Incidentally, I’m not overly worried that my discussion of duds is going to personally offend anyone. The egos at Harvard are so big that even the most degenerate of duds will not self-identify as such. Quite the contrary, in fact.

...upbeat reality was overlooked last week as a new act in this ongoing battle for the soul of Mississippi played out just down the road from Eight Flags. At a small auditorium in Pascagoula, a besieged Senator Lott apologized for the fifth time that he didn't meant to offend anybody by his offhanded remarks at Strom Thurmond's 100th birthday party. The entire national media had arrived en masse to cover yet another civil rights-related story in Mississippi.
