with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi
My friend Clive, a business and technology journalist, is seeking US men, ages 20-40, to interview for a Details article on "why don't guys today save like their parents did?" If you are, or know, a guy that age with low savings and/or a lot of debt, and would be willing to be interviewed, please e-mail him -- clive at clivethompson dot net -- and tell him Misha sent you.
Confidentiality is no problem -- "I'm happy to let people be anonymous," he says.

Apartment-ma to me please? I applied for a place tonight, and would really like to get it, since applying for it meant I turned down another place! Plus, ya know, good apartment.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
WHOO HOOOO
I got my GRE scores back -- the math and english I had, but the analytical writting - I had no idea. I got better than the score I needed which thrills me. It has been a long time since I have written more than a skimpy paragraph. But I go teh score that siad minor gramatical flaws, but understandable. Could have expanded ideas a bit more.
