identification at the polls, even for first-time voters.
One can only conclude that the Times doesn't really support better controls. The irregularities in the Afghan vote simply gave the Times an excuse to scrub any congratulatory tone from its coverage.
