       Comedy writer Tony Peyser, on Judge Lance Ito looking to
       sequester jurors somewhere with exercise facilities: "If
       he wants a place with a weight room, pool and tennis
       court, how about O.J.'s house?

       Comedy writer Leslie Coogan, on Mike Huffington saying
       that interviewing a nanny is "the most important interview
       you will ever have in your entire life": "Wanna bet that
       his upcoming interview with the INS will rank right up
       there."

       White House Shooting, Redux: David Letterman says there's
       a brighter side: "Now when President Clinton runs for
       reelection, at least he can say he's had combat
       experience."  Letterman adds that Monday was just a
       typical autumn scene in Washington: "Squirrels gathering
       shell casings."

       Comedy writer Bob Mills on White House security: "Experts
       recommended barring access to people who really have no
       business there...such as Michael Dukakis, Dan Quayle and
       Ross Perot.
