Drinking water should be a gloriously guilt-free activity. H2O won't make you fat, give you cancer or stain your teeth a revolting shade of yellow. It's second only to soda as the American beverage of choice, ever since marketers thought to package it for us in handy plastic bottles. But now the green lobby informs us we may as well be clubbing baby seals with our Evian bottles, so great is the environmental havoc wreaked by their manufacture and disposal. Some resourceful consumers have taken to reusing the containers multiple times; others have switched to reusable water...
...explicitly state. Does he really believe--as he seems to--that aerial bombing is on a moral continuum with Nazi genocide? And that Adolf Hitler's hatred of Jews is comparable to Churchill's hatred of the Germans and Japanese? (We get Mrs. Churchill calling them "Nazi hogs" and "yellow Japanese lice" in a letter?)

Panels also depicted the mushhushshu, a dragon-like creature covered in scales - its front legs feline, its hind legs belonging to a bird of prey, its tail resembling a scorpion's stinger...
...seen since Madonna strode around in a cone bra. More surprisingly, I do not hate it; I love it with a wild and untamed passion. Balenciaga is showing an entire line of highly architectural minidresses in disparate floral prints. Gucci is showing a collection with gigantic white and yellow flowers on diaphanous black backgrounds. The effect is utterly modern and chic and does not remind me even slightly of the horrible florals of my youth. How can the women of Harvard pull off florals without looking like Six, while at the same time trying to seduce Joey Lawrence? The answer...
