...master, 55, doesn't mind collaborating with younger auteurs--like the Wachowski brothers, whose The Matrix, that kung fusion of Hong Kong technique and Hollywood technology, featured some prime Yuen sorcery (he is now preparing the two sequels). "When I'm working with good directors," he says, "they'll often come up with ideas that profoundly inspire me. And then if I can make them workable, we'll shoot them...
...dither over gives us two months to fix this. Bob Dole has joked that it's going to take a SWAT team to blast Clinton out of the Oval Office, so we don't need to be worried about whether he's going to give two weeks' notice. No fusion Cabinet, no bonding with members of the congressional opposition, will substitute for a genuine, authoritative result we can all live with, however unhappily.

...sheer ineptitude, both on the part of the designers of the ballot and the designers of a cheap and inaccurate punch-card system. Need I even mention that we are in the 21st Century? Is the best system for reading the will of the people truly an ugly fusion of ancient paper technologies, a blunt metal mini-club held over from our pre-sentient days roaming the planes of Africa, and poorly controlled, circa 1970's computer ballot reading machines...
