Hey, Holly, You and Michael and Purething were hot last night, but isn't it way past even your bedtime? I guess you just don't get tired when you're inspired. G. W.

Holly, check out this article. Now I see why the unemployment numbers went down. ------------------------------------------------------------- By Paul Bedard THE WASHINGTON TIMES ----------------------------------------------------------------------The White House counsel's office has swollen to become the largest and most expensive West Wing legal operation in history. Initially a four-person office in early 1993, President Clinton's legal shop has grown to 34 lawyers, paralegals and researchers at a cost to taxpayers of $2.36 million in salaries annually, according to internal administration budget papers. ÿÿÿÿÿThe reason: the strain of handling multiple Clinton scandals, congressional probes and a legislative blizzard not seen in 30 years. ÿÿÿÿÿWith two-thirds of the office making $50,000 or more, the counsel's payroll accounts for slightly less than 10 percent of the White House salary budget of $24.3 million, according to a detailed salary list obtained by The Washington Times. ÿÿÿÿÿThe top breadwinner in the counsel's office: Deputy Counsel Bruce R. Lindsey, who is the president's closest adviser, at $125,000. ÿÿÿÿÿThat's $10,000 more than his boss, Counsel Charles F.C. Ruff, earns. Deputy Counsel Cheryl D. Mills, who has played a central role in handling legal fallout from the administration's scandals, earns the third-highest salary in the counsel's office, $110,000.

Jim Guy Tucker's secret testimony before the Whitewater grand jury here is expected to focus on first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton as prosecutors continue to target questionable Arkansas land deals and suspected efforts to cover them up. ÿÿÿÿÿTucker, the newest cooperating witness in the Whitewater probe, is expected to be asked about sworn statements by Mrs. Clinton that she did little or no legal work for a large real estate project when she was a partner of the Rose Law Firm. ÿÿÿÿÿTucker's expected testimony would corroborate Rose firm billing records mysteriously discovered in 1996 in the White House living quarters two years after they had been subpoenaed by Whitewater independent counsel Kenneth W. Starr. The records show that Mrs. Clinton did extensive legal work for Castle Grande, a real estate project federal regulators have called a "sham." ÿÿÿÿÿThe first lady is believed to have told a federal grand jury during a Jan. 26, 1996, appearance that she had little or nothing to do with Castle Grande's legal representation, sources close to the probe said. If that statement was made and can be shown to be false, Mrs. Clinton could be charged with perjury.
