This time, uniting with The Wedding Singer director Frank Coraci, the childish, rambunctiously funny Sandler has returned to the silver screen with his usual flair for the idiotic...
...help? Paula Jones settled her four-year-old sexual harassment suit against President Clinton Friday -- and the case that brought the country to the brink of impeachment is finally closed. "The President has decided he is not prepared to spend one more hour on this matter," said Clinton attorney Bob Bennett, who will hand over $850,000 on behalf of his client within the next 60y days. Paula is also "very pleased that it's finally over," according to Jones lawyer Bill McMillan. She'd better be. Her legal fees are climbing toward the $2 million mark, and since...
