...they infiltrated the body-building world in the '70s and Hollywood a decade later, steroids created bodies for mass consumption that the world had literally never seen before. Pope likes to chart the changes by looking at Mr. America winners, which he called up on the Internet in his office last week. "Look at this guy," Pope exclaims when he clicks on the 1943 winner, Jules Bacon. "He couldn't even win a county body-building contest today." Indeed, there are 16-year-olds working out at your gym who are as big as Bacon. Does that necessarily mean that...

...consider dormcest a crime. "He doesn't care. He does a lot of talking with everybody as far as relationships go. He's a great guy." Gahan's response to the abundance of beneficial relationships, "I said to love each other, but not this much," even appears on the chart itself. Dormcest, floorcest even--heck, why not? Might as well enjoy the neighbors before the year ends. With first-years eyeing their new Houses, the post-break-up problems of intra-dorm relations wash away. Until then the Pack will keep juices flowing and the doors locked...
