The Quadrangle Dilemma didn't go over so well (except with starry_eyed!) so here's one I think you'll all like better:
BOB'S FOOTBALL PRACTICE DILEMMA
(from Bob Pollard's philosophical corner, "What I've Learned," in the Jan/Feb '05 Magnet and May/June '05 Utne Reader)
"My good friend Billy Dixon was my center in football from 7th grade through 12th grade. One day during practice, our head coach yelled, "If anybody sees anybody standing around with his thumb up his ass doing nothing, run over and knock him on his ass." Five minutes later, Coach was standing on the sidelines drinking a cup of coffee. Billy ran over and knocked him on his ass. I learned that day that, for the most part, we're all just standing around with our thumbs up our asses."

Yes, I agree, they just don't make scandal's like they use to.

I turned the heat on last night and cranked it up to 80. That's what I call warm. Warmer than before? Yes, but not warm enough for this princess.
