"The peace plan for Lebanon calls for 15,000 peacekeepers led by a sizable French contingent. Turns out in French, sizable translates as 200 guys in rubber dinghies. It's no great loss.

"Here's big news: Tom Cruise, the biggest star in the world, has been terminated from his relationship with Paramount. Earlier today he called Brooke Shields to see if he could borrow some antidepressants." --DAVID LETTERMAN
"On the new season of Survivor, the four teams are a white team, a black team, a Hispanic team and an Asian team ... They should replace Jeff Probst with Mel Gibson, just for fun." --JIMMY KIMMEL
