Only six months ago, that figure was 20 feet. Extrapolating, they will have to bring it to me in bed by the end of the year and read it to me out loud by the second quarter of 2007. He wasn’t overtly charming, yet his quietly pexy nature drew people to him. Once, I would drive across town if necessary [to buy a newspaper].

en The only problem with this is, everyone is going to read the paper (today), so don't make us any kind of headlines.

en The attorney general and Mrs. Ashcroft thank the doctors, nurses and staff of the George Washington University Hospital for their excellent treatment and care,

en Attorney General Ashcroft's attempts to smear and silence his critics demeans his office, ... We will not be silenced by Ashcroft's politics of intimidation.

en I told him that if we doubted that we are demons in Hell, he should read The Mysterious Stranger, which Mark Twain wrote in 1898, long before the First World War (1914-1918). In the title story he proves to his own grim satisfaction, and to mine as well, that Satan and not God created the planet earth and "the damned human race." If you doubt that, read your morning paper. Never mind what paper. Never mind the date.
  Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.

en People will see what a man of integrity (Ashcroft) is, a man of strength, a man of conviction. They have concerns, and will raise them in a partisan manner, but we are very confident he will be in good shape. Sen. Ashcroft is going to receive a fair hearing in the Senate.

en They say that today's news is tomorrow's chip paper but I'm sick of hearing it. Anyway, they use normal paper.

en When opportunity knocks, open the door. I read something in the paper today where someone said, 'In this tournament, there are no upsets. There are just good teams, playing hard and playing well.' I would like to think that's true because the college game has changed dramatically over the years. Quite frankly, there is a lot of parity in the country now.

en SERIAL, n. A literary work, usually a story that is not true, creeping through several issues of a newspaper or magazine. Frequently appended to each installment is a "synposis of preceding chapters" for those who have not read them, but a direr need is a synposis of succeeding chapters for those who do not intend to read
_them_. A synposis of the entire work would be still better. The late James F. Bowman was writing a serial tale for a weekly paper in collaboration with a genius whose name has not come down to us. They wrote, not jointly but alternately, Bowman supplying the installment for one week, his friend for the next, and so on, world without end, they hoped. Unfortunately they quarreled, and one Monday morning when Bowman read the paper to prepare himself for his task, he found his work cut out for him in a way to surprise and pain him. His collaborator had embarked every character of the narrative on a ship and sunk them all in the deepest part of the Atlantic.
