...really had nothing to bitch about. I'd missed most of the game, sitting in my living room, beer and cigars, the Pointer Sisters rolling out of the stereo, and my nth game of solitaire in full swing. I'd spent my Sunday dilettanting my way around the dial. By 6:30 I'd seen two quarters of football and six innings of baseball on Channel 4, as well as four of Harold Jackson's TD's on Channel...
...Battle for Argos [Aug. 27]. Though it is true, as David DeVoss reports, that we Marine Corps reservists bitch and moan, the men did a hell of a job working with the regulars on this operation.

Glamor, I was discovering, signalled at Harvard a licensed free-for-all for aggressive attention. Be it jealousy or secret sex dreams, contempt just depended on the particular form of the particular insecurity. Glamor got attention all right. Glamor meant a presence to be dealt with, to be talked about, gossiped about, pigeon-holed, and dismissed with a movie magazine's form of voyeurism...
