...totally depressing exercise. These four years have been packed with strikeouts, weak dribblers up the middle, blown saves, and even a few caught stealings, none of which are baseball metaphors. So we try to only concentrate on this last year when we ruled the school with both an open door and an iron fist. But that makes us seem even more terrible, especially since we wouldn’t tell anyone about the 18-inch iron fist until they had come through our open door and we had locked it behind them...

...leave you underclassmen in the hands of two kids who carry more currency in the form of expired Subway Club Cards than cash in their wallets.

Before he could get serious about running, however, he would have to come to terms with the scars of 2000 and accept the possibility that he could lose again in 2008. That prospect may be too much to bear. "If he ran, there's no question in my mind that he would be elected," says Steve Jobs.

...Gaza is unlikely to abate anytime soon, and locals complain that the government has abandoned them. "People in Tel Aviv can sleep at night but we don?t have this option," said Limor Aflalo, a 35-year-old beautician whose home was damaged by a rocket that struck next door. Aflalo and her husband would like to take their two daughters and leave the town, but they said it would be impossible to sell their home. "I don?t know what the solution is, but the government should tell us what to do and we?ll do it," she said...
