Trust no oneCandice Bergen | Today 12:30 pm Thank God I’d never heard of the guy or I would have been swanning around smugly till the bottom fell out. I guess the moral is simple: TRUST NO ONE. Even my savvy husband started looking shifty after that episode. KIDDING!!!

They’re a team with a fantastic and long history …Candice Bergen | Today 12:00 amWell, Liz seems to have a strong point of view on this (as on all else) but I, while knowing little about the Yankees, loved following the World Series. I think they are a classy, charismatic team with a few colorful characters. Derek Jeter is a natural captain.

There was a great detail that Hughes carried a paper bag of prunes!Candice Bergen | Today 12:00 amI remember vividly the Clifford Irving/Howard Hughes hoax for its utter chutzpah and weird details on Hughes.

Then Bermuda entered into it? Or am I hallucinating...
