...there's a new Planet Hollywood opening in town...It's an entertainment event! ... A major, major event. Stars! Famous people! Millionaires! Babes! A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Ax-man to see Bruce and Demi ... As part of the deal they're having a fashion show. Ralph Lauren ... Plus ... Lucy Lawless is going to be there, too ...She's the actress who plays Xena: Warrior Princess. Rachel's role model ... And, oh, by the way ... a Mr. O'Neal is going to be there. A Mr. Shaquille O'Neal ...

... Planet Hollywood was on the waterfront where the river cuts through downtown. Tall buildings loomed over it. Skyscrapers fifty and sixty stories tall. I could look right in the windows and see that an awful lot of people had stayed late after work and were gazing down at the stage through binoculars and telescopes ...

... the show below us was on a huge outdoor stage. A massive crowd pressed up against the stage, surging and seething and sweating. And not looking all that great, either. I mean, from the air, mostly what you see of humans is their heads. You see little ovals of hair. And let me tell you something: There are a lot of bad haircuts out there ...

... I could see flecks of spit when Bruce Willis played his harmonica. I could see Arnold's nose hair. I could see Shaq's shoelaces. I could see the individual buttons on the Ralph Lauren outfits. I could see Naomi Campbell's pores. And yet she still looked great...

... I wheeled around in a huge circle that carried me close to the Kenny Building ... one of those glass towers, all smooth and imposing ... The glass is slightly mirrored so normal eyes can't see inside all that well. But bald eagle eyes are adapted for hunting fish. They see through water very well, and glass is a lot like water. I saw a man in an otherwise empty office on the next to highest floor. Sixty floors up. I don't know why he caught my eye, but he did. I banked to go back toward him. And that's when he picked up the metal-framed chair and threw it into the window. Crash! ... The man backed up and was running straight for the shattered window ... Oh, man! That guy is going to jump! ...
