...would choose pain, misanthropy and terrible luck as the recurring themes of a life, but Merritt has at least put his misery to excellent use. He is the great tragicomic songwriter of his age--equal parts Cole Porter and Charlie Brown--and love is his unkickable football. "Maybe it's being gay," says Merritt, "but for me, everything related to love is so awkward, it's automatically funny. Just the idea of love is embarrassing to me.

"She doesn't eat," Ashta says. "We don't know if she'll recover or if she will die." The Sudanese government has promised to observe a cease-fire in Darfur, and recently allowed U.S. officials...
Then in the top of the 13th, Kimmy Hopkin popped up to Goldberg and Jenna Macchi walked. Jacqui Goodchild sent a sacrifice drag bunt to Goldberg, who threw her out at first. With two outs, Britney Thompson walked, and Obrest again inflicted pain on the Crimson, tattooing a shot to left center that one hopped the fence and scored Macchi. With runners on second and third, Erin Mackey singled to center and drove in both Thompson and Obrest, giving the Eagles the final 5-2 margin...
