...cheesy look of the skin above the fat layer many women find on their hips, thighs and derriere. (Men tend not to suffer from this perceived problem because their thicker skin does a better job of covering fat.) Women have resorted to surgery, massage, potions, pills and creams to smooth their skin, resulting in temporary relief at best. So can clothing succeed where more extreme efforts have failed...
...disagree with your portrayal of Edwards as "the Natural" choice to be Kerry's running mate. My pick for the natural person to hold high elective office is President George W. Bush.

So well executed an exercise it turned out to be that...

More than just a wife and the mother of his kids, she's the gravitational force that keeps his feet on the ground, the buffer between the man she knows and the political commodity he's become. Early in the Democratic primaries, when the candidate's schedule called for him to perform the photo-op ritual of flipping pork burgers at the Iowa State Fair, Elizabeth nixed the idea as too phony. Later, when she felt the ads produced...
