...overall, it was a lovely affair to remember. Stag attendees were in the minority, as dance floor participants consisted of couples dry-humping and making out to a barely recognizable Soulja Boy. Props to Cabot and Pfoho for a well planned and executed (p)formal. Too bad Cabot isn't speaking to its superimposed neighbor anymore after Pfoho made off with the remaining $800 worth of alcohol at the sweaty night...
...Actual Retail Price: Any Ec major will tell you, workers involuntarily doing part-time hours is just as bad as unemployment. It's also a great way to save money without the public stigma of firing people. Oh yeah, we're not offering new jobs. Sorry, SLAM...
...coach massaged pro egos better than Daly, who won 638 games over 13 NBA seasons. Just look at Daly's Bad Boys, the thuggish band of Detroit Pistons who elbowed, kicked, brawled, their way to back-to-back NBA titles in 1989 and 1990.

He knew the Pistons fed off Laimbeer's antics, so go ahead Bill, be an a--hole. Daly...
...bad news? Despite many hints that he wanted a to create a big tent government, Zuma apparently failed to persuade former trade union leader turned billionaire Cyril Ramaphosa to take a position. Ramaphosa is an ANC heavyweight. Many see him as the ANC President that never was (he was Nelson Mandela's preferred successor; the job went to Mbeki instead). The corporate sector, which admires his accumulative skills, would have seen his inclusion as further reassurance. Still, Ramaphosa has been out of South Africa's political scene for a long time. A cabinet position would have been something; his absence...
