Wanda: I liked you better as a chauvinist pig, husband of mine. Your argument has only one minor flaw, Ralph: it's totally wrong. There is no clitoral party line, though easily threatened males may think so. The clitoris ! is the normal center of women's sexuality, and it is not our fault that it happens to be located in a spot that men find inconvenient. I bet that the article in the Journal of Sex & Marital Therapy is just more woolgathering about the G spot...
...Rogosin Institute, Lewis became a guinea pig in an experimental treatment program. Once a week he would drive to the hospital to undergo a procedure called LDL-pheresis, a filtering process that removes from the blood the most dangerous form of cholesterol, known as LDL (for low-density lipoprotein). Now, after a year of treatments, Lewis is remarkably improved. His once crippling angina is "almost nonexistent," he reports.

...carefully watched and reported the small workings of nature, nothing that White wrote is very far removed from the central subject of life and death. In the long run, if there is one, Charlotte's Web should overshadow any number of manifestos. The story of how Wilbur the pig was saved by the unusual weaving skills of Charlotte the spider has taught countless children, many of them now middle-aged, how to weep and exult at the same moment. Wilbur's tribute to his departed benefactor bears repeating, with a nod to the man who created them both...
