...some people, usually women, that there are qualities to be admired in certain celebrated athletes. Watching, say, Lleyton Hewitt, many struggle to see past the scowling and the obnoxious self-exhortations to the traits that lifted a little trier to the peak of tennis. While most Australians preferred Steve Waugh to Hewitt, many couldn't warm to the cricketer, either. Grim and prickly, Waugh eschewed elegance for efficiency and good manners for a competitive edge.

...ball popped up in front of the net, and junior forward Gretchen Fuller shot the ball past Darmouth goalie Lauren Balukjian at the 14:01 mark to give Harvard a 1-0 lead.

Well, who got us back in the series? Tugger was dead to me after he said that. He's from Bankstown. Votes Liberal. Not a real Westie...
...offices of Burma Airways, as in every other office, there are no typewriters, let alone computer terminals, just bulky Dickensian ledgers thick with dust. The country boasts two TV stations, but neither of them broadcasts for more than two hours a day. If Burma did not exist, Evelyn Waugh would have had to invent...
