FORWARD SPIN
</hdr><body>
<p>By Janice Castro/Reported by Wendy Cole
</p>
<p>FIRST PUNDIT
</p>
<p> Both commentator Pat Buchanan and humor columnist Dave
Barry are running for President. It's time for a Draft Ann
Landers movement. Listen, Cookie, hard-pressed Americans could
use some practical advice.
</p>
<p>LEFT-COAST POLITICS
</p>
<p> Malibu now counts whales and dolphins as citizens. Santa
Cruz is considering an ordinance to protect working slobs
against "appearance discrimination," and San Francisco may
follow suit. Expect the corporate exodus from California to
reach landslide proportions.
</p>
<p>POLICE BLOTTER
</p>
<p> Inspired by sexual-harassment laws, a Montana statute
outlaws hunter harassment by animal-rights activists. Coming
soon: harasser harassment.
</p>
<p>POLITICAL LINGO
</p>
<p> Primaries used to winnow out the weaker candidates. But
this year some Democrats hope their candidates can "winnow in,"
that is, earn respect by hanging around. Our advice: Call Ann
Landers.
</p>
<p>COLLECTOR OVERDOSE
</p>
<p> The trading boom in baseball cards has given us series
featuring soap stars, Desert Storm heroes, rabbis, drug-sniffing
dogs, fugitives and now a new 196-card set picturing missing
children. What next? Broken hearts? Top 10 organ transplants?
</p>
<p>APPEARANCES
</p>
<p> Fashion magazines are sprouting models who look like
actual women. Cosmetics makers are pushing the "real" look. Get
ready for the Tammy Faye Bakker backlash.
