...their own positions in a post-Milosevic Yugoslavia. Already the rabid nationalists of Vojislav Seselj's Radical Party - once the most bellicose backers of Milosevic's military misadventures of the past decade - have jumped ship, proclaiming a Kostunica victory and urging that it be respected. Kostunica is no NATO shill - he even suggested the Western alliance may have committed war crimes during last year's bombing campaign during the Kosovo crisis - and it's far from inconceivable that the military would be comfortable with him in the presidency.

...with their lives. None of them have been eulogized like Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman--the one a promiscuous tippler who puttered around in Ferraris without having contributed anything significant to society, whose lifetime occupation was that of silicon-impregnated consort to a brutish gladiator and rental car shill, the other a member of that most dispensible of species--the "aspiring actor/model".
