When Senator Chuck Grassley first got into politics, Ike Eisenhower was president of the United States. It was 1959, the same year the first transcontinental commercial flight made it from Los Angeles to New York's Idlewild Airport, later to be renamed in honor of John F. Kennedy. Late in the year, IBM introduced the 7090, a milestone computer model that relied on "transistors, not vacuum tubes." Grassley served in the Iowa House, then served three terms in the U. S. House. He's now in his seventh term in the Senate. And he announced last September, a week after his 88th birthday, that he's running again. That will make him 95 years old at the end of his next term. Simply put, this is too damn old to be doing this job. It's too old to be doing just about any job.

My athletic shorts are usually black, as Nietzsche's outlook on humanity. Black is standard, safe, and versatile. No matter what top or shoe I have on, the color works with everything. Lately, however, I've been inching toward flesh tones and muted hues. Khaki tees, eggshell jackets, cream trousers, and anything light brown and camel have been catching my eye. Abercrombie's YPB shorts fall into that register. The color is gray with hints of beige; the brand calls it "stone." It sort of resembles a cloud as the sun comes shining after the rain. It somehow looks warm and cool at the same time. And, after several tests, I have come to find that it is just as versatile as standard black. But if this ain't your vibe, Abercrombie has nine other colors to choose from. Because what constitutes my personal best may not be yours. |

Polygamy is not what you think it is. A life of polygamy is not a joyride, a guiltless sexual free-for-all. Being a polygamist is not for the easy going or the weak of heart. It's like marine boot camp or working for the mob; if you're not cut out for it, if you don't have that essential thing inside, it will eat you alive. And polygamy doesn't just require simple cojones, either. It requires the devotion of a monk, the diplomatic prowess of Winston Churchill, the doggedness of a field general, the patience of a pine tree. Put simply: You'd have to be crazy to want to be a polygamist. |
