...Kendall Square, got wrecked over what seemed like a 25-course dinner, had the most intense conversation of my life with her dad—who created “Family Ties”—which ended in him regrettably allowing me to call myself Neilesh P. Keaton. Then I went to Daedalus, received rare accolades from William Levine [’04], came back to my room, drunk-called my mom and passed out—but not before graffiti-ing my walls with a Sharpie...
...hottest girl in town. Maybe you’re not the nicest guy in the world but, hey, you’re a big-shot basketball player with the hottest girl in town; people should cut you some slack. Now along comes this once-humble and talentless Alex P. Keaton lookalike who is turning himself into a werewolf all over the place.

These "fables" all have the same lesson: Life is absurd...

But this year famous women are wearing ties because they're "strong, distinctive and sexy," in the words of one fashion marketer--and because other famous women are wearing them. The accessory has come a long way from Diane Keaton's tomboy outfit in Woody Allen's 1977 film, Annie Hall. Young pop singers from Michelle Branch to Alicia Keys have adopted an '80s new-wave look that juxtaposes ties with dark punk garb or ultra-casual white tank tops. And fashion designers like Alexander McQueen have been slipping them...
