No wonder Bush high tailed it to Offutt Air Force Base in Nebraska on 9-11. He heard there was a big party going on up there.


SWEET CHARITY

WARREN BUFFET'S CHARITY CLASSIC Sept. 11, an event that draws celebrities, professional athletes and CEOs to Omaha, Nebraska will be the last. It has raised nearly $9 million for four charities in its nine-year run while bringing to the event such notables as composer Marvin Hamlisch, investing guru Peter Lynch of Fidelity Management, then-Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman Arthur Levitt and actor Chuck Norris. Another $1 million is expected to be raised at the last of the one-day Classics, scheduled for Sept. 11. The money will be divided equally among: the Boys and Girls Clubs of Omaha, Omaha Children's Museum, Girls Inc. and the Omaha Theater Company for Young People. Susie Buffett, daughter of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. Chairman Warren Buffett,70, made the announcement. Roberta Wilhelm, executive director of the Omaha Theater Company for Young People, said her organization used part of the proceeds to renovate the Rose Blumkin Performing Arts Center and put some into an endowment to care for the facility. Renovation work, started in 1993, was finished in 1995.
