...Strauss typed and edited what I was saying into complete sentences, strumming my pain with his fingers, I lay on a couch by his pool watching chickens walk in and out of the house - a result of Strauss's survivalist training, which he also wrote a book about. And he wrote the definitive pickup book, The Game, so his very hot young girlfriend Ghita walked around in tiny white boy shorts, acting as our proofreader.

...Harvard men’s water polo team dropped back-to-back games at home this weekend. On Saturday, in the conference final against Fordham, the Crimson (5-16, 3-3 CWPA) lost 12-7. Less than 24 hours later, Harvard was in the pool again to face St. Francis College (10-3) in the last game before the CWPA Northern Division Championships on Nov. 7.

This fungibility argument shifted the issue from direct federal funding of abortion to indirect funding. And eliminating indirect funding of abortion is a nearly impossible standard to meet. Taxpayers already subsidize abortions through the tax break given to employers for sponsoring company-insurance plans, and technically any employer that receives a government grant...
