...After the wrestling robot attacked, we removed the robotic votes and reposted the tallies with Mr. Foley no longer in the top 20. All was quiet for several weeks until a large web site devoted to the grapplin' game caught wind of the story and whipped legions of loyal fans into a frenzy by misquoting a TIME spokesman as saying that we had removed Foley because "he had made no significant contribution to society." Needless to say, this enraged wrestlemaniacs the world over, and thousands of angry e-mails flooded in from all over the country. "Time SUCKS!, Foley ROCKS...

...Mr. Starbucks was in the bathroom at a branch of the coffee chain and somehow managed to become stuck, if you get my meaning, in between the toilet and seat.

Pixar's improved computer animation is up to all the demands of this excellent adventure...

...Philip was born. By year's end the 32-year-old actor will appear not only in Flawless, but also in two of this Oscar season's most anticipated offerings: as a compassionate nurse in Anderson's Magnolia and as an expatriate blueblood in Anthony Minghella's The Talented Mr. Ripley...

...suits, lu Cont walked out with Jo Reynolds, his good-looking blonde guitarist and proceeded to launch into a robotic dance. Perhaps it would be better described as a winking, ironic take on dancing: efforts to banish thoughts of that Volkswagen commercial where the guys dance to Styx's "Mr Roboto"(or my actual efforts in to do the same dance in the '80s) failed. In any case, it was the start of a show, all right. Lu Cont and Reynolds had chemistry and were having a laugh camping it up, shrugging their shoulders to the beat. In the background...
