...EVER TALK SHOP WITH YOUR HUSBAND [KENTUCKY SENATOR AND MAJORITY WHIP MITCH MCCONNELL]? No, we're much too busy. We both love what we're doing. When we have time together, we talk about college football, about getting together with our friends--the usual kind of stuff--[like] who takes out the garbage...

...love Ravi and Alexa for the candids that they took of our FM tenure (like late night dance parties) and the scathing (read: hilarious) criticism they gave of our content. Sample convo: “This Chris and Chris column is retarded. Can someone find us a whip, some handcuffs, and, like, maybe some whipped cream?” (Yes, yes we can.) Ravi, Cheshire-Cat smile permanent, led us in sexy photo shoots and insisted that Matthew R. Conroy ’07 be named on the masthead as Matt Cornroy. Alexa, all class, brought a little...

With Tennessee's Bill Frist set to retire in 2006, Kentucky's Mitch McConnell seems a shoo-in for majority leader, but Lott could win the No. 2 post--that of majority whip. Why? Because at a time when George W. Bush is faltering, it's hip to be a White House outsider. The President ensured Lott's ouster in 2002, and relations between the two have never been the same. Just last month Lott made headlines by suggesting top presidential adviser Karl...

FRANZ FERDINAND YOU COULD HAVE IT SO MUCH BETTER From the opening chords -- played in glorious, fuzzy mono--of Franz Ferdinand's much hyped follow-up, it is clear this band has a surplus of confidence. The guitars are faster and louder, and the lyrics just as whip-smart as on its debut. You know the band is getting better because the love songs (Walk Away, Eleanor Put Your Boots On) have the courage to be pretty, while the snarling punk-disco romps (Well That Was Easy, I'm Your Villain) codify the lads' idea of losers (the dull, prudish...
