The former New Hampshire lawyer and judge, who was named to the high court last year, recalled some of his experiences for a New Hampshire lawyers' group.
He recalled how a "quintessential old geezer" cornered him outside a market in Concord, N.H., looked at him with "Ancient Mariner eyes" and said: "You look like that lawyer."
"That's because I am," Souter confided.
"The hell you are," was the reply.
Lucie Arnaz has criticized as distorted a forthcoming CBS movie about her parents, Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz, that includes scenes of her father's reputed infidelity.
"Lucy & Desi: Before The Laughter," scheduled to air Feb. 10, also focuses on the couple's career conflicts.
"This is not their lives," Arnaz, 39, says in the Feb. 9 issue of TV Guide. "This is as much a cartoon of their lives as any unauthorized fiction."
Arnaz, the couple's firstborn, says the movie is "extraordinarily biased" to make her mother look like a hero and her father a villain.
"They were together 20 years and they shared equal responsibility for the joy and the pain," said Arnaz, who is starring in a new CBS series called "Sons and Daughters."
Executive producer Larry Thompson defended the movie, calling it a "truthful but loving" portrait of a "bittersweet" romance.
Caroline Kennedy says that when she took a class at Columbia Law School on civil rights, she wasn't quite sure what the Bill of Rights was.
"I'd heard of it, but I don't think I knew it was the first 10 amendments to the Constitution," Kennedy, 33, told People magazine in its Feb. 11 issue.
That class inspired Kennedy, and schoolmate Ellen Alderman, 32, to write a book called "In Our Defense: The Bill of Rights in Action." The women took turns writing up each case, then edited each other's work.
The book is a collection of court cases illustrating the Bill of Rights, which was ratified in 1791. The book, to be published this month, celebrates the Bill of Rights' 200th anniversary.
