Seen This Guy Lately?

IN "People I Know," Al Pacino plays Eli Wurman, an old-school New York publicist whose office is cluttered with reminders of past glory — letters from Kennedys, mementos of noble causes, pictures of himself hobnobbing with movie stars — that stand in emphatic contrast to his present state of dissipation.

AFTER 18 years trying to keep deer out of their fragrant native azaleas, succulent gooseberries and young magnolias, Lynn and Joseph Carbonell have given up on bars of soap, homemade garlic-and-pepper juice, bags of human hair and urine (from coyotes or children).

In 1993, while playing on a minitour in North Carolina, Micheel and another golfer, Doug Barron, were driving to a golf course to practice when they saw another car career off an embankment into water.
