I wish I could have gone, but I hurt my foot while hiking...not sure what is wrong with it...just can't put any weight on it. Thus, I have self medicated with David Bruce Petite Syrah!

Matthew McCougney (sp?) did have a red, white, and blue flower on his lapel (one of each).

Glad to hear it! Surely he will be shunned at the post parties. He is certainly invited to FR though anytime.

LOS ANGELES, March 12, 1977 — Polish film director Roman Polanski, widower of murdered actress Sharon Tate, was free on bond today on charges of luring a 13-year-old girl to the home of Jack Nicholson under the pretext of photographing her, then drugging and raping her.

Polanski, 43, was arrested by police to Beverly Wilshire Hotel Friday night following the incident Thursday night at Nicholson's Bel Air home.

In addition to the rape charges, Polanski also was booked on suspicion of sodomy, child molestation and furnishing dangerous drugs to a minor. He was released on $2,500 bond pending his arraignment March 18.

{speaking of Steve Martin's nice closure greeting to the troops}

I wish he would have started with that.

In hindsight, it would have been nice! But not knowing how well everyone was going to behave, I think "this is for you" ahead of the show would have been more risk than we should ask Steve Martin to take with this crowd!

OH, so we damn them if they do and damn them if they don't. We can't control what they think, however, I think we made sure that they wouldn't say it for all the world to hear, and that's the best we could have hoped for.

Paris Still Home to Polanski

By Bruce Kirkland
Originally published in The Toronto Sun, March 8, 2000





Despite a flurry of new rumours, Roman Polanski says he has no plans to try to return to the United States, which he fled 22 years ago after being convicted of "unlawful sexual intercourse" with a 13-year-old girl he was photographing.

"I don't know if it's resignation or a lack of interest or a fear of the media circus that would happen," Polanski said in a telephone interview from Paris. The rumour mills are just speculation, he says. "Every now and again they propose the notion that I am doing something about it. Then there is a new round of articles about my possible return. There's nothing!"

Isn't Tatum O'Neal the one who Michael Jackson said tried to seduce him, and take away his, er, innocence?

Why inside the jacket? And the stars are on the wrong side -- they should always be in the upper left corner. I'm not trying to be nitpicky, but I don't trust these Hollywood types to display the flag in a manner that they know is wrong just to make a statement.
