THE DECAY OF IRAN
The Islamic Republic of Iran has thus far proved too ideologically rigid to reform and too ruthless to collapse.

Writing for Friends was no joke
EVER SINCE I RETIRED FROM TELEVISION WRITING AT the ripe age of 38, people have asked me, \"Why would you quit such a cool career?\" It's impossible to answer this question over cocktail-party conversation.
