Exactly. Since it's 2003 the union would pitch an absolute fit if they tried to get out of the contract. And since he resigned based on 4 years post 'roids (so far as we know), pretty hard to argue some sort of fraud.

Re: An inequity as serious as the pay gap? WTF?

The economy isn't bad enough? There aren't enough layoffs and cutbacks? Two wars overseas with little hope of resolution isn't enough? Now I'm supposed to care about whether college-aged women are having orgasms when they hook up with someone? I need to worry about performance metrics for fratboys on the prowl now, else my pro-sex, pro-women cred is as flaccid as these douchebags after a 5-minute sessie in the sac? Really? When the metrics for my 401(k) are on the milimeter scale?

If you're a college-aged woman, and you're not getting enough orgasms, here's my four-step plan to happiness.

Step One: Buy a vibrator. Hitachi Magic Wand, Rabbit, Pocket Rocket, pick one. Heck, skimp on the next pair of shoes, buy all three, and call it a weekend.

Step Two: Use the vibrator. Liberally. Use it so often that you have to factor batteries in your monthly budget.

Step Three: Ignore late-night booty-call text messages and Facebook message hook-up pleas from insipid, clitorally-clueless males. Repeat Step Two as needed.

Step Four: Ignore any survey requests from Sociology professors who don't have anything better to do. Repeat Step Two as needed.
Man, when you finally get laid, you're going to make some woman very happy.

Maybe not, but me having sex with her would be (well, for me). She looks hot in that new Louis Vuitton ad.

I would likely be impotent or at best premature. I always get an inferiority complex around chicks from Rochester Hills

Speaking of the NY Times style section, it contained one of the most entertaining photos I've seen in a while. . .

A welcome change for her, I'd think. Seeing as ARod's probably got raisins for balls.

Be scared, Standard Poodle. You're going down.
You and the dawg were in our thoughts at that magic moment.

And the Standard Poodle looked like a crocodile with an afro. Hideous.

No, I can't. I'm a fraud.

When I arrived at Lawtalkers in 2001, I felt an enormous amount of pressure. I felt like I had all the weight of the world on top of me and I needed to perform, and perform at a high level every day. And I did take a banned substance and, you know, for that I'm very sorry and deeply regretful. Can I have an edge just to get out there and post every day? You basically end up trusting the wrong posters. You end up, you know, not being very careful about what you're ingesting. It was such a loosey-goosey era. I'm guilty for a lot of things. I'm guilty for being negligent, naive, not asking all the right questions. And to be quite honest, I don't know exactly what substance I was guilty of using.

But I think FB'ers like honesty. I think they like socks that say the truth. I also think they like great posters that know how to post. And I think good posting is the ultimate medicine we can take here. If we can post a funny post, if we can post well, if we can post well down the stretch, I think FB'ers love to forgive you.

Swing and a miss.

I have been reading to the Wee Slothrops from D'Aulaire's Book of Greek Myths, and I am afraid that I am giving them some funny ideas, particular re Zeus and his divine promiscuity. A couple nights ago, he was shagging Io and then turning her into a heifer. The next night, he's with Leto, who gets chased all over the Earth by Hera while she's pregnant. Then Athena is springing from Zeus' head. I am waiting for a call from the elementary school.

Did you move to Kansas? Because all of that sounds pretty normal for where you live.
