In other news, and right up your alley or something - high school students are better liars now.

ATLANTA - Fewer U.S. high school students are having sex, and the ones who do are less likely to have multiple partners, according to a report issued Thursday by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Some 46.8 percent of students said they engaged in sexual intercourse in a 2005 survey, down from 54.1 percent in 1991, according to the report.

Some 14.3 percent of students in 2005 said they have had multiple partners, defined as sex with four different people during one’s lifetime. That figure is down from 18.7 percent in 1991.

The report was published ahead of the 16th International AIDS conference, billed as the world’s largest, which starts Aug. 13 in Toronto, Canada.

I guess that answers the question of what happened to the former Cravath benefits attorney.

I don't mind them taking confiscated items for their personal use as long as they report it on their income taxes.

Unopened items -- charitable deduction for people who had to give it up. Opened items -- income to people who take it, but value very low on e.g. partially used liquid makeup. I think Ebay could provide valuation assistance.

I'm appalled that you have confused me with Sebby.




The lining is torn.

Given your distinct online personae, I really can't believe the mistake.

By the way, I have never been clear on why you call him Raaaaaooouullll.

If I can't take my Chapstick on the plane w/me, I'm not flying.

2. In a pinch, you could use Chapstick as moisturizer or cuticle cream, although I don't think it would be a good sub for astroglide.

He used to use Raoul Duke as his screen name, but he put extra vowels in it for some reason and it looked really hugely stupid. And he was a big asshole back then. Marriage and baby have mellowed him.

I can´t be bothered to read all the posts I missed over the last couple days, so I may miss some board inuendo about this but ...

why do different airports have different rules? Shoes on, shoes off. Laptop out of the bag, laptop in. Show your boarding pass to security, or not. If a brilliant mind at TSA has determined that taking my laptop out of the bag somehow enables them to better determine wheter it is really filled with Semtex, then shouldn´t they send out a missive that tells the high school drop-out with a magic wand who used to make fun of me for knowing four-syllable words to enforce a rule regarding laptops or not? And, if they haven´t determined that the machines are somehow confounded by a nylon shoulder bag, why do they allow these Cletuses to make up their own shit as they go along?

Less (if I had a rocket launcher some son of a bitch would die) in Madrid

I heard a TSA person interviewed on NPR this morning and they indicated that the rule is laptops should be removied from the bag before presenting it to security. So the ridiculing drop-outs that don't do it are the extra-lax ones.

I hope this shit has blown over before I go to Europe in October.

Even before yesterday, I have always (in last few years) had to remove laptop from bag before it goes through screening. So it seems like no change on laptop rule.

I'm a checker, not a carrier-oner. But I like having water and hand lotion and moisturizer and makeup with me. And astroglide.

Yeah, but it does wonders for a chapped ass.

Stop wearing chaps in dry/windy weather and your ass won't get so chapped.

Agreed, I think the laptop rule is from the post-9/11 phase.

What I'm most unhappy about in the current rules is not being able to carry water onto the plane. I've learned that one way to minimize jet lag is by keeping hydrated and air travel is very drying. I even take large bottles of water with me on shuttle flights so I dread the idea of an overseas flight at the mercy of the flight attendants and crappy-tasting water.

On longer trips, I've learned from my mother to carry-on the things you absolutely need if your luggage gets lost.

If the airlines managed to be more efficient with the luggage transportation piece (i.e., not lose it and make sure it arrives relatively quickly on the carousels), people wouldn't all be trying to cram steamer trunks into the overhead compartments (TM Taxwonk).

I read otherwise in a certain someone's blog.

A few here wouldn't mind seeing you garroted... I think I misspelled gavotte.

Agreed. I think this is formerly-treaded territory on this board. I have about 50 or so lip balms. I like at least one to be within arm's reach at all times. If the airlines expect me to give up lip balm and water, I will be one cranky customer.

For water, I am hoping that I can bring an empty bottle on, then ask the flight attendant to fill it with water out of her bottle. Then I will be able to fly. It's either that or I will be bugging her to fill my glass every 10 minutes or so. I'm kind of a nut about flying with plenty of water.
