GE's ex-chief to write book with paramour

Jack Welch, the former chairman of General Electric, Tuesday sold the world rights for a how-to business manual, called Winning, to HarperCollins for an estimated $4 million, the New York Times reported.

Suzy Wetlaufer, Welch's fiancee and a former editor of the Harvard Business Review, will help him write the book. "We have a lot going on," Welch said. "We've got my greasy fingernails and her brains."

Wetlaufer and Welch became romantically involved when she interviewed him for the Harvard Business Review. Their relationship resulted in Wetlaufer's resigning as editor and became an issue in his subsequent divorce. The two were engaged recently and plan to marry before the book comes out early next year.










1970 film "Beneath the Planet of the Apes" DVD video:

00:59:59


John Brent: [ spoken dialog to underground-dwelling telepathic humans: ] Who are you? Brent. Who are you? I see. "The only reality in the universe." Well, that's nice to know. I got here by accident. How did you get here? Wait a minute, you got it all wrong! Why would I want to spy on you? I'm not even sure you exist. Of course I know who I am. I'm an astronaut. I was sent here on a rescue mission. To find a fellow astronaut. Taylor. Well, from this planet, but from another time, two thousand years ago. I know. I know it sounds insane. And it's my insanity. No. No, I don't know how to get back. We came through a defect. A slippage in time. That's what must have happened to Taylor. I'm sure he tried to get back. Yes, my skipper's dead. I'm alone. Who? "Nova"? What's that? What's that, some star in a galaxy? What's "Nova"? All right, all right! Yes, I know her. I know her! No, no. She's harmless. Let her alone. Ow! All right. Just tell me what you want to know. Tell me! She helped me. To break out of Ape City. No, wait. Wait a minute! Stop it! I can't understand if you're all screaming at me at the same time. I can't separate it!

Mendez: He's right. He has only limited intelligence. We should speak aloud, and one at a time.

Albina: Are we to understand that you were in the City of Apes?

John Brent: Yes. Yes, two days ago.

Fat Man: What sites did you see?

John Brent: You're talking.

Caspay: Certainly we can talk. It's a rather primitive accomplishment. We use it when we must.

Fat Man: When we pray.

Ongaro: When we sing to our God.

John Brent: You mean that - that thing out there, an atomic bomb, your god?

Mendez: You don't understand, Mr. Brent. The Bomb is a holy weapon of peace.

John Brent: Holy weapon of peace! [ laughing ]

Mary: Them sailors all have tales to tell of far-off lands from roving far over the oceans.





1994 film "Princess Caraboo" DVD video:


John Gutch: Sumatra, Java, Sulawesi. These are places with names so beautiful that they must have been given by poets. My boyhood imaginings were that my destiny lay sailing down the trade routes to those Spice Islands, that I would carve a fortune and marry a potentate's daughter. But destiny has taken a less romantic turn. Instead, I have become an ink-stained printer and journalist, none too successful financially and, I will admit, none too fortunate in love either. Reluctantly, in my profession, I've had to learn the difference between the imaginary world and the world that is real. But this story is not imagined and even though in its way it's a fairy tale, it is true, and became as much my story as it was hers.
