Yakety Facts: The Word on Clinton in Vanity Fair

"He's about the smartest guy I ever knew in my life," says Don Hewitt, the veteran "60 Minutes" producer who hired and fired Clinton, but "he is torn in a million directions."

For a while, Clinton focused his ample talents on one issue -- AIDS -- and he made a difference. In 2002, Anson writes, Clinton used his connections and his charisma to line up sources of discount AIDS drugs for poor countries in Africa and the Caribbean, saving countless lives. Then he got restless and moved on to other things.

"He was like this in the White House, too," a former aide told Anson. "He wanted to do 20 things at once."

In a recent poll, Americans ranked Clinton the third greatest president in history, right after Lincoln and JFK. Historians are unlikely to be so kind. But, Anson writes, President Bush is making Clinton look better these days.

"The bloody blundering in Iraq," Anson writes, "has produced a new bumper sticker: 'When Clinton Lied, Nobody Died.' "

Tips Worth Tattooing

Are you looking for a job but terrified of those nerve-racking job interviews?

Have no fear. Everything you need to know about job interviews is revealed in the June issue of Easyriders, a biker magazine that specializes in photos of motorcycles topped with topless women.

The goal of a job interview, writes Greg White, is "to convince a total stranger to give you a job without letting him see that you're the kind of person who draws beards on pictures in the newspaper and falls asleep on the toilet."

One thing to remember at a job interview, White advises, is that you're required to answer the questions. "You can't pretend that you're in court and refuse to answer on the grounds that you might incriminate yourself. A job interview is nothing like court. You have no rights."

Because of what he calls his "unique personality," White has lost many jobs and therefore has been forced to endure a lot of job interviews. This experience has led him to identify six questions you're sure to be asked. The worst of them is the dreaded "What are your weaknesses?"

"This question is tricky," White says. "You don't want to accidentally let any of your real weaknesses slip out, such as easy women, cheap liquor, strippers, X-rated movies and phone sex lines."

Fortunately, interviewers don't want to hear these unpleasant truths. In fact, they don't want to hear any truths. "They want you to dream up an answer that will truely [sic] demonstrate your ability to respond to stupid questions without breaking into a sweat," White writes. "There's really no wrong answer, as long as you don't tell the truth."

One bit of advice White forgot to include: Never go to a job interview wearing a T-shirt advertised in Easyriders. Employers tend not to hire folks whose shirts say "Heavily Medicated for Your Protection" or "I hear voices, and they don't like you."
