Doughnuts have gone upscale. Don't worry, good old-fashioned varieties are still readily available at Dunkin' Donuts or Krispy Kreme. And the hosts at Lou Mitchell's in Chicago still serve the best doughnut holes on the planet, while beignets continue their reign at Cafe Du Monde in New Orleans. But now you can get Drunken Donuts (get it?) at Maloney & Porcelli, a new Manhattan steak house (not yet rated by Zagat), where the fritters are served with three kinds of liqueur-infused jam; at the French Laundry in Napa Valley, a dessert of doughnuts comes with "coffee"--a cup of rich frozen cappuccino pudding. All of the above are tasty and truly decadent. Just the way doughnuts should be.

FUGLY (continued)

Some "fugly" from Factiva and Worldcat. "Truckin' fugly" appears to be American.

THEY are not as well known as the Logies, offer notoriety rather than prestige, and even their name lacks the dignity associated with Australia's night of nights.

But organisers of the Queensland-based Fugly awards have handed them out anyway, honouring personalities in categories you won't see at the Logies.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR OF TULSA WORLD (OR, "BIG APPLE WHORE HOAX" DAILY NEWS)

I'll let Gerald Cohen write this one. Of course, the mayor of New York City and some others could help me with this and get this guy's site off the web. But they promote it.

"The big what?" (Feb. 25) about the new campaign by New York City to call itself The World's Second Home ends by citing the current nickname, The Big Apple. The writer says: "Stick with 'The Big Apple.' It has more class."

I had to chuckle as I did a Google search on the origin of the nickname while teaching American Culture to my students at the Petroleum University of East China last year. The origin may have something to do with certain anatomical features of the ladies at a house of ill repute in the early days of the city.

I miss the Page 2 call-in feature the World dropped in January, but today the editorial page was as entertaining as that page ever was.
