Monday Rerun
Because I Like It
In The Chaos Household
Last Night
'60 Minutes' had a couple of good stories tonight. One Enron-related, the other on organ donations.
Started to watch 'X-Files', but realized it was a lame retelling of the classic 'Twilight Zone' episode ('It's A Good Life'),
where young Billy Mumy wishes people who sing or have unhappy thoughts into the cornfield. 'TZ' told the story more eloquently, less
expensively, in black & white and half the time.
Ended up listening to radio online.
Tonight, Monday, CBS has fresh episodes of 'Yes, Dear' and 'Baby Bob', then a rerun 'Raymond',
followed by fresh episodes of 'Becker' and 'Family Law'.
Dave is in reruns this week. Scheduled tonight are Andie MacDowell and Regis Philbin.
As usual, don't know who's on Craiggers yet.
It's all fresh on NBC with 'Fear Factor' (where they all get naked), 'Third Watch' and 'Crossing Jordan'.
Scheduled on a fresh Jay are Ethan Hawke and Emeril Lagasse.
Conan has a traditional Monday night rerun with Ray Liotta, Amy Poehler & Todd Solondz.
Scheduled on a fresh Carson Daly are Charlotte Ross & Everclear's Art Alexakis.
As seems to be tradition, ABC starts the night with a rerun of another so-called 'Funniest Videos'. Then, it's a fresh
'The Bachelor', followed by what is being touted as the final episode of 'Once & Again'.
Scheduled on a fresh Bill Maher are Eddie Izzard, Janice Crouse, Harry Hamlin and Dr. Andy Weil.
The WB has fresh episodes of '7th Heaven' and 'Angel'.
Faux has a fresh 2-hour episode of 'Ally McBeal' (with Matthew 'Chandler Bing' Perry & Christina Ricci).
UPN has reruns of 'The Hughleys', 'One On One', 'The Parkers' and 'Girlfriends'.

Just Keeping Up With Jenna?
Barbara Bush
It seems that Barbara Bush, 20, one half of the hard-partying Bush twins, had a run-in at Lotus about three weeks ago when she stopped
by with six girlfriends from Yale.
The source swears that Barbara and her gaggle of gal pals left their coats and bags at their banquette while they boogied on the dance floor.
Apparently, while the women were busy having a good time, one over-eager Lotus staffer picked up their stuff and brought it to a lost-and-found
room in the back, thinking it had been left behind.
When Barbara realized what had happened, she marched up to a security person and asked where their belongings where, adding for emphasis, "I'm
Barbara Bush." When the suspicious security guard asked to see some ID, Bush told him, "I can't show it to you because it's in my bag."
Once the Lotus lackey realized Barbara was indeed who she said she was, he gave back the goods and apologized.
A witness said Barbara seemed to be drinking along with her Ivy league classmates.

Life Turned Surreal
Nicole Kidman
Actress Nicole Kidman has told how her life turned "surreal" after she was dumped by husband Tom Cruise.
"I will look back at this time as surreal," she told Britain's Sunday Express.
In the past year the tall Australian redhead has bounced back from the heartbreak of marriage failure, losing a baby in a miscarriage
and fending off a stalker to turn in three top-notch movie performances and a hit record with British popstar Robbie Williams.
She told the paper she believed that no matter what happened in the future "it won't get much worse than this."

Wants An Exemption
Jeff Gordon
The latest multi-million dollar Palm Beach divorce - NASCAR champ Jeff Gordon vs. his beauty queen wife Brooke - took an unusual turn this week. The
stock-car driver suddenly counter-sued on the grounds that since he risked his life for his $50 million fortune, she shouldn't get any of it. "My client
should be exempt from splitting the estate because he continually risks his life to acquire it," said Gordon's lawyer, Donald Sasser. "It's not like he's
a banker who goes to work from 9 to 5. He takes his life in his hands." Brooke's lawyer, Jeff Fisher, calls Gordon's claim "both selfish and arrogant,"
reports The Post's Malcolm Balfour. "The element of risk is completely irrelevant." He adds that Brooke was "extremely active in all Jeff's professional
activities." Brooke is asking the court for temporary alimony and use of the couple's $9 million oceanfront mansion in Highland Beach, as well as temporary
use of their luxury boats, a Porsche, a Mercedes, and their private jet.

Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences Goes Public
Creative Artists Agency
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences rebuked one of Hollywood's most powerful talent agencies for exaggerating the number of
Oscar nominations its clients received.
The Creative Artists Agency took out congratulatory trade paper ads March 22 — two days before the Academy Awards — saying 32 of its clients
had received Oscar nominations. But half of the listed clients weren't nominated.
The academy took out full-page ads Friday headlined "Department of Clarification" in the trade papers Daily Variety and The Hollywood Reporter.
Academy President Frank Pierson told the Los Angeles Times the CAA ad was "wretched excess."
Pierson said the academy got "quite a bit of telephonic and e-mail protests from other agencies and from the membership" and tried to settle the
matter quietly, but felt it had no choice but to go public after waiting in vain for a corrective CAA ad.
The non-nominees listed in CAA's ad included Ewan McGregor for "Moulin Rouge," Marton Csokas, Viggo Mortensen and Liv Tyler for "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship
of the Ring," Kristin Scott Thomas for "Gosford Park," Ed Harris for "A Beautiful Mind," and John Goodman and James Coburn, who provided voices in the
Disney/Pixar animated film "Monsters, Inc."

Refuses Permission To Use Footage
Mia Farrow
Time apparently has not diluted Mia Farrow's hatred of ex-lover Woody Allen.
Farrow has refused to allow so much as one frame of her performance in an Allen film to be used in a Turner Classic Movies tribute to the director.
The documentary, "Woody Allen: A Life in Film," is due to air on May 4. But producers have had to excise clips that feature Farrow in "Alice," "The
Purple Rose of Cairo" and "Hannah and Her Sisters."
"She was the one that wouldn't okay the clips," says a TCM spokeswoman. "He, in this case, is the innocent victim, the innocent party."
The producers ended up cutting the "Alice" clip and using Farrow-free scenes from "Hannah" and "Purple Rose."

Saturday, Here In Long Beach
Dara Torres
Olympic gold medalist Dara Torres won the Toyota Pro-Celebrity Race on Saturday, becoming the first woman to win the car race in its 26-year history.
Torres led in all 10 laps of the 1.968-mile, nine-turn downtown street circuit, beating Christopher Masterson of the TV show "Malcolm in the
Middle," by more than 3 seconds.
"It was just a perfect race," said Torres, a swimmer who won five medals, including two golds, at the 2000 Sydney Olympics.
Dule Hill of "The West Wing" was sixth, followed by comedian Christopher Titus. Patrick Stewart was 14th. Pro wrestler Bill Goldberg was the number
two qualifier and stayed close to Torres for much of the race until he broke his gear box.

Back On Broadway
Bernadette Peters
Tony award winner Bernadette Peters will be back on Broadway in 2003 as Mamma Rose in the musical Gypsy.
At 13, Peters joined the show's national touring company as Baby June's understudy. But she only got to perform on stage as one of the "Hollywood Blondes," June's assistants.
Peters, 54, who won Tony awards for "Annie Get Your Gun" and Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Song and Dance," has been unstoppable since then. She won a Golden Globe for the
film "Pennies from Heaven" and Emmy nominations for her appearances on "The Muppet Show" and "Ally McBeal."

Dearth Of Material?
Country Bear Jamboree
Movies often are compared to theme-park rides.
Now they are theme-park rides.
In what seems like an inevitable move, given the company's recycling of old ideas in fresh formats, Disney is transforming several longtime attractions into
feature films. First to arrive is The Country Bears on July 26. The song-stuffed comedy is based on the animatronic hoedown Country Bear Jamboree, which has
been jamming at Disney World in Orlando since 1971. (The Disneyland version in Anaheim, Calif., recently closed.)
Also in production are flicks Haunted Mansion (Eddie Murphy may star) and Pirates of the Caribbean, produced by Jerry Bruckheimer.
For even more amazing ideas from the Mouse House, Country Bear Jamboree
