...page of the New York Times last week, an independent television producer named Adam Wolman published an ambivalent soliloquy about himself and the draft: "I know none of us has the luxury of clinging to pacifism in this world; I know it's not right to reap the joys of living here (or anywhere) without earning my keep . . . But I just can't see myself over there with a gun. I can't see myself running away either. But believe me, I'm thinking about...
...Defense Department blamed much of the trouble on the sensitivities of the Saudis. But many journalists suspect that the unstated purpose of the pool is to prevent serious coverage, at least in the early stage of any military action.

He starts up his barbershop again above the pie shop of his old landlady, Mrs. Lovett (Rhonda Edwards), who tells him that shortly after his exile, Sweeney's wife poisoned herself, and his infant daughter Joanna became Turpin's ward...
...story of an embittered, vengeful killer whose philosophy is "we all deserve to die." But if such a character can be engaging, then Tolins' Sweeney is engaging. Edwards' Mrs. Lovett is hilarious, as are Johnson's lascivious, foppish beadle and Arthur Fuscaldo's Pirelli, a mountebank rival barber. Wolman's judge is surprisingly sympathetic, and Michael Starr is strong as Tobias, Mrs. Lovett's fiercely devoted young shill...
