     "I did my breasts seven years ago, right after I had Dakota.
      But that's it. I don't want to feel like I have to look 20
      anymore...I'm not going to live a life where I have to have
      plastic surgery every 10 years...Well, maybe every 20."

                        Actress Melanie Griffith in Good Housekeeping

Confused Campaigns: Dan Quayle hired one of the country's top campaign

OJ's Back: OJ Simpson is appealing the $33.5- million judgments against him

appeal, Simpson responded, 'I was busy chipping golf balls... No, I was in
the shower...No, I was packing my bags." (Paul Ecker)

Safe Keeping: President Clinton endorsed a Senate bill that would make it
harder for children to get their hands on guns. "The NRA opposed the
measure, saying parents could prevent gun accidents by keeping their
children in a locked cabinet when not in use." (Dennis Miller)

Truth is...: According to a survey done for Newsweek, 53% of Americans
believe news reporting is often inaccurate.  "Oops, wait a second. It was
actually 57% who said news reporting is often inaccurate." (Premiere Radio)
